really helpful of racingline! They charge enough for their parts so would have thought could send out a bolt easily enough

Get very tired of manufacturers who insist on selling a very expensive parts kit instead of, say as a goodwill gesture, sending a 25p part pp free - it's just small mindedness and doesn't do them any favours when I'm next shopping for upgrades.

Out of all the youtubers that rebuild , this is by far one of the best , I am so surprised you don't have the following yet but imsure it will soon come with the brilliant content you provide. keep up the good work buddy !

keep up the great work Dean! This S1 will turn out great I'm sure!

Love this car Dean, and your channel is just growing in quality and content, you’ve even got me buying tickets for this one Keep it up dude

I like this channel, because of a few reasons..A) He repairs every day cars, B) he fixes them alone, and C) if he makes mistakes then he tells you and doesn't edit it out..he admits his errors..I have just purchased tickets for the new competition which is an Audi too..I wouldn't be worried about owning a car that he has rebuilt..he always makes sure they are legal and safe before he sends them to the competition..keep doing what you are doing mate, love the content, and you make me giggle sometimes..Pete UK

Great work Dean. Someone is going to be very happy with this one. Looking forward to the next one. Cheers, Bob

Great video and great content as always! Loving the stats

I love the way your inner voice corrects you.... 😂 can't wait for the vw video. the sporty cars are gorgeous but I am unable to lower my self into them so seeing something that's more suitable for me. I love it another great video

Hi Dean. Christ that little part was bloody expensive. They take the Piss. That was a great Diagnosis with the Wire coming out like that. Good job bro. I really like that Car alot. I cant wait to see what you have bought next lol. The Paint job on the VW Caravanette turned out great. Great choice. Anyway great video again Dean and Chat soon 😅😅

Morning, just purchased 5 tickets, great little rocket 🚀 great channel,always look forward to the next post 👍🏼

Great work Dean, as always well done. 👍👍👍👍

Great little rocket, just hope that it all stays together with that much power!

Very nice turn around so far! And this must be the first car on your channel with a battery that actually works! 😁

Hey Dean, That's one good looking S1 & it sounds great too! Job well done sorting out the lumpy/hunting idle & the gear linkage Really wish I was living in the UK, as I'd like to have a chance of winning this rare machine!🤔

Nice little "blackout" there Dean..... dream car reflection...... bugger!!

Top job Dean as always 👊👊👊

Love the content keep up the good work 👏 👌

Hahaha i didn't watch the video to the end befofe asking how to get hold of the car 😂. Ive watched it now and have bought my tickets lol. Cheers Dean and keep up the good work.

Wicked video dude You are vary informative 👍 absolute legend

well done dean another one finished keep it up

Soon as I saw the weld on the exhaust clamp I thought devils fitted that as they did the same to mine 🤙

Great job though, loving the channel 👍

Briliant Vid D Great Being A Fireside Mechanic

go Dean! finally an another S1 episode!!!

It’s always handy to “pop over to the runway” for speed tests 😉😂

Great fix, a little worried you didn't give it a full send it will be the first thing i do when i win this little beauty

Awesome save!! I'm so impressed with this car that I've bought some tickets. Anyone who wins this beauty will definitely be happy 😊

I used to make the gearshift cables for Ford focus and mondeao. First parts to be fitted to the car following body colour. Any warranty or remedial work was a nighttmare. I bet you paid more for your cables than Ford paid ud for ours!

I love your videos mate

That's a funky little car Dean, Rj in Oz

Too his neighbouring lock ups he is the crazy mechanic talking to himself but to us he’s Dean the Vag doctor.

Great little car !! Have my eye on the VW caravelle, hoping the better half doesn’t like it , and it’s raffled! Dying to know how much it cost you to get it back on the road ! 💰

great build- love an S1

This is a very interesting video..How did you figure out that the Polo GTi linkage was the same ? Many thanks Joe

A fairly easy rebuild by your usual standards although that gear linkage looked a PITA! Nice car although wouldn't be for me can't you do an F' Type for raffle? 😃

thankyou Dean,great job great upload,,,👍👍

Brilliant videos One question, is that back right wheel really in place? Obviously im not there in person to see it but the wheel looks awfully far under the arch. Got 3 tickets to win the S1 🤞🤞

But surprised how expensive that banjo bolt was, great little car tho, enjoyed the vid, just got to win it now !!.

