My 125i is basically perfect, 270hp with a remap, RWD, fairly economical, only £800 insurance and sounds so good compared to all the 4 cylinders out there these days
@@TristanBehrens maybe you’re thinking of the 135i, 125i is the N52 which is one of the last naturally aspirated engines BMW made. They’ve been known to last well over 200k miles. Weak points are water pump and cheap gaskets that can leak oil on higher mileage cars, all relatively cheap to fix though
I’m 22, I was considering a Golf GTI but went with a Leon Cupra 290, it was better equipped, faster, cheaper to insure equivalent to the Golf, and I love it. It may not have the same “heritage” as the Golf but it’s certainly a head turner and definitely a car that any young driver should consider in my opinion.
I picked up an Octavia VRS (petrol) estate as my second car and it's literally the perfect car for me. It has so much boot space for a smaller estate car which is perfect for my work and costs about £1300 to insure on business insurance. Its super fun to drive and has lots of potential for more power and pretty good aftermarket support since its an MQB car
hey liking the vids! youre actually the reason why i just bought a 9n3 base spec in blue 3dr as my first car. the pointless polo project series got me really interested in polos and im super excited to start driving and modifying it on the cheap
As an Previous Polo GTI Owner i can say that car was a blast to own ( i did own the Pre-Facelift model Tho) Got Traded to Polo R WRC then but still one of my favorite car's
My Mini Cooper was a big money pit, . The interior faded and peeled. We lost loads on it with things failing or falling off, we just missed out on a massive bill, as the spark plugs where covered in oil. The Mini main dealer had to have the car back 3 TIMES for the same fault within 5 weeks of buting it from them. They ended up going from a leaking aircon pipe to having to swap out the pump etc due to their Laurel and Hardy technicians. We would recommend the Honda Civic Type S, funky interior and a great owners club.
I bought a Cooper with 85k miles in November, it blew a spark plug 2 weeks in, then 2 weeks later the main coolant pipe, thermostat and water pump went and now it’s head gasket’s gone. Very fun to drive but they’re so unreliable
2016 Stage 2 Polo Gti here 265bph. Will leave a stock Golf R for dead. Most common issues on these is a coolant leak that almost all will need and its £500+ to fix and suspension bushes. Had ours 3 years no other issue. Dont even think about remapping without an uprated clutch, so its not a cheap car to modify, even in the manual. The stock clutch is made of paper unfortunately. Ours has everything it needs apart from a bigger turbo to go 400+ hp. Unfortunately its not mine, but my partners. Lovely little pocket rocket. I plan to have it off her when she wants to move on and have it as a track car. An LSD, bigger brakes and a good suspension set up and not many things will be faster on track.
You can get a 208 GTi Prestige for less than 10k with good mileage. The 2015+ models are a lot more reliable and come with a polished crank and they’re better equipped than half these cars too. 0-60 in 6.5 seconds and same Mini JCW engine. I had the pre face lift and it was so much fun and beat a lot of cars like the Fiesta ST’s and could even keep up with 350z’s and C63’s round housing estates
As a 20 year old that's just bought a pd130 MK4 golf as his 2nd car, if possible a vid under 3 k would be brilliant. With features such as a swift sport, Ignis sport, c2 vts, Clio 182,Fabia vrs etc
@Dan Mitchell it's based on the same chassis. The mk7 golf r and the cupra mk3 share the same engine and turbo. The main difference is cupras are fwd rather than 4wd. Traction is an issue on anything other than dry weather but you can eliminate most of that with good tyres and a dogbone insert. Also from a rolling start a cupra will beat a golf r due it weighing less because of it only being fwd. They don't have as nice of an interior being on the bottom of the VAG ladder but if u get a facelift mk3 it's not bad. Pre facelift interior is abit rubbish. I wouldn't say it's better than a golf r. Golf r is much more better as a daily thanks to its 4wd. But the cupra is way cheaper when u compare prices and alot of people say alot more fun and characteristic since its easier to break traction
Good informative vid👍 a lot of the modern hot hatches are definitely more insurable than the 90/2000’s, probably due to more safety features. I was trying to get insured on clio Williams, xr3’s, RSturbos etc when I was 21😣
1.4 twincharged polo isn’t as bad as people say; VW revised them in late 2012 which resolved the known issues. Yes it’s still not perfect but much cheaper insurance and a little cheaper to buy. 2013/2014 models are solid
Got the Polo GTI and while it looks great (especially inside) it's nowhere near as fun as the JCW Mini. Arbarth even more fun drive but plasticy and poor quality build. The supercharged Jaguar is classy and QUICK but absolute money pit for a 21-year old who will not be able to afford to fuel, maintain and service. Wouldn't touch a classic Lotus Elan (Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious) - superb looking but not fast and big challenge to find a good one that's for sale. The MX5 beats the Elan in every department. Best all-round is the MX5 or VRS
I've got a 65 plate Polo GTI. 220bhp and such a great car. Red, wheels painted black, miltek, on coilies etc. In Oxford if you ever fancy a drive of it given you like them.
