I'd love to find that in my local yard. The Xenon lights and heated seat set-up would be coming home with me for sure (lol). Those Santa Monicas normally corrode really badly - the ones on that car are in great shape. Some nice parts there !
I own a vr5 golf they normally sound like they have a misfire at low rpm that's normal tho because they ar identical to a 2.8 24v vr6 it's just that it's missing a cylinder I'm hoping to see you do a build with the v5 maybe a turbo set up??
If you think this car is beaten up... I've seen a Mk4 GTi 1.8T recently and that thing....was a piece of crap. Faded paint, Bent and flacky wheels, Driver's seat was awfull ,it was clunking and squeaking out of everywhere,the ABS system was broken and the wheel bearings where noisy too... I've never seen a car as bad as that one... I wouldn't have paid more than 600€ for that thing and the guy was initially asking 1200€ for it. You really are LUCKY with this car.
Yes! Smart move, I agree...that 4motion alone is a great score bro, on top of that, u have the donor car as a reference and measurement/template etc... Hope you'll get it and Miley will be 4motion
I'd do some reading on 4 motion swapping an mk4 if I were you. I've seen people do r32 awd swaps in mk4s but it takes a fair bit of cutting and welding in the rear section to get an awd system properly in a car that was originally a fwd. Also the shifting issue could just be at the shift tower linkage adjustment, or check the plastic side to side guide on the shift tower, if that guide is worn or missing, it can make it hard to get I to R, 1-2, & 5-6, had this issue on my vr6 after I installed a short shift. I installed a new plastic slider, readjusted my linkage, and I had all my gears back.
Brandon B oh yeah I know a friend of mine is doing his right now I’ve been keeping in contact and getting all the info step by step from him. Theres also places here in Germany like donkeytec that will do the 4 motion swap for me so I’ve got options 👍🏼 and yeah the shifter would be totally rebuilt before it ever went back into the car and also would get a dieselgeek short shifter like I have in my vr6
Brandon B dieselgeek is amazingggg and I actually got mine off the Facebook marketplace for like $50 brand new some guy sold the car and never used it lol
That's an awesome price! I got an older autotech short shift, and EIP side to side shirt shift lever on my 6 speed vr6 for $50, paired with solid aluminum linkage bushings. It's so nice, I don't know how I lived without a short shift for so long lol.
Also, must say, I've been rooting for you to get a v5 for a swap, we didn't get them in the states, and if I could I'd be putting one in my mk2 🤣 they're just so unique, and sound amazing with an exhaust!
@@Mk3Smith Miley is special.. don't you wanna use first the other cars like lab rats because it's just one time kinda job... You scrue something up and there's no turning back..
Hi I am new to the channel but I thought the 4 motion only ever came with the 2.8 or 3.2 r32 I never knew they made a v5 4 motion I thought they were all front wheel drive
thomas pearson welcome 🎉 and yeah there’s actually a ton of cars here in Germany they put the 4 motion in. V5, Vr6, tdi 4 motion and I even saw a bora with a na 1.8 4 motion.
@@Mk3Smith Ah ok makes sense yeah here in uk for that generation we only get mk4 golf 2.8 or 3.2 or bora 2.8 all others are fwd think I need to make a trio to Germany soon then lol
Heino Plays nope it’s getting pulled apart lol the car is super cool but I’ve got no use for another Mk4 and this one car will help build 3 other cars. Also it’s not anything crazy rare I can find them for sale on the Germany all day long also in the bora and Passat. There’s also a lot of Vr6 4 motion and tdi 4 motion cars as well even 1.8 4 motion cars lol it’s a cool spec for sure but here in Germany I wouldn’t say it’s super rare
Why don't you buy this car, and make it like super agresive full blacked out... It would be totally different from other cars you own... And you'll have content for your channel 😁
Aubrey Bush it belonged to someone who got stationed somewhere else and it just sat at someone’s house for years. Either way I’ll go through the engine before it goes into the savoy lol
Why sell the headlights when you can give it to youe wife? :))) Tell her to make a YT channel where she restore the TDI, would be so good, because we need someone with a TDI project on youtube, there is noone who is doing that. Thanks!
This mk4 vr5 is a rarity ( 100% worth restoring it ) . I've searched this specific model , but I couldn't find it anywhere . O_O Pls don't ruin it , it could be a new daily car instead of bora.
Fighter Gabriel Don’t need/want another Mk4 lol there’s a bunch for sale on the German eBay I’ve found if you want one. You can find vr6, tdi, and v5 4 motion cars for sale there. Also I need the wagon as the daily because it’s bigger then the golf.
@@Mk3Smith I searched for a mk4 vr5 4motion last year , but I couldn't find anything , neither now ( in my country ) , but at least I found and bought a mk3 gti 16v , maybe next year I'm gonna buy a vr5 4motion from Germany. :)
When you looked under the back of the car I could clearly see a diff and axles. Super cool I never seen a mk4 4 Motion
Abdulla Bali yeah I saw it once I was editing the video but I couldn’t see when I was recording it lol
B5 passats have a 4Mo option stateside. .:R32 are 4Mo only.
DJ Miell yup yup 👍🏼 over here they have a ton of cars that came with 4 motion lol
That golf have very much goodies(cruise,multifunc wheel,heated seats,MFA,4motion,climate control, etc). Take it
Rims are called. Santamonica. Have them on my vw polo GT coup 2013 spec in South Africa.
@BYRON BOODHRAM I have two sets fortunately.
@BYRON BOODHRAM maybe you can swap me for a set?
Bought one of these back in 2009. Awesome cars and that engine sounds way better than the VR6 version.
I'd love to find that in my local yard. The Xenon lights and heated seat set-up would be coming home with me for sure (lol). Those Santa Monicas normally corrode really badly - the ones on that car are in great shape. Some nice parts there !

