lupoluke Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Been nearly 3 years since i got rid of my lupo, the plan was to get a g40 or corrado but with the current insurance prices it looks like its going to be yet another year, and im now bored of my GT`d polo so i quite fancy another lupo especially with the £30 a year road tax and high mpg.My budget probably won`t strech to a decent lupo tdi but it will to the cheaper tramps inferior version being a seat arosa or 6n2 .Im aware they share the common problems with the windows ect and that the amf doesnt have the dual mass fly so thats one less thing to worry about,just a few questions reallyAre there any other engines used in these that use a dual mass fly ?Do these have a chocolate gear box as most seem to have been replaced at some point?How do they cope with milage as i have seen a 6n2 i like on 170K and an arosa at just over 100k ? And what do they go like after a remap ?Any other issues (been a while since i have been near these cars) ?And finally are the MPG claims true up to 70mpg seems to good to be true ?I did have a search as i could recall reading a definitive buyers guide many moons ago but i couldn`t seem to find it.I did also consider a an sdi as they go for a lot less, but i want something that does 0-60 in less than a week Any info would be greatRegards Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupoluke Posted December 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 Ah i never thought id see my self in a derv, its a bit daunting tbh but for the cost it`d make a cheap daily so i could fund a silly ****box project to waste money on.

Guest Romero Posted December 25, 2011 Report Share Posted December 25, 2011 It is not fair that everybody knows about cialis super active, Kamagra Soft worked perfectly for me and moreover it is less expensive and easier to find. I almost have not experienced any side effects, at least those severe to make sex impossible. Works like a charm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JampotJamie Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I've never actually seen or heard a tdi in person. Do they sound like tractors? Or are they fairly quiet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 a bit tractorish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiea7x Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 they do tbh, but at travelling speeds you barely hear them from inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartagram Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I've only had a brief go in one but nice torquey little motor in it. Plus I do always get told to "enjoy my bad mpg" off Rich. So that suggests he gets exceptional MPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lupoluke Posted April 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I ended up with a 6n2 tdi, stupidly economical iv gone from spending £60 a week to about £20, going to get in awesome soon to unleash the torque Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
