I've noticed some caddy ones here and there. Just waiting for some to come up at the right price! I'm close to wigan dude, Arosa is looking cool!I was goign to buy a Arosa in this colour from a dealer in preston. But When I test drove it and the breaks failed, I walked away!We test drove a Green lupo in Bradford. That was awful, brakes where shocking on that too! I think next im going to look into some -40mm lowering springs to keep me happy until i can afford coilovers.Adam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabbles21 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I have Weitec lowering springs, Theyre a 40/40ish kit. Very impressed with them (not that I have anything to compare them with) but give a bit of modest lowering and sharpen up turning and braking.Jake.

YvanOn3 Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Very nice ! Adam save some money and install the complete suspension kit. When I installed my suspension kit I will inform about the advantages.In Spain I paid 180€ about 155pounds last week for the complete FK kit ( 35-40mm lowering springs+ sport coilover )Cheers.

Adam R4 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Cleaning has been at the top of the to do list recently!Managed to clean atleast 10mm deep of crap out of the rear arches...Cleaned out a damp and hairy spare wheel well.The dog hairs continued through to underneath the back seats, cleaned in there too!Also took the scuttle panel off as i spied some leafs, worse than i expected...still not really clean but it'll do for now.Its had the usual attention of in the door shuts and every nook and cranny i can get into, replaced plenty of disfigured rusty screws aswell!Next up I want some Cambridge rears and a de-badge.Cheers all, Adam.

onkobonko Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I need some information on the black centre caps like these if anybody could help me out...Does anybody know if they will fit in the 14" wheel? (i.e. the diameter of the centre cap as a whole.)And ive also read that items like these can still be purchased off your local VW dealer, can anybody confirm this?Cheers all. AdamIm 99% certain that you can also get the same caps but with Seat centre badges, they were fitted to the Inca Van. I'll get you the part number tomorrow...

Adam R4 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Got my Lupo rear lights in tonight!I got my dad to modify a standard lupo plug and wires. Simple spades on the end of the wires for a plug and play system.Got the O/S light in and wired up...Removed the N/S and gave it a clean like the otherside...Looks Muchos better now!!Next up a de-badge and when it properly becomes summer a de-wiper.

Brother_Will Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Looking good, i like that plug and play loom for the lights, you could probably make a nice little bit of extra dosh selling those, i know i would have had one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam R4 Posted May 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) its just basically the plug and part of the loom cut from a lupo, spades and heat shrink on the end. Easier than having to re-wire the plug and connects easily to the wires that you need to take from each side.
