Woah! 🎉
Its all ready been done by a youtuber named frosty built
I would like to see you guys do a kit car . Something like a Pontiac Ferrero
This build has Levorg vibes. I'm digging it. 😎
My nose was itching so badly
You need to shout out the wrecker. They did a fantastic job from what we can see so far. I am pumped for this itty bitty fröthbox
Yeah holy crap that was amazingly well extracted, organised and even the packaging is waaay better than you usually see from parted out cars, especially coming from overseas like this
I have a feeling that this wrecker knew who was buying it and why.
Swelling with British pride 🇬🇧
A fair contrast to hitting the roof with coolant...
Yes they were awesome. Steve from Statller in the UK. Details in description!
16 years and still coming up with new exciting fresh ideas
Legit man, these guys are the best
Hells yeah!
I was sure they purchased one of those tiny Chinese electric cars
It's not really a fresh idea, someone else is already doing one with a proper GTI engine, @FrostyBuilt
kinda stole the idea though let’s be honest
Mad props to those wreckers over in the UK. That's some real care and pride in their work.
Yeah, I promise, this wrecker is 1 in a hundred!
Most of our wreckers are awful.
i agree man, impressive how good of a job they did for it
@ceirwan I'd agree. As a mechanic, I've seen some incredibly dumb shit done by wreckers before
5:59 putting an ad break RIGHT as you throw the lid aside, FULL DISRESPECTED 😂
Unboxing a car is definitely a interesting concept
To my knowledge, Amazon did it first 9 years ago with a partnership through Nissan. It was a very short lived publicity stunt. Motorcycle and ATV vendors have been doing this though for ages, as that's just how they ship them overseas, in parts, and then the dealerships assemble them.
James May done it first 😂
Finally opening Cheryl's box.
I was half hoping this was going to be a Lotus/Caterham 7. None the less the boys did not disappoint, can’t wait to see the rest of the build.
Me too
Me three
Me too, too
I was hoping for an Ariel Atom but yeah along those lines. Love that the UP is getting love again
And another hoping for a Caterham...
There is a turbo gti up in Brisbane already built by frostys mechanical
I remember when James May did this as a joke. Now it's really happening
Instantly what I thought of lol.
James May is an absolute legend. 🫶
Same. So fukin funny.
@@jollygoodsmashingWOW that’s what it is!!
@@jollygoodsmashing They didn't really leave, the show had enough of the bbc and left.
Whoever packed those crates is a legend
3:15 THIS is one of the reasons I've always loved you guys. You've always stayed true to your roots and your fans, and I have MASSIVE respect for you guys because of that 💪🏻
I’m excited because you’re excited! I love that you boys continue to do what excites you instead of pumping out content for the sake of it.
I think it's wondeful that you guys grew the channel organically and the merch money goes right back into your hobbies
Guys are rich AF.
@kraenk12 well I would think anyone that works hard ought to be well off. I'm not, but perhaps they work harder than me
Kudos to that wrecker for doing a stellar job. You guys should name drop them simply for doing a good job.
As opposed to the ones that didn’t

OH MY GOD you do not know how much i have wanted one of these specific cars since finding out about their existence! ive thought this car would be PERFECT for you guys for years now and i am sooooo fkn excited to see what you can do with it!
Mad respect. It's rare to see a car youtube channel that is so self sufficient. I live you both and wish nothing but success I am ordering some melon scented air fresheners for my wagon and some t shirts. Mad respect from Cali
I think a video on the general process you guys go through when making a purchase like this would be very interesting! Even if you dumped it on the secondary channel. Some of your engine swaps are obviously simple eBay listings but this one definitely seems like it might have been a bit more involved.
This episode takes me back to the late 90's when I was reading magazines about the US market frothing for JDM conversions - particularly building EK Civic hatchbacks into EK9 Civic Type-Rs. Shipping the EK9 engine, body kit, interior and what ever else they could get and applying it on a US spec model, really the true definition - and birth of 'JDM spec' in the car community.
