In today's video I bought a previously repaired Volkswagen Golf R MK6 just to see how bad repairs can be, this was a bad one, so lets check out the damage.

Looks like one of bradfords finest conversions. Hussain would be proud 😂
I spotted that 😂
Haha me too😅living in Birmingham plenty of dodgy mot garages that would pass this innit bruv😉😉
Hahaha typical Pakis eh
I spotted that is missing duck tape and it will pass quality test 😂😂😂😂
Yep straight out of Bradford
This car is a Facebook Gem! Original seller probably said "No low ballin'! I know what I got!!"😅😅😅
It's been up for sale 5 times since 2019 went up twice in 2019 then 3 times this year already the latest of which was for 9.5k 😂
@@Afraz_9n3 I wish Dean had run a vehicle check on it to see what that threw up. 😄
Noticed on your list Dean that there was no mention of the bad corrosion and holes underneath. The mot ststion that passed that car needs reporting to DfT
No mention of the door hitting the sill either
I’d brake it for parts. That’s an accident waiting to happen
I agree entirely. No way would I be confident putting that back on the road. The MOT garage needs reporting too imo
Don't get me wrong the repair is crap, but there is far worse on the streets and alot more dangerous repairs than that and loads of mint cars with air bags and loads of dodgy shit going on underneath
Absolutely 100% Correct,I’ve just wrote the exact same before seeing this post.
Poor paint and panel gaps never hurt anyone.
Mot place needs reporting should never pass with those holes
Dean you need to do a Caddy conversion with that Golf R it would be good content and you have all the parts to do it.
the price of a caddy nowadays mark you could buy a mk8 R
😂😂😂😂
Good idea
Last thing the world needs. A bloody van!?
@@rcokeman9495 agreed
Caddy van all the way, we need more small vans on the road
I like how the outlook changed from "buyer/ glass half empty" to "seller/ glass half full" towards the end of the video.
I'd say break it for parts, but then again, depends if you've got the time!
The M.O.T centre that tested and past this car should be reported to the DVSA. All that damage was clearly part of the accident and should not have passed an M.O.T.
Probably an iffy test centre. Definitely something fishy
Stevie Wonder was the MOT tester
You are a racist for saying that
Dodgy MOT centres everywhere and nobody does anything about them
@@recall2880 good
This would be a perfect candidate for a caddy conversion/build
💡
Hussain with his shoulder bag & his Gucci cap 🧢 left the chat 😂
You have no idea how much I love watching your videos.
I would report the TESTING Station to the DVSA as no way would that car have passed an MOT.
Well done for exposing this wreck 1
Maybe not according to the rules, but it should pass. There is nothing actually dangerous with this car. I'd rather be in a crash with this than my 1962 Chrysler.
Car should fail MOT for many reasons in this video , Name and shame , I know exactly the type of place that has So Called Repaired this car and they all want shutting down
@@ares9304not with that mangled sill with a large hole in it.
@@ares9304 and thats why Americans run about in death traps because they have never been maintained properly
100% honest video, poor chap bought a lemon, but there are numerous warning flags jumping out very quickly, I like how you expose the warts and all in vid, turning it from a lemon into either a rebuild or a parts car. Nice work 👍👍🚗🚗
Previous owner was a sweet old granny. She drove it only to the market every Sunday, never gave it full throttle as her right leg was shorter.
Gum job granny
they didnt fit the rear crossmember for one reason, the rear chassis leg is screwed so they couldnt fit the cross member to begin with, id be fuming if i found that damage after buying it
Drivers side sideskirt seems missing too. Damn that's a rough car.
Golf R with a previous owner called Hussain has all the red flags
😂 Exactly what I thought.
Bit racist?
@@dgg7377 yeah tbh. Some things are best kept to yourself. We all noticed it, takes a bellend to type it out and be racist though.
It didn't even need to say that name to tell us who's repaired this. It's definitely a Birmingham/Bradford car.
