Even for Australia that's a bit of a unicorn combination, a petrol 2WD single cab Amarok with a styleside tub, pretty much all the single cabs are diesel and/or trayback
Not quite; we had a few single cab tray backs here in South Australia, and a few petrol units were sold here when they first started selling the Amarok, but it is a rare combination. 👍
Tune the TSI before you get rid of it, they respond extremely well to modifications, unfortunately there's completely unique to the Amarok in certain ways
Nice one looks tidy im sure time you guys has finished with it be some weapon I don't understand why the guy didn't take the light bar off and the tints before its test
Very rare truck that. Looks like they’ve fitted the V6 front bumper so you’ll need a V6 grill, headlights and bonnet. That’s why the grill doesn’t fit right. Get some wheel arch extensions and they will clip into those holes on the bumper corners.
Class idea lads my father had an is200 aussie import before no clue how It got into ireland. And also most ships are Panamanian for tax reasons and to avoid certain labour laws as far as I remember 😂😂😂
My project would be a 2 door V6 Auto lowered, just like the initial concept V6 Amarok from VW. Single cabs here in 🇦🇺 are not as common as the duel cab, your lucky to find one.
Nice “one wheel peel” as they say in Aus. Just about to trade my Amarok for a Caddy Maxi. Hey do you guys have an Australian distributor as I want one of your ST full lowering kits, or can you freight to us southerners.
Yeah that's the Aussie sun burning through the clear coat, you should have looked a bit longer to find a diesal one, but she looks okay, looking forward to seeing where you take her, engine wise, love the effort with the single wheel burn out lmfao, Rj in Oz
14:42 can see it's had an aftermarket UK MPH dial fitted to the instrument cluster to convert from KMH to MPH. Never liked those dials, they don't 100% match the OEM VW rev counter dial and don't look factory. If you get hold of an Amarok TDi cluster and need it adapting and the mileage setting I'd be happy to help 👍
Pedestrian safety 😂 if a pedestrian has made it all the way up and over the windscreen to the light bar I don’t think a few non radiused edges are going to be the thing that causes the most problems 😂 😆
So when Paul went he didn’t actually take the amarok away with him? When he took it round the corner to fit the bits didn’t they notice? Or didn’t they care? 🤣
How on earth did they mess the log book up can literally Google specs of the vehicle in question 🤦🏻♂️ when my Silvia came over I registered it Cba to pay someone to make a mistake
In Australia we don't use water.... We don't have any 😂 bloody nothing here but red dust, a big rock and tonnes of stuff trying to bite, sting or cut ya in half 🐊 🐍 🦂 🐕 🦈 🐨🌏

not really, there were heaps of them around when they came out. but vw australia decided they dont wanna sell single cabs anymore
when Ryan doesn't start with a 'Reyt Then' but gets away with it due to a burnout technicality!

Solid burnout from the 2.0L TSI though, haha. Keen to see that TDI swap!

V12 TDI RWD single cab incoming 👍

Yep
There’s nothing funnier than a burnout in an inappropriate vehicle.! 🤣👍
love how unique the projects from you guys are, too bad the diesel R8 didn't work out. Amarok looks so cool in single cab

Nasty 1 wheel spin , you need a lsd or a torsen or something on that rear axle, tho i'd prefer if it would be 4wd

i had them shipped to sydney a while ago when i had my caddy. also had GAZ shocks from UK shipped over as i couldnt find anything local at the time
The v12 will fit lovely
Be interesting to see some work on the tsi lump while in your hands before changing to tdi

The 1 tire fire!!!! 🤣🤣 love it👍🏻👍🏻
Drift amarok v12 power
This was a great idea lads!
So with the V12, is it gonna get auto and 4wd, auto and rwd or manual and rwd?
This is going to be a brilliant project
Love this, so unique, be interesting you to turn it in to a sport truck
Is this the swap car for the V12 TDi?
Who knows...
Thinking exactly the same.
@@DarksideDevelopments waiting to see the result.
This looks sick love it
I just wanna see the forklift truck do a burnout 🤣💥
Interesting project. Are you going to do a price reveal so anyone looking to import and buy something similar have an idea on costs?
Yes
I’d just like any amarok. Caddys are so popular in america i bet the amarok would sell fine…vag group 👀
Great video, Looks cool, looking forward to the progress with this, is it a shorter wheelbase in single cab spec?
Same I believe
Is the front of the single cab different to the normal UK ones? I feel like the headlights are a bit shorter.
For future reference you could have picked up a single cab from South Africa lads.
Price looks similar, shipping might have saved a little
You can get these in from South Africa
I wish I could import a scirocco this easily 😪 I have to wait 25 years 😫 😩 😔
I live in Australia and have never seen a petrol one. Didn't even know they existed.
Same here. Thought we only got the td

Both diesel, petrol and right hand drive
Sweet!
Hey Ryan you are LIVING MY DREAM Buddy cut it out, I;m 51 Now and would LOVE you to FIX my 1.6tdiPolo But i am down in SOUTH WALES [Bummer].
They need to sell these in the US.
Soon to be Classic retro shot of filling up with E5 petrol 😂
If you do consider putting the V12 tdi into this would you make it AWD? Or keep it 2wd
Which woul be craziest? Haha
@@DarksideDevelopments V12 TDI RWD Drag or Drift Truck!
Please make some cool parts for the single cab amarok TSI, I just bought one
Lol, they are too rare to do!
Everything up north is so expensive.
So when Paul went he didn’t actually take the amarok away with him? When he took it round the corner to fit the bits didn’t they notice? Or didn’t they care? 🤣
He did it after it failed.
@@DarksideDevelopments hope you left them a hilariously shit review for going ahead with work without your permission 🤣

Reyt then
V8 TDi Conversion?
What’s it got stuntman
the pump ad a green nozzle im confused
Lol
👍
How many times did you stall it when driving it the first time? TSI Amaroks are so bad to drive and so unreliable.
Never! It's certainly not as good as a diesel in any way
“In ‘good condition’ here’s a pozi wood screw” good condition compared to what, the top gear hilux?
Yes

It wont fit directly. We bought a full donor V12 car so we have everything.
can i have the engine when you take it out please?
Email us an offer
It would cost 20k to import this to portugal, or 7k if from the EU. It sucks to live in a shit place...
Classy guys too, didn’t rubbish the import company but put the evidence up that made them look stupid and unprofessional
I don't think they were unprofessional but things could be handled better to make things smoother. Wouldn't have made it any quicker, that's the DVLA!

1 wheel drive. Lol
Lots of them in South Africa. Would've been cheaper!
Maybe!
It must be strange for you to be reaching for a petrol pump 😂😂😂
I felt ill.
Is it getting replaced with a tuned tdi plant. I'll look forward to seeing the changes made to it. Would look mean with a lift kit