Nice job guys! To be honest i secretly hoped it would be some kind of kit car, like a Caterham, that you guys would build up completely yourself! Looking forward to the rest of the series
Looking forward to this build , love your work, thanks to 2 awesome guys.
Awesome. Kinda hoping it was a Caterham for a second. 😅 But this is really sweet.
I to thought it was gonna be a Caterham 7.
Same here...😅
Guys the up gti was a ton of great upgrades available in Brazil! There are tons of those running with 200hp plus at the wheels in Brazil!
I can only imagine the amount of work that went into dissasembling and packing this car + shipment logistics. Awesome video and glad you guys are in my feed again
Ive been watching you guys for .....at least ten years from the driveway episodes. Just finished watching Moogs journey which was very good.inspirational! Keep it up and thank you for all you've done. ✌🏽😁👍🏽
Theres nothing quite like being edged by Moog on my way to work 👌
ayo🤨🤨🤨🤨
Moog could do whatever he likes to me & I'd let him,
Love these oem+ swaps,
you have a brilliant chemistry + recipe with this one
I'm actually so effing excited about this build. Don't like the UP specifically, but taking a little nugget and converting it to a turbo build for maximum ponies just awakes something on a very primal level within me.
Looking forward to this series, well done guys.
I am so stoked for this series. This is my favorite kind of MCM content!
Love you guys! Keep up the awesome and inspirational work! It's always fun watching you both and your buds seeing what your going to dream up next and execute even if your figuring it out along the way! Love it! Thanks guys keep it up!!!!
I love seeing how excited you guys are for this
I am watching from America, and I absolutely LOVE this channel.... how excited that Blair is about this build! After watching your other channel, I have so much more respect for what you 2 do, and I'm a bit jealous to be honest. Not over your successes, you 2 deserve it! I'm jealous of the connection and relationship you 2 have a mates!! Cheers boys! Can't wait to see this build!
yes i even cried cause i also need a friend to share my passion
@@motaboi5397 i think we all could use a good friend who shares our passions
love the vids guys, always get a good laugh and learn something new! keep up the good work mates and keep it chopped ❤️🤟🤙
Amazingly well shipped
This is going to be so good, can't wait to see more!
Love me some good nugget content, especially when it's disrespected style. Keep up the fun projects guys! I like how attainable this type of project can be for the average person, at least cost wise
That is awesome been wanting more UP content, currently have a little nugget of my own I’m slowly modifying 🤙🏻
Sweeeeeet! We have this engine in Brazil, but no GTi (tsi only, 105hp).. Fun fact: the brazilian Up is 10cm longer and the hatch is metal, not all-glass. Some say the 1.4tsi turbine fits plug and play.. Cheers!
Cant wait for this! These are amazing little cars. Fyi, still 4 stud, rear disk brake conversion kits are available, there are examples with 180hp here in the uk, some great coilovers are available for them, audi s1 shift knob is a nice Upgrade to add a bit of weight to the shift, look out for the rear wiper seal as they perish and let water in but easy to replace.
My absolute favorite MCM builds are this. Way cool guys.
At 2:35 I thought it was a Caterham 7 kit car. Let's find out if I'm right. (nope)
Me to till I spotted a white car in the back ground
Lovely little motor! Can’t wait to see the progress!
They're common ish in the UK but I still love seeing them since they're small and quick (ish). Can't wait for this series!
Glad to see some uk stuff helping you guys, top scrap yard doing that for you guys. Also it's gonna be mint!
I have been looking forward to a disrespected nose. It feels like it has been a long time.
Nasal transplant time
👃
When it comes to noses, its best to pick your own..... 😮
Super stoked about this. I’m not into vw’s really or tiny cars being 6’4” but I love your enthusiasm for it and it’s infectious. Good on you guys.
