THE SPEEDO IS IN MILES PER HOUR! :) Also, check out our new collection! petrolheart.com/pages/signature

[@stoerenungeheuer543]

Do you have a web page with a list of all the cars you have driven on the Nordschleife so far? This would be awesome!

[@prospect2664]

same day delivery van ? :)

[@smooth_ops2942]

It might be MPH, but the speed your showing through the corners seems slower than what the speedo is saying? 🤔

[@Ant-iu1kg]

Haha the wheel spin must have aggressive. The speedo was climbing just as quickly as the taco. Looked like you had fun!

[@deagt3388]

Like riding a wild, not mustang, donkey! ;-)

[@VOME127]

man i cant imagine the reaction of the bmw getting passed by a caddy at 140 mph

I was sat on the toilet for this whole lap

[@1filip714]

4:40 never thought I'd be overtaken by a Caddy on the nordschleife🤣

[@user-cc5tl4np5j]

XD

[@salmak9148]

At that point, did you ever feel like you had to throw your car away in the bin?! 😂 Lovely car btw!

[@marinamarinx7655]

then seize the moment and hang in the slipstream behind the caddy 😄

[@Lawnyyy-]

LMAOOOO 💀💀

[@mentox6592]

"What's the limiter?" "6,5" Misha straight to 7 first pull lol

[@zaraak323i]

It looks like that 7 hit him before he expected it!

[@mentox6592]

Yeah it was very much not intentional. A one wheel peel will do that to you@@zaraak323i

[@M3rVsT4H]

The casual glances across at the dash as it bounced off limiter frying up a tire. lol.

huge probs to the owner for being such a chill guy and having done some really remarkable work with the modifications! these kind of cars are so much fun

[@stoneeh]

That made me smile 😊 2:04 Misha I KNOW there's a part of you that wanted to go "hey guys, wanna jump in the back for a lap?" 😄

[@mgcharoudin]

But there were no back seats :(

This is so fucking cool!!! If you do do the rear axle work, just go the whole hog and 4 motion swap it, would be mega!!!

[@bokiNYC]

Agree100%! 😂👍

[@thewaldfe9763]

It's a Golf after all, should be possible...

[@SocietyMike]

Just get rid of the leaf springs and weld on cups for coil springs, then mount a strong anti-roll bar and it will be fine.

[@Random-nf7qb]

4motion in caddies is still solid axle

[@Random-nf7qb]

​@@SocietyMikeJust go with a Touran imo

[@dingdingdingdiiiiing]

So, basically, you were about as fast as a contractor in an unmodified caddy at the end of a 12 hour day work?

[@AndrewStrydomBRP]

On a Friday

[@DerSystematiker]

Probably the most fun lap I've seen on this channel. Wheelspin at 80mph ... in a Caddy ... totally bonkers.

[@DimZin]

The reactions are always funny with sleepers like this one

[@stoerenungeheuer543]

Yeah! This is what I was waiting for - a lap in the infamous VW Caddy! Thanks a lot!

[@backtotherootsracing7564]

"Sorry Cayman, we have a fast delivery".🤣

[@bobbyswain1983]

That were the Perfect words in that situation.

[@DerKaktusAvant]

That was the funniest moment in this video haha

[@bencevarga6304]

I truly hope the Yaris driver sees this, so he/she knows what was happening.

[@Ryankurwa]

exactly

[@flashback0994]

He commented already. @petergrundling698

[@EnabledShooter]

You've had the privilege of driving some of the most capable cars out there. I don't think I've ever seen you with a continuous smile on your face the way you did in this video. That was fantastic!

[@fknbastages]

I thought the same thing. You couldn't wipe it off of his face.

[@CLCIII]

The Owner is so chill and truly enjoying the ride in his lil Frankenstein Caddy! Brilliant! With the proper diff, possibly independent rear and other suspension mods, and that thing is REALLY gonna surprise some folks! Gotta LOVE a sleeper!

[@markcleaver6573]

Always love a sleeper..True !

[@tekkietekkie]

Sabine would be proud!

[@misje03]

this car would be sick to see in a carwow drag race

[@nielsdebakker3283]

It would be left spinning on the spot, no lsd remember.

[@lunarzak]

There’s a lot quicker one with an Audi rs3 engine with 1400 horsepower

[@Fred_the_1996]

After 6 minutes of bla bla bla

[@jihadiijoe]

There is a faster one with 1320 hp i uk 😂😂😂

[@mortimermortimer7555]

Thers is loads of them about running high power , probably thousands this spec only around 350bhp

[@VxO4fame]

Yaris guy is totally impatient and flashed directly and wanted to get past. but on the straight has no chance 🤣 i am loving it

[@cooperlong5413]

Honestly this was one of my favorite laps to watch just because of the challenge and insanity of driving something so crazy. Also, the "one wheel peel", although not helping performance, certainly adds to the fun drama factor!

