I Saved a Damaged 2024 VW GTI & Fully Restored the MK7!!

The final reveal is officially here! In today’s video, we are looking at two completed garage projects side-by-side: my fully restored white 2017 VW GTI Autobahn (Mk7) and our rebuilt 2024 GTI Autobahn (Mk8). The 2017 Mk7 was the car that started this channel, so bringing it back to 100% alongside this completed 2024 model is a massive milestone. The Mk8 came to us with severe undercarriage damage, a smashed front end, radiator issues, and body panel damage. Today, we do a full walkaround of both finished cars, talk about the last few cosmetic details remaining, and break down how they feel behind the wheel!