Clearly when the A1/Polo/Fabia/Ibiza platform was being developed, they never considered serviceability issues that might arise if a propshaft was added, but I suppose this is part of the fun of a performance special variant - it's expensive, so expect any servicing to be a faff. Seeing you working on your cars adds confidence to the end result, at least.

Happy days hopefully I will be driving it back to Northern Ireland!

Standard racing banjo bolt. You can get this kind of thing of the shelf at Racing Suppliers like Trident at Silverstone Ind Est. Easy to get but ebay works too!! When's the R8 going on competing for cars?? ;)

Great vid. What happened to the VXR? Has it been drawn yet?

Hybrid IS38 turbo on the ea888 😊 Great content as always 👌

the infamous words we have all muttered behind grated teeth SOOOOO many time's "should have done that to start with" love it 🤣😂🤣

The prop is rubbing on the exhaust on the gearbox side btw.... The witness marks shows it pretty clearly.

Great lad cracking channel 👍👍👍

Nice weather for a good boost

Nice car Dean

Just bought 10 tickets. So fingers crossed 🤞

Beautiful!

Great work..

Brill mate 👍

Great job, just got my ticket

whats the full spec on this car does it have uprated injectors what else did they do

Those tinted rear lights are horrendous

Don't you be driving that wee yoke anymore and braking it on me. It's just beautiful. Lol.

Great video look. See here this guy makes great videos look. I kind of like them look.

Got 10 tickets. What a little monster of a car

The rs3 lump would be perfect for this and i dont think many have been done

S1 is a little pocket rocket in standard form. Bemused why Audi didn't bring out an S1 in the latest A1 iteration? Do you still have the RS3? Because you mentioned it in the past tense.

just seen the astra still there is it going up again

Gears work good

such a nice car

That's what happens to your gear selector cables when you try and change gear before your clutch has actually engaged.

Liked watching the video. Nasty council car.

footballs on brb

is that a r35 gtr i see? great vids as always loving the content

Get an stronic in that bad boi ❤

Need to enter for this one

what about that white astra mate is that a vxr

It's handy to have an airfield available for testing 😉. It's a shame you're not able to don't film it !! 🤣

Good video

Ah….that’s why the fear linkage had never been changed 😂

When are you gonna finish the Porsche?

That R35 should be good.

Any chance of putting that exhaust back to stock? At low revs it sounds embarrassing, like a Corsa that a 17 year old has hacked the muffler off of

racing line parts really are coming out as crap quality. Whats the deal with the vxr nurburgring edition :)

I would honestly like to see these modded cars stuck on a good dyno to check hp claims.

Tried to go on the link it says been removed

Just bought a ticket. This would be a fab toy😂

I’m sure the dream car on the trailer is an R35 GTR 👀

Ahh devils development! so likely mapped by fella called ben P. done my 2005 a3 8p 2.0 tfsi there. does a good job with smooth power delivery. they based down road from me which is bonus!

What’s ya plans now with the Astra vxr ? I’ve just entered for the s1 🤞🏻

Wouldn’t it be a hybrid is38? Not k04

Did the winner not take the astra?

forged? hope so

🤞🤞🤞🤞on winning this s1

Eating yh shorts at 9.43 😢😢dont think ill ever get over that roll in the bills for psychiatry 😅😅

Take apart the leon and fix it 👀

Hate to try spoil it and a might be wrong but I caught a glimpse in the reflection and I see an R35 GTR?

Really wish they did a DSG S1

You can certainly tell when that turbo boosts can't you, Tickets bought.

Not they grey GTR in the reflection you forgot to blur 😮😮😮

Surely the turbo should be a hybrid is38 not a hybrid k04 or was that mistake? . The block is still an ea888

👍👍👍

Would you be able to help me with A3 8P2 2.0 tfsi 2005 I’m chasing a wiring diagram (No comms with J587) VCDS report can be emailed if it will help. I’m more than prepared too pay for your time Ollie Perth Australia

What’s happening with the Astra? Thought someone won it?

Can you add so other people from world can compete? Example if someone from other country won, they can choose to get cash for amount you sell it..

i find the haldex system on the audi is waste of time they would have better to make it a permenant 4x4 with a 60/40 or an 80/20 split
