GTD's with the sport and sound pack have the same calipers as the non S&S pack - just painted red. So unlike the GTI PP models, they don't come (or are able to accept) a cover plate for the caliper with a logo on it. It's a mistake in the description by VW.

AFAIK, GTD's have never come with logo'd Calipers.

Damn it.

I thought as much though.

I'm trying to see if someone can make some up for me, I'm just waiting on a couple of responses.

Just make sure that they use high temperature transfer stickers.

Will do mate.

Only 7 sleeps now :grin:

Going to be a slow week, hopefully the weather will be good next week. Going to really miss my car but it is going to a family member so I will still be able to drive it.

For what they are, I always thought the Lupo was a great city car. Also recently went in a friends new VW Up! and was amazed how much interior space it had and how well it went. Great little cars.

Yeah I've actually been In contacted with Adam about his Decals and he says said he can sort me out so I'm just waiting on a PayPal invoice so I can pay him...

Adam has said if I'm willing to send him good pics of them fitted then he will refund me.  :cool:

Thanks

it. It's a mistake in the description by VW.
Not to mention the claim in the same description that the pack provides 'no additional noise externally' - the whole point of it is that it does provide external noise - the internal noise comes as standard anyway.

VWUK really are muppets!

Picked the registration number. Had a choice of 16 to pick from so I put them all in an online numberplate thing to see what they looked like to help me choose.

Just ordered the Revo carbon fibre full induction kit to go with the latest version of the Stage 1 remap. It should be fun.
