I Bought A Rare Audi Wagon for Cheap! | My Marketplace Addiction

Hey Everyone,
Today is a pretty fun episode... I found myself enjoying having all this extra space a bit too much, so I decided to do something about that. I wound up finding a pretty crazy deal on another project for the channel! Hopefully it wasn't a complete impulse purchase.
Thank you for watching,

that was the greatest twist ending in cinema history

[@HunterDirection]

Haha😆😆😆 idk about that but I am thrilled you liked it that much. Shawshank redemption comes to mind for me haha

[@pjmccracken]

I just love the production on these videos!!

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you a ton! I am glad you like them

[@moynulhaque8928]

Fully agreed, this man embodies the engineer in me and my passion for cars. You sir, are awesome!

[@E30TouringDE]

As someone who did something similar and is now restoring an E30 touring, despite their headaches the wagon will always put a smile on your face. looking forward to seeing how this build turns out.

[@Kaiceratops27]

I'm also in the middle of restoring an E30 touring. Always afraid to break some NLA part.

[@318isGood]

I get so much entertainment from watching these, but always inevitably pause and really reflect on the wisdom you share from the lessons learned through these projects.

[@DustySteel]

I’ve always wanted a wagon.👍

[@HunterDirection]

I love them! Moving made me miss my old wagon too much

[@DustySteel]

Is the cliffhanger a dirtbike? (No, he said “car”) I bought an XR150L that I’m building.

[@Nate-xe1xx]

The editing on your videos are always amazing

[@spac3ships]

I look forward to every post, your production level is insane. Also, I think we share a similar addiction... keep it up, excited to see what 3 door got added to the garage. 🤑

[@DustySteel]

Thank you for pointing that out. I wasn’t looking at the screen when he showed the text about the 3 door.

[@HunterDirection]

I am glad you are enjoying the video and excited for what I have to come! Thank you a ton for the support!

[@FishyEngineer420]

I've been down this road before, I rebuilt an Amulet red C5 S6 six or so years ago. If you need to borrow a 4.2 timing belt tool I have one you can borrow, I am kind of local to you.

[@inappreciable]

Was so confused seeing so much Spokane at first, was even looking at that same S6 listing. I'm even more hyped now that you live here too. Cant wait to see it running.

[@dc5fallout]

The fact you said “Lego kit” in the context of buying an other Audi just shows how much you’ve learned in the past few years. Also causally buying an engine is real once you get another place 😂

[@carloscasares2308]

Im not alone! Love to find deals, plan in all in my head and do nothing 😂

[@1mangostick]

See.. this is the exact line of thinking that got me not one, not two, but three old bmw's... wanted a fun coupe , enter 128 slicktop with a manual.. absolute rarity.. and reasonable price. I then wanted to keep that minty vs daily driving and needed to tow stuff, enter diesel x5 (e70) .. then.. a friend pops up and says she's got a line on a rust free E30 and ... Yep... Never mind the tennis ball sized hole in the block, for $500 I couldn't pass it up. So now I've got a daily/tow rig, a fun street car/mtn toy and a track car .. Now I've gotta buy a trailer.......... You're not alone, Sir.. and we're here for it :D What you've got now should yield pretty solid content for a good while. Looking forward to it.

[@astonishing-a]

The production in this is so damn good! Just stumbled across this from a KZbins recommendation and man, I'm hooked already! Looking forward to seeing this play out 👌

[@jdm2gdm]

Love your storytelling style/art direction/video editing/etc. skills...seriously, Pro level.

[@ryantheguitarguy2359]

The perpetual scrolling on marketplace LOL

[@kalczarobert]

In Europe most cant even pay tax to a car with engine so big not to mention owning other 2-3 cars next to it lol. Nice purchase.

[@justsomedude532]

Oh man. Now I’m stoked for the next episode!

[@garrettb8796]

Restore it, the s6 look great oem+! You keep hitting my old haunts! Making me wanna get back on the ol interwebs... and get back up to old shenanigans!

[@EthirtyNein]

My strange addiction is right! Story of my life with every car that lands on my lap lol. I never plan on getting a new project but it doesn’t stop me from searching and sending messages. Next thing you know you end up like me and there’s a non-running GWagon in the driveway, haha! PS these vids are fantastic, great job!

[@user-im2ol7br5f]

just purchased a 1992 VW Corrado and the intro to ur video is what i went through prior to the purchase. LOL!!

