It's really fun to see you drive these slower cars round the ring because of the banter between you and the passengers. Like how all Jack did was laugh and make fun of Ethan. Nice lap!
That photo from Ice Kurve is just hilarious, Ethan is shitting himself, Jack is shitting himself from laughing at Ethan, Misha is focused not to crash into the Peugeot and the guys from Peugeot just cannot believe what they are seeing, amazing 🤣🤣
You can tell Misha was really apologetic after the lap when Ethan said he was scared for real. Mishas face tells you that he has the utmost respect for his passengers and that if he had understood earlier that Ethan was scared for real, he would have chilled out.
Madd respect, you mentioning at the end about safety concerns for others, and not endangering them on regular roads vs being alone on the Nordschleife, agree 100%.
This had me smiling all the way through, fair play to Ethan for being willing to go through that and have it put on the internet for the world to see, he's fearless in a different way.
Yeah, I mean that picture is complete because of that guy. His facial exprassion, combined with that calm and cool look, but slowly hinting "Wtf is going on there?" is just perfect.
Man this was great. My late Dad would have loved to see this. He had an ‘85 GTI and kept it for 20 years, he loved that car so much. This one hits for me too because not only was it an awesome lap, in the car my dad loved, but like my Dad’s, this Golf was also registered in West Yorkshire (FWA at the end of the number plate, my Dad’s was HWA) - thanks for the memories you brought back today Mischa, and for another great video as always! Thanks Car Throttle team for bringing it to Mischa for a proper ring thrashing 😅
Relieved that the car made it, you were respectful with the rev limit. Ethan was genuinely that scared. You did so well with the reassurance Misha, nicely done
Man was straight up about to have a panic attack down the foxhole, well done Misha for being able to take his mind off it and calm him down. As someone who gets anxiety attacks that made my heart warm.
I watched these two good lads pull that GTi out of a barn and here it is. Ok, boys, 288 cam, headers, headwork, wheels, tyres and coilies and bring it back to Misha.
Misha, truly amazing. Never seen anyone so scared doing mainly, normal UK motorway speeds! Love it. Watched your Pink Puma video yesterday, loved that so much. Can you make a "Shit Box" playlist? Would love to see you drive more basic cars, can see the genuine enjoyment and fun on your face. Loving the banter. Was loving the Bon Jovi vocals. 08:39 Keep it up! Not sure telling someone who is already scared that you can feel the loose bushings on the sub frame, I don't know, helps?? 😂😂
What an entertaining Lap! Hahaha, awesome reaction from CarThrottle. Always nice to see a "slower lap", as it is still scary to push those cars to the limit (without crashing when you dont have ABS or TC)! Greetz from a 50-ish hp mk2 dude :D
Fair play Misha 110 through the Foxhole in that box on wheels takes some balls. But equally as impressive is it didnt sound/look like you were fighting the car at any point.
To be perfectly honest, Misha's driving is immaculate and that needs no introduction, however: that little GTI took it like a champ! Truly an amazing car!
Hundred percent, given its a recent barn find spruced up and it's an early 80s car he didn't have to wrestle with it really . Would be nice to see it with a bam 20vt conversion & a lsd, good brakes and suspension set up then back to Misha for another blast.
@@blackmore6468 it's a great chassis for a project, had several GTi golfs back in the 90s MK1 and 2 and loved them. There's some real fast ones hidden away here in N.I, 20vt and vr6 conversions etc (I've still got a vr6 lol) but try buying a good one now under £10k!! 😭😂
Gold! The only one breaking out in a sweat was Ethan! 🤣 Misha, Jack & the GTI just cruised along like it was a drive out in the countryside on a Sunday afternoon! 😂
My aunt, Sister Eugenia often tells me a funny story after a couple of pints of port wine. She once met Walter Röhrl at an alpaca farm and he took her for a spin on/in his UR. This event changed her in much the same way this film changed me. I will never look at a bicycle again. Keep up the work and remember, old velour should never be neglected.
i have used the term "rust is lighter than carbon fiber" since 2000 when i ripped a mk1 cabriolet around the Ring for well over 100 laps in total. ive been in VW for over 25 years, and the mk2 is by far my favorite. i had a mk2 jetta that was a horrible rust bucket, so we wrote all over the body with sharpie markers with little jokes about the rust. "old VWs never die, they just quietly rust" and "rusty nuts" on the rear valance, and "is my rust showing?" and "i know it's ugly, but it RUNS!"
