What Happened To Affordable Hot Hatches?
If you know anything about me, the main thing is that I adore front wheel drive hot hatches. They strike the perfect mix of afforability, performance and practicality. So, where have they all gone? Why is every "hot hatch" now a £50,000 rocket with the performance to rival supercars? Why is no one making low horsepower front wheel drive hot hatches?
Let's talk about that!

Why Is Driving No Longer Fun?
มุมมอง 36914 วันที่ผ่านมา
Driving used to be something people got ready for. We would put on our driving gloves and driving shoes, plan our route ahead of time and listen to the radio. These days however, driving is seen as a chore. We no longer get ready for a drive, we no longer listen to the radio and worst of all we no longer enjoy the drive.

What On Earth Has Happened To Land Rover?

Land Rover, Range Rover if you will, used to be a brand for wealthy farmers to run about their land whilst looking good enough to be seen outside Harrods.

The New Renault 5 Electric Is More Important Than You Think
My old modded out MT clunker will always lose to a modern CVT fatty in a 100m drag race but she's so much more engaging to drive especially when she gets to stretch her legs on a mostly empty highway.
One that's bad with the facelift thing is the 2010-2012 mustang, was a new look compared to the previous 2005-2009, but then in 2013 it got another facelift that only lasted to 2014. Then it got a complete redesign in 2015.
I could argue with you all day. New cars are needlessly expensive and you pay for things that are almost completely useless. New cars are much more unreliable than old cars. New cars don't have the capability of old cars, even suvs like the subaru forester doesn't have a hitch and most cars are awd now instead of 4wd. There are no affordable new cars anymore, and the cheapest ones are almost useless. Every new car has an old alternative that is better in every way, yes, even safety and comfort.
If you buy a ferrari you have taste no matter if is a 30 years old or brand new.. ferrari al lambo are different that toyota you might know
What the heck is jumbled pot of opinions
The feckin hilux 50C in a middle Eastern desert? Its gonna work -50C is Siberia? Its gonna work Doing non stop work in Indonesia, panels being bashed by trees and rocks as it hauls many hundreds of kilos of...whatever they haul? Its gonna work Driven around a pot hole ridden road or offroad by a relentlessl irish blooded country boy? Its gonna work
Suzuki alto works rs turbo Honda N one RS Maybe daihatsu mill make a tocot avanzato TR XX
Also props to you. I also think the F430 is one of the most beautiful Ferraris ever.
Good points given period I agree 100%
I HATE how quickly facelifts are done. It should be 5 years minimum before a facelift. That way most responsible people will have at least been able to pay off their current vehicles and make a wiser choice in whether or not to "upgrade" or not.
The biggest issue is that new cars are gay and ev
My 2006 mustang isnt running great, but it is running! And its such a blast to experience. 0 screens, minimal dash, roof down
I'm surpirsed that you have only 451 subs... well 452 now ;)
Bunch of nonsense
Someome already said it but emissions. To be more exact: emissions are relatively looser for bigger cars compared to smaller cars. If we assume a starting value of emissions of 10 for any car produced, and a small car must meet emissions at 11, very difficult to do. If a twice the size must meet emissions at 15, it is relatively much easier to do. And you can charge relatively more for a bigger car compared to a smaller one, plus it is much more cost effective to hybridize a bigger, more expensive car than a small cheap car. That's why manufacturers are killing off their small models and replacing them with SUVs.
Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale Porsche 911 GT1
Fuck dial gear shift or push button gear shift in new cars examples like the new range rover, the new civic and new the Ford expedition like wtf, they are horrendous, Less practical, more prone to problems I don't even know why someone in the car company would think of implementing that bs,its crazy that we are thinking backwards.
curious what you think about the eqs
ik you mentioned the screens but the car as a whole
im also still waiting for every car to have curtain windows and other old luxury vehicles. some shit is just cool. in the future they will sell cheap ppl cheap screens
idk maybe the ferrari part just got me upset and now im talking nonsense, still mid video but excited to hear what you think of powertrains
im sorry but this video is verry upsetting. anything can be improved. ferrari makes the best cars they feasibly can and push them further for those who need it. they dont make half baked cars to sell you the rest later, that what modern manufacturers do. these limited edition versions are what they can do with less restraints like time money other numbers. then when drivers want some more they add what they can. you want a perfect car, get one of the big 5.
maybe porsche does most of their cars are almost identical and its easy for them to make 100 versions of one car but ferrari makes special editions for the few that need it
anyone who thinks anything negative about you getting a 430 is not someone who should concern you. Not because “wheres your ferrari”, but because it is a great car with a great history and theres a reason why Ferrari as a company has weird “pretentious” rules. its so that people that disrespect their heritage can have whatever opinions from the outside. tldr that car will have you creaming in the seats fuck the onlookers. great start to a collection, great daily, great track, great all around. ferrari badge is cool but thats a real car if there ever was one
considering the start of the video though, leave the 430 for someone else plz
I totally agree, Crossovers are a scam, I have seen many that have less space than regular Sedans/Hatchbacks I wouldn't buy a Crossover over a Sedan/Hatch. But even then Crossovers are not bad at all, I have driven many and they are mostly fine :) Also, I do believe SUVs have their place in the world, sure, I would prefer to have smaller and lighter cars that would pollute less, but SUVs are good enough and dynamic enough for our every day needs :) I, for one, would really like a Lamborghini Urus since I love Lambos and the Urus IS a Lambo daily driver. So yeah :)
