[@zairemccarthy8591]

Suprisingly?

[@shadowsyndicate4858]

My dad has had an S80 since 2011 (only covered about 38,000 miles due to him being offshore). Bought it brand new with D5 engine, and in my opinion a brilliant car that’s incredibly comfortable and, although we sadly don’t have the V8, still fairly nippy in terms of performance. Definitely a very underrated car.

[@CarsWithJB]

Very cool - even without the V8 it looks like a super comfy wafter!

[@TekkenBones]

The 3.0-litre T6 is also worth investigating...practically the same performance stock for stock, and obviously much better performance when tuned.

[@SunnyD1865]

Sleeper wise, my favourite has got to be any R Volvo, it’s hard to not like them.. though for 3 grand either one of the higher performance 2.0 saab 93s or 2.3 saab 95s, or an 850 T5. I absolutely love our T5, it’s brilliant. Nothing like having an S audi or a VXR up your backside and then leaving them for dust in a 26 year old brick and it sounds ace. It was a bargain too, sub 1k a couple of years ago and now are edging closer to 3k - when you can find one.

[@mikeyj2025]

Great video. Best sleeper I had was a rover 620ti which was too powerful for the 90s fwd grip and was fond of going diagonally under heavy acceleration. Good fun though

[@CarsWithJB]

Haha I can imagine it was a lot of fun! Sketchy cars always are

[@fullearth]

Immediately thinking S-Type with this category, great to see it's there. Best bit about it is the CATS suspension system; I've rinsed a fair few beemers and mercs down the rough lanes and old A roads with mine. My dad used to have a first gen CLK that he bought in 2009 for absolute peanuts, set his personal speed record in that rocket.

nice video, as always. I'd say my current car is a pretty sweet sleeper. A 65 plate skoda superb estate with the 2.0l TSi 280bhp. Its huge, great for the kids and when it needs to be, rapid. Does what it needs to do as a family wagon but has more than enough poke.

[@thebear11]

Bought a 2001 lexus ls430 18 months ago and just sold it (for £400 more than i paid for it) as I needed an estate. An absolutely wonderful machine, creamy smooth, powerful and reliable. Cheap to service but as expected economy isn't the best 20-25 running about, more on a run. In my opinion, the most complete car for beer money.

[@stevenperry9762]

The CLK is the pick, got the same engine in my '97 E420 Sport. Goes real nice. Thanks, J.B., more Aces for good prices.

Volvos are definitely sleeper cars no doubts about it. The older S40/S60/S80 models all sell for quite cheap, they are really reliable and still give you that executive feel to it. My dad has a friend that owned pretty old S80, with over 300K KM on it...The fact that Yamaha helped designing the engine really helped with the overall reliability of the company. Also, lets not forget that the higest mileage car on the planet currently still driving with its original motor is a Volvo P1800 and it seems like Volvo still has that reliable feel to it.

[@CarsWithJB]

They really define the sleeper car class!

[@callumpalmer3258]

Even newer Volvos are faster than people think. I went to buy a 3 Series not long ago but instead came home in a V60 because although it had the same size engine it was not only more practical but faster and more BHP than the BMW. Certainly don't regret it when I pull away from Audis/BMW and watch the drivers face confused 🤣

I worked for Toyota at Barlaston, the quality control is very very strict, the ls400 and 430 engines are known to be bullit proof, 500k cars are well known, of course maintenance is key. Also mentioned about volvos b4, but over 1 million mile volvos are known and 1 has done over 3.2 million miles, which is certified.

[@BaddaBigBoom]

What is my favourite sleeper? The one I have parked outside :-) A 2006 "facelift" Subaru Forester XT. *edit* (because I hadn't watched far enough to see that you'd featured the Forester!) Luckily, my one has the EJ255 engine that rarely has head gasket issues. Thumbs up.

[@dylanhinton5527]

Something else to consider would be the 2.5t mk4 mondeo. Relatively plain exterior but a 2.5 volvo i5 powering it. I sware by mine. Easy to overlook

I own my favourite sleeper, 2006 V70R. Some V8s just can't keep up. Not far behind is my 2011 AWD V70 D5, surprisingly rapid, especially in sport mode. Only around 30 sold in the UK 🙂

[@CarsWithJB]

Stunning - that’s huge Volvo love!

[@autobahnproven]

@@CarsWithJB No more Volvo love from me. Volvo was nice enough to replace my driver airbag so it would not kill me. Unfortunately, the stitched leather steering wheel centre is also a part of the airbag module. They replaced it with a CHEAP PLASTIC cover. Being behind the wheel of my V70R used to feel special. No longer. I'll give Volvo the time to make good. Until then, am looking at other cars to replace it. No more Volvos for me. I wonder if Ford would have been as crass as the current Chinese owners.

I agree with you : i bought my dream sleeper last summer, it is a 2015 Skoda Octavia VRS TSI Estate, with the genuinely bonkers Golf GTI 220PS engine, with manual transmission !! Believe me, it is a totally schizophrenic engine; you can drive it gently and it will waft you up the road with ease, OR floor it and it becomes mental quick and would love to kill you quick too ! Very tuneable to even more mad power for a front wheel drive, so my own dream sleeper is NOT a let down at all; almost perfect and almost too fast : They are meant to be limited to 150MPH, but i suspect that would be all too easy ! Runway needed !! Thanks for the great content ! J

I would add another car, the audi a4/a5 B8 platform with the 3.0tdi. the "diesel gtr" how its called in my country. Thing is pretty strong out of the box with 240hp and 500nm but with just software alone 300hp and 600+nm is guaranteed. My friend had an A5 with this engine and with a map it felt faster and stronger than an RS3 which we sat in shortly after for a testdrive. They are just a breath over 3k at least they were not long ago when i checked. The b6/b7 with the same engine, altough a bit weaker, is under 3k so you can compromise, the older versions do need a bit more thinkering tough to achieve 300hp. Lot of bang for the buck tough. People like to steer clear of them because of the quad-timing chain setup but the truth is, if you dont change your oil in 14k intervals and use mobil or castrol or some other high quality oil, it can easily reach 300k+ miles before you have to service tensioners, at least from what Ive seen in my country. In the UK people tend to care less about looking after their cars so idk how hard it is to find one thats in one piece and wont bomb the tensioners here, but im sure its not impossible. My friend's was great, apart from the bad fuel economy and expensive tyres... Its hard to get good mpg when the thing sounds like a gtr and has about the same torque as the gtr lol

Yet another one that seems to forget a cheap, reliable street sleeper. The Volvo v70 T5, 250 bhp 155 top speed and avaliable for under £1000. Scares the crap out of knobs with BMW's

Another addition could be the Ford Mondeo ST220.

[@CarsWithJB]

I actually very nearly included it but as it was in last week’s video I sacked it off!

[@qasimmir7117]

[@sammarley347]

The Juke R is the best sleeper ever
