    Used to live in London. In 2021 bought a 2009 2.0tsi GT for 5k. Had problems with ignition coils. I have to say to anyone out there... it's REALLY important you go to a proper, reputable, skilled mechanic (bonus if he has specific VW knowledge). I went to 2 mechanics in London (one was VW affiliated), the other a bit of an MOT cowboy, both let me down. Anyway, moved back to Ireland and had recurring cylinder/coil issues until i finally found a top mechanic (i was lucky). I've have had ZERO problems since (3 years later), fantastic car

      It was a Christmas present mate, sure it’s from aliexpress though. Worth every penny but shipping was a while

    Great video, looking forward to seeing more! You got a screaming-good deal on this car for 7800. Even after the repairs. Here's a bunch of answers to your questions in the video: Regarding the hood air vents, the top middle and two back are for getting hot air up and out of the engine bay, not feeding cool air in. Yes, that does mean there is an issue keeping the intercooler water from filling with heat (called a "heat soak" condition) but that isn't an issue for a road car since it's not being driven hard for multiple hours, and in a race car there's enough air coming in the front that it's ok. Front mounted intercooler replacements are relatively popular on this car though, for that reason. The big center hood grill is blocked on the road car by bonnet insulation and a rain gutter tray so the engine doesn't get rained on, but in a race car those would be removed for better heat removal from the engine bay. There are two more intakes to speak of. The little circle one next to the big hood grill is a timing belt cooler. I've never heard of timing belts overheating but with this car you never will, haha. There is one more hidden intake. Underneath the engine in on the left there is an underside intake that comes up and feeds cool air to the alternator. Hope that helps explain all the intakes. Enjoy the new car! It's a fun one. BTW: If you are starting to push horsepower, you will be limited to about 330hp before you need to replace your fuel delivery system (fuel pump/fuel rail/injectors) in order to deliver enough fuel to avoid going lean with all the air the turbo is pushing in. Protip, I'm told the supra mk4 OEM fuel pump is plug and play for this car and can push more fuel. I sent you an email about your turbo recirculator valve. I'm interested in buying a used one when you get a blowoff valve to replace it. I own a 99 GT-Four in white. Lastly, the reason your rear spoiler isn't the one you like is that they had a smaller OEM spoiler for the middle years. The big wing was replaced with a smaller flatter spoiler for the 1995/96 model years and I think came back with slight differences for the 97 and later years. (riser blocks are all black on the 94 ones, painted on the later ones). So your car probably has an aftermarket one because it never had the OEM wing in the first place.

      Thank you for that, as I said infomation is scarce for these cars but you answered all my questions. I did reply to your email aswell. If you have Instagram I’d love to see some pics of yours👌🏽

    Nice to see a new video about the st205 gt4. Would love to see more. Especially how the anti lag works on this car. It's allmost impossible to find any information or guidance to either install or activate it. Then there's also the water cooling, sprinklers to cool the motor down. Thanks for the video, best of luck with your car 👍🏻

    Nice you see someone Young interested in these. If it's a ct26 will be a standard turbo, therefore can raise boost to approx. 1.1bar is maximum. Unfortunately you will not be getting 440 bhp out of a standard engine car, at a push 320-330 bhp (fly) before they start to let go, this is a 30+ year old designed engine. I've had mine for nearly 20 years, great car and really well built car and great fun on the back roads

      Good to know. I feel like everything I read on the internet about these cars there’s about 80 different answers to the question I’m after. Not much info on them. Good to know about the turbo aswell. Thank you for the infomation👌🏽👌🏽

    I’ve had issues with one side always fogging up and found it was a loose cap that caused. Maybe check your cap to access the bulbs if you have one.

    As always I hope you enjoyed this video & the reveal of the new car. Got a vast list of mods and ideas I’d like to do with this car. If you’re worried about the scirocco disappearing… don’t, it’s not going anywhere 👌🏽
