Hi -

I've read good things about the Up! Reminds me of my 1st generation Rabbit/Golf (the Up! is slightly smaller).

It's not available in Canada/US, and I wasn't aware that the Up was also re-branded with Seat. (What is the 3rd nameplate variant?)

Do you have onboard fuel economy instrumentation? That's one of the first "mods" I would look into.

Welcome to the forum!
