In this video I try to do a fast flip with a cheap car! It's turns out it's cheap for a reason! A lot of car means a lot of problems to get it going again.
What would you do on this car? Keep going or break it for parts?
It was my Dads funeral today, this video was the only thing thats made me smile all day when i saw the thumbnail, and ive had 30mins of not thinking about it, so thank you, great video as always.
Aww no way!. Hope you got someone with you to keep you company mate, that’s a rough time 😢.
Condolences to you and your family, it was my Moms funeral on Tuesday as well😢….remember the good times.
@@jasonshaw4957 Bless you, yes all we can do is remember the good time Hope you ok. X
Stay strong brother, they’re always watching

Do a proper repair job on the rusty sill. Blend the paint as best as possible into the rear quarter panel. Someone else has already suggested decals to help hide the (hopefully) subtle paint colour difference. Be honest when selling it. Lots of pics of the work carried out showing rust removed, and area rebuilt. Won't get top price for it, but if done well it should still be worth a good amount.
Yer I think it’s worth a go 👍👍
I deffo agre worth saving . Doing for the love . Love is never easy 👍🏴😁✌️
I agree on this. Aim for the best blend as achievable. Cat D unfortunately and doesn't warrant the full respray. If it looks a bit off you can live with it. At least the sills will be rock solid
Make a detailed video of the quality repairs you always do. It will be peace of mind to the buyer and hopefully sell easier. When is the next video of it.
Instead of painting it to match the rest of the car, just wrap it.
Nice video and to think that here in the Netherlands a MK5 R32 costs at least €10,000
I'd replace the sill and just paint the repair and blend in as best you can with a good mop and polish 👌let the next owner decide if they want a full respray or not. Hard work of the rust repair is done 👍
Fix the sill and wrap the full car. Brilliant content
Every penny is worth spending on this Beauty 🤩
You should always wear a mask 😷 and my advice is spray white vinegar with water mix 80-30 mix all over the car and on the carpets and then on the carpet and headliner with mould killer and to wet-vac the carpets after.
I’d say the same, as a painter, blowing it in up to the rub strip would be a good enough job. That and the wing, and call it a day. It’s cat D, it’s not an investment car (well not as much), someone will buy it to drive and they likely won’t be as fussy as the man looking for the low mileage high dollar car.
Yer just flip mask it across that moulding and do a crap job so it matches the rest of the car ha ha 🤣
Couldn’t click quick enough. Love your content! 👌🏻
Cheers buddy, hope you enjoy it 👍
@@ODDAutos brilliant as always. Shame about this hidden sill. Cage and track it.. wouldn’t spend the money fixing it.
Oof. Rough ending but I appreciate the honesty and the balance you strike in terms of technical explanation and entertainment
We ran one of these for about 12 years. Was a terrific car. What did we do.....normal maintenance, also dsg and haldex service....couple of batteries, ( in boot, under a hatch,bit of a pain to get to) Suspension bits, couple of window regulators. That was about it. Very reliable engine. So much so, i bought an r36 for myself ( golf was the wifes car) and i still have it, after a good ten years. Great sounds.
I’d definitely repair it and get it smart repaired it’s definitely worth it after all the work you put into it. Still got a lot of profit in it if done right.
That was going so well too! Can't wait to see what you decide to do with it - Another brilliant and informative video. Great skills and you have a brilliant workshop too - Looking forward to your next video.
Loving this series keep them coming! Oil incident cracked me up,very relatable!
This channel is brilliant. Always gives me a chuckle, 😂👍👍👍👍
2:12. "really bang em up the box". That's my quote of the day
You're a great guy and I loved the vid. Real informative, that is. Lovely! xoxo from Croatia
Just enjoying bing watching all your vids .Good viewing, informative and a great lay out plus i like no adds too .Cheers
Thanks mate, really appreciate that 👍👍
A cheap wrap would do the job nicely! Such a sorry ending to a fantastic video. Nice work mate 👍🏻
I think these flip it videos are great. keep them coming 👍🏻
Was rather sad seeing an .:R32 left sat there in this condition but I’m glad you took it in to hopefully getting it singing on the road again! The VR6 deserves to roar once again!
