Cheers mate. I see you still got your Arosa's 
(Remember you from Club Lupo) Have been thinking of buying one of them or a Lupo GTI again as I'm now living much closer to work again.

Yep ive still got them 
I used to do 60 mile daily commute in my TDi, it was perfect for that, and someone on here does 170 miles a day in theirs, so they are fine for long trips anyway.
What engine was you lupo? i carnt remember, was it a 1.0? the older SE version wasnt it?
Id like a GTi too, although i carnt see me ever getting one, id rather have something totally different for my next car, but that wont be for a year or two anyway.

My Lupo was a 2000 facelift 1.0SE in Jazz Blue. Did quite a bit to that car and it handled like a go kart. Do miss it at times.
Would really like something smaller than the Leon again but with a bit more go in it Like the Lupo GTI.

looking good fella,
i've just fitted the very same pedal rubbers, oddly i couldn't get my accelerator pedal rubber off, so just glued the other on top....

The standard accelerator pedal cover just unclips if I remember right. I did have to use a small angled, flatblade screwdriver to get it off though.
Got a few pics from VWNW with my 2 little purchases I got from there.
First walk around I managed to get me some chrome heater switches for £15 and then on the 2nd walk around I spotted the LC Charles stand and got me a set of SEAT chrome teardrop mirror covers (£35) to replace the matt silver Ibiza FR covers I'd put on a few weeks ago.
Gotta get me 12 months road tax this month @ £140 and also I think the front wheel bearings need replacing so spending will be at a mimimum for a while.
Looking for some idea's but a 40mm drop will happen sometime this year and then new wheels next year.

Not a lot done lately as mostly been concentrating on other things + repairs to the Leon.
What I thought was wheel bearings actually turned out to be rear brake pads and discs (£45 from PMF), another set of coil packs and the center exhaust pipe went (1 1/2 months after replacing the rear silencer).
Only things left on the repair list is to replace the dimmer switch and to find out what is causing the car to cut out and the idle revs to jump about.
Have taken a few things off the car and replaced them with the standard parts (leather steering wheel, handbrake, 6 disc changer, chrome grill kit, headlight protectors)
Have replaced the Aura cd headunit with a new Kenwood one (got it free so can't complain lol) and also a badgeless grill from Rennsport in Burslem, Staffs.

Although its not a stick on trim. Rather a complete replacement pannel in silver
Thinking of getting another facia adaptor and seeing if I can match up the silver colour to spray it.

The center dash facia was from Germany mate and I think it cost me about 25.00

Just a little update.
Had a set of polished stainless steel door handles made for me by my uncle. I think they look ok against the platinum grey colour.
Also Premier SEAT in Stoke finally got me the correct center caps for my wheels after nearly a month wait.

The Leon flew its mot. 3 in a row with no problems
Fog lamp kit has arrived but no bulbs were supplied in the kit though. Everything else is in the kit. Have ordered a set of H3 bulbs and hopefully they will arrive tomorrow morning so it will be an early start to get the front end stripped and fit the new wiring loom and get it all back together ready for the Staffs meet.
Oh yeah. The now tapes were from when I first bought the Leon. It only had a tape player for a week until I managed to get a cd changer.
I'm 30 so I do remember when those NOW tapes were released
