Best Daily for £1000 Challenge

[@SLMediaie]

Edwin has been an absolute addition to the channel. It almost feels like he’s been here for years already. Big props

[@NuSpirit_]

Right? I was at first like "no... no one can replace Alex" but now? I like him a lot and he works well with others.

[@thebigbowler]

Edwin's been with the channel a long time. He did the cool motorsport stories, but so much better seeing him infront of the camera letting that personality come out.

[@DoubleDeckerAnton]

Edwin is just such a natural...him and Ethan on this video are hilarious together.

[@crjmccc]

I know right, he's a good presenter and a car guy. Now if they could just get rid of Ethan who doesn't work as a car guy/straight man - he's just a boring middle manager type that detracts from the good work of Jack and Edwin.

[@schwuzi]

​@@crjmccc i will protect ethan at all costs

[@619LAzaros]

All those years in the channel i think it the first time i see Ethan genuinely happy about a Car. He is an everyday character but that car brought his Car Spirit to surface. So proud for him ✌️

Absolutely love where Car Throttle is right now, this is by far the best content they've been making... the chemistry between Ethan, Jack and Edwin is just perfect. Keep it up, chaps!

[@ThermalAbuse]

ethan is hilarious without forcing it, what an absolute lad and a half.

[@Liamduffers2]

"I'll probably increase the tread on these" has got to be one of Ethan's best lines 😅

Proud of Ethan! You guys have been smashing the content recently, keep it up!

[@---Adam]

New front badge and set of plates will lift it even more! That E46 looks tidy!

A set of non-dating plates would be better, it would hide its age very well

Love Edwin, he really brought this video to life when Ethan was browsing, also Ethan, i'd sort of hint at looking for a cheap aftermarket stereo, so that you can run google maps/waze/android auto/dab radio

Top tier content. Would love to see even more of these!

[@epic_ruler0181]

Genuinely loved this episode seeing "boring" or daily cars getting alittle spruced up is nice we often forget that not all the hype cars we see now weren't always hype some started as normal cars someone decided to give alittle extra love and other people saw it and realized you can make anything nice I'd love to see more of Ethans Skoda with small mod like a new shift cover and stuff because it keeps thing grounded as this is a car anyone can own

[@kevinrobertson3513]

Yesssss promoted to big boy league now!!! Was un-sure of Edwin to start with but man what a great friend and guy knowing youd love the bars and roof rack brought a happy tear to my eye ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@simonaplin4031]

£1000 for all that. That's a crazy good buy! And you made it look even better with the wheels and suspension

[@ghomerhust]

as a 25 year lover of vws, i totally approve of this one as well. the 1.9 is a fantastic engine, and an estate is just so useful and handy. its super clean, and obviously well kept. i'd drive it for sure!

[@0tispunkm3y3r]

Yeah not gonna go far wrong with a VW 1.9tdi. Get it on veg oil and it's mega cheap motoring.

[@DanRVP]

Get Edwin to pick out mods for the whole team’s daily drivers.

[@melvy211]

Well done Ethan. Great choice and the mods look awesome!

[@chinamannomad]

A wonderful, sensible and practical purchase of great value! Sensible upgrades too! Congratulations!

[@Mambaman69]

Edwin and Ethan are a charmingly funny duo. Got to love the playful banter, plus that car is looking mint. Top job

[@iandavid7730]

Much like TG, the content is second to the dynamic and Edwin is just a star that compliments the other two perfectly. Who would have thought Alex would turn out to be the Jason Dawe of the show.

[@Piner5074]

Genuinely a good looking car. Although I’m pretty sure the mods cost more than the car.

[@chrishart8548]

I'm absolutely sure they did. The car was only £1k wheels, suspension, alone would cost more than that.

[@T0MM0-Lds]

Absolute props to Edwin, absolute champ of a man and such an asset to CT! Love the M3 mate, stunning motor. All the best lads

[@joemagliocco6153]

Absolutely top tier content, clicked immediately. Edwin has been a great addition for the channel and this trio is top class. Genuinely love Ethan’s car, up there with Jack’s Saab for a car I’d love to daily myself. Keep up the great work ❤

Please do not take Edwin away from us. He's such a treasure for this channel!

[@sirrevalot2543]

Great video guys!!! Wagons are soo good, we never got the Skoda brand of the VAG in the US but we in get the Jetta MK4 MK5 MK6 and MK7 Wagons, B3 B4 B5 B5.5 B6 Passaratti wagon. I owned a B5.5 in the 1.8T 4mo a.k.a. quattro 5 speed which in this combo was actually very rare, if my memory serves me correctly only 450 units ordered/sold here in the US. Currently own a MK7 GSW TEEDEEEYE, bought it new and it has seen some unusual duty of plenty autocross and a track day. Cool car Ethan, enjoy and thanks mates for cool content on the tube. Throttle down from Chicago ✌️

[@jdkap201]

Not all old VAG 1.9 TDI are automatically PD's. Few people know that Skoda also produced a 1.9 w/ electronic injection, the 110 BHP variant w/ motor code AHF between 1997 and 2006.

[@StrawberryYobert]

and ASV/ALH 110 engines are mechanically fuel pump driven non-PD (VE?)

[@joaoa5616]

In Vw, the 1.9 Tdi 110 hp is a VP engine not the PD which also is knonw as a more reliable than a PD

[@j.undefined1666]

🤓

[@WhiteShad0w_]

Exactly the comment I was looking for, just judging by the sound of the engine that's not a PD engine.

​@@joaoa5616Man of culture, VE (66/81kW) underrated

Wasn't sure about Edwin on his introduction, but he's now definitely an essential part of the team and is a great addition. love what the channel has turned into!

[@royliber3824]

Actually surprised and a bit jelous he got such a good car. He did it all by himself and "accidentally" bought a really preserved car with no visable rust on it and one of the best diesel engines out there that not only very reliable but also quite economic. I miss seeing Alex every now and then but Edwin definitely gives them the flair they needed. So now Ethan got himself yet another Skoda to drive... Roadtrip to Czech Republic to see where Skoda started?

[@krecik2336]

Very nice, but it's NOT A PD. It's the older, even more bulletproof 1.9TDI VP, different injection, uses an old fashioned rotary pump instead of unit injectors in the PD. Pretty much the exact same engine Miles had, only slightly more powerful.

[@gandalf5895]

I've bought myself a similar one, except mine has got 4x4 and leather interior an xenon lights. Bloody great daily driver, the torque'y engine pulls up any hill and doesn't struggle anywhere, the stock suspension is comfortable enough, the 6 speed gearbox shifts buttery smooth... no major leaks, no cracking, very little rust. There is a reason why these cars are deemed to be unkillable - Skodas are cheap to buy and maintain, they're so popular any repair shop knows how to work on these, and if you don't abuse them, they can be very reliable. And that 1.9 TDi PD man.... they're known to run over 600.000 miles with no major issiues if you hit your maintenance intervals.