[@driver46]

That looked like pure fun , amazing sleeper that you can sleep in 😁

[@kibouSRX]

I've driven a caddy from the same generation for around 270.000 km in the last 4 years, this video made me smile :D and yes, the handling and rear axle annoy me to no end

[@DudeThatsBirch]

an amazing lap! very similar power level to my stage 1 leon cupra, sounds just like it with the traction breaking bangs! amazingly fun to watch.

[@AslamGreyFox]

😂 😂 That was as mad as a box of ferrets.... The other drivers didn't have a clue what was going on 😂 I think Sabine would have loved it, like the transit van ❤

[@1981pab]

Loving this channel Misha! Only been a subscriber for a couple of months but always makes me smile when I see some of the VTech stuff and out of the ordinary stuff like this van!! Keep up the good work and be safe!!! 👍🏻

[@juhos30000]

i bursted out laughing in start where Misha overtook that 911 and left the GR to dust :DDD

[@chrishart8548]

Didn't really leave the yaris at all. It was at least matching our speed and then gaining on us fairly easily. It went past any way in the end the van had nothing in the corners. The guy has better driving skills than most people on the track

[@juhos30000]

@@chrishart8548 oh i see i should have been more precise. AT THE START. That Yaris thought that HE was going to blow past that Caddy

[@ferrumignis]

@@chrishart8548 Around 4:13 you were pulling away from the Yaris at a decent rate.

[@lumntoob999]

I haven't been this jealous of a car we don't get in the US for a long time. I love how it's much shorter than other cargo type vans and how the front end still looks like a VW car.

[@Random-nf7qb]

The Touran (passenger version, with IRS) is better.

[@lumntoob999]

@@Random-nf7qb I just looked it up and it’s cool it has IRS but it doesn’t have that cargo van look, it’s more mini van. It would still be awesome setup for track use with big power but I really like the look of this short cargo looking van.

[@Random-nf7qb]

@@lumntoob999 there's the Caddy, the Caddy Life and the Caddy Maxi

[@lumntoob999]

@@Random-nf7qb thanks, it was cool to look at all of them and they are more similar than different, mostly just seems like length difference and how finished the exterior is. I think my favorite is the version like on this video with the nicer exterior/painted bumpers, no back side glass, and no sliding doors. They look so cool lowered and on nice wheels, but with sticky tires, 500 hp, and dsg transmission it’s on another level of bad a**.

[@P3CKERZ]

Pete’s always built monsters. I remember his Leon absolute weapon can’t imagine how this is 😅

"Revs to 6800" then he proceeds to rev it to 7 hahahahaha absolutely class 😂

[@SPTSuperSprinter156]

What an absolute weapon, climbs like a homesick angel on the uphill section.

[@sjokomelk]

Fun that "everything" is bolt-on on the PQ35 platform. Engine mounts and all can come straight out of any of the cars and into another, as long as the engine has enough room. So the engine and gearbox from an S3 fits perfectly in the Caddy 🤩

[@dot7107]

Yep, real modifications starts when u want to replace rear axle and leaf springs to multilink suspension. All others are just bolt on stuff. However nice sleeper 👍🏻

[@ZedNinetySix_]

There was literally a VW Caddy touringcar which competed in the VW R Cup Series for many years here in the UK, and it spanked many races, and many Golfs n Sciroccos...

[@Petrrii]

I think such cars are even more fun or at least as fun as a proper sports car,the looks you get because no one expects it are above anything else,it must be hella fun to own a sleeper like this

[@iro-huncarguy8367]

This is a very nice van, get an oil cooler, doesn't have to be super big because it can cause a haste for daily driving but would benefit. Not dangerous yet but a small bit high nevertheless. Lovely lovely van tho, it's really cool to see these outside the box builds😊😊

[@bgtps4625]

Absolutely brilliant!! Super fun to watch this thing fly

[@jweatherly26]

What an awesome vid! I feel the same way with my mk6 ko4 build with open diff, its a pain to deal with but it still puts a smile on your face and that's all that matters!!!

[@nguyenminhhoang9680]

4:10 yaris say whatttttt....it's so fast

Watching the speedo go from 60mph to 80mph instantly is amazing that van has some crazy acceleration

[@jinbaittai85]

This was hilarious to watch! I was laughing out loud the entire time!

[@TML34]

I thought it was a CVT from the opening clip! 😂😂 Misha always has the most fun in something that is completely inappropriate for the track. Haha

[@-aid4084]

Lol the differential was having a field trip because it was open 😅

[@MsToma84]

I just love following you! Bcs you drive everything and gives me so much inspiration for when im in my simrig doing assetto corsa. Since i got almost 4000 cars i always seems to find a car very close to what you are driving. Makes it so much fun. My biggest dream is to once go to the nordschleife. I got over 20000km done there in the sim, but never in real life. Its fair to say, im addicted to drive this track/road :D

[@ElectroBytezLV]

Haha could tell that Misha was having a LOT of fun with this thing :)

[@matkobosko2137]

Great to watch you have so much fun driving 😁

[@sjokomelk]

The Caddy is a fun car to drive! I had a 2005 with the 2 liter SDI non-turbocharged diesel with 70hp as a company car. And it was really good between 1700 and 1730rpm. 😂😂 I overtook several BMW 3er "racers" on my local winding road, and they couldn't believe their eyes when I passed them. 😎

[@StillShatter]

Amazing how fast you were able to take the caddy around the ring considering all that sail boat fuel you were hauling in the back ⛵😂😂

[@bogdannecula]

No way ! I can see other drivers' faces already be like '' WTF !! 😮 its a Caddy ....How is that even possible?!!? 😁😁

[@philippelemaire2887]

The guy with Yaris GR.....

