i got my 100bhp 16v for Â£4500 with 30k on the clock

that sounds very reasonable.. however the 2650 is ridiculously cheap.. must be a broken engine or something (just joking), got yourself a bargain well done

Good buy, i'd still like to try a 100bhp before i go for a 75 just to see

I find the 75bhp engine in the lupo very slow after driving mum's tdi bora though.
thanks

The only think that was worng was the rear bumper was chipped a good bit and the odd scratches etc. Â£200 and she would be 100% bodywise. The engine is unbelievable clean !!

Heres a pic of it :