Don’t knock it ‘till you’ve tried it. I’m 6ft 4 and my UP! is my daily driver. I did fit a steering wheel spacer and a centre armrest from a Skoda Citigo but otherwise it’s perfectly comfortable. 👍
Order placed for some merch! Love the videos! 🤙
I was not expecting this, should be interesting. Now... what is Marty getting to race it?
Possibly a Hyundai i20N but sourced from around the world and assembled. That will take 27 boxes of stuff and 12 months.
No challenge just buying a new one. If they're available.
@@David_Johnson_ as much as I’d love to see that, the i20n is a different weight class to the up, its closer to a fiesta st in performance, whereas Hyundai were meant to be bringing an i10n out to compete with this
His Mira
OR he can buy it from the dealership. BUT they won't even touch Korean cars. @@David_Johnson_
I’m from the uk You can fit enkei rfp1 alloys on them 16-7j +35 fit perfectly with 195/45/16r tyres. And miltek do exhausts for them Thank me later haha and the intercooler is on top
I've been watching you guys for years, love the channel! I absolutely can't wait to see how this goes. I have an Up! GTi myself, owned it brand new since 2019.
What a cool build! Can’t wait to follow along.
Honda Fit content maybe? GD... with ITBS?
This is interesting, I’ll love to see this swap UP and running, pun intended
We’ve already done it. We used a real GTI engine.
My mechanic did a 1.8L swap from a polo gti in an up! He tuned and did everything himself and even brought it round the track. The thing absolutely ripped!
oh maaan... im sooo excited...this is not at all what i expected and i couldnt be more excited. had no idea you still had the UP but im glad you're GTI swapping it! this is the funky euro spec stuff that I and some enthusiasts would love but probably wouldnt actually sell in the US but im so excited to see you mad lads do a german half cut conversion. this will be a fun one!
@frostybuilt has been building a gti swapped up for the past few months and it’s running and driving already in aus
Man yall full on got me so bad expecting some crazy micro car to come outta one box 😂
Just recently started watching yall again. I'm glad yall got back to yalls roots.
Love the purity, and a in house project. Perfect!
Could have gotten a TFSI unit and made a modern euro super turbo 😉 Maybe a future idea.
unfortunately the 1.4 twin charged engine is a hand grenade at the best of times, VW completely replaced the engine for a good reason.
this isn’t the first gti up in australia though?
@FrostyBuilt
This build is amazing
New found level of respect for the channel,Great work guys.
Ooooh perfect timing. On toilet at work getting paid to watch MCM. Loves it
I HAVE AUSTRALIAS FIRST GTI UP.
We used a proper GTI engine.
Catch up MCM 😂❤
Really loving these vids of upgrading cars with factory stuff but keeping them factory looking and still being a ground up build. Especially making NA cars turbo so they make all the good noises. Would be nice to see a big NA 4 cylinder build with ITBs and mad induction noise though. cant wait for this one
What a lovely Project! I love small cars so much. Exciting news! have fun with it guys!
@fknsnd with the first GTI swapped UP! these two just look silly now
you gonna have a lot of fun! i owned an up gti for four years and drove it as a daily. i lowered it, throw in some bucket seats, did a remap to around 150bhp and absolutely loved it.
looking forward to this series!
best regards from germany ✌🏻
So excited for this project!
Oh, I am so exited for this!
I've been driving my Seat Mii - same car, essentially - for over three years now and couldn't be happier with any other car (except maybe the electric drive version). It is fantastically fuel efficient the way I drive it and costs me basically nothing to maintain and operate. Really easy to work on and expectedly good V AG design quality.
Can't wait for the next video!
I LOVE! your builds, realy keeping it real.
Soo pumped for this build!
great video series , tanks
I was hoping for a Lotus 7 clone, like a Brunton Stalker XL. I got a ride in one, it was a life changing experience ❤
Frosty built is a few steps ahead motor in and running
Sick little project. Excited to follow along.
