I've finally decided to sell my 2001 Black Lupo GTI simply because i'm just not using it anymore after getting a work vehicle and bike last year. I've owned it since February 2010 (67k miles) and used it daily until my new work vehicle arrived late 2010. Since then i've hung on to it for as long as possible (now approx 81k miles) but feel its wasted on my drive only getting the odd outing and think its time someone else got the chance to enjoy it as much as I have.

Its been by far my favourite car I've owned being surprisingly fast for such a small engine, handles like nothing else and is cheap to run. I have spared no expense since buying it which can be seen from every receipt i've had during ownership. She's always warmed up properly and never filled up with anything but v-power petrol.

I appreciate modifications are a personal thing but the majority of the work i have done to this car are improvements and upgrades to original parts and most can be returned to standard easily and cheaply. I have many of the original parts and spares including the full original airbox and ducting and Lupo Gti front brake callipers which can be included if the price is right.

I've replaced countless parts, small and large on what has been my pride and joy since I bought her to keep her in the best condition possible. Dale (Lupoboz) can vouch for the large amount of parts I have purchased through himself along with the impressive service history and large amount of receipts which I have collected as well as many from the previous owner.

The weitec coilover kit was fitted at a cost of over £600 in april 2011 and can be fully adjusted to suit. I bought the wheels brand new sep 2010 which have not one kerb mark but a few marks from salt on the roads.

Bad points:

  • Personally I think the paintwork is the only thing that shows the cars age, there are stone chips on the front end and several small scratches.
  • Both doors microswitches (that turn interior light on when doors are opened) seem to be not working, I can possibly look into that when the weather improves.
  • Pulls slightly to left I suspect tracking needs adjustment
  • Interior was retrofitted and does not have the heated seats working although loom and switches are included

Hopefully someone can continue to look after her like I have and enjoy this fun little car. She never fails to turns heads and is becoming increasingly rare, I definitely would not hesitate to buy another in the future.

Private reg not included in sale.

I have loads of extra photos and information that I can email if needed, just ask.