[@artemvysh]

Just came across your channel. Audi Wagon is all I really needed to see in the title, but the thumbnails are absolutely perfect, and the editing is next level. Happy to find another Audi focused KZbinr and addict for potential. Best of luck with your projects and the channel. Newest sub.

[@motocorn]

Im here for the S6 restoration! And the filming of course. Also had no idea you were a PNW guy. Even better haha

[@PieceOfSoloQ]

Wow! Camera angles, storytelling.. love it!

[@soty391]

I see myself in these videos again ... love old Audis too 👍👍👍

[@HunterDirection]

I am glad you find them so relatable!

[@SHWELL11]

I feel your pain. It is never about NEED for me, and 100% about WANT... And boy do I want a lot.. Prob why my monthly vehicle insurance cost is higher than my Mortgage payment. You are going to love the Avant, my B7 A4 is my favorite car to drive. Adding an AllRoad to my collection has been the hardest thing to resist. I REALLY WANT AN ALLROAD.. An S6 is a must buy if the deal is right.

[@Bandoo21]

Jeeez 10k? The hard work is paying off! Seeing u go from 1k to now is inspiring man. Love the vids

[@named321]

Been waiting all week for a new vid to drop! Yay

[@Graive17]

16:9 format is superior, this is stunningly produced! I really like your story telling, do you have a background in film? It sure seems like it!

[@damionblazer7139]

production of these videos are amazing man, i love them. keep it up !! top notch quality

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you a ton! I am glad you are enjoying them!

[@ChocoBaiterEUW]

Love the style you are going for. its so clean and satisfying to look at!

[@B5S4SCHA]

Congrats on the avant! Definitely a bucket list car for me! Great find, those projects imo are the best especially now that you have a garage!

[@dagiboy7]

i just found this gem of a channel. I love the cinematics, the storytelling and th subjectmatter :D Subscribed :D

[@derekdalton5658]

The cliff hanger ending!!! 😂 Hope the car is a BMW! Bring on Sunday morning next week to [possibly] find out.😊

[@HunterDirection]

I've been looking at adding another bmw for sure! The e30 has some big things coming too haha! Id love to experience all the generations

[@hendrikvandenberg]

Whoop! Love it!

[@Mistermadman69]

That was honestly brilliant, can't wait for more

Didn't expect that ending! Looking forward to the next video!

[@samGD3]

You got me man!! Love the quirky editing style. SUBBED!!

[@carbongecko]

great next project, after the garage. love the yard, great grass.

[@Tonyk24]

Always a joy watching these vids

[@joaquimpedro3043]

awesome quality man! keep up!!

[@mintyzee3000]

I just love how these videos are made. Very unique I always look forward to it.

[@FrancoisProjects]

These video pop up , and I love it. The way you tell the story and editing. Busy now watching other videos also. Thanks for great videos!!

[@svrepublic6551]

outstanding production dude, love your videos, My Saturday's breakfast are so much fun, Having my coffee, looking at my back yard that I had work so hard to get it where I wanted and watching your videos, it is very satisfying.

[@donnieb390]

Dude your production skills have increased so much. You’ll hit 500k sooner or later.

[@HunterDirection]

I really appreciate the faith in the channel! Ive still got so much to learn!

[@-Ofek]

Great video and editing!!

[@grantlingley1385]

Like your other subscribers, I have really been enjoying your videos! The commentary, the videography, and the story you tell each time. The self deprecation is hilarious!

[@Driver_88]

Was not expecting another Audi great!

[@anthonyboustany7171]

Great video man and great choice 👍👍

[@LetsRockYourEnglish]

Amazing content! Your channel is a hidden gem!

[@CarModsGarage]

Nice videos dude! I always loved those wagon Audis

[@HunterDirection]

There super cool! I'm excited to see where it takes me! Congrats on your supra!

[@OscarTangoAtc]

Looking forward to seeing updates on the car...

[@S4Tony3.0T]

gained my subscription. this addiction is how I ended up with my S4. Convinced myself that a fuel efficient TSX wasn't good enough and a supercharged 3.0T would be, and boy it indeed is. Great video and production!

[@woodlysaintjulien5369]

Again great quality video, it like I’m watching awesome mini series. You and others are the reason why people are watching KZbin instead of other platforms.

[@GandyMan2008]

Great story telling.

