Lupo GTI FTW  :congrats:

But that a future plan when I have some more space at home.

For now a convertible is required to keep her happy too, I am really liking the idea of a Mk1 TT  :smiley:

TVR Griffin 500 maybe or a Chimera? Worth it for the glorious Rover V8 noise alone!

That would be a stunning motor, and a modern classic so.good.resale values etc.
