This week, Jack, Ethan and Edwin take the abandoned Mk2 Golf GTI barn find project back to the factory it was built in all those years ago. They'll take the GTI on an epic 1500 mile road trip in just 72 hours. A real challenge. We'll test the car's top speed on the autobahn, see the Volkswagen factory, and then go for an incredible lap around the famous Nürburgring. Will the GTI do us proud?

    Sorry for breaking Ethan, but at least I didn't break the car😂
  • @weatherall68
    I think this has been the best series on Car Throttle ever.
  • @SWiSSlLiX
    25:10 Ethan: "How many times have you been around here roughly?" Misha: "Yes." 🤣🤣
  • @Jahmed5635
    Misha’s humour is brilliant, probably something your grandchildren will be proud of 😂
  • @AllDayBikes
    Ethan looks like his 80s fit is something he would actually wear
  • @EfficientEngine
    Certainly not just the Golf that's been revitalised, but the channel as well. Amazing content you guys have been putting out recently. Keep it up!
  • @andycress
    I love how much of a not-car-guy Ethan is. Bringing Jack and Edwin from behind the camera in the last few years is also an awesome change of pace, so many great CT personalities!
  • @lufc76
    Edwin firing shots with the Chocomel being the best.... Alex won't be happy he's a Candy'up fella....😂
  • @cr4p0tt3
    Hearing Misha dropping a « That’s what she said » in a laid back, unconspicuous way is my highlight 😂
  • @k0r31fett
    The Ford C-Max blasting at the golf while it’s doing 100 mph sums up Germany pretty well
  • @ljphoenix4341
    keep Edwin on as a third host, please CT. Always loved seeing him make appearances on camera from time to time on all the ct channels, so him now fully being on camera in this series was awesome
  • @Ricky26uk
    Deffo the sunroof seal leaking common problem on the mk2’s but fair play to the old gal, German engineering at it best 😂
  • @KHOReilly
    Absolutely loved this series! You guys are so genuine (and hilarious) and I look forward to seeing more content like this 🙌🏼
  • @safegabe
    27:03 The line at the end about wanting to save cars instead of destroying them really resonates. I think during the long road trip with the £500 modified cars while Alex was still on showed this difference in philosophy, particularly when he repeatedly hit the Citroen and when he knocked the mirror off of the Focus. Glad this is the direction you guys are going.
  • @Jessafeee
    Really love the chemistry and dynamic between Jack, Ethan and Edwin 😁
  • @danishghostrider
    The mk2 Golf is a car I love very dearly, grew up with it, made a lot of memories with and so on. Thank you for giving this mk2 another shot at life!
  • @mattalki
    It's a lot more fun watching you guys create than destroy. I thoroughly enjoyed that build series! Rescuing old cars and putting them back on the road is extremely satisfying to watch!
  • @YouTube
    will it survive ? i don't know but i'm sure gonna find out 🍿
  • Fantastic to see you rescue a car like this. Hopefully the 924 will be just as good. Great cars that are always look down on.
  • @benturner4774
    Ethan cried like a lil girl when misha took over 😂
