what engine size do you suggust he buys a lupo gti in then ?
Would you like to ask that again, only this time make sense because i have no idea what youre asking?
i fail to see what is shocking about a lupo gti made in 2004 for the price its quoted at if its a good example
more so, why does the engine size come into it, would it be worth more it if was a 1.7 ?

I picked it up that its a general opinion that 6500 for a 2004 1.6 Lupo Gti is rather expensive when you compare it against other hot hatches of the same era that are probably far better and quicker, for much less money.
Scene tax is whats been added on to that car.

Corsa_sport21 gets my point.
Much nicer, quicker, well looked after, better spec'd cars out there for much less money.

Whats your budget?
Could get a high spec uk ep3 for 6500, or quite possibly a jdm ep3 or dc5

So even though it has less miles,same year, and less specced compared to the silver 1, you still think its a good price??
And by that i still stand by the scene tax comment.

Check on the vag/scene forums for cars for sale.
Ive noticed on other forums cars tend to have better mods, project threads showing progress etc and are priced lower than those on pistonheads.

I paid nearly 6+ for my 1.6 cooper s, its a 53 plate.
Don't really see how any of that matters if its a clean good example and been looked after.
