This show is my favorite period I only watch youtube for this show, I'm also happy to say MO POWA BABEH I got my shirt on the way to the house. Thanks for super awesome energy and an infinite knowledge about ev every car.
My dad had a friend that had a Rolls Royce that he took to Brazil for a few years. Brazil has horrible roads that are not even paved in some places for even major city connecting routes. He broke something in his rear axle on a pothole. He called Rolls Royce but since they did not have a dealership in Brazil they flew two mechanics, tools and a complete axle assembly to him. They fixed it and went back to England. When my dads friend was done with his business 6 months later in Brazil he moved back to England. He called Rolls Royce and asked about his bill for the broken axle. They told him " Sir you must be mistaken. Rolls Royce cars are the ultimate in quality machine work. Our axles do not break. I have never heard of one breaking ever." Ok...they didn't bill him because they didn't want word getting out that an axle broke from a pothole. Even though that was probably a giant pothole after 14 months of Brazil roads. That was in 1981.
nowadays the streets and roads have not improved much (maybe here in São Paulo, but it is far from good), in addition there is some dirty scheme between the government and the car dealerships, that popular cars leave the factory almost in price of a house, besides having almost nothing besides 4 cylinders FWD, (and not the fun ones lol)
@@oliv3iraDan I watched a TH-cam video yesterday about why everything is so expensive there and they talked about five big reasons. 1. The roads and how hard it is to move products around 2. Import taxes on everything like all the little parts that make those cars. 3.Government corruption that has politicians and their friends taking all the government money that should be used to create paved roads, bus and train service and creating jobs. 4. Your president has not been able to create good working groups in the government that can agree on any plans, they get little done and just argue and fight a lot. That the people in your version of parliament are not coming up with any good plans and not working hard enough to help all the citizens. 5. High taxes on everything, especially busineses that are very complicated to understand and pay. The tax complication and how high they are also discourages people from opening new businesses that could create more jobs and make things cheaper through competition. That it is all really hurting the everyday people by not having enough jobs, making products very expensive, and devaluing the currency. It all sounds like a very complicated mess that will be hard to fix. Does all that sound about right? Was the show correct? Here in the US unfortunately we currently have a president that is crazy, selfish, racist, that tells lies that he believes in that is starting to create many of the same issues your country has. I certainly hope Joe Biden wins our election this year so President Trump does not get four more years to ruin everything here.
@@joeottsoulbikes415 yes, these are basically the problems, but specifically in the automotive part I strongly believe that there is collusion between the automakers and the government, for example, taxi drivers here in Brazil are obliged to change cars every 5 years, something like that, regardless of be in good condition or not, the brands knowing their need to buy a new car that is economical and durable, put the price high, know that they will never have a big boycott, so they push the prices as high as they can, and in addition JUST manufacture and sell cars p day by day, here there is no middle ground for those who want to have fun with the car, or it is daily, or a money pit. Civic type R, TRD series? just heard, BRZ? passed away, there is even a rule here that is the following: buying a new car is bad for doing business 100% of the time(like is aways a scam, like a legal scam lol) on politics: any sensible Brazilian, (especially now), knows that there is really no way to break the corruption system here, the best thing to do is to elect enemies among them, once the whole government is in unison, Brazil becomes a Venezuela, it almost happened with the Lula and Dilma PT, the idea of electing Bolsonaro was precisely to have this fight up there and decrease or at worst just stop the leeches advance a little, the problem now is that Bolsonaro he sold himself to try a second round and save the skin of the corrupt children (he is too, but, I and many thought not, and yet, at least he wasn't with the usual ones, so we had the hope that he would stop their power project), now he is putting all the wealth of the country in the hands of the same corrupt as always, just like the PT and all the rest, just to get a re-election, if he wins the re-election we will have a "new" corrupt system completely established if he loses r for someone from the "center" or the left, it screwed up once and for all, since he approved almost all the laws and emedas that totally shield corrupt politicians and judges. In short, Brazil is a USA if the crisis of the unions and the mafia had worked out for a longer time, but, if God wants us to fix it, fixing it is something that is in the blood of the Brazilian PS: sorry for the long text, it was summary I swear lol
@@oliv3iraDan thank you for clarifying some things. I found that video interesting and wanted to hear it from someone who lives there. Much of what Brazil and the US governments are becoming is similar to what Italy went through just before the Fascist took over.
I've laughed at a lot of things in my life, but I have never laughed as hard as when James mentioned how scary the w12 timing is. When you look at it in person for the first time it truly causes some intense anxiety.
As someone who has always been a fan of the Pheaton and is seriously considering a first generation continental: you mean this as a joke for how complex this looks, or are there serious problems that can destroy the engine? Cause so far, all the information I have found point to this engine being close to bulletproof.
@@stephans1990 No serious problems, i was more making a point about how stressful it is timing the W12 because of the complicated timing system. I've only ever done and that was in a training program, otherwise the only work I've ever done to a w12 was a few oil changes and electrical/sensor issues.

