Dan, you’re going to get a thousand comments telling you what an amazing job you’ve done. So just to echo what everyone is going to say - massive congratulations that is a beautiful car, you’ve done an amazing job … be very proud
I can honestly say I’ve never felt so pleased for somebody I’ve never met as I did for you watching this video, I’ve followed the series and enjoyed every instalment, the look on your face when you drove the car up the yard is what life is all about, totally buzzing for you!
I have watched every video, through the highs and lows, the ones where you could hardly bring yourself to work on it. All I can say , is you must be so proud , and rightly so. It has been worth every single hour of graft, blood sweat and tears. now Enjoy it Dan.
Fantastic ! Watched this progress over last couple of years ! One suggestion would be to restore the previous wheels or get a set of period BBS split rims. They set the car off far better
Dude you have absolutely smashed this! What a build! What a guy!
Dan! Dan! Dan! Look at what you have! She is stunning! Colour is gorgeous, stance is on point, wheels are on point, interior is just the right amount of luxurious and the engine bay is a definite "Jewelry Box!" You should be on the moon right now lad!! Congrats mate, from what you started with to the end product is amazing! Can't wait to see what's next 😂😂 Spot on kid!!
Love love love ...this was my first car golf mk1 gti red 1983 had so much fun, I did put koni shocks on it and low profile tyres to lower a bit and stability around corners, none of the other girls did anything with their cars, but I just loved this one, great car. Enjoy 😉 feel like a right dinosaur now
Thank you!
I'm speechless... Dan the Man you've done it💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
You have done a meticulous and beautiful job on this iconic car. You must feel proud !
Thank you! I am very very proud of it.
We're just stopping by to be another voice in the crowd who are SCREAMING at how awesome this looks!! Dan, you have done yourself PROUD!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Afta all that work you must be buzzing with the end result, It's looking truly stunning. Now get that mot booked and enjoy it
That moment when you drive ur project car for the first time.... Just wow reminded me of when i drive mine for the first time, cant wait to experience it again with my mk1 project .... Thank you and keep going
Now your glad you saw this project through to the end and rightfully so!
Nicely executed with great vision ✔️👌👍😎
That smile on your face says it all, the time and effort you've put into the golf has paid off, you've got a piece of automotive gold there, you should be very proud of what you have achieved mate.
Dan absolutely out of this world,massive effort through out to get this superb finished mk1 gti.👌
Stunning build mate 👏🏻
Hard to believe it’s the same car! Awesome job Dan fair play 👍👍
That’s been such an enjoyable series. Thanks Dan, and well done 👏🏻.
Wish I was in the country to see this in the flesh. I know you said a while ago that you thought my anthracite grey MK4 looked good when I drove through lutterworth a couple of years ago. Mine does not begin to come close to this. Fantastic results and has been great watching. Thanks
Restored to a show car and looks so amazing
Stunning work. The smile speaks volumes......
Dan your vw is awesome. You brought back memories of when I had my 1985 mars red GTI that I transformed into a 16V look alike. Changed the front doors to 1990 doors rear hatch to 1986 hatch door for third break light and the whole OEM 16V big bumper look. Also the interior received the 16V look with black headliner door cards dashboard....she was a looker. Again nice awesome job with yours enjoy!
Brilliant job Dan as always I said this was the best Channel on TH-cam thanks for the inspiration to get my own project car
that engine bay is just spectacular....
Awesome. Speechless. Better than the factory equivalence.
Thats the face of happiness. The end of a journey and complete satisfaction. Bravo!
Congratulations. A great show of mental resilience and exceptional work ethic. Everyone could do this, but not many do. A testament to your dedication and talent. Now time to burn the tyres off 😝😁🥳
That is an incredible build, loved every video on it, it’s looks better then factory
Proud moment. Well deserved!
Happy ending, we've been waiting a long time
Absolutely stunning Dan! There’s nothing better then stepping back and looking at all your hard work come to life and all your ideas in your head become reality. I built a 200SX many years ago so I know how you feel. You should feel super proud of yourself. Good luck at the event on the weekend. 🟥🟠
Remarkable mate! Followed your channel from the camper build and now this. Such a talent! Can’t wait to see your next projects
Best Mk1 build..really enjoyed this series..thanks Dan for producing such a beaut
The series that the mk1 deserved. Awesome achievement on both counts. Give it a couple of years and I think you will have a £100k car there.
Nice to meet u today and yes car looks sick in person yes it me with the blue r32
You should be massively proud of your self mate, from where it was to how it sits now hats off to you it looks incredible
Congratulations Dan. I’m so proud of you and what you’ve accomplished. Can’t wait to see it. Amazing job!
You can put boot rubber under the bonnet where u fitted that fire wall plastic cover on that metal lip and where the plastic connects

Dan you’ve done an unbelievable job. The work you have put into this in a relatively short space of time is amazing. Take a bow sir. It has been great to watch. 👌🏻
Great job Dan! It's been so very enjoyable watching you throughout this whole process. Super inspiring 🙌
Congratulations mate I can't wait to see it at a show soon. Also thank you I've throughly enjoyed watching this from start to finish.
You’ve nailed the resto-mod vibe on this, nothing is quite as it came out the factory but you can’t quite put your finger on what or why! Perfect pal, just perfect 👌🏻
I have been following your project since minute 1, a spectacular work, a large number of hours that it will have cost you behind the camera off that we have not seen, and above all the effort and dedication that you have put into it... congratulations DAN... you deserve to be able to enjoy it now very very very comfortable and that everything goes perfect…!!! a hug and CONGRATULATIONS

Well done Dan, absolutely cracking job you've done!
Great job man, looks good. My brother has Mk1 cabrio 1.5 l with scirocco engine. That was a machine. Your otherwise is perfection I am sure you are very proud of your self. Congratulations 👌
Looks and sounds great, good to see it working now, well done Dan.
Fan bloodytastic, Dan! Knew your long toil would be worth it. Thanks so much for sharing this build with us; I’ve loved every episode. NOW ENJOY!❤️👊
Fantastic results. Really pleased for you 🤘🤘
Amazing job!
Well done it looks amazing 👏
Well Done looking good.
Make sure your 1 way valves is working on brake booster it runs to the intake vacuum system.
Also that surging when start up it sounds like the car is doing self adaption. If it's doing it all the time then it's like u taking of the battery terminal to reset ECU all the time so make sure earth is good to ECU and that it's running to ignition correctly and working thru the relay .
Your work is excellent !!
Epic! Well done
Dan I have loved the series on the Golf , you have done an amazing job well done.
Wow Dan amazing job. That paint amd interior is perfection. Be very proud of that achievement 👏
Just a wonderful job, looks beautiful
Awesome job Dan, the car looks amazing! I hope you keep this one, for yourself to enjoy.
Been following from day 1 congratulations, it has been an emotional role a costar but you should feel really proud great car !
Looks amazing, well done mate 👍
Seriously what an amazing build Dan! The car is looking super slick. Cracking job once again! Look forward to many more 👌🏼