Dunno how this even past a mot deffo got to be a dodgy one
Very kind of you Dean to take that on. Evan as novice would of thought of the mismatch lights and lack of wheel liners. Hope it sells, think I’d rather see see the rs6 put back together, even if nothing in it vs. Parts
I’d be checking air bags have been replaced, seat belt tensioners etc. Could have been frigged to clear the faults
Bradford special,cheap as chips Golf R,one careful owner who only drove it to mosque on a friday sir honestly 😂
Wow - shocking repair and MOT testing station should be reported for not picking that up. If someone is good to take it on as a project then great, but i'd also like to see you fix it up properly Dean.
This is genuinely a shocking car, probably only good for a breaker to be honest
I can assure you Far worse on UK street than that car by a long shot
he should swap it to a tsi and make it a sleeper
birminghams finest, i would not get this car even if it would be cheap this is crazy
That light with the sliver inserts will be a golf r one as these came with full black headlights if specked
With the 19” wheels from factory, 18s came with the sliver inserts. Weird I know but true
I’ve got a mk6 r project at the minute. Bought with a failed engine so fitting it’s replacement in the next few weeks.
Do it your self dean bring it back to life.. you’r the man
I away Love your post Bro but I wish you would complete a rebuild form start to finish. On the other hand love you in depth analysis on each repair 👍💯😊
I think someone saw your videos and must have thought I can do that too. So they bought an overpriced damaged car, tried to repair it and did came to the conclusion that they couldn't make a profit on it. So they desided to cut the corners and found for a shady MOT test station and paid a little bit extra. Then they looked for a young guy who want a cool sporty car from his frist money and exited as he was bought it. After a weekend or a show on someone else he started to realise that he bought a mistake.
you are literally describing me, I bought a golf mk6 2 months ago and 3 weeks after buying it it started to smell like exhaust fumes in the car, a mechanic found the problem with the catalytic converter. I have to buy a new one now but they are pretty expensive. As a foreigner its the last time I buy a car from a foreigner unless he gives me warranty. Its sad that these people keep ripping of young guys like me
You have been building a brand for salvage repairs done right 👍, I wouldn't go anywhere near this, as if you sell it and something bad happens, it would be very damaging to your brand image. It wouldn't even be your fault, as you didn't repair it, but that wouldn't matter. I would break it if I were you. You could probably get 2 or 3 salvage Golf R's repaired out of that lemon.
It's also missing a driver's side skirt. That will be a fairly pricey one for the list. Definitely going to make me more wary of repaired cars!
Really informative video Dean 👍 Disgusting what people get away with 🙈🙈
I’m so happy the clutch and the whole gearbox on the R8 is working 🎉😊 phew !!
@@DaleSteel because he likes the R8 and watches this channel
😂😂😂
Can just imagine this on one of THEM corner plots in Bradford , #guaranteed non regulated finance 😂😂 genuine car 😂😂
Best price?
Price today
Add a side skirt (driver’s side) to the list, though that’s the least of its worries.
Interesting and informative as usual I notice you don't use VCDS anymore. Do you like your new diagnostic tool better ?
Really looking forward to more TVR content!
Cheers Pat
You missed the seat belts that need replacing because the pretensioners have fired, and the airbags that are probably missing from the look of the fault reader, they will be the most expensive part
If the pre tensioners have gone off how has he put the seat belt on ahaha , dont comment if you don't know what your on about lol
@@user-wb3ms1ru7b They still work as seat belts they just don't pretension in a crash
I think you should rebuild it that would be awesome to see mate I love golf's
Well its done now. You fixed it. Good job
Perfect opportunity for a car vertical video. Another class video
I was thinking that....be interesting to see what the actual damage was.
Horrifying that was given an MOT by someone. You're a brave man taking that on!
The front wheels will be off a scirocco r. They have a different offset to the golf ones but the same design.
Dean I think you are the only person capable to get this one back on the road, otherwise break it for parts!
With the window
Try going all the way to the bottom the hold the button down for 5sec then all the way to the top and hild the bottom up for 5 sec and see if thay works
Everytime I disconnect my battery on my S3 this happens and the window only goes up cm at a time till you rest it.
