Top 10 CHEAP & FAST Saloon Cars with INSANE PERFORMANCE! (Under £10,000)

[@eddyrocket8737]

Buddy you’re doing great with your videos. Love watching them. You’re also a down to earth guy who is looking at cars that match a realistic budget for most of your audience. You’re not trying to be some bullshit influencer in balenciagas who drives the most expensive car out there. Your narrative is detailed and clear to see you’ve done your homework. Keep up the good work.

[@CarsWithJB]

Cheers boss, really appreciate the kind words! Enjoy doing the research & making videos, so will keep pushing 🤙🏽

[@mennozeebregts9066]

To buy a bmw M5 E60 is not expensive. But the mainternance is a hell..

[@shad0w275]

Menno Zeebregts you hit the nail on the head. The reason why its cheap its cause of its maintenance...

[@CarsWithJB]

Yep - as we will see in this video haha, it's one of those cars owners have a love-hate relationship with!

The maintenance will cost more than the car

[@ryantaylor6530]

Yep as amazing a car as it is there is a laundry list of regular faults that can cost almost as much as the car does to fix.

[@tahmedurrahman666]

Great video! I absolutely love the M5. The new M5 F90 is absolutely mental!

[@CarsWithJB]

Same man, I'd love an E60, but I know how horrendous they are to look after

[@stevec6427]

The XFR is brilliant, it was my choice after test driving the the RS6, E63 and M5. Less irritating than the M5 when driving at normal speeds, more sporty than the E63 and more exciting than the RS6 due to being rwd. Buying one for £10,000 is a bad idea though, every one of them I looked at in the lower end of the market was neglected or abused or just didn't drive right. Cars worth buying start at £12k and that price hasn't really moved in a couple years, prices seem to have levelled out for now. The biggest, most common problem is the supercharger drive coupling which fails every 50k miles, there is a cheap fix with a rigid coupling but they cause damage to the supercharge because they take away the shock absorption that protects the supercharger. A proper repair costs around £800 from a specialist or £1200 from a Jag main dealer.

[@okeyezeilo6187]

I've owned an '06 E55k for just over a decade and the odometer's showing some 26,000 miles now. Expensive to run but the effortlessness with which it does everything and that deep exhaust rumble (positively Wagnerian once it warms up) make it worthwhile...

[@CarsWithJB]

That's amazing to have been running it for 10 years and only have 26k!

[@Benjamin_Boxall]

I don't like the look of most saloon cars, so I guess I prefer coupes. I feel like the 4-5 door configuration belongs to breaks and some hatchbacks.

[@CarsWithJB]

I prefer coupes too, much prefer the older M3s to the new ones for example!

[@Big-Man574]

Honestly I love 4 door saloons they looks so much smarter than 2 doors and I get Claustrophobic when I sit in the back of a 2 door

Whats the best fast car that does 0-60 under 5 seconds with low maintenance costs? Also whats the fastest low cost maintenance convertible 0-60 under 5s. Budget £10-15k? Thanks.

[@solomondiesel6817]

Can't believe the Audi S8 wasn't mentioned! For as little as 5k You can buy Audi's ultimate luxury saloon with the 5.2 Litre V10 LAMBORGHINI engine! That has some real modding potential however never seen it listed on any kind of list. Especially crazy considering the original sticker price of around £120,000 for a decently equip vehicle.

[@CarsWithJB]

Haha I've mentioned it in too many previous videos at this point, but I'm sure I'll find another excuse to use it!

[@kabuterrimondw5919]

Great vid, We need more of these cars that are mainly in the US despite being popular brands in the U.K. such as the Hyundai Genesis, that Lexis, even the Nissan Altima just to add variety, LHD isn’t as bad as people think.

Looking at getting a new car, I have 1 year no claims what would you recommend? Mainly going for a drivers car I got a quote on a mk6 gti and was only 2400!

[@CarsWithJB]

Hmm difficult - depends what you want from the car! Drivers car is a good start but then also how practical/fast/economical etc? I would recommend building a shortlist of things you want then tick off your options based on that!

[@ak1l207]

Prefer the styling of a coupe but the practicality of a saloon. I like coupes because I dont need the space :)

I'm with you on that one, big coupe fan!

Anything with a V10 wins at life. Loses at actually working in this case, so I wouldn't buy one but as long as someone else is paying to run it then I love it ☺

[@CarsWithJB]

V10s are my favourite through and through! Apologies, with the 10 car videos I end up with way too little time to hit the details

love the shape of coupes but the doors tend to be too big for normal parking. I have a VW EOS 2DTi and I love it apart from the occasional leak in winter and the problem with freezing frameless windows.

[@ENS_Cubes]

Love your channel but 60000 miles for oil change for the Jag, I'm thinking 6000 miles. Keep up the great content.

[@theeurodriver3378]

5 doors are pretty cool I can’t lie but it’s really what you want. Some massive fuck off landyacht that you can waft about and do the school run in or elegance. I personally like 5 doors, but I just seem to love massive unnecessary doors on coupes, especially the rolls wraith. Been in a matte black one once and I fell in love. also: on the lancer evo 6, my dad had one about 3 years ago and he couldn’t find one non modded, it was the only one (my dad doesn’t like mods). If you can find one non modded, snab it, it *will* go up in value being a non modded version.

[@CarsWithJB]

Yeah fair enough - I'm with you on the massive coupe doors! But yes agreed, if you can find an unmodified Evo you're laughing

Seems that Merc advertised the E55 at a lower figure to justify the £40k difference in price... [mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/194571-469-versus-493-horsepower.html]

Hello, I was watching your cheap insurance video and I followed all of your findings out and the cheapest without blackbox was still stupid.idk if it's because I never put my driving license number down as I don't actually have one I was just looking for when I do get one in less than a years time

[@CarsWithJB]

(apologies realise this is the third comment - just getting around to my replies) - Driving license number has helped me in the past but I never do it on any of my quotes for these videos - have you tried insuring cars you're looking at as if you park them on a road away from your house overnight? Sometimes this works as other roads have cheaper insurance/burglars are less likely to be able to break in and steal the keys!

@@CarsWithJB E46 M3's are great cars, but 5 seconds to 60 is very optimistic, they were more like 5.5-5.6 when new, and the cars for sale at £10k are all over 100,000 miles and will not be putting out the same power as new. Vanos seals need doing every 3 years or so, which is quite expensive if you have a garage do the work. Edit to add, I'm a BMW fan (no hater), owned 6 so far, and currently have an M140I.

Agree with you there - and yeah I have no idea how manufacturers quote their official 0-60 times! I'd have the Scooby every time though 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@ApothecaryTerry]

​@@CarsWithJB I asked Peugeot about my old 306- I think it was due to French regs but that was half a tank of fuel and 2 people in the car. Added about 3-4 secs to the time. The GS450h I'm pretty sure is petrol only, so it's the slowest time you could expect, if the battery isn't charged. The regularly quoted 292bhp matches that, since it's 345bhp really (although can't dyno it with a CVT and 292+200=345? Hmm...). On the other hand, they could all just be sandbagging- Lexus aren't usually the worst at that, Porsche are notorious for it. BMW to some extent too. Some have suggested they're trying to protect their halo models- if an M4 is 0.1s slower than an M8 nobody will by an M8, but if it's 0.5s slower...
