Exactly. I do appreciate all the work from all other Car- and Automobile-Channels in UA-cam and stuff, but they always show cars, that 90% of the people can’t afford. Which of course makes sense, since we get to know more about them trough the videos. But these cheap cars videos are something, we all can relate to. So they are super fun to watch. Amazing job.
I don't know what are you even talking about Sam. It's not like someone having a bit of an incident with the royal mail lorry while driving a golf gti.
More of these please. This Top Gear "cheap car" format was the one that worked for them and you guys are nailing it. Defo more auction house action to. Maybe see who can get the best value car for 500 out of the 3 of you?
CarThrrottle is honestly better now than it ever has been. These three brings me soooo much back to the old gold days of Top Gear. Especially this on, with Alex bidding, I felt so much when James had to bid on the last car in that classic car auction episode👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Been a sub for a while now, have to say that it is great to see a channel where people don't take themselves too seriously and actually have fun. Keep it up guys :)
Should took it on a trip across the world and back, gave it a nice little clean and sold it like new, low mileage rarely used lol I just released that its best to sell in auction since ppl are clueless
Crazy how you can buy 2 tidy mk5 golf tdi's and can barly buy 1 tidy mk4 with the same money, And little secret the injectors for the arl asz engines are worth a mint second hand, so even if you got a rotten mk4 tdi for 300 you can get that if not more back from ebaying the injectors alone
You nailed it with the idea of making a camper van!!! Please do a series for the Summer and take it all over the UK and Europe!! I would run to see those videos:)
Can see the top gear formula falling into place. Think the reason people enjoy this like the old trio is it felt authentic and this is. There's nothing worse than scripting and this really isn't. Real blokes and real money
This was the video that finally got me to subscribe, i have been enjoying this channel for ages and i love the direction you are going in. Keep it up buttlords.
My first car was an Omega A/Carlton, 2,0 8valve automatic with 446000km on the clock. Amazing winter beater with LSD. Since then I've owned 4 other Omegas. ALWAYS THUMBS UP FOR OMEGA! With everybody doing supercars and exotics, these beaters are often overlooked, but they get us around every day like true reliable friends. We need more of these videos
Seriously. This is SO much fun to watch. Auctions are great, even non-car ones. And I don't want to speak for all car enthusiasts but this is exactly what I mean when I tell someone that I like cars. I like the cheap. The weird. The ugly. The funky. The ones that get you home despite everything. Or don't. Seriously people. Buy secondhand. You'll love it. Keep this kind of content up guys and the road to stardom is open.
Car Throttle is the best channel on UA-cam. Like you, i have never been to a car auction and watching this was a hysterically funny and interesting insight onto what goes on. My heart was pounding when you were bidding and i could stop laughing. This video should have been atleast an hour long. I cant wait for the next video of the Omega. You need to go on a mission with it.
Im 16 and I want that omega bc imagine doing a LS swap from a commodore Edit: I'm not even a Vauxhall fan but the omega is one of my favourite cars for some reason, someone once 2jz swapped one
Then it would just be a VX Commodore wagon which you can find here in Australia for about $1000 with an LS1 from factory. Why would you bother going to all that trouble?
My dad had an Omega when I was a kid and it was the first can actually remember. I fell deeply in love with it and I still am. I'll own one soon, this made me immeasurably happy
This so weird Last week somebody smashed my car up so came to this place last thursday and brought a swift if i didnt i would of been there this tuesday and seen you i wish i was there
Sebastian Nistor these prices would definitely be awesome. The MOT or whatever they keep referencing seems like a big deal breaker on some cars though.
@@reedstemen MOT is an annual inspection for the car. Costs £50 ish and the car shouldn't have any major warning lights , should have good tyres and basically be safe for road use. I like this concept.
HELL YES! I used to have a Omega 2,5 V6 CD sedan with manual trans. Rear wheel drive and the rev happy 170HP was a good deal. But turbo that thing and its a absolute unit.
ohhhhhhhh I would've taken that Bora without a second thought, are you kidding though I think it should've been all three of you getting a car and doing shit with them later
Had a silver Bora TDI (all red so 150 hp version - red I is 110). Bought it at 3 years old and ran it for about 6 years until just shy of 100k when, despite regular servicing, the cams went pointy and smashed their way through the followers. Had to give up on it (although bought by a bloke from the owners club who rebuilt it, did it up a bit more and kept it I think), but I loved that car. Was really nice to drive and was my first `nice` car (i.e. not a heap of crap Clio/Fiesta etc). For boring reasons I now have a Focus Mk3 160hp diesel and it's nowhere near as nice.
The Cheap Cars challenges are the best thing to ever happen on this channel! I love it! 😁
I wonder if they'll ever get big enough to be able to do a special? Or even a mini special? That would be incredible!

@dr 92 Exactly!
*Hell yes!*

Remember top gears auction classics episode, when they go for a rally?

Yea
12 years later,we still get the 'old Top Gear' feel in a different form.Love it!!
Great episode. Love it when Jeremy bids on James' behalf lol.
@@MisterAki43 yeah because he just sat there not bidding lol
“What kinda van is that?” “The best sort”😂😂💀💀

These 3 are genuinely more entertaining than the current top gear trio!

