This week Jack and Ethan are going to pull a Mk2 Golf GTI out of a shed that's been abandoned for over 20 years! They'll clean the absolutely revolting interior with the help of the VAX Spot Wash, see if they can get the barn find GTI turning over and running, before also fixing some of the car's cosmetic issues. Will the engine run, or will we be in too deep?

Yep, Edwin could be the magic ingredient in a new Car Throttle trio.

Yeah not as energetic as Alex but the trio needs to be a trio

@heygek2769 Год назад

The oil on the outside of the engine looked better than whatever was inside. That's pretty amazing.

@althejazzman Год назад

If this is the new direction of CT, then I am very happy to see more of this detailed mechanical work! I'm very impressed with Edwin and Jack's knowledge.

@tomsandford6133 Год назад

Wasn't too sure about Edwin taking a regular presenting role but after this episode I'm sold!

@Falkietje Год назад

Off course it looks good underneath. With all the oil leaking out of the engine it has been preserved perfectly 😁

@TopsieT Год назад

Edwin is a natural, loved this episode! Keep it up boys!

@weatherall68 Год назад

Hope you can save the engine but it looks too far gone. Edwin is a welcome addition to the team. Looking forward to the rest of the restoration.

Edwin and Jack together are so natural. Also, love the more greasy videos... as someone who longs to be able to do these kinds of things, but having neither the budget, nor the space, it's great to be able to live through others :) Keep it up, you're knocking it out the park :)

In that case, you may enjoy Derek's content in #ViceGripGarage. One of his main bits is finding great old cars and getting them running. Amazing content.

The early ones are the better looking ones. My old white one was in a slightly better state than this one when I started on it. By the time I'd finished it, I'd ditched the 8v for a 3.2 24v.. would recommend! 😂 Now a happy Rallye owner. If you need any advice, contacts for parts or anything feel free to reach out.

@Matthew-wj8cm Год назад

I don't know if a replacement engine would set you back more than a rebuild of this one but I would attempt the rebuild just because

@MrManBuzz Год назад

Rebuilding this engine would cost way more than sourcing another one. This engine is so fucked it might be beyond saving regardless of cost as there could be cracks inside the block. The best outcome for it is a coffee table at this point.

@Matthew-wj8cm Год назад

@@MrManBuzz I guess the EA827 or whatever this engine is are plentiful. I got one in my 1L Toledo rustbucket.

@brannybrapz Год назад

About a month ago I saved an 86 Gti that had been under a shed since 2001. Im the 2nd owner. Luckily the previous owner was an older lady. Im 100% confident the only reason I was able to save it and get it back to being road worthy was the fact that it sat for 20 years and wasnt owned by my 17 year old self.

@JoeWuhPuh Год назад

Doesn't mean much if the Engine is cooked lol

@michele8039 Год назад

I mean, the car was registered in 1985, so it was 17 year old when it was parked up... it had plenty of time to rack up miles.

@smashyrashy Год назад

Engines fucked tho

@giantdouche Год назад

First ever car was a Mk1 Mars Red LHD 4speed GTI. Drive it back from base in Germany to the UK. Had it in the UK 3 days Racing a Sierra Cosworth and a Clio Williams round the windy B Roads near Cambridge. Cossie couldn’t touch us. Until I ran out of talent, fell off the road and was windscreen deep into a ditch. That GTI or lack of still sits in my lock up waiting for my son to be old enough to rebuild it. I’ve spent 17years sourcing every part I need to rebuild her. A build series on this would be top tier. Just don’t fuck it up like i did mine!

This was VERY entertaining, as I own a red MK5 GTI and back in the days when this poor car sat in a garage, my dad owned a red MK2 1.6 petrol, so this is quite special! He sold the red MK2 in 2008 and found it on the streets still running half a year ago! These cars are invincible. Cant wait to see the progress, this car deserves to live again.

@wardes7585 Год назад

My first car I ever had was an '84 GTI, but the 4 door. It was my 18th birthday present from my parents, in 2003. It had over 330,000km but was in exceptionally good condition and drove beautifully. I absolutely adored it! Sadly, it was stolen after about a year and I never saw it again. So this model GTI is very special to me 😊