This lap was literally like me and my wife on our daily commute in my MK7.5 🤣 Also, I felt a little bad for the poor old Golf. Imagine, someone loves you and stores you. Someone else finds you after decades and patches you up. Then you're hauled out to the freak'n Nordschleife! OMFG! And you got a guy driving you who knows his business and the track like few people ever will....omg it's your time in the sun! Your moment to shine! *angles singing* *rays of sun on your body*.......wait, why is the other guy losing his shit so badly???
This is amazing! Other poster below has a point - you doing the slower cars has a certain charm to it - especially when you've got the nervous passenger too! Great content from all.
Misha calling the drive ...... BRILLIANT, all those extra bits of information, Subframe bushes, Famous crashes :-) Evil bastard but such a mild manner, LOVED it!
This lap really highlights to me how Misha simultaneously cares for his passenger's needs if they want to stop, but also is a lovable buffoon who isn't afraid of messing about hahahaha.
Misha is such a pro he distracted the passenger @7:50 too stop him from being scared to much !!!. Started talking about what's for dinner?. Great vid Misha.
We used to have Golf Mk2 1.9 (90hp) back in the days with highest marked as E-gear. Lovely and fast car back in the days, love the simplistics dial graphics! Good memories..
That was lovely. It reminded me of so many things about my old series II Golf GTI. Mine was white as well.(But I had the BBS alloys) The engine sound, plus so many little details I had not thought about in so many years... The brake fade though... That used to be scary! I think this guy knew about that? That was a very nice drive. I wish I still had mine... Cheers
A 1986 Golf2 GTI was my second new car ,, I destroyed the brakes when the car was only 3 weeks old at a club event at Sebring ,, turned them electric blue with chunks of metal popped out here and there...
I think Ethan would be less scared in a car that's actually meant to go fast. A car that's more capable will give more driver and passenger confidence.
Asking Ethan what he’s having for dinner later is brilliant haha. We’re all used to going fast in a straight line, but adding corners and curves makes it such a different experience, because we’re not used to the physics of that
Thankyou so much for the entertainment after my day at work. I've watched lots of your vids but never felt the need to comment. Thankyou so much for this one.. It also shows a slow car is also fast in the right hands.
This was not even a Sunday drive for Misha, but this guy was still terrified... How does he cope with every day life? Seems like a struggle for him... And I hope he's truly 'honored' because a lap with Misha is a special event.
"I can smell the brakes so we're gonna not use them anymore."
- Misha Charoudin, 2023
_"Volkswagens never die, they only get lower. Or faster."_ Amen to that, Misha, amen to that! 😄
Or you get check engine light
@@FrosenHellno….if the light goes out then you worry with a VW 😁
Needs to be made into a sticker
My dad’s mk7 would disagree :(
Old VW don't have check light... So they never dies.. Yes all new cars are shit, but not old...@@FrosenHell
Car Throttle just got car throttled 😆😆
I thought I recognised him. 😂
@@Azzaro-g6tuser did you ever think to become a player
@@MrSuperG what?
He got Rick Rolled in the petrolhead world 😂😂
It's really fun to see you drive these slower cars round the ring because of the banter between you and the passengers.
Like how all Jack did was laugh and make fun of Ethan. Nice lap!
Alex passed on the torch to Jack.
Yes it's really interesting to watch Misha drive " peoples " normal cars which ordinary people can aford.
@@acalthu
He seems to be a class bully type though which sucks.
In a old car with all the rubber lose underneath, everything looks fast... that guy knew how the car was underneath.
