Volkswagen Lupo

Click below to read car reviews of the Volkswagen Lupo. At Review Centre we have thousands of reviews of cars including other Volkswagen makes and models, both new and used, like the Volkswagen Golf, the Volkswagen Passat and the Volkswagen Beetle.


VW made a big impression with their first entrance into the supermini scene with ultra economy Lupo. Although now replaced by the Fox the Lupos are well worth considering as a second hand purchase. They hold their resell value well and have the makings of a classic car for all the best reasons, not least as they broke world records for fuel efficiency, offering more than 100mpg! Manufactured from 1998 to 2005 the Lupo was also widely applauded due to its groovy looks, probably the most fun design by VW after the Beetle.



The unusual headlight configuration and reg plate gave the Lupo the appearance of a face with a cheeky smile. VW aimed the Lupo at city drivers, those looking for a 2nd family car, or for young first car owners with a sense of fun. The fun loving approach by VW was continued beyond the exterior into the interior with wacky trims and bright colour schemes. It also has an impressive reputation for solidity and safety.

    The fantastic Volkswagen Lupo really is suitable for any driving situations, very fun to drive, its low on petrol consumption, and although they are a little pricey to buy in the first instance, they really hold their value for when you come to part with it. They feel a very solid car and having co ...

    I got my Volkswagen Lupo Gti after I sadly wrote off my Mini Cooper in a accident.

    I didn't think many cars would compare to the Mini's handling. The Lupo GTI is a quick well handled car! It's amazing the acceleration this little car gives out. Packing 130bhp and weighing hardly anything this car ...

    I have seen the Volkswagen Lupo Gti reviews and being from Wales I thought I would write about my Lupo. The car is a corner killing machine there is not a corner this car cannot get around with speed. I love it I advise anybody thinking about buying one to do it
