    Bro this video hits home so hard for me, I started with a 1.4 mk4 golf s and have manged to upgrade to a gti turbo which I've had for 8years now, I remember paying £700 for mine on 112k miles, the money people ask are asking for these days is so shocking, don't know where this sence tax has come from but it's outrageous, loving the content and looking forward to the next instalment on this series 💪🏾❤️

    I drive a small engine FWD MK4 1.8T 6 speed silver colour and its an awesome car. Bought mine 10 years ago and still love it. Mine has also been a restoration project. 90% done 😀

    I know how you started, and was a pleasure helping you as and when I could. I also remember the mk4 R32 rep 😂 was a nice looking motor. Need to catch up again when you've got some spare time

    Some decent 18s and a subtle lowering can make any mk4 look good 😎👍

    Why not go for one of the kits that were being used at the time (other than Anni or R32) say Oettinger or Caractere. Also could upgrade the handling basics say with a rear antiroll bar, them move on coilovers and TT/R22 cast wishbones/hub conversion and a Quickrack then brakes. Then upgrade some interior parts, seats etc. (engine, re-map haha list can go on and on)

    Had blue version same engine, VW specialist said not as good engine for tuning. Had good low down torque, but gutless above 50 mph and higher rev range generally. But loved GTi handling really responsive, standard wheels bit small though for higher speed grip. Good to see how long engine will last though. Someone else put about budget build be good.

    Followed you for a while now, my first car was a 1.2 punto, later went onto my second car a pd150 mk4 golf, bought it on 177k miles and it’s now currently on 260k miles, soon to be restoring it to factory colour as it’s rusty etc, going for an OEM kind of look :) really enjoy seeing you on RUclips, looking forward to the journey !!

    It would be cool to see one of the rarer kits on this, and cloth recaros but retrimmed, don’t know how crazy you want to go it but it’s seems like the car scene has moved away from the ‘proper’ builds I used to love following on the forums when I was younger!

  • @zeuss1353

    Do a budget build but with parts which are cheap but solid enough for everyone. With the experience you have with the mk4 you sure know which cheaper parts still are very good quality and which one arent

    Clean it up as a nice stock gti, lower it, nice wheels and of course a 3.2 lump. Don’t see many nice stock looking gti’s, everyone does what you said either anniversary or r32 replicas.

    Do all your cars have original r32 bumpers or do you use something like srstec or switchhappy. If you used aftermarket bumpers how are the comparing to the oem?