Ethan slowly going through every car guy's goals but absolutely terrified every step of the way. Love him
I love how Misha asked Ethan alot of questions when he got scared, really calmed him down. Thats a good driver right there.
Agreed. Full situational awareness and compassion.
It was a good idea to make him take off the shades because watching his life pass before his eyes was priceless 😂
That photo from Ice Kurve is just hilarious, Ethan is shitting himself, Jack is shitting himself from laughing at Ethan, Misha is focused not to crash into the Peugeot and the guys from Peugeot just cannot believe what they are seeing, amazing 🤣🤣
Best description of a scene ever 😂
And not to forget that the Golf only has 3 wheels on the ground 😂
0:17 🤭🤣
That was brilliant, never seen someone so scared. 🤣
Thats because you haven't seen me as a passenger with Misha 😂, if I would even get in the car
Imagine him in a quick car 😂😂😂
He's always like that. I'm subscribed to car throhhe as their intro spells it with a few years and Ethan is a complete coward in the car.
@@jonathanlonsdale3404 I see you just volunteered. Congratulations!
Hey Misha, here's a new passenger for you!
I have to remind myself not everyone likes speed and adrenaline rushes 😛
You can tell Misha was really apologetic after the lap when Ethan said he was scared for real. Mishas face tells you that he has the utmost respect for his passengers and that if he had understood earlier that Ethan was scared for real, he would have chilled out.
I mean to be honest he couldn't get more chill than that, car was basically cruising for 90% of the lap!
Have to admit tho, it was funny
“Why does it exist??” 😂😂
Sitting in the Lotus behind you was awesome entertainment... 10/10 and I could see exactly why Ethan was shitting himself down the Foxhole 😂
Nice polo WRC 🙂
8:45 "WOAAAAH, we're half way there, WOOOAHHO! Ethans pretty scared" great lap 😅
Madd respect, you mentioning at the end about safety concerns for others, and not endangering them on regular roads vs being alone on the Nordschleife, agree 100%.
Could you invite him back for a lap in the GT3RS MR ??
Thats Evil ahaahah
He die before half a lap in a gt3 rs mr.
Yess please! 😂 but I’m not the best passenger ether😅
He was legit scared, and I had tears in my eyes😂
I feel bad for the guy, but the slow descent into terror was hilarious
This had me smiling all the way through, fair play to Ethan for being willing to go through that and have it put on the internet for the world to see, he's fearless in a different way.
Absolutly.
Absolutely dying from laughter!! This has proper brightened up my day 😂
Can we just take a second to appreciate the guys face in the Peugeot at 0:16 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeah, I mean that picture is complete because of that guy.
His facial exprassion, combined with that calm and cool look, but slowly hinting "Wtf is going on there?" is just perfect.

Gotta get Ethan in for a lap in something a little faster 😂😂
The MK8 GTI they brought along 🤣😂
Drop him in the Apex GT3RS MR with Tim behind the wheel 😂😂
@@hilpi75 Can you clean excrement and vomit off of Alcantara?
@@hilpi75 tim had misha shook, this guy wouldnt even make this first turn lol
i dont think it matter how fast some people just have a low limit to being scared and not in control.
I watched these two good lads pull that GTi out of a barn and here it is. Ok, boys, 288 cam, headers, headwork, wheels, tyres and coilies and bring it back to Misha.
built 16v turbo swap or maybe a 2.5L from a newer rabbit with a turbo kit and we're talking
Misha, truly amazing. Never seen anyone so scared doing mainly, normal UK motorway speeds! Love it.
Watched your Pink Puma video yesterday, loved that so much. Can you make a "Shit Box" playlist? Would love to see you drive more basic cars, can see the genuine enjoyment and fun on your face. Loving the banter. Was loving the Bon Jovi vocals. 08:39
Keep it up!
Not sure telling someone who is already scared that you can feel the loose bushings on the sub frame, I don't know, helps?? 😂😂
This was such an awesome video 😂 also with a closer inspection, at 0:17 you can see that the mk2 lifted the inside rear wheel!!
