This Guy Has 17 Unique Volkswagens! | Owner Spotlight

[@Janet_Airlines802]

Not many people who own this many old VW's actually have them all running. Very cool

[@noelmedina6925]

Old VWs are pretty cheep to maintain, parts aren't expensive and maintenance is easy

[@nicostenfors5690]

I own 3 and only 1 runs lol. One is torn down MK2 GT, second one is a 1300 Beetle and the only runner is a MK2 Golf 1.6 CL.

[@E46325mod]

@@noelmedina6925 what r you smoking ? a transmission goes out, your in trouble, itll run you easily $3,000 USD not sure what that coverts to in pounds or euros but its a lot, and many vw's if not all, use a timing chain and if that goes out OMG, it can be very very expensive if both went out suddenly. im not bashing the car by any means i own a mk5 jetta 2.5 with 173k on it and she runs like a beast but only god knows how long that will be, but im ready to fix it if need be

[@GloomyTX]

even early 2000 models at that. I know because I know a good amount of people who own mk4s (as do I) that just sit in their driveways. I’m guilty as I blew my motor and have been slacking on saving for a new motor.

I should show this to my wife... having 4 at home now doesn't seem excessive at all.

That's why you cant find parts for mk2.everyone who likes them has 20 of them.lol

Got love the hard core old school VW enthusiast that help keep these vehicles on the street. Thanks for sharing Steve 👍

This guy has the most unique accent I’ve ever heard. Wild

[@DirtyHerrie.official]

Seriously that track car hasn't been used in a decade😂

[@JuicyJ_FPV]

Love to see that the Mk2 is still alive in the hearts of some of us. I have a B6 Passat at the moment but plat on finding another MK2 or a Rally Golf witch is my dream car for as long as I can remember. I had a 16v GTI when I was 16 and I have been hooked ever since. Keep up the great work.

[@TheMapleDaily]

I thought this was my girlfriends dad.. He has owned 17 VDubs mostly corrados sciroccos and mk GTI (I own my own mk3.5 Cabrio)

[@mk5damian]

I have a MK1 GTI Convertible

[@vwstormchaser7985]

Steve, I know where you’re coming from, I have 13 Veedubs. It gets addictive. I have a Mk1 golf GTI, a Mk2 GTI 16v big bumper, 2 Mk1 Sciroccos including a Storm, a RallyeGolf in Tornado Red, 5 Scirocco Mk2s including 2 Storms, a wide body Rieger and Hornstein Cabrio, a Corrado VR6 Storm, 2 Mk1 Golf Cabrios - a GLi and Classicline and last but definitely not least a Mk4 R32. I also have the inevitable lock up full of spare parts as well.

[@dylanpenny7903]

You are honestly living my dream 💯

[@TheExoticmoments]

What? No Scirocco's?

[@nadiasmith3262]

Always liked and still prefer the MK3 look. Ageless. The MK2 GTI however is VW Golf at its finest and most handsome.

[@robertpineda577]

The mk3 body is super timeless/ageless. I got 98 Jetta and everyday I fall in love with it

[@doddsalfa]

Finally someone in the states that takes your attention and says something meaningful:)

Love the VR6 shirt! Check out the 'Malaka Motorsports' channel here on KZbin. These crazy Greek guys in California modify VW's and Audi's, and get over 1,000 HP out of VR6's!

[@nenadvucicevic2026]

Please do not convert Rallye into the Limited model. This engine is unique to Rallye model only and has 1763 ccm instead of a "standard" 1781 ccm in Limited model. Make it OEM and beautiful again. Cheers!:)

His VWs are not old. My 9 are old, 1953 to1965.

Couldnt help but notice there were no mk4's in this video lol

[@tiko4621]

He’s old school man. You’ll see mk4-5s being looked back at fondly in another 10-20 years when all the guys who owned them are older. Hell mk4s are pretty well liked in the states already.

2:38 boxy flares... and relates it to the older BMW. I personally feel it's more relatable to the Audi Quattro Sport of that era.

[@7spower998]

Steve, where did you get that VR6 T-Shirt?

[@Andrew4181975]

That Rallye Golf deserves to be kept in a garage. My Mk2 Jetta GLI 16V is never going anywhere. I luv that car, it's awesome, and I have yet to find a car that is more fun to drive even though I have driven and own much faster cars. There is something special about the feel of a MK2.

[@rigozuniga8096]

I’ve known about the golf limited over a decade, first time I heard someone mention it without me explaining what it is!

Whichever Golf she likes, assuming he's actually married!

[@VAGbuilders_Tuning]

Awesome collection, and a knowledgeable owner. Also nice to hear that he has plans for every car he had around. When you have enough space around your own home so you can store all those cars then you are a lucky guy 😅. Here in the Netherlands i also have a lot of vw's but have to pay also lots of money for storage 🤪

[@neildantino4709]

Love everything you’ve got there, love the Schrick intake manifold (I just put a set of Schrick cams in my 1.8 stroker build). Currently have 3 Mk4 Golfs but I am looking to add a Mk2 or3 to the collection.

It’s usually the first or second week in April. It’s an amazing get together with some very cool cars and especially the driving is phenomenal.

[@florianj6490]

It's a shame the Rallye Golf is such dirty. This car is at least 60,000€ ~71,000$ worth in Germany. It's an absolute unicorn here in Germany. It's a homology car for the FIA World Rallye Championship with power up to 204 HP. Such a great car. But it's slow in today's standard

[@I53-624]

Love the collection sad to see no mk4s though!

This guy is fantastic! Jees, he must be loaded! (Rich). I love the "check there's no snakes in there" line!! The only thing I didn't like was his accent, is that a mixed English/Maine accent?
