My dad used to have a mk2 GTI back in the day. Mum told me he was crying for one when they got married as he wasn't sure if he could afford it then 🤣. Did it up and actually got featured on a car mag. The funny story is he put it on sale and someone called about it saying they want to feature it on a magazine.
Liked before the video ended! Awesome build! Wicked colour! What a car!! What a guy for taking the time to keep these builds 💯! Respect to him an u Ricky for showing us the gems!
Have to agree, had an a3 with this engine, straight piped and you would honestly never get tired of that noise, also the NA power delivery throughout the gears is just something else 👌
Sweet! Loving the classic cars man! Awesome channel, much respect to the owners for keeping these proper cars on the road! See you driving a Mk2 someday Ricky!
12v VR6 24v VR6 Both are 2.8s R32 are 24v 3.2s hence the 3.2 Exhaust note preferences are usually 12v R32 24v I've gotten complimented instead of ticketed by police in my straight piped 24v 2.8
@@Prince-gu8or and you gey adds on the phone too but you watch it for 10 or 15 secs after it says skip n Ricky gets s little more money... he gives us lots of joy so just spend thst extra sec watching for him👍
Kumarasamy Suthakaran a true Quattro system is a lot better than Haldex. A Haldex is more front wheel biased and only transfers power to the rear when it feels slip. I’m not sure but I’d guess that they’re pretty similar as far as parts wise tho.
This is definitely a dream car for me. I was in the process of building an 86' Cabriolet with a mk4 VR6 engine and trans but had to sell everything off due to unexpected life bullshit. Any chance you'll meet a fan from the states? I'll be flying to London from the United States November 17th through the 20th before heading off to Ireland.
God, this car is gorgeous. Makes me miss my mk2 gl. I wish we had more older dubs here in the states. Seem to be becoming harder to find imo, at least clean examples.
When he said stick it in neutral for the horses he became a winner in my book. Great content, lovely cars!
He just doesn't want a horse kicking big dints into his car, I once saw a moped rider kicked clean off his moped by a horse lol.
@@TheTruth-uy4kp hahahahahaha
Nice work on not scaring the horses 💪🏼, sounds mint too!
Andrew you alright bud?
Loving the older car content, it makes my day Ricky
Mk2 Golfs have always had a special place in my heart. Sick car and great vid as always Ricky!

