  • DEEP CLEANING Dirty Mouldiest Abandoned 33 year old GOLF GTI | FIRST WASH in 20 years | Insane Detail
    This was the nastiest filthy car we have ever detailed. It has been abandoned on the driveway for a long time and its also the mouldiest, moss and lichen ridden car we have seen. A true auto detailing biohazard. The car is in the same condition as most rusted out barn find. The question is can the car be saved in the biggest challenge we have faced yet?

    As a VW fan myself, this video really warms my heart. Absolutely amazing little car, and as always Scholl compounds do not miss! Loved every second of this, hope there is more in the future! This is exactly what car culture should be about, saving old gems, working on cars with friends who share the same passion and enjoy every minute of it while it lasts.
