Volkswagen MK1 Jetta Coupe - One of the best in the world! - Revival Motoring Vlogs!

This week we hang out with Tobias Aldrich @tobitightpants to discuss his INCREDIBLE MK1 Jetta Coupe. Watch the video and see for yourself! We get a walk-thru of the car and all of the work that has gone into it over 21 years of ownership. In my opinion, this is one of the BEST MK1s in the world.
We also see another great car in his MK2 GTI 2.0L 16V!

You heard it here first folks, Tobi has shaved over 100 holes

[@paulmcgrath6350]

Never in any doubt.

[@paulmcgrath6350]

You said it Josh. Tobi’s “way” of approaching a car is second none ❤️

[@mcfly6667]

Just terrific !

[@andrewblackmon7325]

I've always loved the jetta coupes

[@lowdl]

Really enjoyed this. The Jetta is tastefully modified and the Mk2 is a thing of beauty.

[@shawnoen1029]

Wow, I remember that red Mk2 well from BITD. He used to have Rallye lights on it. Awesome it's still around and being taken care of!

[@Milesformemories]

Amazing story and car omg I seeing before in shows but it’s cool to know the full story behind the car ! Dope guys

[@benrussell314]

Toby tight shorts! Great video, great cars, great guy, great tash!

I remember this car from OG vortex days when he first did the blacked out ABA. I had an ABA mk2 jetta at the time, and eventually got a eurospec mk1 jetta I still have. Love to see the refinement over the years and love the pristine example of a MK2 GTI 16V. Much harder to find these days.

[@tanya2012]

We love Tobi!

[@boostaddict_]

Wait, I need to know how the hood release shave works lol. That looks incredible. This is definitely an inspiration for my MK3 (and hopefully not the mk1 I'm buying as a daily lol)

[@fullmetalneck]

Such a great color for the Jetta, amazingly done car. Love the GTI 16v, probably because I have one, but mine is not like this... great to see it so well preserved.

[@SmokedRubber]

Love this car. Happy to see he still has it. Met him years ago and excited to hopefully see this thing again in the future 😃

[@TDSxISCxCERTIFIED]

I need to meet Tobias right pants ugh

[@matthews7144]

Love the Jetta. Can I ask where the reproduction stickers were made and bought?

[@UngluckInc]

Hands down my fav Jetta and top 3 fav mk1. Huge influence and love. One day my track rat GLi will sit next to Tobi's pristine specimen. Such an incredible car and man. #vwfiends #gengstout

I had a 1984 silver gli jetta fastest car I ever had 220 k 1800 cc 5 speed hot plugs , air input and big exhaust 14 inch honey combe wheels you could just drive the shit out of it and it never failed took out all comers and was a total sleeper wish I still had faster than my mk2 Supra with mods .

[@alistairparker6650]

Tobias sold out the day he bought a MK4 ;D

[@boostaddict_]

This started out as a winter car? Oh no. I'm currently in the process of buying a MK1 Jetta as a winter car.

[@ericcurlett811]

My mom had a red mk2 gti 16v brand new wish I knew if it was still around.

[@easye47]

He should try Hondas. They’re Japanese Volkswagens.

[@shawnoen1029]

Everbrite on raw cast aluminum? Does that work?

[@samuelsteen3343]

Did Tobias deactivate his insta account? Would love to contact him... I own a MK1 jetta with a transplanted 2.0 16V. Motronics CIS for fueling. Think she's running a bit rich, and I'm struggling to find experts on this system. :(

[@RevivalMotoring]

He just changed his IG handle. He should be tagged in some posts on our IG.

[@samuelsteen3343]

@@RevivalMotoring Thanks. I scoped around and all tags are still @tobitightpants which doesn't lead to an actual account hah
