Yo guys my names joe and I've just bought a 2000 reg lupo

Got it for 350 and it needs a new oil pump and that's it.

I think it's a bargain as it was fully resprayed 9 months ago and has a toad alarm fitted.

My plans are to slam it on some metallic purple Porsche teledials and then a few extras as I go along.

Here's the one rubbish pic I have at the mo.

This is way louder than the mg ever was. Last meet I peaked at 151.9db and that was without anyone holding the doors to keep pressure in lol.

Looking forward to your progress too mate. Get it done. One thing is for sure, parts are easier and cheaper to get than mg so big bonus

Well had a bit of a weird one,

Changed the oil pump and had a check on pressure again still no pressure up top end "****".

Whipped off the head to have a look at the oil ways thinking it may be coked up, but no it has a paper type thing in there look a little closer and it's only the bloody oil filter internals so yes my cars is a oil filter eater, my mates boss has said in the 30 years of him being a mechanic he has never seen that.

But now it has a new oil pump, new cambelt, new water pump, full new top end gaskets, new head bolts. It's now at my mates garage being put back together and mot'd

So there's light at the end of the tunnel :)

Cheers

Jesus I haven't done much in a while but here's a few updates.

I bought another lupo a fantasia green one running 170 Bhp and sold it for parts this is hat became of it..

I did start cutting it in half to make into a trailer but I've got too much on my hands at the moment and not got the space really.

So the other few bits I've done it finally sorted out the 4x4ness of it..

Lupo got low.

But with low you need some wheels right..

So snapped these up..

I'm really happy with how they fit with the adaptors and gonna get some nice stretchy 165/45/15s on them.

But this is how they should all look once I've had my way with them..

Shines, got a few more bits up my sleeve but will keep you updated.

Cheers
