    For me as a German Guy who grew up with Volkswagen it’s so cool too see this rare piece of Old Technic again in Video because I only saw it in old Videos from Volkswagen and Pikes Pikes Races until now. Amazing that you showed this Mk2 again, thanks a lot 🙏🏾❤

      From the bits I've seen on IG, it looks like a lot of the OG crew are still doing stuff together on their own terms. Keep tuned to their personal feeds and I have hope we'll start to see the content from the golden era start to take form again.
