Basic information and history
The Volkswagen Lupo GTI was built between 2000 and 2005 and was different from the regular Lupo. It has, among other things, both screens, hood and doors in aluminium, disc brakes all around, upgraded dampers and springs. The recipe is finished with those amazingly cute twin pipes mounted in the center of the rear bumper. Well-known Hagertys have called the car a future collector's car, which we can only agree with. It has also been compared to the original Volkswagen Golf GTI.
This Swedish-sold wagon is equipped with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine of approx. 125hp/150nm coupled to a 5-speed manual box and with a dry weight of under 1000kg is a good recipe for a GTI wagon. 0-100 takes approx. 8 seconds and the top speed a bit over 200km/h. The car has only had 4 previous owners and covered just under 110,000 km. A definitive collector's car, which is not only fun to drive, but also takes up very little space in the garage! Worth noting is that it is 1 of only 10 GTIs sold in Sweden.

Condition
The car is described as being in good condition with no damage to the bodywork or any rust. There are small stone chips on the front as well as the hood and rear-view mirrors. One rear-view mirror has a paint job that is visible. On the tailgate there is a scratch of about a centimetre in the paint right by the WV emblem. The spoiler has a little scraped paint on the outer edge. Glass parts are in good condition. Mouldings and emblems are without remarks.
The interior of the car is perceived as nice. The chairs have held up well over the years and are in good condition with no damage. Inner roof is black and nice and sits where it should. The steering wheel and gear lever knob have also held up well over the years. A Blaupunkt unit is installed instead of the original stereo. Inner door handle has scratches on the surface.
The engine and gearbox are described as being unremarkable. No leaks have been noted. The car has been updated with a set of coilovers from KW. This was installed this year. The original rims have the usual wear and tear and the tires come with approx. 6 mm remaining pattern depth.