Basically tells the window were top and bottom is
Hi Dean, great video. Bit of constructive feedback..when you’re showing us round the car can you try and slow down the camera movement a bit. I struggle to keep up and end up getting dizzy 😵💫
Four letters, starts with an S, clue: you keep garden tools in it.
Countdown games yeah.
I do One better 9 letters S____Yard 😂😂
Chrome lined lights were on the 6Rs with 18" wheels, the black lined headlights were on those that came from the factory with 19s. Considering the driver's side taillight isn't sequential, this prob had damage all the way down that side and they didn't bother matching the heads and tails.
You absolute ANORAK! How do you even know this information?
Mad respect though bro 🤣
Awesome video as always, which topdon scanner is that been looking for one, and you need to report the mot test center.
Do you EVER finish a car or do just KEEP on BUYING more 🤣
Just shows to the untrained eye you would not notice these major defects and potentially you can end up with a load of trouble if your not carefull, Mot tester wants reporting for passing that,
Enjoyed the vid tho Dean, I thought about purchasing a recently advertised cat S Audi A1 sline, I'm not gonna bother now, top stuff mate, well done.
I love how he gives it a good rag before he tests the breaks, imagine if he went oh sh*t the brakes dont work haha!!
Really enjoy your posts but need to seeee the final drive......👍
Dean dont be so hasty bro. That Car has front parking sensors lol 😅. Seriously Dean. The interiour is lovely and its the new shape VW Golf. I wish i was over there instead of here in Ireland. Oh Oh what are you going too say now after looking in the boot. Wow it needs alot of wiring and small bits and pieces. But it drives great. You love that Car Dean 😅😅. I love it aswell.. Chat soon 😊
You missed the front wheels from the list.... Good luck with the sale, hope it gets properly repaired either way
thankyou Dean,,have a good week,👌👍
One of the best engines VW ever built. These are the best EA113 lumps to use for any similar engine swap.
If I had the money, I’d deffo LOVE this car!
I have a mk5 golf gti currently that needs love, but this is an awesome car that needs some love
Reminds me of an Audi SUV on an American RUclips channel "repaired" with dry wall screws fired into it randomly. You can see why Chris at SRUK is very reluctant to touch cars previously badly repaired - the more you get into one the worse it gets.
Report last MOT, testing station. Also put money on the MOT being without the car being actually looked at..🤔
Drive by MOT 😂
Bet the previous owner worked at MoT station!
17:00 in Poland we call this "ćwiara" wspawali ćwiare 😁
I enjoyed the video but was surprised you did not do a CarVertical on it. Or maybe you did and the results were unfavorable?
Not forgetting the gaping hole in the floorpan. Its horrific quite frankly. I would not want to be in a crash in that car again, given the steel has already been crumpled once. Its a basket case.....
11:35 *Dean, can you keep the sound down a bit - woke my wife up thinking someone was pinching my **_Ferrari Portofino_** !*
It just highlighted the risk people take buying a used car.but if the buyer was made aware it is a Cat car then buyer beware.
Yes the mot is a very big question, if it's got self leveling headlights surely headlight washers have to be working. But that could of happened after mot .
Poor person who brought it must of felt sick.
A great video.
Be a good candidate to turn into a Track car, at least if it ends the wrong way up it won't matter.
Also you missed the hole in the floor that needs repairing from your list.
Wow, I'd always be up for buying a Cat S, but I'd definitely be aware of examples like this.
The sad part is that the damage probably wasn’t even that bad to begin with. Somebody with some spare time could probably strip it down and build it back up nicely, but considering the millage and the fact that these aren’t collectible. It should just be parted out .. really sad.
If you fix it I’ll watch though I’m not hard to convince. There’s a skirt missing hahahaha.
The garage that moted that car want investigating! I'm shocked you gave 5k for it as well if I'm honest
1 owner well maintained, never beat on
Owned by mother of three. Always dealer serviced.
Said no golf r/rs3 owner ever agahah
Looking forward to this ❤❤
Looks like Mahmood from Halifax special, I have a Jag XF repaired as badly.
