Been binging Car Throttle the last couple weeks, got inspired and picked up a 2002 Saab convertible that was supposed to have a bad transmission for $200, so far it runs and drives great!
You're back! It's been like a month or so? Anyway, watching that bit with the Multipla made me think: How about a new challenge with 2 or 3 (depends if you could get Alex or someone else to join you) cheap cars and a series of challenges to find out who bought the best car? I'd say anything goes, buy a 40 year old shitbox that's been sitting in a shed for 10 years, buy a van.. All fine.
A nice subjective criterion like "it has to be interesting" then it's up to the boys to tell each other, themselves and us why it's interesting. Creates arguments and fun. And then it encourages a variety of cars because they all think something different is interesting.
My cousin had one of those, hideous car. Only good feature iirc was the back seats could swivel (just so you could turn away from onlookers getting sick)
@@geecars6263 can’t imagine how desperate you are for attention when you are picking on one grammatical mistake and missing out the whole point. It’s okay though i wish everything goes well for you. Hav a good day sir 😊
As a Qubo owner it really hurts, but I also understand. My one is as good looking as it can get (IMO) and even then there's no escaping the underbite bumper.
Jesus Christ, is there anyone in the world who hasn't heard about Raid Shadow Legends? If they spent some of their marketing budget on the game development, it might be worth playing.
i think we can all agree the RSi is the only tolerable version of this Beetle, maybe besides the 1.8T, if you're gutting it for the powerplant.. i mean uhh damn! this thing is gorgeous!! :,)
Yano it's harder than it looks this one. I jumped on Ebay right after because I actually don't think the Beetle is that bad, eyelids aside, and I didn't really find anything. There's plenty of cars which are boring and character-less, but objectively ugly is harder than you might imagine.
Hire a third host, each one of you buys a shitbox and you challenge each other with it. Even if it's just you two, buying two cars and giving each other crap for it WORKS! It's a proven recipe for success. Don't come at me saying it's not original. It's funny every time and you could have done this very video but with two cars.
A Beetle?? D: I mean I wouldn't call it pretty but it definitely isn't the ugliest And the dual tone colors actually make it a bit more interesting imo (if you get rid of the eye lids)
Ethan, you're so wrong for hating on the E36. So many cars that came after it attempted to copy from the design. I'm not at all biased... but I do own two (one of which looks like the silver one you showed)
It is sad to see is not the same without Alex because the all three made a good team, try to do a MPG hero again with a shitbox and see how many miles per gallon you can achieve
Jack is becoming a really good host for this show and Ethan taking more of a leading role is also good to see but lads please can we have a talk about Alex? Did youse split for any particular reason will we see any collabs in the future youse three worked well together maybe cheap car build challenges against each other would really like to know what happened why the reason for the sudden split well done lads loving the content 💪🏽💯
It's not a sudden split, as far as I'm aware. Alex and the Car Throttle crew are definitely all still friends (seen on Alex's social media from time to time), but Alex being busy with his own channel, and doing personal life stuff, he may just have decided that being freelance at CT wasn't working out, as personal channel takes priority.
you know Alex kinda made the channel but with Ethan's steady blooming and Jack stepping into the host shoes I'm still enjoying Car Throttle as much as I did before
@@WhuDhat I do still also enjoy Car Throttle but it does still feel like one of the 3 musketeers is missing! It’s like two of May, Hammond or Clarkson trying to make a new show it just wouldn’t feel right!
The worst part is that if you convert the 1200 pounds to dollars you get $1444 and that is a great price for a used car. Here in texas you can't get anything somewhat decent that doesn't need a lot of work for under $2000.
While Alex is a good host, I must admit that I prefer the Jack and Ethan combo host videos more. (Videos with the trio together are still the best, though!)
... Did he say the Suzuki Swift's "unreliable"? What is he running it with? Liquid poo?! Swift are extremely reliable and they're pretty fun thing to have, especially the Sport version. Yes it doesn't shout "Wee tons of POWER!!!!!!!!" but it's a small pocket rocket that takes tons of abuse on track and off-track while still livable daily. Mate has his running for 11 years and now has about 148,000km and it's still happily chugging along with at least 30 track days under its belt with zero major issue so idk what your cameraman's running his Swift with.
@@sushi777300 I think it got in to his head. He though that he should not share the profits with Car Throttle as he was carry the channel alone.

I am so glad you didn't pick the vauxhall agila. My partner bought one of these five years ago. It's a 1.2 version on a 53 plate, it had only done 18,000 miles, full dealer service history and condition was immaculate, all for £900. She is still driving it today and in those 5 years she's covered over 40,000 miles and only paid out for 4 tyres, yearly Mots and tax and home oil changes. Best value car ever 👍👍👍
As an original Beetle owner, I really dislike the “New Beetle”. However, I think you guys should save this one- modify it. Maybe a modern Golf GTI engine? New suspension? Make it a sleeper or track weapon.
I'm embarrassed, I used to have a 02 Beetle and really liked it But mine were all blue, no ponsy 2 tone or having eyelids on my car! In fact I'd like another newer herbie, I were lusting over her 14 plate beetle just yesterday!! I need help don't I.
Raid shadow legends? Dull “challenge”. Bit pointless. And a sponsor with nothing to do about the content who spams any channel they can find. Man car throttle has gone down hill

The Beetle really needs a lift kit, roof rack and a pair of nice lights.
and paint it pink
It's like watching Top Gear / Grand Tour, but only with Hammond and May.
This was recommended to me while listening to the song “Dupe- Gangsta “ 🥵
You guys have really got back in your stride, this vid was great. Definitely the funniest sponsor spots, and Jack and Ethan are really good presenters

"Maybe a ball sack" 🤣🤣🤣 I just spat juice everywhere 😭

First I think we need to discuss Ethan not liking the s15, because that was glossed right over.
The comment i was looking for🙏 i felt personally attacked bei Ethan🥲
It’s just jap crap

A Lada Riva has more character than this lol
Just to even out the comments, I don’t miss Alex. I like having two channels to watch
11:17 Was the serpentine drive belt mounted upside down? The belt's ribbing looked as if it was facing upwards on the alternator.
What happened to alex still being hired by car throttle separately?
Great to have another video. I was worried as it was a month since the last one. Jack did seem a slight bit buzzed in this video 😅
Bring back Alex. I know he says he has a watertight contract but money talks. You're supposed to be a trio.
Nooo, don't bring back the 40 year old who's only trick is making childish jokes.
The bit in the sponsor about the cat and passing an mot had me dying
Nissan S-Cargo is great looking! Its meant to be a van, not a car.
That beetle looks like Bigweld
That's quite pretty compared to a Ford Ka with faded black bumpers-