Can’t wait to see this series and to see the end product. Great series starter video.
I recently bought a 2009 polo GTI, 1.8l turbo with 110kw. For a FF it's pretty well put together and I only have understeer issues in the wet.
Just bought my first Cheryl's big box! Happy to support the channel. My forester would probably be in the bin by now if not for you guys so i figure i owe ya's anyway. Cheers boys!
Oh boy oh boy. Once you've tuned it and done all the usual upgrades you're going to have SO much fun. Had one for 5 years over here in the UK and still as fun as the day I got it.
That front panel with the radiator and condenser and intercooler is sold as a "pack" for crash repair which is why its so handy for swapping stuff around. VW have done it for years, I had to do it with my 2006 B6 Passat after a bit of a shunt. Just bought a full front end pack and undid a few bolts and hoses and bolted the new one on. Was maybe an hour and half to get the whole thing done, hoses back on and coolant filled. This is definitely gonna be a great series for me, I've always been a VAG fan and have owned various Audi and VW cars for over a decade. Cant wait.
I ordered my second lot of Merch from you guys last month and its due to be delivered tomorrow. I am honestly so excited 😂😂 Right in time for my new car to arrive Friday.
Brilliant project really looking forward to it.
During lockdown a friend of mine got a vw lupo 1.0 auto 😂😂🤣 but a few mnths later it emerged from his shed with a 1.8 20v turbo BAM 225bhp engine from an audi and a 6spd transmition 😮 it was epic 👏👏👏👏 to him for creating this car 😊
Always asking with "Martin", so funny. 😆
Your videos have literally kept me alive for years now, love ever damn episode
I've always liked a unique or "different" car build over the ideal car idk 🤷♂️ and you guys never let me down.
The UP GTI uses the same engine as the Seat Ibiza FR Sport.
I had the newer 2020 variant, so slightly remodelled 1.0 Litre 3 Cylinder Turbo with the DSG 7 speed.. 110-115hp.
The older variant was more supported in the aftermarket bolt on mods like induction kits, exhausts etc. as the airbox was located differently.
There’s already a stage 1 remap for them, taking them to 140hp without mods and 160hp with mods.
I can't wait to see this build 😁😁. Well done to the wreckers that did the packing and stripping ✌️💪
Best unboxing video ever guys! You are living the dream my 11 year ood self was, every time my parents bought me another AMT model kit. Always loved those kits for one reason.
You could build it one, or a mix of 2 to 4 ways. Stock, custom, vehicle specific packages, factory optio type, era soecific, or custom style type, and flat out, no limitations mad mods. They even included aftermarket oarts, as well as factory parts. Same with their motorcycle kits.
And now, you're doing the kind of swap I dream of. Would love to get my mitts on a Barra and a 6 speed, and cut up my 65 Mercury Comet shell, and make a nice little, not quite sedste looking sleeper out of her. Sonething that's, " only got a little six banger in her."
And hit the local race night at the track. Road course, but tunable for no prep and bracket races at the strip.
With street manners.
Love the new project mates. Can't wait for the next installment!
Thats going to be a mad build! For a bit i thought you got a caterham that would be cool. Looking forward to the build
I am looking forward to this build.
It would be cool to see the power on the dyno before and after, and also the drag strip,
14:26 I absolutely agree with Marty on the "FWD sucks past 260 hp" idea. I drive a stock first gen Mazdaspeed Axela (Mazdaspeed 3) and the factory 263 HP is already too intense for most normal tires, I plan to keep stock power and focus on the suspension and tire setup to get faster lap times
Im pumped for this build
Ups are so good!
Up gti. 1.6 3cyl turbo .. epic hot hatch.. agree with power to from wheel ref weight too..
16years like a fine wine gents..
Thanks for sharing .. bring the build..
Im stoked for this! I have an MK7 Golf GTI but I dig the Polos and UP!s too! Spotted standard and GTI variants of both on my last 2 Scotland trips and loved em
