My last Golf was the very last model manufactured in South Africa, only 1000 built. It had air bags, air conditioning, leather interior and a 1800 fuel injected motor. I'm so sorry I sold it. Great watching your content.👍
that black golf at 11:47 use to be my brother in law's around 2019 did notice it with red and the blue like green paint on the body and old number plate did stay about 28km from there in modimolle
Some of those cars brings back a lot of memories. I was surprised to see how well i remember all the the shapes and makes ... The car at 14:07 , is a Alfa Romeo Giulietta , 77 - 85 . And you missed the car at 17:32 , tucked away on the right hand side, it is a Rover SD1 . Thank you for the trip down memory lane.
Great watching you enjoy our junkyards *almost* as much as we do... Pro-Tip: Not very often, but on some occasion, the junkyards with all removable items taken off and kept aside with no reference to the donor vehicle can be sketchy... (Speaking from experience, of course!) 🤦🏻♂️🤣 😎🇿🇦🤲🏼🕋👍🏼
the Nissan Skylines were sold here, My father had one, back then it was either a Toyota Cressida or Nissan Skyline very long cars but your dad was balling if they drove those.
The Audi 100 (by you) was the Audi 400 /500 here. The 100, here, was the previous boxy (square-ish) shape. The 400 here, came with a 4 cylinder and the 500 with a 5 cyl. Then the 500 was "baseline" "e", more luxury se and the performance turbo models. The Passat CLi was the 5 cyl "Luxury" model. That Passat here came with the rectangular lights. All Golf 2 models came with single or double round headlights, and it was a known modification to swop grills and headlights (between the Jetta 2 which was basically a Golf 2 shape with a trunk /boot - sedan, and the Golf 2 - hatchback shape.) The Golf 2 was not available here as a 2 door. It was also known as a "Jumbo Golf". That one Lancia /Fiat you guessed, is an Alfa Romeo, about '84 model. The Golf 1, without the "L" in the C panel, started as the Golf 1, somewhere in the late (I think) 70s, the earlier shape, then upgraded to the Citi Golf, upgraded later with the "L" shape and other features, and ending in the Velocity. That Ssanyong is pronounced a SanJong Musso. That "boxy" Skyline, is known here as the New Era Skyline, and was manufactured here by Nissan. If you see, eg, "VW van SA" it will translate to Volkswagen of South Africa, same with the other manufacturers, like Nissan,Toyota, etc.
The red coupe is a Datsun 140Z, great seeing you go through the yard. I haven't seen some of the older cars for ages. I'm also a VW fan, have had many golfs and jettas over the years.👍
man how pissed am i that i was at the cape town VW meet and i just didnt see you hope you come back hope your road trip goes great bru!!! 17:25 i think that might be a ford faremont judging by the door handle and window line
Renault still very popular in SA, the green car was a Fiat 132 and the number plate ending on N and L is the same province, they changed the name from Northen province to Limpopo. Nissan Skyline was build in SA. The Vin plate actually states in Afrikaans "Made in South Africa". Window cranks are so cheap and easy to find for Citi Golf.
Sound like somebody I kinda know by the voice from a game by the name Rayheon, Anyway, love the video, great to see this stuff aswell the video was just enjoyable overall, keep it up man!
You missed the mazda 626 egi most iconic motor used for turbo back in the day.. and that nissan with the wing you liked is a sabre you dont see them in good condition anymore
I grew up in SA and remember seeing Nissan Skyline`s everywhere, the South African Police back in the day used to drive the 3L 4 door, painted yellow...
Yes, Skyline was very popular and you'd see thousands on the roads. I'm surprised by the amount of kadets I'm seeing, it's rare to find good body parts for them. Passat was very popular too, Cli was a five cylinder, very luxurious.👍
I once saw a renault 5 in Durban. It was hilariously small, what was funnier is that the old man that hopped out of it was at least 1.9-2 metres tall XD
Team Jesus sticker... Didn't help the car too much. 🤣 When you picked up that metal numberplate. 🔥😂 Yes. We do also have ticks in the long grass. Im glad that I was able to meet you in Kariega aka Uitenhage. Thanks again, for graffiti-ing my book. 😁
We got the R30s and R31 skylines. Including the only R30 coupe that was sold outside of Japan. The models of the R30 (which came in Sedans, Liftbacks, and coupes) included the: NR30 1.8 (L18/ Z18) NR30 GL (L18) NR30 SGLI (L28S/E) KNR30 GLX 2.8 Sedan (L28S/E) KNR30 GTX 2.8 Coupe (L28S/E) The R31s included the: NR31 GL (CA20S) NR31 GLE (CA20S) NR31 SGLI 2.0 (RB20E) NR31 SGLI 3.0 (RB30E)
Unfortunately you cannot use a random number plate that plate must be registered to the car. Unless you have a few R100.00 notes to offer our very thirsty metro officers...
Thank you for showing us things our own RUclipsrs doesn't show us😂your enthusiasm is great👌
Do we even have any real RUclipsrs 😂😂😂

