Appreciate your videos and the knowledge you share - that said I'm looking to buy a used car around the £30k mark and find that nearly every vehicle I consider, you've highlighted reasons for me to avoid. And I thank you because I could have ended up with a lemon - but now my head is spinning because I don't know what to buy?! Coming from a Skoda Octavia VRS245 MK3, previous was the VRS MK2, so still want power, but I'm tired of stiff suspension and thin tyres. Also while the interior looks nice and solid, it's already started to get buzzes and rattles all over the place which is driving me insane! 🤬 Wanted to go up the badge food chain and was considering Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Range Rover but I'm turned off. An SUV would be great for comfort and pothole soaking suspension + wheels (UK roads are a mess), but these get very pricey when you also want them loaded with tech. Ideally I need 200ps minimum and a 2019+ vehicle as I want some warranty, electric heated seats, digital dials would be nice. I really appreciate the looks of a vehicle (edges and masculine modern styling) and nice wheels, but they need to have some tyres with side walls. Reliability is going to be import as this will likely be my last petrol car that I will hold onto for 4-5years before considering electric. I'm a manual driver now but think I'm ready for auto - can go either way. Any pointers please? 🙏 Even just a clue where to start in the UK market (and not Ford). Volvo?

What a rambling, needy post. Go research yourself. You won't get an answer here.

[@trevorsutherland5263]

Mostly agree with your points. However the Caddy Escalade is a luxury Chevy Tahoe and that is both good and bad. On the good side that means it is a bulletproof drivetrain that will be running 15 years from now; here in Texas you see any number of early 2000s Tahoes, Suburbans, and Yukons running around like its nothing. Tesla quality is offensive to my eyes; I wouldn't drive one if you gave it to me. For the Italians I'd say they will never be Lexus level problem free, but in my experience their high maintenance requirements are manageable (if you have the money to do it and do it right). My neighbor has a 2009 Maserati Gran Turismo that is utterly magnificent even at 12 years old and the sound will make you weep with envy.

[@clu4u]

Your comments regarding Tesla are stupid af, just sayin’. My 2016 Model S has only $500 in repairs, just sayin’.

Agree about the Escalade - I’m also in TX lol. But I think after about 2006 the Chevy/GMC quality started going downhill over the next 10yrs. Had a friend who bought a brand new Escalade in 2017 and traded it back in 5 months later - engine issues and tons of weird electrical problems. Another friend currently drives a 2021 GMC Yukon Denali - it’s already had to have a transmission. But you can’t beat an early 2000’s GM with that 5.3L V8 - most bulletproof rigs out there

1. BMW 750 - Engine problems and accelerated battery wear 2. Cadillac Escalade - Great car if it were half the price 3. Mercedes GT 250 - Not getting Mercedes quality 4. Tesla Model X - Nothing but problems 5. Maserati SQ4

[@anothersmite3956]

thinking about getting the new A class is it worth in terms of long condition ?

[@drunvert]

No. Junk

[@mlai2546]

In Canada, typically people keep their vehicles for 7 years before trading them in for a new car. I am not surprised if vehicles are now designed to last just 10 years. This is no different than a smartphone. Knowing that people trade in for a new phone every 3-4 years, why would you design a phone that last for 10 years. You will just cannibalize sales of your new phones.

I must have the 7 series. I'll Settle for a 201 740i. What do you think?

[@unkletwann6797]

The one point ppl never talk about when thinking about owning tesla is insurance. I know 4 ppl that own one and when they told me how much they paid for insurance I was stunned. Even though you don't pay for fuel in the typical since. It's doesn't compensate for the astronomical cost for insurance 😮

The Tesla computers do get better over time. When I first got my M3 four years back. I was rebooting once a week. Now, maybe once every four months. Also, to be clear, when you reboot, you can still dive. The reboot is for electronics and whatnot.

[@V876able]

You include the Cadillac Escalade in your video stating the engine lasts forever. So is it reliable or not?

[@seantire]

Is a 740li good?

[@ECPP]

The B58 turbo 6 in those cars are currently one of their most reliable and solid power too

[@ChrisB-mn1yl]

What do you think about the BMW 8 Series?

[@zsb707]

Amazing car! 👍

Having watched dozens of YT “good/bad” car videos, it seems most comments are coming from the US and not Europe or Asia so I’d love to know why all of these brands are so bad in one region of the world. Is it lack of competent dealers unable to properly maintain/service these vehicles, owners doing the maintenance themselves (missing service dates/incorrectly servicing the car) or is it more fundamental that entire cars/components are manufactured in different places to European cars? Also I think people need to define the word “reliable”. My take is a car is unreliable if it breaks down and needs recovery, not if the Infotainment system locks up and needs resetting. I’ve owned several used BMW’s, an Audi a couple of Mercedes Benz and Alfa Romeos (latest being a Stelvio and a Giulia Quadrifoglio) and have never had any issue with any of these cars that has resulted in a breakdown. What they all have in common is they had full dealer service histories with invoices. People may say I’ve been repeatedly lucky but in my experience, if a car is properly maintained from new and regularly driven it shouldn’t be unreliable. And for all the Toyota fans out there, the most unreliable car I’ve ever owned is my 1995 MR2 Mk2 that I still have (had several issues with it) but guess what, I bought it with a partial service history and I’m paying for the negligence of one or more of it’s previous owners. Why do I keep it as my daily driver then? Simple, it’s super fun to drive, cheap to run and isn’t depreciating in value - ie: life’s too short to drive the same boring car for 200,000 miles (which maybe is why people keep buying these premium brands?)

What's your beef with Ontario cars? I lived in Alberta for several years and saw many rust buckets there too.

[@ECPP]

The salt used down East is simply a rot fiesta

[@modernconflict9888]

wow suprised to cla/gla on this list , my wife wants a mercedes, Im a BMW guy, would you suggest I get her an A class over the cla ?

[@duncanjacobs402]

Definitely. Have had both CLA and A class and can say that build quality of the CLA is exceptionally poor..

[@MugatuJag]

The CLA and the GLA are known to be extremely cheap and the transmissions are known to have issues, if you get an a class or a CLA just make sure you get a warranty.

[@betweenyouandme]

in the other video entitled cars that will last forever, you mentioned that escalade is a good SUV, how come in this video escalade is part of the worst luxury cars..

[@OVERDOSE7002]

Those 3 vents on the Ghibli are one of the ugliest things I’ve ever seen on a car. Like someone knew they were getting fired, and threw it in the final design as a middle finger otw out the door.

[@ECPP]

I totally agree. Looks cheap

[@kovalm3]

I would take guilia with all it's flaws if it had a manual.

[@ECPP]

That could make it a real winner especially the quad

[@nicofpv1845]

Can you make a video about used Jaguar f type convertibles vs used Maserati gt convertible please

[@losdesmayosdeNestor]

The Audi A6 has been doing well on consumer reports...🤔 Maybe the previous generation 4cyl....

[@donaldoehl7690]

Let's be honest; the real reason most people choose to drive BMW automobiles is status and prestige. Prove me wrong.

[@zsb707]

You're wrong. I bought a 6 Series coupe (E63, LCI) back in 2010 because I was fascinated with the design and the way it handles. Nowadays a BMW gives you no prestige/status, but hate from others.

[@evannagle3706]

My mom had a 2010 hybrid Escalade and to this day they couldn’t fix it it would turn off when stopped at a light and wouldn’t turn back on trash cars for sure!!!