So many things about that photo were just perfect. :)
Barely got through the intro and I love it already 😂
I’m so grateful to see you guys in the mk2 Just before you Took the car out for its HotLap. Thank you for the amazing opportunity to meet you guys.
The colab i didn't know i needed Misha and Ethan, too funny.
I love Misha's confidence and familiarity, especially when he messes with his passengers' trust.
What an entertaining Lap! Hahaha, awesome reaction from CarThrottle. Always nice to see a "slower lap", as it is still scary to push those cars to the limit (without crashing when you dont have ABS or TC)! Greetz from a 50-ish hp mk2 dude :D
Fair play Misha 110 through the Foxhole in that box on wheels takes some balls. But equally as impressive is it didnt sound/look like you were fighting the car at any point.
The pass on the Peugeot was incredible you could see he was thinking he's a baller and literally got owned that car is currently for sale
To be perfectly honest, Misha's driving is immaculate and that needs no introduction, however: that little GTI took it like a champ! Truly an amazing car!
Hundred percent, given its a recent barn find spruced up and it's an early 80s car he didn't have to wrestle with it really . Would be nice to see it with a bam 20vt conversion & a lsd, good brakes and suspension set up then back to Misha for another blast.
@@ciartdsfa4899 I wholeheartedly agree. I hope the lads restore that little GTI to its full potential, but I'm not sure if they will...
@@blackmore6468 it's a great chassis for a project, had several GTi golfs back in the 90s MK1 and 2 and loved them. There's some real fast ones hidden away here in N.I, 20vt and vr6 conversions etc (I've still got a vr6 lol) but try buying a good one now under £10k!! 😭😂
Gold! The only one breaking out in a sweat was Ethan! 🤣 Misha, Jack & the GTI just cruised along like it was a drive out in the countryside on a Sunday afternoon! 😂
That temperature gauge stayed so steady through all that abuse. I'm amazed.
Became air cooled
I like that Misha is listening to the guy and try to calm him down while not being aggressive on the car
My aunt, Sister Eugenia often tells me a funny story after a couple of pints of port wine. She once met Walter Röhrl at an alpaca farm and he took her for a spin on/in his UR.

He is the last person I would expect to get that terrified on a lap.
especially while going 75km/h around empty wide corner :)
Lol what? This guy has always been a pansy
isn't he the non car guy always in CT videos? I'll say is the most expected to
@@f3rny_66 I feel like that's just a role he plays. I mean he does work for a car channel!
The first person surely? I'm very impressed he managed to keep his lunch down.
cant fake those expressions LOL that was true fear! Priceless!!! 🤣🤣 Nice fun lap as usual! Keep up the excellent work! 👏👏👏

but the thing is that someone killed the old engine so the person who stored the golf did not like it enough
@@bokexd3173Yeah that engine was not loved at all... Coolant system completely shagged, and whole block was cooked 😂😂
I’m surprised how well that old Golf is picking up speed, certainly considering the state of it not long ago 😂
It's a Golf... it's always gonna smash it!
Спасибо, бро, это именно то, что я просил!
This is amazing! Other poster below has a point - you doing the slower cars has a certain charm to it - especially when you've got the nervous passenger too! Great content from all.
The amount of fun misha was having, made this video so much better!!
Misha calling the drive ...... BRILLIANT, all those extra bits of information, Subframe bushes, Famous crashes :-)

This lap really highlights to me how Misha simultaneously cares for his passenger's needs if they want to stop, but also is a lovable buffoon who isn't afraid of messing about hahahaha.
13:00 The look of the passenger in the Peugeot 👀
The bloody headliner. Ethan's so damn proud of that job he did.
Misha's humour is class. It's like he converses in one liners.
When you've gotta talk your passenger through the lap so he doesn't panic 😂
Ryan Gosling seems a lot tougher in his films.
Misha is such a pro he distracted the passenger @7:50 too stop him from being scared to much !!!. Started talking about what's for dinner?. Great vid Misha.
Awww... poor Ethan... Well, he survived! Great lap! Thanks for sharing!