Thank you for the trip down memory lane.
The level of knowledge you have on these cars is on God's level.

Damn, crazy to see so many cars that were common here seemingly not too long ago litter the junkyards now. Time flies.
Yeah watch out for ticks..especially the tiny red ones.
Great content.
Especially liked the Mk1s..had a few of those.
Subbed.
Thanks for the upload bro, will pass this video to as many people as I can.
That cressida must've been there for ages. I believe thats the old Limpopo numberplate. More than 20yeara back.

Love to see foreign junk yards, fascinating. Btw the green fourdoor @ 8.05'ish is a FIAT 131.
I know this place 😂 very interesting that you came from England and found it. I was looking for a Rocam 1.3i engine block. Love ur channel ❤

The Sabre GXi was such a great car!
That is a R31 Skyline, the R30 with the 4 circle rear lights are the super rare ones that were also sold new in SA
I grew up in SA and remember seeing Nissan Skyline`s everywhere, the South African Police back in the day used to drive the 3L 4 door, painted yellow...
Wow this is very organised

We love our junkyards Jamie 😁✌
I'm in Bela Bela right know, I live there, I was lazy to go to Grobbies till I saw that 5.0, I'm going to buy it
Cool video! We had the Passat Cli here, not too many on the road these days unfortunately!
That's such a old school scrapyard. Most of the ones I go to are all new cars not old ones like this yard.
Orange coupe after the Fiat is a Datsun B 210.
The Voyage next to the Fox looks like a Opel Kadet estate.👍
I used love scrap yards exploring old cars with my big bro 👌🥳💯
I want to visit South africa so bad, just for the cars stuff
Nice vidéo 👍
All this stored outside under the sky.... So many 116's...
i want that blue Golf Velocity, where is the junkyard located in limpopo (Bele-Bela)?
#5ktocampfest, It was such an honour meeting Jamie Orr in Cape Town. Very cool guy indeed.
heellooooo... whats the name of the shop that was building the VR6 golf?
We did have the CLi passate and also the Skyline GTX - round tail lights with straight 6 engine
13:21 this golf can be saved as a project car i can even drive from soweto to bela bela for it, I love hopefully it has documents
Very nice the movie
We all end up here at some point😂🇿🇦💯
So rad!!!
The airintake at 9:59 is also on my 83 preproduction mk2 GTI. As far as I know used on all the 84 modelyear mk2 gti
Very cool!
The green car on 8min 15 sec i believe is the great FIAT SUPER MIRAFIORI 1600cc or 2000cc engine
i like junkyards they like fall of rich cars
like a lamb
Would love to meet you at a Vdub camp fest since you are into CLi cars
Need to go there

South-Africa has some of the coolest cars in the world, some were made esp for the South-African market too.
Johannesburg has alot of scrapyards
the green car you weren't sure of is a ford escort
Fun fact the skylines were used by police in South Africa 11:06
And traffic cops.
Voyage is a old Opel kadette stationwagon(gte shape)
I'm looking for crankshaft Citi golf 1,4
Can I get original carburetor?

I think it was the first A6 ..
The green and cool car (8.11) was a Fiat 131
8:24 Fiat 131
7:50 Cressida mark 2 circa 1984 maybe ?
It's the way our cars were made that's why they rust
