Love the Jetta. Interesting to see the direction the Lupo takes.

Door checks are about £15 each from VW.

Did you get the SE bag too?

Hello and welcome to the club!

Nice Jetta! Don't see many modded ones in this country, which is a shame as they look ace (IMO!!)

Also, nice Lupo! Check out www.howmanyleft.co.uk to find out how many there are.... looking at the site, seems they peaked at 344 back in 2003 and now there are 298 taxed and 15 sorned, so rarer than a GTI!!!

Check straps are 6E0 837 249 C and cost around £20+vat ish iirc...

VW retail price for the check straps is £23.87 inc vat each

I believe the Cambridge (or SE in the UK) came with the darkened rear lenses, Suzuka alloy wheels and only in 'that' green or black, and some bag I've never seen!

The interior trim was "special" too. The bag was the size of the boot. I did buy one, but only used it once and sold it on as it was too big to cart into hotel foyers.

The material matches the SE interior.

Se's where only produced for less than a year. For a 9 month period.

They where sold as

1.0 - 1154 sold

1.4 - 344 sold

1.4 auto - 80 sold

1.7 - 70 sold

altogether there are 1500 se's in the country.

Here's a link to brochure in the how to and archive area.

Interesting... wonder if the previous owner fitted that. Only the ones sold in europe had that on them, since it was sold as an 'SE' rather than 'Cambridge' in the UK.

looking at the car mate , there is no signs of it ever being modified if that makes sense , the lady that owned it from new didnt seem the type to just change the gear knob if that makes sense

Dude...

Basically , the lad said it is interesting how it came with a knob saying cambridge , so im just saying the lady who owned it before me didnt seem the type to change a gear know so it must be from factory