Yes, but Greece didn’t invent democracy. Democracy is a natural form of self-governance that has developed independently across different tribal societies. Even if you want to give credit to Greece, you’re really just talking about ancient Athens. Moreover, the current Greek population is mostly different genetically from the population that existed at the time of Greek democracy’s inception.
DrSeanKennedy Fair point. However, I wasn’t comparing ancient Greece to modern Greece. I referred to ancient Athens as Greece just because it is today the capital of the country and the phrase “invented democracy” was just for the sake of replying to james quote. Btw the fact that the dna of ancient greeks differs with the dna of modern greeks was in my opinion false as it is not based on any facts and Greece is the rightful “owner” of the ancient greeks’ ideas as they identified as Greeks so it belongs to its heritage
I'm not so sure if some of those cars are truly that expensive to maintain and if you do your own repairs. Audi A8 and BMW 7 series seems actually doable good deals. For the Chevy Spark budget you could buy them and likely fix everything that's wrong with them. Drive them for some years and enjoy luxury, which you will never get from Spark. I see some people buying those cars cheap in Europe and having a financially manageable luxury transportation.
@@pd925 Well duh that's because you have to dial the 9 button, then the Plus button, then the 2 button to make 11. Don't they teach you kids nothing in school no more?

It’s so weird that the 3 series was the e36, the 5 series was e39 and 7 series was e38…you would think the 5 would come before the 7 when talking about chassis codes.
@@logancosandier3958 well this is 2020 and most now know the Earth is motionless and flat and space and the round Earth is scientifically impossible. But there are still some dedicated, Tell lie Vision watching, TNASA/SATAN loving globers who refuse to face the truth that will set them free.
A TV personality here in the Philippines literally gave his unit away, after it caught fire on the engine area. Good thing the cabin kinda survived the fire, and the frame sorta survived, though the skin melted.
This dude frequently does that on purpose, oh and he also has a tattoo on his arm with green in it that sometimes gets keyed out. th-cam.com/users/FactFiend
I think the SVX would make a good honorable mention. It was Subaru's attempt at a luxury sports car and was loaded with all kinds of quirky 90's features. They sold for $35k-$40k and can be bought for about $2000 today.
I own a e46 and I can absolutely subscribe to that. Even if your engine is mighty fine, robust and you change oil more often than your underpants... Everything else just keeps on falling apart. Freakin beamers are made of the cheapest plastic they could find.
Hey I just wanted to thank you guys for all of the videos you made. You guys have inspired me to learn so much more about cars and now it’s what I want to learn to do as a career. I’ve watched almost every single video because Ik I can’t find all of them but I’ve seen all of the science garages and I love everything you guys do you’ve opened up so many doors not only for me but many others too and you make it fun. Please keep going and making more content because this is my favorite channel and I’m sure many others too 🙏🏼🙏🏼
This video reminded me of a guy here on TH-cam talking about cheap supercars you can afford, and he starts with an Audi R8 at 45k. Although James talks about cars that you can actually afford, for a moment I was like "please James don't disappoint us like that guy" but Donut Media never disappoints!
In college I drove a Rolls Royce for 4 years that had been abandoned in a parking lot for like 15 years that I paid $2k for, then another $9k for a second salvage titled' one for parts. It's possible to get what used to be a $100k+ car dirt cheap if you can put in the work, I even made $12,000 on it in the end when I sold it to get something that wasn't a pain in the ass to maintain.
