      The R has a lot if potential in the drag racing power department yes. Handling department not so much.
      1. Heavy car for how small it is.
      2. Haldex also does it no favours (the nose of the car washes out the second you try to have fun).
      3. Extremely numb steering feel (even in race mode). (that's the biggest let down).
      Apart from that they are really good daily commute to work cars.
      If you're looking for a fun car and it has to be Volkswagen get a GTI instead. Just make sure it's got the bigger IS38 turbo so it remaps better.

    Hi Mat. You said you read all the comments so please just check all the paper work is in order as if they car was reported as stolen you could end up getting a call later and the insurance company would own the salvage, if they claimed on insurance. Worth checking! Best of luck, it can't be worse than the merc ! Ever thought about doing up a Jag?

    Hi Mat. The white powder is talcum like the police uses to
    Dust for fingerprints. But the use a lot more and you would be able to see brush marks from when it was applied.
    BUT!!! The airbags is covered in talcum aswell to ensure that they don’t get stuck together when folded up over time ago they will deploy correctly and hopefully save the life of the driver.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers mate. I really enjoy the videos.
    And love the fact that you bought a Golf. (Huge VW nut here)

Fixed for $12K total investment (aka: car included), then modded to stage 2+ with a DSG tune for a total investment of $15.5K. Much better than the $35K a clean title, stock car would have cost at the time ;) . Great car! 0-60mph 3.2 seconds, 1/4 mile in 11.2 and a neck-snapping launch.

    Most of them lights all come on when the battery is disconnected, you need to drive it around 1-2 miles for all the system to recalibrate them selfs and most of them will go out apart from one of them, but you just turn off the ignition and restart the car and it will go out. You can not turn them off with a diagnostic reader.
    The airbag light will probably need more attention !

    The dust is definitely SOCO, it’s aluminium dust for fingerprinting and has been used on the high contact areas.
    The mould is from storage that level of mould is 3/6 months of storage. The car was leased through Arval in Swindon and probably on a three year deal ( most are) if the car was stolen with key ( millennium burglary) I doubt the car was paid out by the insurance.

    Easy Matt, excited for the re build of the golf, is there any chance you could make the vlogs longer when doing the repairs please.