@@karlmiller3623 chris harris is a decent presenter as well
agreed
That is pleonasm!
No faking either unlike the TG bunch
challenge idea: each one has 500 for buying a car, whoever sells it for the highest wins
That is an amazing idea!
That’s brilliant!!
Bloody epic idea
You mean like Hagerty did? Yeah that would be neat.
Does the 500 cover the car AND repairs/modifications...?
NEED SO MUCH MORE OF THESEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Yeeeeeeeeeeees
Yesssss pleaseeee

There was something quite sinister about that “let’s get it” after mentioning Royal Mail red 😂😂
I have one of those, not in Royal Mail Red let me tell you, but in Fire Department Red. And not a gti, but a whopping 1,9 SDI. Love it.
@@riikilae I have a skoda fabia estate with the same beastly 1.9 sdi

The online bidder was probably the owner of the omega 🤣 this is great content

*Stopiddd that noo vaan looooł*
Smh
Where’s the obligatory WD “I’ve just bought me a cracking Vauxhall estate” line?
Howd owt your hawnd!
This should replace the current top gear
Yeah boi
That Omega is some great drift material right there or perhaps a v8 swap
Even as an auto?
Is it RWD?
@@sumchap4138 Swap it for manual as well
Neel Parmar Yes, Omegas are RWD
Luca Becker that’s exciting! Shame it’s an auto but I think RWD opens up a few opportunities
Love these!!! But want to see the high 500k milage car get restored!!
I've had 2 Omega Elites for 14 years - they're great fun, high spec,
reliable and cheap to run.
Love these reminds me of top gear
except its better (if your talking about the new one that is)
Your videos capture the spirit of the old top gear shows. You guys are absolutely amazing, please keep making those videos and stay true to yourself
Ahhh, the Omega, best car Vauxhall never made.
You can thank this car for my subscription to your channel!
The dynamic between Alex, Jack and Ethan reminds me a lot of Jeremy, Richard and James.
even better, no fake
The early top gear episodes 👏🏼
you guys are getting better with every episode. Amazon should comission you lot to make a tv show too
This is officially the new old top gear
"James, you buy a Citroen!!!" hahahahaha
Yes, I remember that hahahaha
More of these please. This Top Gear "cheap car" format was the one that worked for them and you guys are nailing it. Defo more auction house action to. Maybe see who can get the best value car for 500 out of the 3 of you?
2:22 it’s a two plus two. That’s a four🤣🤣🤣

thank you! - watching your episodes during lockdown and making life abit more bearable
Never clicked so fast on a notification

This was amazing!
We need more!
Keep smashing this guys love this
Been a sub for a while now, have to say that it is great to see a channel where people don't take themselves too seriously and actually have fun. Keep it up guys :)
Couple years back my dad sold a mk4 1.9 turbo'd golf for £200, I want it back now
Should took it on a trip across the world and back, gave it a nice little clean and sold it like new, low mileage rarely used lol
I just released that its best to sell in auction since ppl are clueless
My dad sold a mk2 jetta for 200 I wish i had a driving license back then to have bought it off him
Crazy how you can buy 2 tidy mk5 golf tdi's and can barly buy 1 tidy mk4 with the same money,
And little secret the injectors for the arl asz engines are worth a mint second hand, so even if you got a rotten mk4 tdi for 300 you can get that if not more back from ebaying the injectors alone
You nailed it with the idea of making a camper van!!! Please do a series for the Summer and take it all over the UK and Europe!! I would run to see those videos:)
"I need a van! I've already got a touring"
*Buys another touring*
I abosulty LOVE you guys doing vids together like I didnt think the channel could get better but you guys are amazing at making the best content.
This is quiet literally the Top Gear bidding episode, and I absolutely love it!
Where can you have more fun other than a car auction ? Well done lads cant wait till the next episode

Please do something similar to the Omega like to Miles the Skoda. I always loved it so much! Huge fan of Opel/Vauxhall :)
Definitely keep going with these cheap car challenges !
Never thought I'd see my neck of the woods on here... Witney represent! Big up the West Oxfordshire Massive 😂

Thats quite possibly the strangest thing iv ever heard. but hey, if u wanna do it then go for it
Opel couldn't fit a v8 into the Omega because it's too narrow but if you want to try then I have 3 of them on my drive at the moment....
The commodore V8 does fit the omega but you gotta shoe horn it in there!
Then it would just be a VX Commodore wagon which you can find here in Australia for about $1000 with an LS1 from factory. Why would you bother going to all that trouble?

"Comes with a garden" 😂 epic comment
Please do another auction video, it was really fun to watch
This is the best thing since Top Gear cheap car challenges, and this is a lot less scripted too
This is proper Top Gear stuff Jeremy, Richard, & James will do.
Well done.
I really liked the Bora dont know why i love those old VAG Cars so much
Cos vag
Ethan booping the window with the camera, brilliant
That moment when you remember that a £500 car in Great Britain is actually at least 2 times that price in your country
you probably dont have that high insurance cost, pollution cost, etc.. sum it up and it probably gonna be cheaper in your country.
Tomas you probably earn 3x more, sum it up and it’s cheaper in your country :D
