chris260 Posted July 27, 2012 Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 The blue lupo on black wheels, think I saw that on eBay for saleYeah i think it's been up for a while, i can't understand why it hasn't sold unless it's just up for too much cash. I'd have probably bought it back if i hadn't got the GTI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koop Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 Not had many as although I'm an old git I didn't pass my test til I was 252005 - Ford Fiesta Mk3 1L - wouldn't have one now, but a great first car2005 - Citroen AX 950cc - actually surprisingly awesome, pretty bloody nippy if there was no more than 2 people in the car & no steep hills Gearbox was amazing, short throw stick & really smooth. And pockets in the doors just the right size for a bottle of wine - French design at its best 2006 - Renault Clio Mk4 1.4 - AKA 'the french piece of ****', hated it, seats were really uncomfortable & hurt my back - my Lupo is better for my back & it's on its arse! Understeered like a bitch. Only kept it for so long as we were stuck with the finance. 2011 - VW Lupo 1.4 S - now we're talking, my first dub, fell in love. Proper go kart driving again, like the AX. Ended up with whitewalls & loads of custom vinyl. Sold to fund....2012 - VW Lupo 1.4 Sport - the current hwip, decked & bombed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skezza Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) When stationary?You wouldnt survive that in a 106Honestly bud, I'll find the photos when I can, she was in a fairly modern Vauxhall and she was certainly going fast.To be fair, I say 60mph because that was the speed of the road but I assume at some point she might have slowed down, even though she was clearly not paying attention. That said, she didn't appear to slow down much when she smashed into the back of me. Certainly didn't feel like it either!

JoeA Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 106s are actually solid my mate (in a c2) drove into one of my other mates (in a 1992 106) the 106 lost some bumper paint. The c2 was 1000 worth of damage.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 106s are actually solid my mate (in a c2) drove into one of my other mates (in a 1992 106) the 106 lost some bumper paint. The c2 was 1000 worth of damage..Oh her car was a real mess, total write off, aside from things like seats, maybe some of the dash etc, I doubt there was much they could save elsewhere (nothing from the engine, body or chassis I reckon) and yet I'd say a lot of the 106 was still salvageable but I don't know if they are allowed to under the category crash system. If a certain amount of damage has been done, they are legally required to crush the car don't they ? I don't know exactly but I hope some of it was salvaged as it was a great car and the engine was in mint condition, I hadn't modified it at all and it only had 70k miles. Drove beautifully to be honest, especially for a cheap car. The funny part was, after the crash I could see she'd hit her head and was dazing so I jumped out the car to check if she was okay. When I got back in the 106 about 5 minutes later, despite being slammed in the back and being thrown down the road (not literally but there was a fair trail of mess behind my car because I moved quite a long way), the engine was still running lol!! It wasn't really driveable because the chassis was totally warped, but I reckon lumped in a new chassis, that 106 engine would be fine. Plus it had really nice seats and what not.

jpsh120 Posted December 11, 2012 Report Share Posted December 11, 2012 Good post, always interesting to see how people have progressed up the motoring ladder! Here's a selection from my archive...First car (I know it doesn't look much but it was a good reliable car)!Then about 6 months into my first paid job with the money burning a hole I bought myself a Golf GTI,Had a few problems in 3 years but it ended up like this;Traded up for a run out Mk2 16v, I can't find any pictures but it was like this one apart from single headlight de-badged grille and lowered;Kept that for 6 years of trouble free motoring then fancied a change;Only had this for 2 years due to moving house and that also meant a stop gap motor (Laguna - another 3 years of trouble free motoring tho).Had this as a toy along the way (now sold);And this is my current daily;And for those of us from an older generation last but not least, my oldest but still owned to this day (been in the family since 1979); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Dad had a MK3 or MK4 back in the late '60s.I used to love it!Thanks, I have grown up with this car and can't see us ever being parted!! I have been doing some resto work on the old girl, she's not been on the road since 2006, hopefully back for the 2013 show season.
