I can't believe that we found the Mk8 Golf TCR prototype in Volkswagen's Classic division's warehouse, and got to explore a supercharged diesel 2 cylinder!!
In April 2022 I shipped my Volkswagen Atlas from the USA to Europe, to go on a tour with the support of FCPEuro.com - the home of a lifetime guarantee on every part that they sell. Yes, even if you just wear something like an oil filter out, you can replace it and return it for a refund, for as long as you own the car! Without FCP Euro, this trip and video - and sharing of the Golf TCR during our trip, would not have been possible. So when you're next buying parts, please check them out!
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Volkswagen Classic team are based on the outskirts of Wolfsburg, Germany, about a 10 minute drive from the famous Volkswagen factory. This is their main facility, where I very appreciate that we were given complete access and allowed to share this video with you.
You can see and follow this great team here : / volkswagen.classic.de
You can see my Instagram post about the TCR Golf here :

The best place to see Concept and special VW cars in Wolfsburg is the Stiftung Museum - find more info here : www.automuseum-volkswagen.de/

As a MK3 Syncro owner, i'm surprised by the lack of a MK3 Syncro. :/ It was basicaly what became the Golf R if you think about it. The MK3 Syncro came from factory with the GTI 8V engine. And no VR6 either. And no VR5. Or even the GTD's. They are lacking quite a few important models.

You’re totally right on the Polo WRC street car - and I should have given it more of a nod. I just always wish it looked ‘cooler’ on the outside, to match the engine, seats, and other fun things it got. Just a personal opinion, and I’m probably wrong about that 😅😅 The owners are awesome, I saw a gathering of them in Wolfsburg at the GTI Festival there, and it was a very impressive display 😀

@@JamieOrr the Polo WRC edition uses a different front bumper as well. WRC rules call for the same (external) total length on the road car as the racecar. So VW made this limited run to extend the length of the car it wanted to race. It's also a bit sad there are no SA-special VWs there. We made quite a few SA-only models that would fit right in with that lot.