[@ironkcoony]

That’s about the same struggle I had inside when I got mt TT 225 a few weeks back. My mechanic was selling his and asked me while giving a nice discount. After a sleepless night the decision was made, and after the first fresh ups on the car I stumbled over your videos. Keep it up, a very enjoyable thing you put together.

[@b5_roger]

Really nice videos! I'm an Audi fan and i love your content and your taste in mods and cars. Seeing we have similar taste i can say its an S3 8L or 8P.

[@enjoyradiosilence]

The addiction is only strange to non car people 😂

[@rylanclark8221]

Another awesome video, and looking forward to seeing the S6 project! The 4.2's sound amazing, I considered putting one from an A8 in my C4 A6 for a while.

[@ninoroberto2740]

Awesome video! Manual swap would be insane.

[@Howatengineering]

Congratulations on doing a far more entertaining video than the s6 avant project video I just uploaded. I really enjoyed this, can really tell the work that went into your video.

[@HunterDirection]

Hey I am thrilled you enjoyed the video that much. My videos are a pretty big passion project so they take a really long time to write and produce. The support means the world to me! I will have to check your videos out haha.

[@Howatengineering]

@HunterDirection storytelling is a bit of a lost art on KZbin, you do it so well!

[@bangarng]

Niiiice find. As for the other car I am going to say 3 series hatchback.

[@alpine_pro5814]

S6 is a hwy cursier, I too own a C5 S6 Avant. I sold my b5 Avant for one. Now selling my C5 to get back into a B5. I love the C5 but it's too big for me, plus I miss the manual B5. S6 is a great option for those who love wagons and need excess room. 4.2 ltr engine is classic. Only set back is the N/A motor, not great at high elvation which is where I live. Stoked to see what you do with your C5 S6 Avant.

[@Lewuaptedama]

Haha the end!

[@TheBiggestCrazyDuck]

The S6 did come in manual. At least here in Europe. But it’s rare compared to S4 manual. Great video!

[@HunterDirection]

That's awesome. I'm pretty sure over here it was sadly only auto.

[@hobbybymyself870]

i like this unique style! very original and interesting. I bet you going to keep S6 and fix it ;)

[@GERntleMAN]

Reminds me of buying the nicest Touareg V10 TDI in Germany two days ago. For 8500€. Potential is really the word...I see bargains and boy does my girlfriend suffer from hearing about every bargain I find. And the 2.7 is a bitch. I carried the 3.7 V8 block without accessories for 6m and lifted it into the trunk of an A8. It was definitely lighter than the 2.7 V6 I once lifted. Nice to know you feel the same as I with the same "not problems". Although the S6 is not for the faint of heart when it comes to not maintained and loved ones just like this specimen seems to be, you worked on a TT and everything is better and more rewarding. Once the ANK or AQJ is dismantled this far, you want to do the full timing belt service PROPERLY. You don't install the new one with markings of the old one. You install it to spec on tdc etc. Many people totaled their engines because they installed it like the old one. Second, you want to renew the gasket in the "Ruheraum" in the V. It's the aluminium lid with those many screws. It leaks water at some point just as the infamous cooling pipe through the V. Other than that make sure you seal the valve cover gaskets properly and make sure your intake manifold holds vacuum before installing it again. Liqui Moly injection cleaner is your friend for the next two fuel tanks and so is Cera Tec for preserving those basically indestructible AluSil cylinders.

[@HunterDirection]

That sounds like an awesome car! Those v10s are crazy! I am stoked you enjoyed the video and I really appreciate the support

[@Foremi]

Very nice. Just picked up a B5 S4 Avant that is very much a project myself. Couldn't pass on the price and it's a 6spd car as well.

[@kcsd9838]

The suspense 😱

[@HunterDirection]

😱

[@czLochy]

I really liked the execution of this video, very nicely made man!!! Youve earned yourself a sub from me! :)

[@HunterDirection]

Hey I really appreciate that! Thank you a ton!

[@sethmiller6239]

The intro production was maybe your best yet

[@user-rb2mf3hj3e]

Damn you rubber arm!!! LoL been there a few times, that's how I ended up with double digit vehicles. My insurance agent asked what I did with all the cars I have, So I asked her what she did with all the shoes... 😉 Hey, ask a stupid question...

[@Kaiceratops27]

Wagons are the best! I'm curious what "3 door" you got. mk2 gti perhaps?