Can we have a list on tunable cars under 10k. E.g. a BMW 116i can be snagged for as little as 6k and a stage 1 software map will take it from 136bhp to 220bhp with a 0-60 time of 6.5 seconds give or take. A list like this would be good for people who wanna get into the car scene through a good tunable base car
If you’re 21 you won’t know what a dreadful heap the Lotus Elan was when it was launched 😂. Replace it with the TT. It’s not like there aren’t many around. But I do love your videos, thanks.
I drive a Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4t 155bhp at 21 insurance is around £800 for me and car is fairy nippy the only complaint I have is it’s not too practical only coming in 3 doors and being 6’3 isn’t a problem as there is room for the driver but having a 4th passenger can be a struggle, you can also pick them up for way cheaper than anything else on the list, mine set me back £5000 having only 21,000 miles on the clock
Wouldn't go for any of those. Just bought my second car, at 19, a BMW 123D for £5000. 2L i4 diesel with 204bhp, 400nm standard. Insurance for the year with 2 years NCD was £900 for the entry option or £980 for the premium insurance from the same company. Offers good fuel economy and if I get bored a stage 1 remap takes it 265/500. Handling is excellent and it's a joy to drive.
Can't go wrong with an MX-5, there aren't a whole lot of downsides, the latest gen looks great and few things match them for fun. I'm going to have to test drive an RF at some point before I sell the porker, even if I couldn't realistically swap it for one...
@@CarsWithJB I'd take a 981 over a 718 every day of the week! GTS 4.0 might be an exception, but I certainly wouldn't pay more than double to get one- I still reckon the 981S sounds better anyway. Main reason for switching is because most of my journeys are on motorways and I'll be doing some 3-4 hour journeys for work soon so any Cayman or 911 just has too much road noise for that. The 308 GTi is a clear favourite at the moment, only hot hatch that had the right balance of fun and refinement. Wouldn't mind the lower running costs too, I have big plans so want to save as much as possible for a few years!
I’m not sure if insurance prices have dramatically increased but these quotes are so much lower than what I get. I’m 20 and I get quoted over 2k for a polo gti
No mk7 Ford Fiesta ST? They are pound for pound one of the best driving experiences for under £10k, plus can be tastefully upgraded without any crackle and pop maps. Somehow these get missed as they are related to chavs and idiots of the road but I'm nearing 40 and still love mine!
Hot hatch as a second car. Not the first like me. My cheapest insurance was with a black box 2800£ or 3600£ without so I took the best option, 3.600£. This year same car, 2k winner
A work colleague just bought the vxr 2016, it's been abused by it's previous owner and he didn't give it enough of a look or a decent test drive before buying it.
I'm guessing this video's for people who want to go down the finance option, because most of the cars here are relatively new and cost a good few thousand quid to buy outright? Tbh I do like the Mk7 Golf GTI the most
So i was 6 month driver when I got my A1 122ps, on finance and paid 1800 insurance. I had no idea that ncd would be 30% after forst year so I kinda wasted money. But im 21 in 1 month and I will get ncd. I was looking for 420d m sport or a5 s line, up £13k or £15k if in really good condition. The quotes I had were around 1500-1900. Are there any other simmilar cars, you would recommend that would give me lower insurance cost? I looked for 1.8 a3 s line and leon fr, they were cheaper bud damn i love the 4 series look. I would prefer to stay within kinda premium badge or a vw golf, kia ceed
Too in love with my a3 to change it, there’s a million cars that are plenty better than mine but I love mine and I can’t see myself getting rid of it until it literally stops working
These are good cars if you’re a decent driver at 21. I’m 23 and the amount of people I know around my age that get a nippy car and write it off because they can’t handle them is a joke
Hi JB, congrats for your videos! You doing great job here! Can I ask you a favour please? Can you make a video with sport cars under 20k that they are affordable to maintain? Because buying a car is easy, the difficult part is to afford the maintance, service etc. Thanks in advance! Keep up the good work!
Bro just to add about the mini JCW. A clutch is nearly £2,000.00 😳and can only be purchased through BMW! And they’re not that reliable either I’m sorry to say ☹️
Look at the reviews for the place where the golf gti was being sold. Motor Hub 🤣 it’s about 5 minutes from my house and an absolutely horrendous dealership
I'm looking to get my second car and I currently own a ford focus st line 2018 mk3.5 I payed £1700 for insurance, I'm looking to get the focus st line x 1.5 182hp is that a good step up ?