"Audi's are thought to be some of the more reliable luxury cars" I know I mechanic from a german shop that would like to speak with you. #TurboInlineOilFilter
4:00 The e38 Aka the greatest potential electric conversion ever. Give it power, silence, and reliability, matches the e38 well Also they look so dang pretty
Came here back again after I saw Christopher fixtopher's video of him gifting a Maserati to his Dad. Not bad considering he has an entire TH-cam channel on how to do maintenance on a car, so more content for him to make, it's a win-win. Man knew what he was doing.
When I was in college I bought an abandoned early 70's Rolls Royce Silver Shadow for $2k. It sat in a parking lot for years, I always wondered who owned it and why it was there, then I eventually tracked down the owner and he was willing to nearly give it away. Turns out it only had 18,000 miles on it. Cost me like $9k in parts from another donor car that had been in a rear end crash, so the engine and all of the important stuff was still perfectly fine, and quite a lot of mechanical work on my part to get it back in good, driveable shape....but an $11k total (plus however long I spent working on it) old school Silver Shadow was kinda dope to own as a college kid. Not the easiest car to work on as a guy who came from 90's Hondas then an Infiniti G37S which are a piece of cake compared to an old R-R... Drove it for a couple of years then ended up making $12,000 on it in the end. Plus I was the only guy on campus that drove a Rolls Royce hahahaha. But one night some (probably drunk) jackass broke off my hood ornament and stole it. Fortunately I had another one in my garage ;D. Though my neighbor had a Ghibli that his daddy bought for him haha. But it was one of the new ones that may as well be a rebadged 5-Series BMW.
@@KylesMonitors I LUCKED OUT 100% Finding a salvage Silver Shadow that had been in a rear end crash relatively inexpensively that was within a year or 2 of the same model year as mine that I could pick parts from. Mine was a '74 and the parts car was a '75, and since it had been rear ended most of the expensive bits I needed were undamaged. I had to buy a few new parts, but got most of what I needed from the salvage one. Plus I ended up with a bunch of Rolls Royce parts that I could sell and make some of the money back once I sold the one I had fixed up ;) I wish I'd been more into youtube back then, as that probably would have made for a pretty interesting series of videos. Instead I was filming and editing for my ex-girlfriend who was one of those makeup-beauty guru types. hahaha
I had a 740IL for a loaner when the dealer was working on my Passat, and I really loved it. Much like the Merc S class, you can see the trends auto manufacturers came to adopt, much much later down the line
I've been binge watching tons of Donut. 2 things 1. Your editors are on point, great job y'all! 2. I want to be friends with everyone on the channel, except Nolan. ;)
There is almost 800 dislikes on this video right now. This video is facts about cars. I cant wrap my head around how people could dislike the video. Just wow. On the other hand. Love the channel guys. Keep up the good work. Great content
Area of Interest Those are trash, because even the most minor fix on one of those will cost you $6,000. People can’t give those cars away, they’re all going to the scrap yard currently.
@@gt131970 good luck you'll probably have to shell out 1k in specialty tools and that's not including parts for a Bentley engine, plus your sanity because you're basically working on 2 vr6s that were shoved together and dont really come apart
I drive a 2010 Audi A6 Quattro that only had one previous owner, and I got in for only 9k. It’s also fairly fast with “sport mode” and has a manual mode with paddles. I love my car and plan to drive it for a long time.
My father had a 750il ... He got it for cheaper than the previous guy's last maintenance costs because no one wanted to buy a 18yo V12... But it was in fricking perfect condition and it was beautiful in your ears when accelerating. That said... It cost an arm each time you go to the gas station.

