Best sounding TFSI lump I have heard. Kudos to this guy, not my usual bag. I have always thought the mk5 Golf gti was bland especially coupled with a DSG box. But this is absolutely mega. Nice work 💪
Kudos to the owner for his proper seating position. Most of the time they sit all the way back with stretched arms gabbing the bottom or top of the steering wheel with one hand.
Now I’ve finished the video… I’m glad I’m only going for 420 max due to this car not being able to be driven without spinning at silly speeds on and off throttle.
I really like the look of that centered exhaust. That would be so neat to do on my MK5. I've also been interested in a rear seat delete, but I'd like to separate the front cab for cooling and heating purposes. While the rear bracing is super cool, I wouldn't be willing to give up the functionality of the trunk for it, especially considering my car only makes stock BHP. I'm never going to need more bracing. It's a cool build and I commend Tunde for taking care of a car for that many miles.
Truth be told to be lucrative in investing, you need an expert to guide you so you don't make loses, most times it takes years to master this, so I've to work with Ms Charlotte Jones' one who is ready for positive ROI
My mkv is a late 2008 2009upgrade. With 88,000kms from new. But the repairs wow. Bi xenon headlight washer pumps. Abs esc. Pcv. Costly stuff. No mods at all. Can't part with it. But I worry about digital dashes etc. New Mk8 is hard to get down under and really expensive. Oh well.
Just goes to show...200,000 miles on the clock means nothing. If the timing belt, gear-box are sweet...you're good to continue if everything else is in good condition....
Absolute bellend driving like that on a public road and built up area. Other than that, nice amount of power in that thing. Take it on a track though mate. Generally people like living.
The 2.0t fsi needs some stuff done to it for it to be reliable. The balance shaft delete, replace the timing chain and tensioner in the rear, replace the thermostat and a few other bits and bobs then you might have a reliable engine.
Yeah literally when it's "playfulness" causes him to lose control and take out the mummy on a school run.. Seriously I just thought this was f#kn stupid. Track days fine - but don't use it on the road like this when you are wrestling it the entire time
