Hi Dave, are these still available as well please?

I went from asking for 500 in a private sale to scrapping it for 100 cash in my pocket , free collection. I'm also allowed to take a few parts off it. I asked lol.

Quickly came to the conclusion that it's worthless even after offering it for 200 quid on the lupo forum , not even a sniff. I was thought if I sell it I want the arms off it. I did a fair bit of work on it including rebuilding the suspension, so got attached to it. I'm bad for it. On the plus side can sell some lupo spares . Got a Mk1 fabia 1.9 diesel for peanuts . In really good condition for the age. Just need a cheap hack to eat some miles . It's a lot faster than a non turbo diesel as well . I do love banger nomics .

Scrapped it for a hundred, which means I get to stick the wiper arms on the Corrado :thumbleft:

Ah, I see . It's on the lupo forum as well . Yeah looks like I'll be scraping it. Just feel bad as it's been a great work horse

huh?

Make: Volkswagen Model: Lupo MOT:*13/03/20 TAX: 01/03/20 (but cannot transfer this anymore), Tax is £30 Annually) Engine size: 1.7 Fuel type: Diesel Mielage 150,000 (currently still in use, so increases) Description including modifications: I'm the third owner from 16/03/13 onwards. Its my daily driver, but its starting to have a few mechanical issues, which I don't have the time to sort myself, so I'm hoping to sell it on as a light project for someone. The car runs and drives, and starts every time. Mechanic problems that need attention: - The Gearbox has started to wyne in the lower gears. This is due to the selector seal needing replacing and hasn't been sorted. I was quoted 1200 to source and fix the gearbox. It would benefit from an oil change. I will include the selector seal part with the sale. The noise isn't very loud (doesn't sound like a super charger, but is noticeable. Its been like this for about a year now. - I've seen on this forum the repair kit for the intenral gearboxes is around 120 quid? Hopefully this can be sorted by someone who has the time. I don't, unfortunatly/ - The bodywork is scuffed, there is also some surface rust on the rear wheel arches. I treated this with some wire wool and hammerite, but has come back. This hasn't rotted through the panel yet. - One of the door strips has fallen off and left the ruber residue on the door. - There is a dent in the rear quarter panel (probably from a bollard, was like that when I bought it) - The car has been used all year round. The interior is in need of a good deep clean. There are some stains on the front seats and has a cigarette burn on the rear seat. This is from a previous owner, and the car does not smell of cigarrettes (perhaps a careless passenger) - The Aux belt has started to get noisey at idle (will include a new Aux belt) - The wheel arch covers are missing. - The engine under covers are not fitted, but included in sale. - Rear suspension bump stops are torn and would benefit from replacing. I assume the rear suspension is original, as I've never touched it. Rear tyres are old and have been on the car from before I owned it, they are starting to get some hair line cracks, however it passed MOT without advisories - Steel wheels have surface rust - Original VW Wheel trims present, but scuffed Service history. Part service history. Full folder of receipts during my ownership. I have serviced the vehicle myself for most of its ownership. Very little history prior to my ownership. During my ownership I have done, or changed the following: - Cambelt done twice, last done 17/09/18 142646 miles (done by a local garage) - Front suspension fully replaced with genuine VW parts 28/02/17 - Power steering hose replaced 14/03/17 mileiege, 139727 - Front Tyres replaced 2014, Kumo's - Alternator, Aux belt, Tensioner, 23/11/15 mielege 135638 - NS front ball joint replaced 23/11/15, mielege 135638 - Rear brake wheel cylinder, Shoes, shoe fitting kit and Fuel filter changed 01/03/19, Mileige 142646 - Front exhaust pipe with CAT, gaskets reniewed 17/10/14, Miliege 129887 - Handbrake cable replaced 10/03/14, milige 118930 Location: West Bromwich, West Midlands, B71 area Images will be added later today.

Awesome, I've got an alert setup for any new ones on fleabay. :)

Nice one, I've seen similar for sale on the eurowise site, but that's in USA. Bought the one you linked, cheers for this

Looks good and you get all the bits you need

Thanks all. Anyone think this engine stand would be okay for a vr6: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F163889971742 Vr6 and gearbox should weight around 220 kg so should be plenty of this takes 350 kg . I like sealey stuff as well

Do they work with the HT lead remover tool, I found with the dub power ones you can't use the HT lead tool, which is disappointing. Cheers

Hey all, Looking at this one, as I have some vouchers: https://www.machinemart.co.uk/p/cfc100-1-tonne-folding-workshop-crane/ Anyone used this and can recommenced? Given the weight of a VR6 engine, it looks like a 1 ton crane will be plenty. Thanks

Me please

Happy to support the forum in anyway necessary, and be more involved as well as donate. This is such an important resource for the Corrado

I'm happy to help with any management, Ex web developer work in IT, more than happy to chip in to keep this amazing resource alive.

Plus one for all these! Hub nuts channel is great. Look at Furiousdriving as well, he does a lot of "crap" forgotten cars. Love the senator, the grill looks amazing. It all went wrong after the 90's cavalier for me. My dad had three, horrible Jim, cheers for the offer, all depends if I can part with the diesel lupo, which is so cheap to run.

+1 for Merc 190D's So so cheap, always liked the look of them. Keep looking at Sierra XR4i's, or 4x4 my mates mum had one, always thought it was cool. Bit weary of the ford classic scene though: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/H-1990-Classic-Ford-Sierra-2-9-EFi-XR4x4-XR-4x4i-Grey-3995/264044157168?hash=item3d7a4218f0:g:eHcAAOSwdzhb7--4 Also tempted by a older Jag XJ. Mid 90's with the square headlight: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-Jaguar-XJ40-Sovereign-4-0-Auto/153457377923?hash=item23bac5c283:g:nOAAAOSwddVcuesB Jim, your 5 series looks like a good buy, been looking at 330 E46's. But a 5 series seems like its a similar price!

VW heritage supply the 02A driveshaft flange seal kit, just ordered them

Does anyone know the part number for the dust cap that goes on the diff ? Can't seem to locate this . Or even a good supplier

May very well take you up on this, if that's okay. Ebay has turned up a bust. I'll try the stealers, but probably a waste of time. I'm possibly jumping the gun, but read on this thread they may need changing, as I only have a limited window to work on my car, want all the required parts sat ready, just in case :D

Okay so it's a 5 speed 02a gearbox . I'll check eBay again , as probably need a new one . Cheers for offer, will let you know how I get on

Not sure what box, it's a 94 VR6. Cheers for responding both

Hey all, can't seem to find anywhere to get the following part : 02A409355A . Final drive flange that goes into the diff and the driveshaft on either side. Any ideas ? Done a general internet search and on VW heritage . Cheers

You could be in luck. I'm currently in the process of flogging all my older (but not that old) games consoles. I haven't started on my PS1 stuff yet. I'm deffo looking to get shot of all this stuff (PS1). I have three of the consoles and 50 odd games (probably more). Still got my old Snes and NES, not sure if I'm selling those yet. Only problem is its at my Dads flat, so need to head back and grab it. I've been flogging it all on Ebay so far got rid of: - Dreamcast and all games - Mega drive 1 and games (still got the console and a coupla games left, but needs repair) Looking at Car boots if the way forward, as others have said.