Just subscribed absolutely love this kind of content💪 keep them coming
It's worth fixing, I'm an R32 fan had a MK4 R32 wish I still had mine 😢. Just love the VR6 engine not a fan of the four banger popcorn 🍿 fart maker's! Cheers 🍻 🇺🇸
Always loved these cars. I hope you repair it and keep it going. Great video.
Cracking content as always! Keep it up 🏴
Thanks mate, glad you liked it buddy 👍
I think everyone would like to see it fixed properly, but just blend the paint the best you can to keep the cost down, so when you sell it at least the new owner has a solid bass to work on, good luck, great video content, 👍👏👏👏👍
How have i only just stumbled across your channel now. It was like watching wheeler-dealer, fantastic and very interesting to watch. Keep it up and I'm sure your channel will grow massively!
The R32 is the car that i always wanted and never had. The value will most defintelt increase, and i m sure decent examples wikk go for north of 10 grand in a year if 2. The VR6 has so much character, i doubt we.will ever see something of its ilk again. I would love to see you do a full restoration, fix the rusty sills, ice blast and rust proof the underside and give it a full respray. Youd be over budget, but youd have a nice R32 that in a couple of years would give you your money back. Wrapping is a thing for heavily modified cars, but in my opinion a respray in the same blue would be the best bet for this classic.
Stumbled across your channel, saw the R32 & instantly clicked to watch. Subscribed 👌
The wire brushing on the caliper had my bum hole puckering 😱 what a horrible noise! I really like the mk4 R32's, would of liked to have owned one, not so sure now.
How have I only just found your channel! Love it. I'd go new metal, paint the bare minimum and some vinyl graphics is a great shout. Mechanically sorted, solid and presentable it'll be a great car to enjoy and have fun in
First time watching the channel, just up to the oil change and thought ‘you’ve bought 6l of oil and are emptying into a 5l container’… the mess and honesty deserves a subscribe, I’m in. 👍👍👍
Just come across your video loved it can’t wait to see wot you do with it keep up the good work 😊
Brilliant video, just what we want, in depth from the very start. Personally id put the running gear in a mk1 or a caddy, sell whats left of the golf and stick a bit of money in the back pocket. We all get bit every now and again, never nice, but turn it in to something positive. R32 Caddy and sell it to DCG
Great video, great work,such a shame about the rust,such a brilliant golf to drive,i would do the rust and keep it for a daily,its a future classic 👍👌😀
Great video as always. Tough choice what to do now you chucked all those bits at it, I think it’s worth saving it’s one of my favourite cars, Keep up the good work 👍
Gorgeous car. It was a beauty when new.
That’s awesome of you guys to do that. I almost got teary eyed. I said almost!
First time watcher and subscriber, great video mate look forward to more!
You’ve got to weld in the sill repair panels. Alternative solution for paint cost would be Two Tone the paint finish. Grey on the bottom and leave the top half blue. It’s an idea anyway.
It’s a good idea mate 👍👍
You are very good at this, keep up the good work!
Brilliant! Thanks for that mate 👍
Have only just found this channel. Excellent content. Should have more subscribers.
Can you patch the sill within the profile of the side skirt, then just replace the side skirt over the top?
Definitely wear mask next time. Especially with the mouse turds, well done. Beautiful car.
Fix the rusted sil. Paint match as best you can the bit you've repaired. Then place a funky decal or wide vynal wrap down the sil and doors both sides to cover the repair and give it a sporty look. David from OZ
Call me racist or whatever but this guy is the only british guy i can watch his videos and enjoy lol, you got a new subscriber ODD Autos 🤣🤣
Great long video!! Loved my 32, was a very reliable car!!❤
awesome find, bittersweet but loved the video!! ive got a 5dr dsg at the moment so much fun and its all about the noise !!!
Repair and hopefully you make a wee profit 🤞🏻great video as always 👌
Cheers Andy 👍👍
Absolutely gutted for you when that rust showed up. I love the amount of care you give to these old cars and really wanted to see it gleaming at the end, massive shame.
First time listening to you on your stream, and made lot of sense, Looking forward to your next output.
First time watching you. Love the content. Really mis my old 32. Would love another one😊. Will be keeping my eyes on this one. Defo finish it.
