This week Jack and Ethan are going to pull a Mk2 Golf GTI out of a shed that's been abandoned for over 20 years! They'll clean the absolutely revolting interior with the help of the VAX Spot Wash, see if they can get the barn find GTI turning over and running, before also fixing some of the car's cosmetic issues. Will the engine run, or will we be in too deep?

Rebuilding this engine would cost way more than sourcing another one. This engine is so fucked it might be beyond saving regardless of cost as there could be cracks inside the block. The best outcome for it is a coffee table at this point.

About a month ago I saved an 86 Gti that had been under a shed since 2001. Im the 2nd owner. Luckily the previous owner was an older lady. Im 100% confident the only reason I was able to save it and get it back to being road worthy was the fact that it sat for 20 years and wasnt owned by my 17 year old self.

My first car I ever had was an '84 GTI, but the 4 door. It was my 18th birthday present from my parents, in 2003. It had over 330,000km but was in exceptionally good condition and drove beautifully. I absolutely adored it! Sadly, it was stolen after about a year and I never saw it again. So this model GTI is very special to me 😊

First ever car was a Mk1 Mars Red LHD 4speed GTI. Drive it back from base in Germany to the UK. Had it in the UK 3 days Racing a Sierra Cosworth and a Clio Williams round the windy B Roads near Cambridge. Cossie couldn’t touch us. Until I ran out of talent, fell off the road and was windscreen deep into a ditch. That GTI or lack of still sits in my lock up waiting for my son to be old enough to rebuild it. I’ve spent 17years sourcing every part I need to rebuild her. A build series on this would be top tier. Just don’t fuck it up like i did mine!

Love that you are saving this car. It’s unmolested & rust free. Ok, needs new engine or complete rebuild, but what a lovely car it could be. As for small bumper, I’ve had both. 16v jade green, F465TNP, biggest regret selling that car, is it still out there? No history for around 15 years! And a big bumper 8 valve roll out model. Always preferred the small bumper model. Looking forward to seeing the progress on this.

I had a C-reg 5-door GTI, pretty much same spec, 8-valve, P-wheels, skinny bumpers, same candy-stripe seats, same colour, same hand-wind sunroof, same rust. My first "quick" car that I used to blat around the country. Great on motorways or country B-roads, just a bit heavy on the steering. Classic weepy head gaskets meant the block always had a sheen of rust-protection (oil).
