Most 80 year olds are taking it easy but not Arthur, he decides building a 600bhp golf R wasn’t enough so builds a 1400 Audi tt just because he wanted to. What a legend of man. Total respect to him.
Maximum respect to Arthur for building this absolutely bonkers Audi tt, most 80 year old are happy to go bingo,Arthur builds a four wheel missile instead,he's got to be the coolest grandad in the UK with legendary status,what a man and what a car....
Imagine being on the Autobahn, racing this TTrs in your stage 1,2,3 car, thinking you could keep up, just to be humbled by this TT. AND THEN seeing grandpa driving, without any expression on his face, because he was just casually cruising to his Bingo-Game. 😂
At 65 I recently acquired a 2021 TTRS, at stock most likely the fastest car I’ve owned. I’ve had the ecu and transmission tuned by UM, and added a CTS intake. That’s enough power for the time being .😂
Imagine being at school saying grandads picking me up today and seeing Arthur steaming round the corner in that beast,,great vid,and what a legend Arthur is
I remember when Arthur build his Golf R then he sold it to Calvin and then he raffle the car,someone crashed it and Calvin( Calvin's Car Diary)bought it back and is now almost restored. Arthur and his son Nick are absolute legends honestly. They are true petrolheads. MotorAddicts you nailed it again 👏
The only thing about that kinda power in a car that just isn't built for even half that power? The kinda power and performance that you really need to do extensive checks on brakes, tyres, wheel nuts etc otherwise you would be in proper trouble. That mid full rev pull bump in the road looked like you nearly went airborne, so even the shitty quality of our roads comes into it at these kinds of power/speed. I know how scary that can be to get a flaw in the road you're on when you're booting it and I was only going 130ish mph, this motor would do that so easy. It's an incredibly effective weapon and I doubt there's much on the planet that will compete, stunning! Must be great driving a car that you know will easily annihilate anything else on the road haha!
Arthur is an amazing and awe inspiring guy but in other videos I watched of him, he hasn’t been allowed to talk, either from his son or other TH-camrs talking over or for him. Thank you guys for finally letting the legend speak for himself 👍 Keep the cracking videos coming 👌
What an absolute beautiful video! Arthur's a pure legend. 80 years old with this motor. And the way he says "I'm starting to forget things " aww just brilliant. Arthur you legend mate. Quality video lads eoin always shits himself haha x
All the 1000bhp + built cars driven on you tube,kinda make me think the veyron back in 2005 was a steal at the price, no fuss,no dramatics (other than running costs) endless performance with no hiccups. All the built cars such as Arthur's ttrs (while showing the upper most respect for them) show just how difficult and temperamental getting a car of that bhp to be daily and reliable is.
@@George-qf9vh Which kind of my point Bugatti decided it needed a bloody big engine and 4 turbos and countless radiators to get 1000+ bhp to be achievable every turn of the key and be worry free back in 2005.
@@brianiswrong nearly 20 years later and only still 1500hp out of a 8l and their cars weigh 2 ton. This car would eat a Bugatti for breakfast at 10th of the cost if that. However a Bugatti apparently is as comfortable inside at 200mph as most at 60mph, and it wouldn’t need rebuilt often😅…..
Hi guy's, just watching that acceleration and the sound, I could feel my heartbeat raise, wow, Arthur is a legend, and the engineering outstanding. Brilliant video.. Alex.
Really enjoyed that so one new sub 👌. I have been following arthurs build’s since the m135i and instead of them getting mellower and slower as he age’s they’ve got crazier and faster. The man is a true OG !! Great video 🤟
Hi Guys, just found your fascinating channel and this awesome video of the overblown Audi TT. WOW, love this and thanks to Paul for the drive and to Arthur for the loan of the "beast". I am actually very surprised to see just two pipes rather than the four I would have expected for this power output. Never been into TTs before but what a fabulous transformation this has had, tempted to buy Audi as I am informed they tend not to rust, so that is good enough for me, and then there is THIS! Love this and thanks.
13 minutes 54 seconds you can see the plug go with a puff of smoke out the rear window. Respect to Arthur as always , bloody legend. If only he was king 👑
I love the car and it’s normal appearance with not much going on. What really got me going though in the beginning of the video was seeing that E60 BMW parked on the street. Now that’s my love for sure.
Amazing to see Arthur again it’s funny you drop a video with him because just yesterday I was thinking about him after looking at my old yt videos, I started watching both videos on him amazing guy. I was building a TTRS on my YTC too but locked down stopped everything and now 😢I regret selling it. Love the free plug 🔌 evil GT
I wasn't aware of this car until "Attempt Two", when I saw you all outside Road Rage. Watched a few vids about Arthur and his cars while waiting for this one to land 👍
I have a Mk1 and 2 and they are stock standard and give a thrill. I can only imagine what 1400hp does to you. I can see a Mk3 TTRS in my future and they are blistering at only 400hp.
Sorry been on the catch up abit so I'm abit behind on the old uploads.... Anyway has Paul from BMR got a channel because that man is funny and would love to see what else he works on.. much love boys your channel just keeps on going up pegs on my washing line 🤙🤪

Like how you tried to move forward in your seat on full boost, that’s mental the g force pulling you think it’s strong enough to slip a disc in your back

Arthur is from the days where you actually made and saved money for retirement whilst having a home and a family, by the time we all reach 80 we will still be at work trying to pay for our rent and energy bills not building toys to play with
