hunid-brake Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Hello all,Regrettably; and i know people always use that word but it really is upsetting :'( i am going to be selling my Lupo Gti in the coming weeks. Ive had the car for over 2 years and used it as a daily from 20k on the clock to its current 65k. Im going to be doing an even higher millage now and the time has come to get something more practical. I love this car so much ill probably cry when it goes but i thought id gauge interest as unlike most, i actually care where this car is going and i want it to find a nice home where its giving the care and attention ive bestowed upon it.Im going to type the spec down with all the work ive had done. Most importantly please note that how you want the spec is entirely up to the eventual buyer. Some parts are variable and can be swapped for standard if preferred. 02 plate (1st registered Jan 03)6 Speed65,000 miles (will change as daily)1 previous ownerReflex SilverFull service history and lots and lots of receipts for all consumables and work carried outImmaculate cloth interiorOriginal Red trim Gti floor mats in good nik"GTI" chrome door sill protectorsRear aero wiper conversionRear Cambridge lights (with orange internal indicator bits removed and specialist bulbs)Black VW badges front and backRed bead front grill trimAnniversary Gti front badgeKW V1 Inox fully adjustable coil overs (can be swapped for standard suspension)Immaculate 15" Red BBS cross spokes, 1 piece, refurbed 2 months ago (black with red bead 15" multi spoke can be put on if preferred)Front and back Black Diamond drilled and grooved brake discs (fast road) with Black Diamond Predator pads all roundGoodridge braided brake linesJanspeed full cat back stainless exhaust systemBMC CDA air filter plumbed in with integral pipe for oil breather (can be swapped for standard air box if preferred)PIAA top spec halogens and LED side lights to match the beautiful xenonsAlmost brand new tyres all round (firestone)Just being MOT'd todayFull service next weekTaxed till end of JulyIve had the cambelt done twice since ive owned it (last done 8 months ago)15mm Hub centric rear wheel spacers (can be removed if preferred)Bee sting ally aerialThe car looks amazing and gets washed every week, polished in the summer months to give it a fantastic shine. The car has been photographed by "Fast Car Magazine" at local meets and really turns heads for the right reasons. I owned a Lupo Sport before this and always wanted the Gti. Ive been a member of the club since my first Lupo and the club website gets a small slot on rear windows. Whenever any work has needed doing or parts have needed replacing ive bought the best i could afford or spent the most i could, money never an issue ive always wanted the best for this car. Unfortunately my already large journey to work is now getting longer and i need another car for these journeys.This is the best car ive ever owned and will always remain in my heart as my dream car. Gutted to let it go and ill probably regret it when it does.Ill be 100% honest there is a small scuff on the rear nearside arch where some goon scraped it but it isnt huge and car be repaired very easily and cheaply (i may do this before i sell). There is also a 5mm stone chip on the bonnet. Ive sealed/primed/ and painted in it and its barely noticeable. There is no rust on the car, no dents! and no noticeable scratches anywhere. Polishes up a beaut!Ok so depending on whether or not the buyer wants the suspension/BMC CDA and rims im looking for....£5000For pictures please see my build thread next to my signature on this post Any questions please dont hesitate to askLet me know if you are potentially interested Based near Plymouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