That f430 spider you described is literally my dream Ferrari, spwnt hours driving one in that spec in the original test drive unlimited, on another note though you cant really blame manufacturers, its just the way society currently is due to capitalism and prioritizing profit margins for the stock market over the actual quality of their product. Like you alluded to, cars like mercedes used to be "luxury" because of their high build quality and durability, now they're luxury because of their tech features and statistics, its not really the manufacturers fault, thats just what sells, and at the end of the day, they are a business
Without capitalism a ferrari or mercedes wouldnt exist… just drive a red lada like every communist like
I only buy grey vehicles because I don’t want attention. I keep my miles low to keep resale value.
Toyota/Lexus updates do nearly nothing is the opposite end of the spectrum.
US and EU regulations have killed small cars and choked performance engines, since those are two of the biggest car markets on the planet nobody wants to even try anymore.
EXACTLY. Buying an item and not using it however you want because YOU want it, because YOU enjoy it in that way is so f*cked up. Listen, I don't like modded cars, but I'd rather someone get their car and mod the f*ck out of it if he so wishes because HE ENJOYS THE CAR than have him keep the car parked so the next guy can find it in a better condition. HOW LACKING OF JOY AND HAPPINESS IN YOUR LIFE MUST YOU BE TO CARE MORE ABOUT THE RESALE VALUE THAN ENJOYING WHAT YOU BOUGHT WITH YOUR HARD EARNED WORK?
The most batshit stupid vid ever. First of all, believe it or not, car manufactures want to make money and refreshing a model does exactly that. Secondly, not buying a beautiful car because people will say its old is the most npc thing ive heard today, you talk about the consoomer yet u buy something based on the opinions of others. You dont have to buy the Ferrari pista spaghetti edition just because it exists, buy what you can afford and what you are gonna get the most out off, do you really need that extra 20kmh max speed when u are mostly gonna be driving at max 120? Get real, stupid video
That's why nfs Porsche unleashed exists, so we can all dream together to have a Porsche, me included
Dreaming ain’t gonna get me or you a Porsche, gotta put in the effort to get one irl
@@HowToSpec true
Another thing that is worth mentioning is that the modern cars don't have a special place for storing the key, and also the start stop feature ( the engine turning off automatically if the car is stationary )
BLAND COLORS ARE THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE. You are right with all of them, but bland colors really is a hidden problem.
Absolutely, this modern era is ridiculous, I have gotten so tired of this that I am even turned off by cars now, I pretty much only like Toyotas, Hondas and Mazdas. (Of course each one of us has their special brand mine is Lamborghini) but yeah, I just prefer to not think about cars in general because they are so complex, so heavy and so disposable now, I wish we were back in simpler times.
Cars aren't that complex tho
Honestly if you got a 360 or a 430 nobody would call you cheap or judge you lol Same with an FF or California at the end of the day it's a Ferrari and most normal people would be impressed by the Ferrari badeg.
Bruh fr, imagine not buying a beautifully designed car just because a special edition with 5 more horsepower is gonna come out next year
If manufacturers made cars that lasts they would just have the same fate as mattress stores
I mean, Toyota is still around, so I don't know what you are talking about...
@@genlus_s Because toyota has enough money to innovate but their newer cars definitely declined in quality too, just not as much as cars from other brands. The new Corolla likes to spontaneously combust, the Yaris is more reliable than the previous generation but still not up to Toyota's standards and the GR Supra uses a BMW engine which is not that bad but the GR86 IS A FUCKING SUBARU, SAY BYE TO YOUR HEAD GASKETS! (all of these points are exaggerated, it's really not that bad)
you describe the 205/106 rallye ! thoses where cheap,light and also not that powerful but it worked ! You let those 3 cylinders you remove half the interior, (because let's be honnest someone who buy that kind of cars don't give a fuck about some plastic pieces missing, odds are its current car is missing half thoses pieces already xD ) and you have a modern peugeot rallye...
i20?
0:27 no i didn't wanted that stupid GT3 that is not claimed to be a stupid car like the 997 gen, it's brilliant and so does not require a lot of skill for the average person that opt with the PDK, okay only the touring manual, but i'll stick to a 997 at best.
Why ypu need a cheap low power fwd hot hatches when whe have cheap low power light weaght rwd miata?
Because fwd is superior for British roads
What? Why? We have lots of it. Like Polo GTI, fiat 500 abarth, Twingo GT... any carmaker have a "GT" version of his compact car.
Too much tech, too heavy. No car maker makes a sports car just for the pure enthusiast. You have to get a much older car for that, like pre 2000.
pure enthusiast is a laughable term
@@ogmechsftw not many in US, granted. Americans like bigger and heavier and no gadget is unnecessary or dumb. Why cars are bulky, heavy, and burdened with tech
Pure enthusiasts don't spend 500k on a car, people that have an extreme amount of money do
@@Jakoni7 that’s right they dont. That has nothing to do with my statement.
imo we may have gotten to the point where French cars are more reliable than the business standard... ;-;
They have been for quite a while then 💀
U cant fault them for making cars better then ferrari and lambo then realizing it. Everyone wants a turbo s , gt3, gt3rs .. its called supply a demand. U probably cant even name a single lambo or ferrari road car capable of beating a porsche gt3 or gt3rs around a track. Even the turbo s smokes lambos and ferraris in a straight line until recently when they all went hybrid. Now porsches new 992.2 will probably smoke them all again.
For this VW based POS with a Ford badge, that imbecile Jim Farley needs to be shown the door yesterday
not to mention the prices are horrendous on newer cars, 20,000+ on a toyota is mental awesome video btw
It's cuz of that tech they shoved in it all, they gotta reduce the tech to lower the price
@@IamcountachYTthe tech is a standard nowadays. Remember, they aren't trying to sell to people that drive for fun and want to modify their cars, they're selling to every day commuters