Hi, I am a 21 years old internationial student with full uk driver licience, when I do quote, the cheapest insurance gonna cost me 2500 pounds, even that is a vauxhall corsa. why this happened? How can I find cheap insurance car with 10k budget? Thank you if anyone would like to discuss.
It wouldn't smoke anything, I should know I have one now as a first car Zetec S red edition 138 Bhp 2016 and can't wait to get rid of it. Whilst it's nippy and cheap to insure it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of interior quality and design and is definitely not enough power to have any real fun. Good first car, bad second car.
What are peoples opinions on the Peugeot 208 GTi? I'm thinking for the money, the performance and economy plus nice interior seems very good. Will be changing jobs so a diesel won't be necessary and my 118d's insurance has gone up by £300 with no changes from last year, plus the anxiety about the timing chain I'm thinking it's time to change.
Apparently very reliable if well serviced throughout their life and with frequent oil changes. Fuel consumption will hurt if you do a lot of miles in it though
My 17 plate st-3 was 10k with 38k miles and I paid 800 to insure it and I was 18 no black box , on the other hand got a20 plate s3 with 20k miles atm at 20 and pay 1100 no black box, ok yes it was over 30 grand but I don’t understand how he’s so much to insure some of these much lower power cars with less value
Someone else will know more, but as far as I know its basically a tracker. Records your speed, cornering speeds etc to give a safety score based on your driving style/be analysed in the event of an accident and improve insurance prices. Not something you'd want in any of these cars....
The man with the best jawline on youtube 🗿
Haha appreciate you man!

Another option for a 21 year old is the BMW e46 325Ci at £700 insurance. That is what I've got and it's amazing
no companies provide insurance for me
VW’s are amazing starter cars, but I must say the timing belt was probably my first major issue. Make sure you get that changed

It wouldn't smoke anything, I should know I have one now as a first car Zetec S red edition 138 Bhp 2016 and can't wait to get rid of it. Whilst it's nippy and cheap to insure it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of interior quality and design and is definitely not enough power to have any real fun. Good first car, bad second car.
Finance doesn't count as cheap
I have Bentley since i was 18
Dude!!! Where’s the fiesta ecoboost red editions!?
What you putting on these quotes I got 3 yrs no claims n it’s like 6/7k for insurance
Question JB why have I never seen ya talking on Fiestas??
I've tuned a 206 gti to 6.2s to 60mph. Most modern cars want burnt
Yh in London 2023 it’s costing around 5k
Any suggestions for a decenly nippy car for a first car with East London insurance prices? My quotes for anything quick are looking at £6k÷
£6k?! What age?
@@CarsWithJB i got quoted 6k on an s3 im from east london too
What are peoples opinions on the Peugeot 208 GTi?
I'm thinking for the money, the performance and economy plus nice interior seems very good.
Will be changing jobs so a diesel won't be necessary and my 118d's insurance has gone up by £300 with no changes from last year, plus the anxiety about the timing chain I'm thinking it's time to change.
A bit late but road tested one, felt slow as shit
That jag is a great shout I wonder how much it is to run
Apparently very reliable if well serviced throughout their life and with frequent oil changes. Fuel consumption will hurt if you do a lot of miles in it though
And tax
Vrs Estate for me. Probably go for a remapped diesel 4x4 tho. I really like the looks of the Corsa.
Bro do a video on Mercedes or bmw cheap car places in uk
Damn they seem cheap to insure im driving a banger and it costs me over 3k with a black box but i guess it also depends where u live 😢
In rep of Ireland there is not a chance of getting insured on a gti before the age of like 30
My 17 plate st-3 was 10k with 38k miles and I paid 800 to insure it and I was 18 no black box , on the other hand got a20 plate s3 with 20k miles atm at 20 and pay 1100 no black box, ok yes it was over 30 grand but I don’t understand how he’s so much to insure some of these much lower power cars with less value
How is ur insurance so low
My fn2 type r is £1100 for the year been driving 4 years and im 25, 3 years ncb
you got any named drivers?
@@qoa9985 my dad
Scirocco TDI is underrated but sounds shit, still recommend
Pretty sure anybody over 6”2 can’t drive the abarth comfortably sadly
Glad ur doing insurance without black box fk tha shit hahahah
What’s a black box
Someone else will know more, but as far as I know its basically a tracker. Records your speed, cornering speeds etc to give a safety score based on your driving style/be analysed in the event of an accident and improve insurance prices.
Not something you'd want in any of these cars....
What about an ep2/ep3 type r, 200hp n/a engine , more reliable than all of these engines combined, rapid , easy to mod , cheap-ish
Dahm i musta got well lucky, 2012 audi s3 at 21 and my insurance is only £650 with no black box
