If 100k is considered high mileage, I must be really out of it. On petrols, over 170k is high mileage for me and diesels, it's gotta be over 250k for me to consider that high mileage.
Great video I really like to see the MK5 getting some love it deserves I think since the labor was already being done swapping the springs I would’ve just done the shocks at the same time because it is inevitable that those shocks will not last much longer. I love the look I owned one of these in 2007 and I almost want to buy another after watching these build restoration videos.
I highly rate H&R, have these exact springs on my gti and was really impressed with how the car rode compared to stock. Definitely worth getting if you don't want to or can't stretch to decent coilovers
Question... why people in uk drive top cars and tune up cars when they don't have where to drive it as you usually get stuck in traffic, only reason I can think is to drive it is on a track or to show of, otherwise I can't explain, own a mk5 gti and a crafter and I took over super cars with my van mostly than my gti
Great video and on my doorstep literally, i went down to NVM but no one was around to talk too about my MK5 GTi, so took some leaflets, but no price guides inside, looking at exhaust upgrade to Remus or Scorpion but unsure, it only seems possible to contact NVM by email, but you and another youtuber called A Ellis gave NVM good recommendations. How is your Cobra exhaust, always wondered how loud it is, is it ok to live with on a daily basis?
You can still smash the game where's the stock wheels from the R take those stupid spacers off you'll learn what power does to spacers if that mk5 gets ko4
Luke mate, love your videos - these adverts are getting irritating, your car vertical promotion I understand as that's tailored to the content i'm watching and funds your video, but 5 seconds after you start talking i'm subjected to 2 'mid rolls' 1st an unskippable 02 advert then a huel advert that thankfully lets me skip. It seems to have got more prevalent this past few days. Is this something you can control or do you have no choice in the matter? I'd hate to see engagement suffer because of the seeming relentlessness of ads.

So what's happened with Alex at qs tuning?
Don't have to be stuck to one tuning shop
high mileage? Does he understand It’s 14 years old 😂😂
Obviously not, nearly 100k it's not even high🤦♂️🤦♂️
Almost as old as the owner. 😂
But he's used to owning near new cars, so 100k is considered high?
@@markrs59 in europe these cars have got double mileage in average.
@@matyasfabian this just in the uk is in Europe
@@bmorris5863 sorry i meant example in germany.
Any links for the drop links, top mount and spacers?

How's the MK5 doing?
A great day of rust.. but the end result is awesome!
The car looks great. Those 10mm spacers really make a big difference. Were they H&R ones?

Was gunna get a mk5/6 gti till I looked at insurance price lol
I bought one before I looked costing me 265 a month for a 2 door mk5 GTI
@@JaredGti07 Jesus. How many years ncb you got?
@@ssaammeelliiss it's in my girlfriends name my 2007 Audi A3 was only 130 if it was in my name it would be 485 a month lol
@@JaredGti07 yikes that’s insane
how old are you guys 13?? I pay $90
Seems like a nice guy nice car too 👍
Are those stock rims that have been machined or can you buy them like that?
I've done 15mm on back and 12 on the front h&r looks good.
When I had my mk5 gti I was running vmr 710s gives the car a more aggressive look highly recommend those
You should have the sideskirts & rear bumper colour matched to the car👍🏼
From where and how much?
Will be buying a mk5 GTi in the next few months, cant wait!
Buy mine
Love how this build is coming along
Loving this series

Guys, once you modify the car, do you need to inform the insurance company? What are the modifications that you don’t need to divulge?
You are supposed to. But don't no one needs to know nothing. If they find out somehow say u bought it like this without knowing it was tuned!
Started freestyling to the beat that came in at 6:26 😅 I need to know the name
Very nice car! My next door neighbour has one of these 👍😊 That scratch will come out with a rotary polisher
Shame you gave up trying to do stuff yourself. Never learn if you don't try...
Orange interior with purple wrap, whtats wrong with people these days.
At least you can unwrap it...
thought about doing the work yourself?
Too advanced
Rear gti badge is crooked it’s killing my ocd man 😂
Yeah keep those wheels they are nice...keep the car lookn standard
🔥🙌
You can still smash the game where's the stock wheels from the R take those stupid spacers off you'll learn what power does to spacers if that mk5 gets ko4
What do spacers do to power?
Lmao I ran 330 hp with spacers on rear lmaoooo
I have had spacers on my track Megane for 4 years and several friends have on theirs too when they are running standard wheels. No problems yet.
Say wut?
Say whaaaaat?
Paying labour and the time and journey and not fitting shocks !! Pay for a job twice.
My Mk5 Gti has Mk7 Gti alloys and looks great, look for a second hand pait.
I've seen that. I don't think they look that great to be fair. Can't beat the ED30 Alloys or the Monzas 18 inch on the Mk5
Think I saw that G80 at Caffeine & Machine a few weeks ago. There can’t be many purple F80’s with gold wheels.
