bought a rover 75 diesel tourer my 4th one and paid £1000 for it. did 35000 miles in 2 years and regularly got 55 plus mpg. Just sold it for 650 and have acquired another 75 diesel tourer for 930. great and comfortable motoring. I only buy the diesel versions and they have all served me well.

Buy a Cayman. I've become a Porsche guy haven't I...well this is embarrassing. It's true though, just buy a base 987.2 (2009 or later) manual at that price. If repair bills are an issue...well then you wouldn't want a performance car around £15-20k, you'd want a reliable performance car for £25 instead.

@@zaink7037 As a 981S driver I can only say this: the 981S is, in my opinion, the best sports car that has ever been built, works best with PDK and needs good colours (white with black wheels/mirrors here). Standard exhaust and suspension are way better than sports exhaust and PASM. A base 981 with a manual isn't far off, long gearing is the only issue. 987 steering is better but 981 beats it in every other way- especially image, you get so many thumbs up and "nice car" shouts. Nobody has given me the finger in 15 months either! A guy in a Yaris did on my last drive in my Lexus (he thought a Yaris could race a GS450h...which beats the 981S, he was silly...). I was expecting that in the porker but not once. Only downsides are tyre noise and every single Fiesta on the road will race you. They'll think they won because you were making noise too, except you were 5k RPM short of the redline singing along to Bonnie Tyler, but they thought you were racing. Not that I've done that😆 They are £35k though...but don't depreciate.

A few little issues (sat nav doesn't work, googlemaps is fine, and 1 door locking mechanism sticks) and there is no Bluetooth streaming but I've only had to buy (a lot of) tyres, new rear springs and a fuel injector in 9 years. Seems to be a really solid car. Even servicing only required every 2 years or 25k. Can't bring myself to tempt fate and get a new one when it runs so well. Cost me 8.5k.

Great list! If I had to pick, I'd go for the Audi. I much prefer the older cars from then than what you see now. The poor Rover 75 was much maligned back in the day, but was actually a very good motorway cruiser. Had one as courtesy car in early 2005 and it was comfortable on long journeys with a decent level of kit (at the time). As you say, watch the 1.8 petrol - Head Gasket issues and it was also underpowered

The cheapest thing that's actually decent. Not so cheap that you'd spend more repairing it than driving it (i.e. anything in this video) but cheaper = more fun. £2-3k these days seems a good amount, then as JB said it's insurance. For 1st cars don't think "what will impress my mates" - just think "what can I absolutely rag the balls off and not care about" since you will be far happier. I drive a Porsche (excuse the non-flex, it's relevant!) and honestly I have never been happier than when I had a crash damaged (by me) Peugeot 306 LX. I'd have that car back without hesitation if it still existed, I've driven a lot of serious cars and the Pug was the most fun of the lot, no question. The porker just sounds nicer and I'm an attention whore...

I miss my w210 Kompressor. I ran it in the middle east but yes they rust especially at the bottom of the rear window and the boot and door edges. However it was bloody reliable and only cost be 800 quid in parts including fitting over 7 years. They are a wallowy beast but very comfortable to drive and the Kompressor was decently quick for its time. If you buy check for rust and fix and weatherproof with wax oil. They are the weapon of choice all over the middle east and rack up high miles if looked after with little maintenance. The brakes show abs warning lights now and again which is usually down to dirt so they just need a quick hose and off you go. Much better looking than a beemer or a vw audi in my view and definitely more stately. My mates named her the bismark

Also I wasn't far from the beach where the water is very salty so will be carried in the air. The lacquer peeled eventually due to the incessant heat as well. Shame really. But considering the weather the car was really reliable. Interestingly the performance shot up when it was hot. We clocked a 0 to 100kmh in just over 7 seconds compared to its winter time run of just under 10. Caught me by surprise on the motorway once as I floored it to overtake and nearly hit the rear end of a truck as I hadn't anticipated the faster pickup which led me to do the acceleration test

Should have got the 1.8T engine. The 1.8 NA is just too underpowered for the weight of the car. The 1.8T can be remapped by K-Maps to ~200bhp. I think they can remap the NA engine to around 135bhp which is a good improvement over the original. The 1.8T however is much much better. HGF not really an issue these days given the options available for replacements and the TCi-Tech development. Of course in a 75, the two engines to get are either the 4.9L V8 (Mustang engine) or more practical for most, the 2.0CDTi. the CDTi can be remapped to 165bph+ quite cheaply and is smooth, refined, and very economical. It is the BMW M47R engine, the Roverised variant of the M47 engine, but the beauty of it is it does not suffer the swirl flap or VNT turbo issues of the BMW engine. For something a bit more modern in terms of design, the MG ZT is the one to go for, if you want the platform given its handling credentials, the MG6 Turbo is awesome!

Luxury cars that look expensive- because they are...to fix...constantly 😆 Part of me wants to not like this video because even for KZbin, buying one of these at under £1k is a terrible idea. Buying any car under £1k is a terrible idea unless you're a mechanic. My first car was £1500 in 2006 and that was a pile of crap (Punto S60), followed by a Pug 306 in 2008 for £1700 which I would buy again right now...but under £1k? Nothing good can come of this... £2k is perhaps reasonable for a project car though. The E90 interior actually has aged well. It's weird, I looked at one when they were current and I genuinely didn't even bother test driving the 1st one since the interior was so bad, but it doesn't look any worse now. E Class looks nicer even though it's older though. Still, I'm checking my balance right now in case just looking at this video cost me £5k somehow, these things are terrifying!

Haha my £400 Skoda, £400 polo, and £1,000 MX-5 disagree! I think I got lucky with all three though, plus having the mechanic dad… I really want either this or the £2k video to hit the 15k likes mark because then I’m all in on an absolutely dead old luxury car to see what living with it is like 👀

@@CarsWithJB With a luxury car £2k might be enough that it makes it to the garage to be fixed again 😁 £1k is...well if the tyres are worth more than the car that's probably not a great plan.

The one stalk on a Merc goes way back further than the w211. The w124 and w201 190 have them but they go back further than that i think. Its an aweful car. But yiu wont get a w124 or w123 for under a grand these days

You can buy the same used model of car much cheaper in Britain than in Germany. Having lived in both countries, the Germans ask way too much for stuff generally. They don't go in for 'bargains' either. They don't know what they are. They're a bit grasping in my opinion.
