Scott-Thomson Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hi all, My Name is Scott Thomson and im from Stranraer, Scotland (Dumfries & Galloway). Been on here snooping around for maybe a month or two, but not really posted much. Ive not had my Lupo long, but ive gotta say...im hooked Its a Y reg Flash Red 1.0 SE, with only 42k on the clock. First purchases were,the usual LED sidelights, numberplate lights, aero wipers, small aerial etc..Then i got me a set of AP Coilovers Picture Time Also, bought a set of VW Le Castallet's from the Marketplace on here, cant remember the chaps name (my inbox has been emptied ) But what a pleasure to do business with , anyway, i have started to buff down the wheels and polish them to a mirror finish and they are coming up beautifully will need to get a teaser snap of them so far.Thanks,Scott.

Scott_Thomson Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Thanks guys Not really got any plans as such apart from the wheels, although i would love some new leather seats, the standard ones dont really seem to hug you lol. Give me some ideas what i could do my main aim is to keep it looking clean Thanks, Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesTdi Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Get some OEM wheels on it, will be onto a winner then!Do you scrape much ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Thomson Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 As i said, im in the process of polishing vw le castalletes my fingers are sooo smooth lol.Nope, dont scrape or scrub at all, theres only one place in my whole town that i get a little scrape and that is a kinda double recess at the entrance to a local car park, and its only the front mudflaps that catch it. Could probably be sorted with stanley blade treatment lolScott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Thomson Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 Correct me if im wrong, but, shouldnt my Lupo have Cambridge lights ?, It is an SE Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez1990 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I think the lights were a optional extra could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott_Thomson Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Not got much to update, but the camera was out for a wee while.

Scott_Thomson Posted November 19, 2011 Report Share Posted November 19, 2011 Got fed up of the castelletes and havnt managed to finish them, only one left to do though!, but ended up getting another set of wheels. Been going about with VW Softlines on front and ATS Cups on the back, Reason being, to keep me legal lol, previous softlines wer worn through to the wire so swapped the ones from the back onto the front and had to borrow wheels from a mate for a while and ended up buying them until i got the castelletes finished...but then spotted a set of...Yess...Borbets...15" x 7" ET38 Over the moon with them.What you's think ?Also, did the white Lupo belong to anyone on here?Thanks,Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott_Thomson Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 (edited) Loving this! Could come down a touch at the back though Yeah i would to take the rear adjusters out but just dont know if the arch lip would need rolled or not....scared the paint will crack ScottFeel free to give me some ideas what to do next. Noticed on one of the above photos that the rear drums could do with a lick of paint, think thats next Would also like a GTi spoiler, struggling to get one though.