I'm not so sure if some of those cars are truly that expensive to maintain and if you do your own repairs. Audi A8 and BMW 7 series seems actually doable good deals. For the Chevy Spark budget you could buy them and likely fix everything that's wrong with them. Drive them for some years and enjoy luxury, which you will never get from Spark. I see some people buying those cars cheap in Europe and having a financially manageable luxury transportation.
Any luxury car is a money pit. Sometimes you just gotta say fuck it and live your dream.

not true if you know what you're doing... and if you're looking at these you HAVE to know what you're doing.
This saying has been around for long time. He wasn’t the first to say this stupid. Don’t attribute quotes to people who steal quotes from others…
It’s so weird that the 3 series was the e36, the 5 series was e39 and 7 series was e38…you would think the 5 would come before the 7 when talking about chassis codes.

Flat and green, like the earth. Which is blue.

I’ve watched almost every single video because Ik I can’t find all of them but I’ve seen all of the science garages and I love everything you guys do you’ve opened up so many doors not only for me but many others too and you make it fun.

This video reminded me of a guy here on TH-cam talking about cheap supercars you can afford, and he starts with an Audi R8 at 45k.
Although James talks about cars that you can actually afford, for a moment I was like "please James don't disappoint us like that guy" but Donut Media never disappoints!
"I not died last year" is cracking me up way more than it should.
"Expensive cars that you can buy cheap"
more like "Expensive cars that you should not buy because they are unreliable"
He’s telling us to buy the chevy spark tbh
Well, they cheap for a reason..
Not to mention expensive to fix
In college I drove a Rolls Royce for 4 years that had been abandoned in a parking lot for like 15 years that I paid $2k for, then another $9k for a second salvage titled' one for parts. It's possible to get what used to be a $100k+ car dirt cheap if you can put in the work, I even made $12,000 on it in the end when I sold it to get something that wasn't a pain in the ass to maintain.

Came here back again after I saw Christopher fixtopher's video of him gifting a Maserati to his Dad. Not bad considering he has an entire TH-cam channel on how to do maintenance on a car, so more content for him to make, it's a win-win. Man knew what he was doing.
When I was in college I bought an abandoned early 70's Rolls Royce Silver Shadow for $2k. It sat in a parking lot for years, I always wondered who owned it and why it was there, then I eventually tracked down the owner and he was willing to nearly give it away. Turns out it only had 18,000 miles on it. Cost me like $9k in parts from another donor car that had been in a rear end crash, so the engine and all of the important stuff was still perfectly fine, and quite a lot of mechanical work on my part to get it back in good, driveable shape....but an $11k total (plus however long I spent working on it) old school Silver Shadow was kinda dope to own as a college kid. Not the easiest car to work on as a guy who came from 90's Hondas then an Infiniti G37S which are a piece of cake compared to an old R-R... Drove it for a couple of years then ended up making $12,000 on it in the end. Plus I was the only guy on campus that drove a Rolls Royce hahahaha. But one night some (probably drunk) jackass broke off my hood ornament and stole it. Fortunately I had another one in my garage ;D. Though my neighbor had a Ghibli that his daddy bought for him haha. But it was one of the new ones that may as well be a rebadged 5-Series BMW.
BAD ass
Awesome story man. I'm glad you stuck with it and finished the car instead of just dumping it when it got expensive
@@KylesMonitors I LUCKED OUT 100% Finding a salvage Silver Shadow that had been in a rear end crash relatively inexpensively that was within a year or 2 of the same model year as mine that I could pick parts from. Mine was a '74 and the parts car was a '75, and since it had been rear ended most of the expensive bits I needed were undamaged. I had to buy a few new parts, but got most of what I needed from the salvage one. Plus I ended up with a bunch of Rolls Royce parts that I could sell and make some of the money back once I sold the one I had fixed up ;) I wish I'd been more into youtube back then, as that probably would have made for a pretty interesting series of videos. Instead I was filming and editing for my ex-girlfriend who was one of those makeup-beauty guru types. hahaha