Cracking video as usual mate 👌👌
Great film 👌 Yeas I just waited too se what you wold find under there! 😅 I bought a MK5 GTI 2006 and yes I did the same mistake, did not take my hand under their😩 1 month of rust work! Now I bought me a MK5 R32 2007 , this time I did tjek it and did find rust in the left side, the prise dropped on the care 👌 Pleas fix the care, these cars are icons 👌👌 they will goo up and be a god investment 👍 Thanks for a great show Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
If nothing else wrong (engine/gear box OK) repair sill and do minimal paint job. Paint doesn't need to be perfect... I like the black sill idea below! Nice vid ta.
Good spec car, Centre consul, leather, sunroof, DSG,
My first video of yours I've watched and loved it defo look forward to looking vack at other content and future videos top job! Defo some profit in this id say even catD the sill try to join it below the sill cover line to avoid extra paint costs.
The way it sounds and drives, I'll bet it's worth keeping. Slightly different colours on the rear won't worry you all that much - fixing it would be the way to go!
12:12 lolol 13:10 oh dear, nothing worse than trying to be ultra careful and then making a complete mess. 24:10 Ratatouille's house!! Green mould is a nightmare I'm amazed you didn't wear a mask. It was all going so well until 31:36. Defo use it as a track car and have some fun. Great content.
Ha ha looked like chocolate 🤣
And I thought Italian cars were just the worst for rust and random wear issues. I'm actually surprised this came through that amount of neglect and still was a car. Thanks for demonstrating that buying a car, as a punt, on doing a bit of a flip and building your funds into going higher, is really a risky gamble at time. And when it starts to go wrong, how to ethically try and handle it. Respect for not hiding its faults and making someone else's life a nightmare. I like surprises, but only the good ones...
Oh dear. Typical Mk5 golf though, they rot worse than the mk3s did. Cat D just isn't worth rust repair if paying professional rates... but you might be able to save some money there. Can't the repair just be blended under the bump strip? Edit to add - the wrap idea is neat one, as it is CAT D there is no point keeping it original. I always thought white looks nice on Mk5s Now you know the engine is good, interior is sound etc you'll easily make back your money. A shame as it was going so well.
Love the flip videos, but ouch, that rust hurt! Was going to suggest 2 tone paint scheme like previous comments. Would look smart for less cost. In too deep to stop now, hopefully still a few quid in it. Thanks for the great content 👌👍🏻
Any uploads, is a great upload
Cheers Steve, enjoy mate 👍
What a bummer, ive been there, it stings. I would strip it and sell all the good bits, try to make the most of your money back. You could attempt to sell it as is and cut your losses. Like your vids, entertaining and good to watch. Take care.
Love the show, my opinion dnt waste time fixing the rust, there are to many mk5 r32's in the world. There is no need to restore it. Here's a plan. Which I am sure most would agree😅. Get yourself a clean vw mk2 shell, yup here we go😂. Full transfer of everything from the mk5 to the mk2. Man, now we talking. Full 4 wheel drive, Dsg, The works. That would be something to watch now.🤤
A few people got there before me, but definitely repair the car and possibly get it wrapped. Even if you break even on sale price it’s another bit of history saved.
Tip top content , looks like you’ll be getting the welder out then yourself.😬 if able to save cut below the body kit line so it’s not seen when kit fitted back on . Keep em coming 🏴
Another great video .as a mechanic and welder myself cut the rot out and if you have clean metal below the sideskirt line weld it up jobs a good one
Yes I’ll have a go, feels a bit flexible higher up but hopefully it’s clean metal. 👍
Just came across the channel and I love it already!! The fact you post a video with actual progress instead of just an over edited video of you buying the car and doing 1 bit per week is very good it’s much better than most other peoples content form hate 20 minute videos with no progress myself. My mate lives on a farm and leaves full bird feeder in boot for this exact reason so if mice get in they don’t eat anything else! Lovely car, great job. Repair sills and just paint the car yourself, wrap it or half and half it. Graphics would work too, make it a race car livery😜
Definitely worth getting it back up to 100% ..these are earning good £ and you've come this far already!
Loved this project and this vid made me sub, please give us more 00’s or noughties German projects!
