Tyron Devine Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Hi people as above ^ Most of you will no i have recently been restoring my Mk1 GT turbo full respray the lot spent alot of time and money on her and it is still no were near finished but im only 18 years of age nearly 19 lol and insurance is a bitch im thinking of selling her and buying myself a 1.0 litre lupo or maybe if i get lucky a 1.4 sport 100bhp model lol what do u guys think about these cars obv i wudnt leave it stock would so some serious modding lol comments welcome Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 oh no no no nono chance of keeping the GT SORN ing it keeping it well maintained and buying a cheap 300 quid banger to drive round in for a year until insurance goes down a bit?that way your saving money and you can get the GT uber modded ready for when you can afford insurance?

iamlegend Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 obv I would choose a starlet any day BUTmy brother has a lupo and it has really grown on me, I like it!its a 1litre, but it can move!!he is only 17,also yes insurance is not bad at all,so if you are struggling with insurance may be something to look at.also can do some decent mods to them like my bros and stick a 1.8 turbo in it.it handles like a wei go kart n all!

Liam_D Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 What with all these people wanting to sell up all of a sudden? I know Starlets are pricks but there been loads this week I agree with what Lew said, after all that hard work i would store it somewhere until you can afford to insure it.

Armand Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 i like euro style lupos...you could go all out and do what this chap done lol twin v6 lupo Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndyR Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 Lupo's aren't that bad in all fairness, they've alot to offer inside and they're pretty damn spritely, 3 up and kept up with a Leon Cupra R earlier in the week.Took some photo's for my friend.My 2 cents Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Russleh Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 yeh but thats a lupo gti and they aint cheap to insure either. i agree with some of the above in saying you should keep working on the gt and buy a banger to zoom about in . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Amjad Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 You've done such a nice job on it it's only right you get to enjoy the car! Keep it off the road and run a banger in the meantime! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sanchez Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 nooooooooooooooo!Get an N/A starlet or something, probably even cheaper on insurance.Make it a GT or V replica, give it a lick of paint and some nice wheels, job done till you get a few ncb under your belt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
