The lupo has various size engines. 1.0 as well. 1.4 16v had 2 variants. Normal version, and a sport version. The sport version had a 254 intake cam. Then you get the lupo gti, which has a zippy 1.6 16v engine producing 125hp, which revs until 7000rpm.

Biggest engine in the Lupo is the 1.7 SDI, which is also the slowest lol. They did a 1.6 16v GTi version aswell with 125bhp. That green one is the 1.4 16v with 75 bhp, there's a 101bhp 1.4 16v aswell. They also came with a 1.4 8v with 60 bhp and the smallest 1.0 50bhp (I had the old Skoda engine in my first 1.0 Lupo and the later 1.0 MPI in my black Lupo) Lupo content is awesome, a lot of MK3 and MK4 mods can be done to it

I finally got around to watching this. Super fun day my friend. This is what I love about KZbin, the memories will live on for forever (potentially). I’ll have my video up soon as well, definitely appreciate the shots of the Mk3. Josh brought up doing a VR swap again today, and I’m thinking ultimately that may be the move. To anyone else reading this if you want to follow along with the Mk3 build give me a follow. I also have a cool purple S4 if that peaks your interest at all 😎

The blue Golf in the UK market was called a Colour (with the 'U') Concept, towards the end of the MK3 life. You could buy them in Yellow, Green, Blue and I think red , and fitted with Recaro seats The VR6 HIghline models could be got in black or a mulberry/purple but they came without the Recaro's just standard seats with the squib either black or purple and matching door cards.

The Lupos are pretty good for what they are, actually I was considering one as a first car and almost went to look at a Fox (the Lupo successor, around the Mk5 era) as I wanted a Mk4 Golf but couldn't afford the insurance as car insurance in the UK is horrendous. Instead, I went for a Ford Fiesta, which I've had for almost 4 years now. Though I've seen a few nice Lupo examples, including some Lupo GTIs. Also I was meant to post on the previous video and it's going to be a somewhat long one so please prepare yourself: Congratulations on reaching 50k subs, you really deserve it dude. I've been watching your videos since around the summer of 2019 back when you were in Karlsruhe and honestly thank you for the videos, they've been really fun to watch over the years. Personally I'm more of a gamer than a mechanic but I've always liked cars and car culture as well, I'm a Fiesta enjoyer (Mk3s in particular) and have a soft spot for Golfs too, I really liked watching through the project builds like the Savoy and Pink Floyd to name some. But yeah, it's been a real pleasure seeing you progress over the years and hope to see more :)

@@christopherwilliams9418 yep it's a serious issue. Made worse by the fact the US has a 25 year wait to import anything too. Here in the UK we can just import anything even if it's brand new we just have to pay the import tax and shipping and the fee to register it. Big cars are also a problem here SUVs are increasingly common and it's got to the point that many multi storey car parks could crumble to the ground because of the weight of if the cars nowadays. A lot of them don't even fit in the spaces anymore cos the car parks were designed in the 70s and cars were much lighter and smaller then. the Polo and golf will actually be discontinued in 2 years time and the VW Up! The lupos successor and the ford fiesta was also discontinued this year. Small cars are very hard to find in new models
