tut tut dave, punto was voted one of the girliest cars ever!

I think any car thats pretty fast, has got to be more of a mans car as (not beign sexist here) but MOST women arent interested in going fast in a car, just getting from a to b, i think the arosa is more the womans car tbh

Very nice!

Lovely cars wanted one for years...

My hairdresser and a mate both own silver ones...

My mate might also be on that lupo club, His names Andy from Newport, smoothed bumpers, 7.5x15 ronal ls rims, h&r coilover's rollcage and p/plate T11UPO.

I'm a woman and i'm interested in fast cars! I also know alot of girls who like and own fast cars.. sooo :p
 
RobGTi off club lupo? im ' the subtle modder' by the way ;)

sure ive seen that on the lupo forum
yep all the mods are documented on there as well

i remember a few year ago i read in max power about the vr6'd lupo, iirc it was supercharged aswell..

2.8 or 2.9 V6 front wheel drive was done by dub sport but as far as i know wasnt supercharged but still damn powerfull and pure v6 grunt that one started as a brand new basic 1.0 and was then fitted with a full wide arch bodykit and the engine etc after

Very nice car, quite rare too and chuffing fast!
125bhp 0-60 in 8.3 and over 120mph top speed and thats standard they tune quite well :devil:

girls car :(
disagree here

I wonder if you get the 1.9 TDI engine into that

lad over on the continent has put the polo 1.9 TDi lump in a normal shape lupo (Gti is heavily different) and it uses golf 4motion drive train to give it full four wheel drive and theres a vid somehwere of it going up a drag strip:eek:

yep also of clublupo

has got to be more of a mans car as (not beign sexist here) but MOST women arent interested in going fast in a car, just getting from a to b

you are so wrong theres as many girl racers out there as lads now and women are so competitive they will do almost anything to beat people in races

i think the arosa is more the womans car tbh
totally disagree and have been told before i brought the better one :slayer: the lupo looks cute and cuddly so gets called girly the arosa mk2 like mine in sig and avatar IMO looks mean and evil when it flies up behind you:devil:


dont recognise this one of clublupo i think but it looks oddly like the turbo'd one off there:chin:

It's a damn tasty car :yum:

too true

Emz - like i said, wasnt being sexist, just a fact, MOST women arent, but you obviously are, which is great :D

No-one can seriously say, theres as many women interested in cars and speed as men can they? Thats what i was getting at, but as usual on these kind of statements, its picked up as being sexist, when its just a fact!

Anyway back to the car... got it debadged yet? :p

always facneid a lupo gti, haven't seen one in ages!

last one I saw was in lime green, couldn't tear myself away from it in tesco's, just dribbled all over it :yum:


styling, keep it as is, its already perfect!!

and is that a glass roof? never knew they did that option, makes me want one MORE


as for engine conversions, the 1.6 gti is already nice to drive, much more power would upset it in corners, but more fun on the straight.
could modify existing engine as theres lots of stuff already available for them, or 1.8t conversion is damn popular now, and relatively cheap!
other engines, mmmm, don't see the point when th 1.8t is more than enough, any more weight would just destroy the handling and enjoyment of it :(


also, the lupo is the LAST vw that I ever liked, new gti mk5 is OK, but feels like an mpv inside :(
that new 'fox' is an abomination to Vdub kind :mad:
