Moin. I am looking for a cheap car, which should only be used for the work path. The car should drive “only” and be reliable. optics is secondary. I have now been offered a Lupo 1.4 by someone from the neighboring village. As far as the basic data: Bj 2005, approx. 170.000km, 2.hd, no extra equipment. Inside and outside quite well maintained, needs a preparation, but the basic substance is very good and much better what else can be found in classified ads etc.. n places on the fenders are still possible. The car currently has no TÜV, because the front axle carrier is rusted through. All other TÜV defects are small things like dipped light defective, windscreen wiper worn. So nothing worth mentioning. Changing the axle carrier in itself is no problem. Have done more difficult things with other vehicles. The question is, since I had not dealt with Lupo’s further, whether one can buy such a car and usually the engines are also reliable or something special has to be taken into account. Oh yes, the car is currently called with 450.-€. Think a little bit of room for manoeuvre is still in there. As I said, a pure “working vehicle” should be, which brings me cheap and reliable from A to B. In stock for the next 2 years or until the next TÜV. Can one strike without hesitation or rather not? Alternatively, I had found a Lupo 1.7SDI for 800.-€. with approx. 9 months leftover, but already about 400,000km. Optical condition as far as comparable to the 1.4, but about 3 years older and keeping the high mileage. Have something to consider, that then soon something “larger” could be expected.
