Two-Engined Golf! Two turbocharged VR6 Engines, All-wheel-drive & Two gearboxes! (Home-built in SA)
Okay, Willem Jacobus wins the internet. Not content with engine swapping his Citi (Mk1) Golf with a VR6 motor, he then goes and squeezes one into the boot! With 400kW and 800Nm, it's also an absolute rocket.
Here's Willem's story of how he built his dream performance car.

Oom Johan tuned the car on his four-wheel--drive dyno. It's nogal quiet.
Willem is the type of person you DONT want to race at the robots, cause if he loses to you, best believe that he is getting a third VR6 for this golf 😂😂😂

you made me laugh, I can imagine the conversation in a soap opera, "Wife, I know we chucked the kids out to put the extra engine in the boot, but now I need the passenger seat too for the 3rd engine", "You love me more than that chor", "It isn't true, skat, I'll buy a trailer, a V8 trailer, OK?", fx:romantic music :)
I like how owners of tuned cars are so responsible on the roads 😅😅😅😅 While the rest of us in stock cars push the cars like there is no tomorrow.

I'm giving your comment a thumbs down because I think you are wrong not because I hate you :) ; have you seen the electric cars drag racing in other places ? if you consider the speed of development, I reckon electrics will beat petrol and diesel fuelled vehicles within months not years. Super fuels are another story, of course.

@@wmtarr886 nah South Africa isn't about just performance , go look at the most popular cars here , it's all cars that produce amazing sound , electric cars are good as a grocery getter an everyday car , marketing it as a performance car just doesn't fit well with me and the vast majority of South Africans , no real car enthusiast will ever buy an electric car over a combustion car especially when you can buy every legendary south african staple car for the price of an electric car you can buy a VR6 a BMW E30 , a Opel Superboss you can buy a VVL or a Vtec and so on , it's not all about performance , also the engineering behind a combustion engine is way more interesting way more complicated everything has a purpose everything has to work together and also you can fill the petrol tank far faster then any electric car , so please South Africans that buy electric cars is only gonna be super rich people and people that has enough money to use an Electric car as a grocery getter and have their combustion Engines at home nobody besides rich people will only have electric cars

My favorite two engines small car is a Honda CRX approximately the late 90s? It's got the standard stock front engine still working and a blown Oldsmobile 455 in the rear. They both work independently. Sometimes all he has to do is start up the rear engine and the race is over. Really cool solution to keeping the car streetable
Do any of you remember SABC 3 Car Torque did a review of the 2L 16v twin engine mk1? I don't know if that was Robbie's car? I was still in school and remembered thinking that car was a unicorn. Sadly that car burned at some point. Anyway this car tops that one 10nil! Well done man you built a Unicorns, unicorn!

I've said before, I'm here for the stories not the reviews, I'm a few seconds in and I've got a one-eyed guy with a two engine golf, of course I'm going to watch the whole craziness of the story ! crazy car, as the gentleman says @ ~8:30 more than enough power for a little car, never mind the complexities of two clutches (if I understand the way things work correctly); I also like the fact the guy can talk in his car, so often someone makes a car that is special but it is useless in any social sense and demands earphones to say hello to a lady, etc.
How the fuck is he so calm about everything ....yah two vr6 turbos its nothing man...😁

Awesome! Super impressive build. A couple of questions: 1) Does the original front radiator provide cooling for both engines, if not how Is the rear engine cooled. 2) do you run an alternator on the rear engine or rely solely on the front engine’s alternator?

amazing how all car guys think the same across the world
Very cool Golf, but where is the picture taken almost at the beginning of the film where it is over a nice view of mountains and a car parking? 😊 Very nice, aren't they! 😛
Beautiful build! You are a Legend! when you say 400Kw, are you talking alltogether or per engine?
Very wild, it would be cool to just have the back engine like a Cleo V6.
But why didn't you let us experience the sound in full? Also would be good to see the car at full tilt
Great show , I think would be more exciting if you showed us 0-100km , racing up to other competitive cars so we see the real value of the car
