I'd rather have a pre-f/lift Corsa C tbh, you could get one for less than £5k, or if you wanted to spend that much you could get a proper minter.

My mate has one, thinking of selling it too
Its a nice car, well built and goes very well for a 1.6 but they are an acquired taste. They look tiny but are huge inside - more roomy than my S3 but the boot is tiny, cant fit much more than 3 bags of shopping in there!
They look nice as standard, just need lowering desperately!!
This is my mates

Its just what I read off parkers.
Who knows, 15k seems an awful lot, my golf 1.9 GT tdi was only 16k new back then!!

I prefer the polo gti over the lupo. Not keen on the standard looks of the lupo but a few select mods and they do look awsome

I like the polos too, just don't see as many lupo's round our way to be fair Nice to have something a little different i guess.

Cheap to run mate,
Tax 93.50 for 6 months
225miles to a full tank (£30)
Built like a VW, no rattles or squeaks, feels solid and most of the GTi is aluminium so its very light (bonnet, wings, doors etc..)

Very nippy mate, 125bhp in a bean can is going to be quick!
Easily keeps up with 106 GTi, Saxo VTS, plus it wont fall to bits!!
How much you looking at spending?

Very nice cars, always liked them.
I wanted a black one with some extremely deep dish wheels, little wide arches and for it to be on the floor, with all things smoked