This is a cruising lap…😂
This is absolutely fabulous, I had a smile on my face...
Man I love how that BMW 1 Series had difficulty shaking you off
hahaha the whole video has this big bro shows his little brother his hobby energy. you can see how misha cares for his passanger.
My first car was an '86 GTI, Alpine White, with a cam'd 2.0 ABA. Had it for 6 years.
You should give him a free taxi lap. Would be a really funny video to watch. xDD
I don´t know if that temperature gauge is working, but damn, this VW is gooold:)) taking those high revs like a champ:))
Slower cars are so much fun sometimes. I love seeing the faster cars shoot by you and also the intensity of being near so many other cars at a time.
Absolutely Epic! And real fear no fake 😂😂😂
Ethan's reactions were hilarious.
It's so funny seeing his reaction. Car seems solid for its age.
We used to have Golf Mk2 1.9 (90hp) back in the days with highest marked as E-gear. Lovely and fast car back in the days, love the simplistics dial graphics! Good memories..
When Ethan closed his eyes at Schwedenkreuz you could see he was ready to meet his maker 😂
This has to be the slowest lap ever, EVER 😂👊💥
Misha , its amazing you keep this track alive and popular online for the rest of us everywhere else , top work
I was wondering why he mentioned the headliner in the beginning of the lap. And at the end he said, “I did the headliner…” Aww! 😃
If you watch their series about this car over on the Car Throttle channel, the headliner has its whole own story arc. :)
The slowest cars seem to have the most scared passengers. 280+ kph in SF90 = bliss, 80mph in shitbox VW = absolute white knuckle terror
That was lovely.
It reminded me of so many things about my old series II Golf GTI.
Mine was white as well.(But I had the BBS alloys)
The engine sound, plus so many little details I had not thought about in so many years...
The brake fade though... That used to be scary!

Glad you showed the picture with his eyes closed.
The fear is temporary, the shame is forever.

That was "the old Top Gear level stuff" and maybe better!
I think Ethan would be less scared in a car that's actually meant to go fast.
A car that's more capable will give more driver and passenger confidence.
Misha utilizando el 1% de sus habilidades al volante y el copiloto cagado del miedo jajajaja

This was absolutely hilarious! Brilliant job driving.. so much banter between you guys aswell 😂
Please Misha, we need a lap with him as a passenger in a gt3 🤣
Oldie but goldie. OI love my 21 years old Golf IV R32. Makes more fun to drive as my Focus St from 2020 i had before.
Thankyou so much for the entertainment after my day at work.
I've watched lots of your vids but never felt the need to comment. Thankyou so much for this one..
It also shows a slow car is also fast in the right hands.
Thank you!
Ethane you big jessy 😂😂 "no f**king grab handle" Jack pissing himself laughing in the back. Just brilliant
Love this. Misha has some mad skills.
Loved how you kept teasing him wile he did his first lap.
Would love to see that guy in a fast car
This was hilarious. Love to see Car Throttle doing crossovers with others, but this was the best.
You should have taken him on a lap in their Mark 8 GTI 😀
Hahaha..."Code Brown" in the passenger seat ❣️😂🤣
Slow cars equals more smiles per mile 😁
That was excellent! Thanks from a CT fan, I'll check out your other vids!
Now hop him over into that Red Type R. He's surely going to lose it haha!
Great lap as always, what a cruise!
6:10 thats where the max torque is in the PB engine so .. good
Jumped over from Car Throttle, brilliant lap and top class channel mate 👍👍
this must have been one of the most entertaining laps of all. The way Misha mocked Ethan was next level 🤣
Shows again slow cars are the better ones
Some say the Lotus is still following them...
This was not even a Sunday drive for Misha, but this guy was still terrified... How does he cope with every day life? Seems like a struggle for him... And I hope he's truly 'honored' because a lap with Misha is a special event.
Great drive but car was never good when new lol bless him lol💙💙💙💙💙
The bushing are a bit loose. 😂 why would you tell me that now!🎉😂
