    Well. I came to the TT game a little late, but I want to thank you. Your videos have helped me more than once. I am in the US and it is getting hard to get the parts I need already. I have had both fun and some grief wrenching on the TT. Not quite done yet. I wish the US had the following that your side of the pond has. Best of luck on your next rig. Be well. Cheers.

    • @TheParrottBros
      @TheParrottBros  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I had a roadster last year, loved it and you gave me some great help with it. Ended up swapping for what turned out to be a rot-box of a Sharan for 'family adventures' with my partner at the time. Of course the decision turned out to be a wrong one, and myself and my son have yearned for another ever since. Sadly not in a position to get another now, but the moment I can.....

    Dom, you're a Mk1 TT legend! I only discovered your content a couple of years ago (after owning TTs since 2004). You've done a superb job on creating a massive following for the TT Mk1 in the UK with really insightful, honest advice for those who already own and those who are considering owning. Always great to see yourself and the range of your TT's at the local events. Your video content has always been excellent from fixing them to showing them off! Thanks for everything you have done over the years and hopefully see you at a TT event as an "honoured guest"! :)

    Your videos are a big reason behind my decision to get a MK1 V6. Many people recommend the MK2 but your passion for the classic version really swung it for me. I don’t regret it. I must say it’s pretty surprising and sad that you’ve made this decision but such is life ….

But I’m rebooting the videos and soldiering through. Just welded a 3” sports cat in and she’s off for MOT again Friday 🤞 once she’s built though will be fully stripped chassis acid dipped and built back up for the collection in dry storage soon to be followed by my next project 😉 which is Japanese not German.

    I don’t think you will regret it. I sold mine as you know and I don’t regret it one bit. They’re old cars now and compared to modern stuff they just don’t cut it in my opinion. You’ll be a miss in the community though as you’ve really been pivotal. Good man.

    I feared the worst when you started on the kit car and it's come true!
    Real shame we're not going to see as much TT enthusiam from you but I totally get the reasons. Both yourself and BWS have kept me on point with my TT for the last few years and I now feel I may have to change too. However, Ifear that all I'll want is my TT back (I've had it 22 years) if I change it.
    I wish you all the best in your new adventures...but I am sad.
    Last point...your steering looks lot lighter than mine which is very heavy. Have you renewed the pump or anything? There's no way my mk1 could be steered with a finger, it needs 2 hands. What did you do??

    • @TheParrottBros
      @TheParrottBros  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think you should keep it peter, your 22 years into ownership there is no going back, both my self and bryn will likely be creating tt content for many years to come on and off as it is and always will be a passion of mine,
      Steering wise your pump could be on its way out, tt steering is always a little heavy but should not be that bad. do you know anyone else with a tt that you could try theirs?
