Show Us Your Motors!

It's come a very long way from the first incarnation of the C5, I had one, about 7 years ago, an 02 plate one, terrible car really, badly made, not very nice to drive ...slow (well the 2.0HDI 110 I had was) ....but the current model, so much better in every conceivable way.

Although I do not need the car to tell me weather I can fit it in a parking space or not :p

Yeah the first C5's where terrible but this incarnation is way better the drive is so smooth.
The the parking tool i would say is more for women:D but it just shows that they tried to pack a lot of gizmos into the vehicle.
did i mention the mood lighting inside the car:D

I like the Lupo GTI, they hold their value incredibly well which works for and against them sometimes. They aren't great value for money but at the same time you're not going lose a load in depreciation.
 
Aye, i bought mine for £5500 2 years ago and i think that some now sell for about £4500. I maybe wrong but i think Defcon5 will set me straight.


Funnily enough I got mine for the same price two years ago! Its really hard to judge a price, as there are so few for sale you cant really get a decent sample. As said though, I would imagine 4500 - 5000 is the range for an early one.

There is an 03 on PH for £7495! I can find 7 for sale in the whole country
 
Funky looking things Lupo's.

Was about to say the same thing.

Again not my cup of tea but looks relatively tidy - and you cant deny they seem to live in some weird depreciation free vortex!

As for the scooby - keep it standard on the outside, you don't see nearly enough of these that haven't been ruined!
 
Been a while since this.

Car has been treated to a lot of new bits 'n' bobs this year and now looks like:-

Not bad for a freebie, but it still has a few parts that are waiting to be fitted in addition to a newer set of alloys from a 95 griffin. (ALU41)
