2000 Volkswagen Lupo S review from UK and Ireland

"Fun, cheap, easy drive, small on the outside... big on the inside!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

So far I Have not had any really bad faults with this car. I have noticed that the material on the seats has started to bobble and doesn't seem to be wearing to well. Apart from odd rattles from the rear of the car, nothing mechanical has gone wrong with the car yet!

General comments?

The driving position, for myself, is very comfortable. But I wouldn't say it would be for anyone over 5'9" as it may start to feel slightly cramped! I was surprised by the room inside the cabin, especially in the rear seats. From the outside of the car it doesn't look possible to fit 4 grown adults into it... but I was proved wrong. The acceleration is pretty quick, but on the 1.4 model it struggles doing more than 80mph without sounding like an airplane about to take off. It almost sounds like it needs a 6th gear! The dash board is bright and clear and has the bonus of being blue and red!! Overall, a fun car to drive and very cheap to run. Handles well and comes in a color called fantasia green, the best color of the lot!!
