Hakster Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) Hi everyone, just picked up my new Lupo this w/e. She's a stunner, immaculate all round and low mileage for her age.Got all the extra's; Heated leather seats, air con...Also has a few mods already; Cambridge rear lights, H&R lowering suspension.Got a few mods planned but want to keep her as standard as possible for a year or so. So here's a list of "secret" mods in the hope that the missus doesn't clock-on http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/thumbup.gif1) Red strip for front grill (ordered)2) Seat covers (ordered but don't fit http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/confused.gif )3) Raise the exhaust so it tucks in nicelyHer's a pic of my old car (VW Golf Mk4 R32), unfortunaltely was stolen a couple of months back and has still not been found, long gone...Thanks for looking, suggestions/comments welcome.Hakan Edited September 9, 2013 by Hakster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaddyC Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 (edited) Oh yes, finally one thats not going to be abused by having the suspension arms hanging out of it Looks a very tidy clean example thats for sure! Heated leather? Whats the mileage on it? Edited April 15, 2012 by DaddyC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hakster Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 You can see from my iPhone picture locations the rough trip we took:Went on many autobahns... One time I went up to 120mph but I'm not a very speedy person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hakster Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Got too many sets of wheels, not sure what to do now really...2 lots of BBS RM's - 6.5j ET331 set of O.Z splits from a TVR Wedge - 8j ET20Think I might sell the BBS's and keep the o.z's as a little project, they need some custom centre caps made up, I will want to fit them to the Lupo eventually but need a lot of work to get them on. They're 5 stud so will need adapters, and might need a little skimming on the faces to get them to fit nicely... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hakster Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 How much would you want for a set of those rm's?I think I'm gonna put them on eBay tomorrow, maybe being a bit optimistic with the price for the lot at just under a grand.

Hakster Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 hakan lord of rims, know of any half decent rims going cheaply that need refurbing?Depends what type of wheel you're after really, either ebay.co.uk or http://www.wheel-whores.com/classifieds is where you'll find a lot of wheels in need of some TLC. Or if you're a bit braver you can do what I do and source them from ebay.de.Hakan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
