2001 Volkswagen Lupo GTi review from UK and Ireland
"Very expensive package"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After 900 miles blew a cam shaft seal
required a new cylinder head
at first service 1 year needed a new crankshaft seal
at next service fitted new suspension rubber to try and rectify suspension knock without success
General comments?
Great little car, but let down by dealer.
