Title: Lupo GTI
Post by: ashw831 on 11 April 2009, 20:33

I have got a 1.8 n/a mk4 golf gti, just looked at lupo gti's and a bit hooked on them, the standard 0-60 is 1.6sec faster than my golf, will be less petrol insurance etc etc just wondering for general opinions on them..... I tried to play with one a while back.... didnt really happen, they kind of handle extreemly well!!

I drove one a couple of years back, back to back with a MINI.  It felt wooden.  I went for the MINI.  I'll bet the Lupo would feel better today though, after a few miles - the MINI fell to pieces over the 60,000 miles I had it.

I'd love one, but they're too small for what I need, plus the Mrs has demanded our next car have 4 doors...  :huh:

That car was at GTI Spring Fest a few weeks ago. The sound system in it is unreal, it will blow your socks off.

There was a 330 bhp one on ed38 a few months back for 7k, I bet that was a beast.