[@julianbrelsford]

In the US, people use "caddy" as a nickname for Cadillac. Watched the whole video assuming all of the references to "caddy" were suggesting that this Volkswagen had a Cadillac engine or something. Finally googled it and now I understand what I got wrong 😅😅

[@_SB-mn1ws]

Rear view cam is amazing, we need this on more cars in the future

[@ystebadvonschlegel3295]

Just watched the modded GT4RS video and came to this - I actually think this looks like the better drive. Smoking the tire coming out of turn early on and you are grinning like a kid in a candy store. So much fun. Outstanding car.

[@imrvn]

*caddy store

[@Mister_G]

Very well driven and a fantastic build. If you can get that performance from a solid rear axle and an open diff, you're both doing something right.

[@Henry.25]

It was supposed to be a secret, but this is the car that FedEx uses when you select “same day delivery”

[@thetheeser659]

This made me think about the Bara Karpit´s Combo a lot. It´s a cca 99´ Opel Combo fitted with a Porsche 911 complete axle of some generation, utterly bonkers + the craftmanship of the Baras vehicle is on another level. Would be cool to check out, guys are from Hungary if I remember correctly.

[@tommarino69]

This guy lives around the corner from me, I've seen this Caddy blasting around a few times, cool to see it passing Porsches & Type Rs 👍🏻

[@BrassMtn]

Wow that is one awesome build!! It looks so fun!!

[@joaomunhoz8908]

I love seeing Misha laughing! Nice video once again. What a fun toy.

[@Rubensgardens.Skogsmuseum]

I set the cruise control at 170kmh on my Caddy when working in Germany but anything over that the aerodynamics felt weird but it pulled nicely with it’s 90 horses. It was a dieselgate generation VW and the fuel consumption was 16 litres, so I had to fill up three times as often. Small timegains and my average speed was higher in Sweden (legal) because of pretty much empty roads allways.

[@trackingcalin1988]

This should stay very good in the corners. The longer version I think it handles better. The wheels would need about 2 centimeters further out and the roof should be easy if you take the carpet or the plastic down, at least in the back.

[@landrelarose9963]

Misha, those small cars are so entertaining, especially the taller of them. Not only that, they have the potential to flip onto one of their two sides. Whenever they aren't drive with care, there is that possibility. I greatly enjoy watching you drive those car, minivans, micro-cars that bearly have a max speed of a hundred miles per hour. I remember that car you drove that bearly past the 100 mph mark at the bridge. That car was so small and the engine didn't have much power or torque to bring it past the mandatory hundred miles per hour at that bridge. My favorite car that you drove on the nordschleife was the Shelby GT500. Wow, what a monster of a car. Misha, I wish a person who has a V8 Aerial Atom would contact you so that you could drive it on that track. It possibly my absolute favorite car on the north loop or nordschleife. That would be absolutely incredible.

[@thomasheuer1916]

This chanel rocks Misha. I love the fun.

[@Rentta]

This was so much fun to watch 😀 I wish someone would come with properly build T5 or T6 for funsies.

[@user-hn1vf9sm4q]

[@AndrewTSq]

It would be so fun if it gets the complete track conversion. Just remember Renaults old family wagon, that had a drivetrain and chassie from their renault / williams F1 car :) (Renault Espace F1..there is videos of it on the YT, looks like someone is fast forwarding the video :)

[@hillman175]

one of the best videos, its just so funny as you overtake porsche etc 😂

[@kennymcallister2523]

Loved it one of your best videos yet made me smile 😂 😝👍👍

[@aleksandrnestrato]

Ha-ha, that is where the enthusiastic part of that MQB platform begins: You can SWAP!😄 You know, tho independent suspension is better, I think it’s not about the ‘dependence’ of the rear end, I think it’s about the aft leaf springs. If that dead axle was supported by levers and had coil springs, it would’ve been way more precise in corners. Also was thinking about all wheel drive Caddies- they have live axle back there! Can you imagine *that* careering through the track?

[@davidmoynahan9585]

I'm sue Sabine Schmitz would approve and would have enjoyed a drive too. What a brilliant conversion, huge smile factor. Well done guys.

[@TheVerendus]

I don't think ive ever seen such a big smile on Misha's face, for that entire lap!
