100% honest video, poor chap bought a lemon, but there are numerous warning flags jumping out very quickly, I like how you expose the warts and all in vid, turning it from a lemon into either a rebuild or a parts car. Nice work 👍👍🚗🚗

Very kind of you Dean to take that on. Evan as novice would of thought of the mismatch lights and lack of wheel liners. Hope it sells, think I’d rather see see the rs6 put back together, even if nothing in it vs. Parts

That light with the sliver inserts will be a golf r one as these came with full black headlights if specked With the 19” wheels from factory, 18s came with the sliver inserts. Weird I know but true

Do it your self dean bring it back to life.. you’r the man

they didnt fit the rear crossmember for one reason, the rear chassis leg is screwed so they couldnt fit the cross member to begin with, id be fuming if i found that damage after buying it

Wow - shocking repair and MOT testing station should be reported for not picking that up. If someone is good to take it on as a project then great, but i'd also like to see you fix it up properly Dean.

Drivers side sideskirt seems missing too. Damn that's a rough car.

Do you EVER finish a car or do just KEEP on BUYING more 🤣

You have been building a brand for salvage repairs done right 👍, I wouldn't go anywhere near this, as if you sell it and something bad happens, it would be very damaging to your brand image. It wouldn't even be your fault, as you didn't repair it, but that wouldn't matter. I would break it if I were you. You could probably get 2 or 3 salvage Golf R's repaired out of that lemon.

Report last MOT, testing station. Also put money on the MOT being without the car being actually looked at..🤔

I think someone saw your videos and must have thought I can do that too. So they bought an overpriced damaged car, tried to repair it and did came to the conclusion that they couldn't make a profit on it. So they desided to cut the corners and found for a shady MOT test station and paid a little bit extra. Then they looked for a young guy who want a cool sporty car from his frist money and exited as he was bought it. After a weekend or a show on someone else he started to realise that he bought a mistake.

Not forgetting the gaping hole in the floorpan. Its horrific quite frankly. I would not want to be in a crash in that car again, given the steel has already been crumpled once. Its a basket case.....

If I had the money, I’d deffo LOVE this car! I have a mk5 golf gti currently that needs love, but this is an awesome car that needs some love

Add a side skirt (driver’s side) to the list, though that’s the least of its worries.

Dean I think you are the only person capable to get this one back on the road, otherwise break it for parts!

One of the best engines VW ever built. These are the best EA113 lumps to use for any similar engine swap.

Just shows to the untrained eye you would not notice these major defects and potentially you can end up with a load of trouble if your not carefull, Mot tester wants reporting for passing that, Enjoyed the vid tho Dean, I thought about purchasing a recently advertised cat S Audi A1 sline, I'm not gonna bother now, top stuff mate, well done.

Dean dont be so hasty bro. That Car has front parking sensors lol 😅. Seriously Dean. The interiour is lovely and its the new shape VW Golf. I wish i was over there instead of here in Ireland. Oh Oh what are you going too say now after looking in the boot. Wow it needs alot of wiring and small bits and pieces. But it drives great. You love that Car Dean 😅😅. I love it aswell.. Chat soon 😊

Hi Dean, great video. Bit of constructive feedback..when you’re showing us round the car can you try and slow down the camera movement a bit. I struggle to keep up and end up getting dizzy 😵‍💫

Wow, I'd always be up for buying a Cat S, but I'd definitely be aware of examples like this.

It just highlighted the risk people take buying a used car.but if the buyer was made aware it is a Cat car then buyer beware. Yes the mot is a very big question, if it's got self leveling headlights surely headlight washers have to be working. But that could of happened after mot . Poor person who brought it must of felt sick. A great video.

Bradford special

Chrome lined lights were on the 6Rs with 18" wheels, the black lined headlights were on those that came from the factory with 19s. Considering the driver's side taillight isn't sequential, this prob had damage all the way down that side and they didn't bother matching the heads and tails.

The front wheels will be off a scirocco r. They have a different offset to the golf ones but the same design.

The garage that moted that car want investigating! I'm shocked you gave 5k for it as well if I'm honest

I’d definitely have that for work it is what it is

With the window Try going all the way to the bottom the hold the button down for 5sec then all the way to the top and hild the bottom up for 5 sec and see if thay works Everytime I disconnect my battery on my S3 this happens and the window only goes up cm at a time till you rest it. Basically tells the window were top and bottom is

Be a good candidate to turn into a Track car, at least if it ends the wrong way up it won't matter. Also you missed the hole in the floor that needs repairing from your list.

That needs stripping for parts and the shell crushing.

Looks like Mahmood from Halifax special, I have a Jag XF repaired as badly.

Get that testing station reported to the dvsa with all that evidence and break that car for spares coz that’s all it is good for and get the shell crushed.that car is a death trap and should not have been put back on the road. I’ve been in the motor trade for 20 years and I have never ever seen a car as shoddy as that in my life.well done for spotting this

The sad part is that the damage probably wasn’t even that bad to begin with. Somebody with some spare time could probably strip it down and build it back up nicely, but considering the millage and the fact that these aren’t collectible. It should just be parted out .. really sad. If you fix it I’ll watch though I’m not hard to convince. There’s a skirt missing hahahaha.

I think it was a better buy and probably less work to fix when it was damaged, it’s much more work now to fix it after it’s been butchered like it has been. Only one thing it’s good for and it involves no longer being on the road to screw over another owner

how did that car pass MOT? 😲 that trunk repair is just magnificient 😀

A friend of mine got his BMW 140i smashed into front end really bad but insurance are fixing it and not writing it off!! seems to happen more often this now which could be dangerous. Car vertical is a good app for checking history of crashes repairs etc etc.

Both golf r headlights, silver came with the cars with 18s black for cars with the 19” wheel package.

Frankensteins monster comes to mind .if it was mine I would part it. What a bodge job

I bought a cat s repaired fiesta st line from a garage on Rood End road, Oldbury, Birmingham, b688sr. On further inspection after buying problems upon problems, breaking noises, panels not aligned, tyre edges looked like they were cut with a Stanley blade! Wires hanging from bottom of bumper, a new windscreen had been fitted, but wipers didn't line up with it, because of cowboy repair. I'm still sorting these issues out today. Avoid these sellers, just wanted my money.

I love the Golf R

A lot of these Repair Vehicles are repaired using parts taken from stolen cars and when they are as bad as this one I would almost be willing to bet My money on this being "Repaired" by some Criminal types.... I would give this a wide swerve if I went to view it as a potential car for buying..... Hat of to Saving Salvage for highlighting this shoddy repair scene.... a blight on the Honest Repairers whose work is nothing like this one.

I think two people tried fixing it, one with skills and the other not so much. I hope you decide to keep it and fix it up properly.

i had golf mark6 tdi for 4 years. Same colour. Worst colour to have even if it looks good when its clean. The wings get dent so easily. Those are normal. Otherwise great handling on that car.

Lol on 7min 11seconds where you rub your hand you can see the whole sills was dented. They pulled it back and did a horrible filler job. You can still see the dent lines

that repair has put me off my dinner 😂

Did the guy who sold you that buy it sight unseen?.. geeso thats ruff😊

You need to twist the front VW badge clockwise to lock it back in place properly. Otherwise it may fall off.
