Welcome to Endfloat, where we're taking you on a real journey – the resurrection of a 2000 VW Golf Cabrio to make it roadworthy once again. In this video, I'll giving you an honest look at the process of bringing this modern classic car back to life.
What to expect in this video:
- I detail the removal and reinstallation of the passenger side front strut.
- I remove, repair and reinstall the front exhaust section, complete with catalytic converter, in order to put right some very poor past repairs.
- I clatter myself in the face!
This isn't just about repairs; it's about the nitty-gritty of restoring a classic car. We'll share the ups and downs, the surprises, and the satisfaction that comes with this kind of work.

I take you on a tour of part of Wicklow, where I grew up (or got bigger anyway!) while attending the Type 2 Ireland birthday meeting in January 2020 in the Golf. We stopped for lunch in the Chester Beatty Inn in Ashford, Co. Wicklow. Top notch food.