Great content as always, thats a given. After all the wk put in I would repair the sill, tart the paint wk up and sell it. With the engine strong and the bodywork solid I'd stick to your guns pick a price and stick to it. Every other 06 plate will be in the same state or worse and run into the ground or worse, eg poss gearbox shagged etc. Best of luck.👏👏👏👍
worth the repair to the sill to give structural strength, what ever paint job your do, future classic
Really enjoyed this video! Do think you should of had a mask on doing the interior probably inhaled a lot mould there🤣🤣
Repair it and wrap it Paul. Jobs a good en 😊😊
Cheers Dave, think I’ll do that 👍
I thought you might have cleaned it first . Great car , if it was me I would spend the necessary money .
Great video like always, what paint did you use to spray rear brake heat shields
Do a proper job. Like you always do mate..... Got me waiting to see the finished R32. I've always wanted one like the one you've got..... Keep up the brilliant work and cannot wait to see the end result 👍👍👍👍
This was a great vid, more like this. Great content. Flip some cheap uns.
A 3 door R32 will be a future classic for sure! We all know someone who says “I once had one of those, I should never have sold it” You have come this far, get the sill sorted and a nice paint job and keep it for a while. It’s always nice to see a project through! What would Matt Armstrong 🤔 Great to see more content from Odd Autos 👍
Great video, I have owned multiple R32's over the years. You should most definately restore this example, even with it being a CAT D, if you put some effort into this, you will see a return.
Love the content! I’d repair the sills and get the sides blown in. It is what it is, just means you have to make more on the next project.
When you fix the rust you could paint the rocker covers black and if you can cut and weld close enough to where the cover sits you could paint it black as well just above and around the cover area in the same design the cover is so it looks like it blends in with the cover. Sort of hard to describe it. 😅
O3 Ozone generator is a must have in your shop when flipping cars it sterilize odors well
That made me laugh. As a r32 owner and DIY mechanic I could relate to the oil spill. I once dropped the slump plug into the oil and panicked, forgot it the hot and put my hand in it. Luckily wearing gloves which saved me.
great content
I had a Mk4 R32 and expected to see rusty Cills as mine were rotten. Luckily I replaced them and the skirts covered the repair…definitely worth doing the Cills and try to match any paint needed…but a full re-spray will eat the profit 😩
Just discovered this channel really like your content With this r32 think you should break it for parts Looking forward to future projects
£500 wow 🤩 you got a steal ❤
I think a repair could be localised behind the side skirt 👍 still on course to a profit, but would have to check otherside too.... Cracking project 😁
Wrap it, great vid just found your channel so time to catch up on old videos
Great video pal... what ashame about the bloody body of that car ... was thinking what a bonus after the engine noise was sorted... sell the bits and reclaim some money. Good luck with the next project ...love the videos.
I feel your pain! Just spent £5k getting both sills,rear arches and front wings done on my R32 along with paint!! The next owner of it will benefit from it all being done but I wish I’d just punted it before I got the work done as I’m never getting that money back but I couldn’t sell it on to someone knowing it was rotten so I can sell the car in good faith knowing it’s all been fixed
my dream car was a astra h vxr then i seen one of these go past me. The noise these make and amazing.
Loving the ford slash vw bonet bit of wood 😂
Repair the rust and only paint the repaired area as good as possible. Maybe it is not 100 % perfect but 95 %. It is a really great car the V6 R32 engine, worth to have fun with it a long time. Great looking car with the best R32 color! Make it shining!
Weld it up and wrap it in same colour blue but Matt finish, will look spot on with the gloss black wheels 😮
I feel your pain, i also flip cheap cars and the latest one (broken cambelt, head off and new valves job) was booked in for MOT and i thought i would clean up the sills and put some fresh Shutz body coating on, well my hand went straight through the sill, it was quite well disguised by the original thick rubbery factory coating, both the sills are rotted about 60cm long in the same place as yours, not impressed, cancelled the MOT and retired to the house for a brew and a sulk. Lesson of the day, get right under the car and have a damn good look at the underside and not just a quick glance.
Bring it back to life future classic.
Another great video Paul 👍 shame about the corrosion 😢 seen same thing with Focus ST's hiding rusted out sills. Worth repairing and selling on as a paint work project if you want out of car cheaply 🤷
