    "proper faff" .. as a speaker of American English I always enjoy learning about the origins of my language by e.g. watching your videos Calvin, and observing details about how that has evolved and modernized. I know it's not necessarily A car related comment but thanks for sharing all of this conversation too.

    Them later R wheels suit the golfs so much better than the 5 spoke one! Looks great Cal! Just waiting on bad news

    • @Mac_F87

      Pretoria’s where an option over the Cadiz from the beginning. The only reason loads of R’s have Cadiz is they were flying out of dealerships on PCP. I specced the Pretoria’s on my 14 plate Golf R the Cadiz are horrible to look at. 😂

  • @TIM612826
    @TIM612826 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    You're so lucky Calv having a friend like Will. He's done an awsum job. Be really interesting to know how much it did cost, even though it might be painful 😬

  • @mugen-r4084
    @mugen-r4084 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I think we'll all be interested in seeing video about total cost, I believe it may even do better and reach more people tbh, as with right title it could bang and get few subs in.
    Either way good to see it back on road.

    Funnily enough I’ve recently been re-watching your old videos of this car when you bought it off the legend which is Arthur 3 years ago. The car looks better than new again. Great job.

    Calvin front offside wing looks very very slightly different shade. Shame as it's had ££££££ spent on it. Might just be the sun hitting it at the wrong angle. Fandabadozy motor.

    Maybe you could put a throttle limiter into protect the car while its new parts are settling in, then remove that restriction, to lessen the risk?

    So what I’m unsure of with the clutch packs is why you just can’t send it I know will said they need bedding In what happens when you buy a new car with a dct box and 500ubhp and you nail it from day 1 and it’s fine ? What’s the difference ? Generally interested

    • @Scarface0161
      @Scarface0161 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @mrwells123456789
      @mrwells123456789 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      cory cook I disagree with that and even more so with the dsg box those clutch packs put up with a lot less than an average single plate clutch I’m yet to kill a clutch due to abuse from day 1 obviously I’m not doubting will and what he says just with so many cars out there running dsg style box’s with upwards of 500bhp being nailed from day 1 with no issues
