    MCM does a Mk7 R

    Anyone into Mighty Car Mods will know that Moog has had a thing for Golfs for a little while now.

    It's not your traditional MCM build as they're getting a bit of help on this one. Spending the weekend at a well-known workshop in Sydney and throwing the Revo catalog at their Mk7 R....

      Yeah if you're going to toss away half the car may as well just buy a cheap one.

      Anyone see a set of black Pretoria's for sale up recently in Sydney???

            Just finished the second video, would love to know the total cost of all that work. I didn't realise how many products Revo actually supply!

                If you were to walk into the shop and get everything fitted that was done to this car you'd probably be looking at ~$20k in parts/labour.

                As mentioned in the video Revo sponsored this build and the workshop supplied the labour.

                I think the amount of publicity the video has got I think it's not a bad sponsorship. Plus these videos will be around for years to come.

                  No spoilers, but hog dang it!

                        I’ve never heard of these guys before but thoroughly enjoyed the vids. They have made me decide to build my dream mk6 R. Dunno when, but sometime in the not too distant future I want to find a decent United Grey mk6 R and overhaul it.

                        Their punch buggy mod vid from a year ago is great too!

                          Watch their budget street cred video where they take a mk 3 Golf and make it turn heads at a non-Euro car meet.

                          They’ve done a few interesting engine swap/ conversions over the years too.

                            Is that the one whether they sticker-bomb the front panel? I saw that ages ago and thought it was funny. They new vids have evolved a lot I reckon. Or maybe I just know the characters a little more now.

                              Yes that’s the one. Plus rusted the car with salt and beer.

                              The old stuff is good. The new stuff you can tell they’re working with a lot bigger budget.