A friend of mine got his BMW 140i smashed into front end really bad but insurance are fixing it and not writing it off!! seems to happen more often this now which could be dangerous. Car vertical is a good app for checking history of crashes repairs etc etc.
I've said it before and I'll say it again.....Dean deserves to hit 1 Million subscribers plus. its just all round honest content and he includeds his F**kups, so rare. Good Job sir !
I think two people tried fixing it, one with skills and the other not so much. I hope you decide to keep it and fix it up properly.
Both golf r headlights, silver came with the cars with 18s black for cars with the 19” wheel package.
That's got a real whiff of Bradford about it
i had golf mark6 tdi for 4 years. Same colour. Worst colour to have even if it looks good when its clean. The wings get dent so easily. Those are normal. Otherwise great handling on that car.
that repair has put me off my dinner 😂
how did that car pass MOT? 😲 that trunk repair is just magnificient 😀
You need to keep this and do some sort of conversion with it! Skoda Yeti R? VW Caddy R?
That needs stripping for parts and the shell crushing.
I'm no mechanic but how did that pass its last MOT !?
I get a failed mot on daft stuff when this has 100% been done by a drive way diyer.
Like most comments I'd either part out and strip it, or do it properly but it all depends what money you have in it.
You've said it yourself that your not happy to put a value/price on it for ebay mate.
Looks like rear end been repaired without alignment so bumper doesn't fit. Indicators could be one side was coded with VCDS before crash. The welding looks very poor so how strong is the rear of the car ?
I think it was a better buy and probably less work to fix when it was damaged, it’s much more work now to fix it after it’s been butchered like it has been. Only one thing it’s good for and it involves no longer being on the road to screw over another owner
I would like to buy it, and fix by myself, but it have only one flaw,steering wheel is on wrong side so it cant be imported to my country 😢
Get that testing station reported to the dvsa with all that evidence and break that car for spares coz that’s all it is good for and get the shell crushed.that car is a death trap and should not have been put back on the road. I’ve been in the motor trade for 20 years and I have never ever seen a car as shoddy as that in my life.well done for spotting this
You need to twist the front VW badge clockwise to lock it back in place properly. Otherwise it may fall off.
Did the guy who sold you that buy it sight unseen?.. geeso thats ruff😊
How did that get a MOT with the huge burned out hole on the floor right beside the sill?
Mr. Autur Tussik just seen the repairs in the hatch area and puked! 😮😮😮
I bought a cat s repaired fiesta st line from a garage on Rood End road, Oldbury, Birmingham, b688sr. On further inspection after buying problems upon problems, breaking noises, panels not aligned, tyre edges looked like they were cut with a Stanley blade! Wires hanging from bottom of bumper, a new windscreen had been fitted, but wipers didn't line up with it, because of cowboy repair. I'm still sorting these issues out today. Avoid these sellers, just wanted my money.
So I recently bought a 2006 Audi TT 180 and it takes a long time to get up to temp and when it does she throws out alot of white smoke driving and on idle. Dont want to get my pants pulled down over diagnostics but really unsure what it is.
Thanks
Lol on 7min 11seconds where you rub your hand you can see the whole sills was dented. They pulled it back and did a horrible filler job. You can still see the dent lines
That's horrific! Probably nothing that actually makes it dangerous though like people are saying, I bought a lancer gsr once that had a wierd clutch problem, drove it for a bit before I investigated, thought it was a slave cylinder, but when I had a look, the entire bulkhead was cracked all the way down to the floor right through where the master cylinder was mounted a d was flexing all over the place!! No rust, just cracked no idea how it happened
Send me some of what your on pal, would you put your children in it?
@@pk93cov obviously it needs to be repaired like, if it was fixed properly then, yeah no problem
Straight outta Bradford
I’d definitely have that for work it is what it is
i would not want the responsibility of putting that back on the road scap only
that would be sold a "cat s but only minor panel damage" in Bradford haha how do people think that's a good job
THB, it was looking pretty good until you opened the hatch. What a butcher of a job!! 😅
How the hell has that got a clean mot!😂
What a gem 😂