[@stark4543]

Awesome car, love my c5

[@HunterDirection]

I'm really stoked for it. It's a really awesome generation for sure!

[@shelbymccaul6505]

My guy! C5’s are amazing cars! I own 2!

[@HunterDirection]

I'm stoked to learn all about it!

[@RyanFannon-fy1yf]

Banging intro as always bud. Looks like you’ve got a touch of the Carcaine. Buying massive amounts of parts seems to keep it in check 😂😂

[@HunterDirection]

You have no idea how true that statement is. Just wait till what I was hinting at at the ending is actually revealed😆

[@RyanFannon-fy1yf]

@@HunterDirection I’ve been a fan for awhile bud. The foreshadowing wasn’t lost. Have a great week

[@JJCDAD]

I have those S6 wheels in black on my TT. 👍

[@Qubez_]

Always enjoy your videos dude! Love to see the growth on the channel man, you really do deserve it :) B5 bros

[@loko1505]

what an own style!! what lens do you shoot at?

[@HunterDirection]

I actually use a couple of different lenses and cameras for their different feels. My favorites are my 2 sirui anamorphic lenses and my vintage helios 44-2 though!

[@carolinacars739]

Ahh, the marketplace... I used to have your problem, but it seems like everything on there is pretty much junk or obscenely priced at this point. That, combined with too many projects have put an end to the vehicle purchases for me. Maybe not a it's not bad thing after all... 😆

[@easydayez]

All you are missing is a New Beetle Turbo S they are exceptionally rare just Google ones listed online if you want confirmation I got mine for $800 but that was 1% opportunity

[@Freakybeaky21]

I want this man to be my neighbor.

[@KurruptedDataYouT]

I was looking into getting one of these until I realized how expensive it was to do something like replace the turbos at a shop (they have to drop the engine) and I asked a couple Audi specialists in my area if they work on them and they straight up all declined lol. Cool cars though.

[@HunterDirection]

The RS6 is awesome! This one is just an s though haha, so it's got a NA V8. Which at least Makes it way easier to work on! ...And gives us the chance to design a turbo kit that makes more sense haha.

[@sreed_]

Biggest mistake I ever made was getting rid of my C5 S6. The manual swap is well worth it.

[@HunterDirection]

That is so awesome to hear. That is definitely on my goal list for the car! It seems like it would be such a perfect car on paper with one

[@teamphashash]

Hmmm 3door? So its a Euro hatchback. Which one? Scirocco, an older golf maybe?

[@irviiscool648]

C5 chasis for the win

[@HunterDirection]

Hell yeah! It's gonna be a blast!

[@germanboiii]

Awesome Video as a German i have to say Wasn das fürn Kombi, der geht ja ab wie sau

[@HunterDirection]

Thank you a ton! I am glad you enjoyed the episode!

[@icup2957]

You should make it into a race car!

Let's just say I've got some racecar plans in the future😉

You gave a sickness 😂😂😂

Did you purchase a Ross-Tech VCDS yet? (be sure its a genuine item).

👍🏼👍🏼

[@MikeFicsacardi]

Longitudinal VR6 Swap?

[@Afendor]

What year is it? My dad has a 2002 s6 avant

[@slammedeuro104]

Ohhh a s3, maybe?

[@slammedeuro104]

Or you found a wicked deal on a r32

[@HunterDirection]

Man we didn't get any of those earlier Generations sadly

[@HunterDirection]

@@slammedeuro104 the R32 is definitely a car we will have on the channel someday. Sadly those deals are way hard to find

[@slammedeuro104]

@HunterDirection should be able to start getting the imported ones there too tho. Cause we have em here in canada.

[@Rigomortis-rv8kf]

Bro and I are the same person 😅

[@Iceberg4k1]

I feel ya. I have a MK1 TT 225 coupe that I will never be satisfied with. I can't not look at every 944, B6 & B7 S4 that needs timing chains, as well as every 986 Boxster that comes my way. I am a whore slave.

[@dc5fallout]

If the next car dont have a vr6 ima be punching the air 😭

[@kylepasta]

That looks like a nightmare

[@luislanda2228]

2.7tt swap?😮 With 6MT

[@HunterDirection]

Mannn I was debating that until I remembered allroads exist😆 and would be similar haha

[@kpraz]

an audi 3 door?

[@2pacKdot]

😂