Your starting to remind of myself, when I was your age. Junkyard dog ! Love it man, thanks RickGTI….. 🇺🇸🔧
Man I hope you get it!! Having everything you need for the swap is just unbeatable!!!
Wheels go by both Monte Carlo or Santa Monica depends on who you ask. Drive train for the wagon would be the easiest swap since it's mk4 to mk4.
That car is the best turbo project can't you can invest , and is goin to be fast!!!!
pretty awesome purchase if you get it dude. Plenty of money to be made off the few bits in it. Headlights etc. Keep up the good content dude!

also don't forget the stubby mirrors.. back in the day it was a cool thing to have
The V5 20V 4motion is very rare and not to be underestimated 🚗💨😉
MB Media Yeah it’s a cool car for sure! There’s a decent amount of them for sale on eBay so it’s cool to see around what they’re worth.
Christian Smith Yes that's true. In any case, you will have fun with the V5. Keep it up bro 👍🏼
Hopefully you get that 4motion. Them wheels will look sick on the wagon
This mk4 v5 4m is the one👌🏻 absolutly

Simply Yohan big facts
Make the wagon 4 motion. You won't regret it. 🙂
JohnVasilev would be dope but I’d rather use it for the savoy or Miley

Santamonica wheels :) i had them on my old mk4 pd150
Put the V5 in the Wagon and V6 in the Savoy...then both mk3s have VR6 and thats cool to have
11:45 the coolant is just on temp, so the oil is still a bit cold! Don't rev it that high
These are the santa monica alloy wheels.
And now thanks to you,i m searching for my șelf for a 170hp 20v 4 motion mk lV Golf at a fair price ,just found some fwd 150 HP but is not so nice.
Put the drivetrain in the 1.6!
I'd kill to have that car for a tdi swap. Awd and tdi ftw.
4 motion for Myle
How much you want for the headlights and rear lights? Hella at me.
I like Santa Monica Wheels
I need those headlights for my 20th
are the V5 engines reliable? Any things to look out for
Why did the send you vocal message...and didn't text 🤣
Why this car is here ? It’s look pretty good
wheels I belived is called Monte carlos
Any way of getting them lights off that v5
Been looking for a set at a decent price for a while
Will Otto once I actually have the car back home I will start going over which parts I plan on selling 👍🏼
Cheers mate can’t wait to see what the savoy has in store aswell
Hey I might be interested in some parts off that so u can make some money back
Santa Monica Whells
Bro don't they got the engine on the golf it's a sick car just build it yourself and get the VR6 engine don't take it apart it's a super rare car