I had the mk2 16v 87 plate and 30 yrs later, I still miss the cars character and drivability.
Happy days.
Marriage/kids = VW Touran 😭😭😭
Yeah sick. Proper sick, totally sick, well sick...
These old school whips bring back memories 💯
Probably the best looking golf with the best sounding engine fitted 👌. Probably the best combo you can do
Fair play to him. He's got two cracking cars
Seems like a decent guy too 🙏🏿
Ricky...This has got to beat an e46 m3?
Owner... oh yer yer it will eat that, eat that.
Ricky... it will eat that?...
VW golf... I'LL EAT THAT NOW! 🍽
What a Clean example ! owner clearly knows The deal when it comes to VR's - Stealth racing best in the game !
7:16 THIS THINGHS GONNA SINGH BOI!
I like to see guys like this that have that love of older cars respect mate
This dude is chill. He is cool. Reminds me of Ice Cube. Great car sounds sick man.
Ricks coming thru with the nostalgic whips 👊🏾💯
Richard Williams yes dick Williams I know how to spell 🙄
Can't beat bit of old skool 👌
Guys got a good car and got good common sense, nice to see people care about the animals!
Proper car guy and respectful as hell. Very cool 😎
Can't beat the VR6 engine for sound! 😍👌
What a machine he got good taste😍
Very humble people on ur channel Ricky! Keep up the good content thank u
The styling inside and out on that car are spot on. Really tastefully done. Cars awesome 👍
Beautiful noise. Used to have a cracking VR6.
Fair play to Gurpal! Great mk2, sounds awesome! My mk2 has similar power and the power to weight is spot on!
how the hell can anyone dislike this material!? great editing Ricky, the mk2 platform is a great base!
Wow man what a very beautiful golf
That old school sound will never get too old👌
Nothing more classic and classy than a mk2 with bbs
2 genuinely decent down to earth guys. Who are passionate about cars. This Golf's da bomb 😜
Great interview, the owner comes across as a genuine nice guy with an awesome, non pretentious car ....
Nice car, driver is a nice guy and even had a mk2 golf on his t-shirt 👌🏻 keep it up rick
Just when u think uv heard all the VR6 engines rev up .....
Then there's this what a soundtrack
What a lovely machine. Them boys at stealth really know what theyre doing!
Ngl most classic cars from London all come out of Southall. It's where the classic car scene is lit I live here myself.
It wasn't me 👀
I sniff bicycle seats with intent to lick
@Catalogue Paul edl is out in force today lol
@Catalogue Paul if only you realised how you sound.
Liked before the video ended! Awesome build! Wicked colour! What a car!! What a guy for taking the time to keep these builds 💯! Respect to him an u Ricky for showing us the gems!
In my opinion he's got the nicest looking golf and the best engine sound.
The editing sound effects on camera change are sick! Never seen them in a vid before
Great vid & really nice build👑
Ricky sure enjoyed this one.
Great looking mk2 👍🏻
Love this car, followed the build from back in the day on ED38
The colour and sound are amazing!! 🙆
Phenomenal sound!
Still the best sounding 6 banger... In the world. Loving the content Rick meister.
Have to agree, had an a3 with this engine, straight piped and you would honestly never get tired of that noise, also the NA power delivery throughout the gears is just something else 👌
Love Mk2s. Someone needs to do a street drive video of the Boba-Motoring MK2 2L 16v Turbo with 1200BHP... Ricky???
@Mike VermaakBoba comes to U.K Santa Pod raceway
This thing is sick! Makes me love my R32 even more now 😂
That’s the perfect mk2 👌🏻
This geeza seams so down to earth. Beautiful car👌🏻🔥
badddd boy motor, the stance looks, the sound of that .. everything perfect about it
Sweet! Loving the classic cars man! Awesome channel, much respect to the owners for keeping these proper cars on the road! See you driving a Mk2 someday Ricky!
I swear this guy looks like Ice Cube's son
It is mate
Awesome old school beast!
It sounds heavenly✌👍
Nice nice nice vlog again, second best sounding V6 behind the 350z VQ35 💪🏼
Can't beat the sound of an N/A 3.2👌🏽
Inline6 engines like RB2X 1JZ-2JZ imho has better sound. In VAG platform Inline5 also has great sound.
Inline 5 like the mk2 focus rs 😍
Old V new love it 😎☘☘☘
Awesome sounding motor, sounds like a baby Lambo!!! Motor looks proper mint too, the perfect package!!!
bloody hell now thats got some Power
What a beauty
Awesome piece of kit 👌 👌
sounds awesome dude, good job
Nice mk2
12v VR6
24v VR6
Both are 2.8s
R32 are 24v 3.2s hence the 3.2
Exhaust note preferences are usually
12v
R32
24v
I've gotten complimented instead of ticketed by police in my straight piped 24v 2.8
Beautiful colour and amazing sound!
MK2... way to go!
Such a strong car!
Great video... thanks 😊
Ricky getting ice cube on the channel 😂 sick car man video is 🔥
Dont forget to watch the WHOLE ads...
Really helps Ricky out and its 1 min of your life for a great video... not a bad trade i think 🤷♂️👍
What ads? I guess I'm a bad person for having ABP.
You do know skipable ads generate the most revenue?
@@_Professor_Oak Are you from the past. People watch on phones now
Yeah I use an ad blocker guess I'm a bad person too.
@@Prince-gu8or and you gey adds on the phone too but you watch it for 10 or 15 secs after it says skip n Ricky gets s little more money... he gives us lots of joy so just spend thst extra sec watching for him👍
Now this is a car. And not shitty 116 in sight!
Am I the only one that wasn’t a tad disappointed that it wasn’t AWD converted? Clean build nonetheless👍
A non rallye/syncro shell is a big job to convert it to AWD, you have to make the tunnel bigger etc, definitely doable but a big job nonetheless
Gurpal has a purple Golf, coincidence? I think that’s pretty sweet
Those wheels... stunning! Such a nice car..
Beautiful car and engine! And sound of course!!
Man’s car collection is immense 👏🏻💥
Coming back to this video cz i miss vids on the main channel. Pls bring back old school legends like this ❤️
Simply beautiful. Love the sleepers👌
Awesome car. I’m sure there was a build thread on edition38 back in the day
That's my mates Gurpal...great lad has two savage Rottweilers too ;)
Looks good and sounds the part with decent power..👍👍
Ricky seemed like he wasn’t having it hahaha so it’s got similar BHP to FT-LBS 😂 and it’s N/A
😂😂👌 even speaks a lil like him Haha
Man like Gurpz.. This is 🔥🔥
Think you need to get this together with an E46 M3 and we can see what’s what!
Looks good but not sure about the vr6 badge on the grill and gti on the doors ? Apart them that it looks like he has done a great job in his garden 👍🏻
Dream car👆🏼 Quattro and supercharged if I had it tho.👌🏽
Isn't HALDEX 4 Motion the same or r they related, parts wise?
Kumarasamy Suthakaran a true Quattro system is a lot better than Haldex. A Haldex is more front wheel biased and only transfers power to the rear when it feels slip. I’m not sure but I’d guess that they’re pretty similar as far as parts wise tho.
Mint as usual Ricky......... cheers from Ireland
Great car/engine combination, 16 bbs rs is the perfect wheel on a mk2 too!
This things perfect, loving the old girls 👊
Car sounds very nice 👍🏻
Always loved the look of the mk2.
Props to Gurp for being honest. He could have blagged and said yeah ive raced and beat all these cars.
Corrado Owner Ricky 😉👍🏻
Looks so good, great colour choice :)
Love the mk2 golf. Sounds sick
Just gota love that sound!
Tasteful and sounds amazing
Great combo nice1👌

Stunning... and those rims 👌🏻❤️

Beautiful mk2 bro, waheguru ji 🙏👌 ... Ricky nice 1 getting the old whips on the channel...!
My dream swap right here
This is what I'm talking about Ricky! The beans. 👍🏻👌🏻💪🏻🔥
