This week, Jack, Ethan and Edwin attempt to get the abandoned Mk2 VW Golf GTI project finally finished and legally back onto the road. They'll clean it up with a satisfying detail, then take it for the UK's challenging inspection, the MOT. Will it pass and be ready for a roadtrip in the next episode, or will it fail and need more mechanical work after the tester finds everything wrong with our GTI?

    • 100%. Alex was overly sarcastic and often came across as if he was trying too hard to be funny when he was on Car Throttle, it sometimes came across as mean spirited (mainly when it was directed at Ethan). Alex is much better on his own channel and has become a better presenter when he's surrounded by people like Taylor that match his energy. Likewise, this channel has become much better with Jack taking on the role of the main presenter, he's self deprecating and sarcastic without coming across as hateful, and Edwin is mechanically knowledgeable while also being effortlessly funny. The role switch up was the best thing to happen to both channels.

  • My recently revived SW20 MR2 had been in a unit for 13 years, collecting dust and as dead as we expected. She may have cranked with a fresh battery and some V-Power but she was in dire need of resto work. So my mate did just that. He dropped the engine and gearbox from the car, fabricated new brake and clutch lines, as well as replaced the old heating matrix lines. Once that was done she got new filters, new fluids, new gaskets, a new clutch and release bearing, new brake discs and pads, strut top mounts, a radiator, throttle and handbrake cables as well as a Rev4 speedometer conversion. 13 years of sitting in a barn and she flew through an MOT and is now happily back on the road. Goes to show that if you have the time, money and resources, anything can go back on the road
