    Nice ones. The Golf and the Honda seem to be good choices but, speaking for Europe, they're still quite overpriced. For a 4/5 years old Honda, depending on the mileage, they are still asking between 20 and 25k, pretty much the same for the Golf.

      You are right in many markets but I also scoped some classifieds and found some decent prices in a few cases

      Yes it's hard to find Good used Cars under $10.000 especially anything after 2017, But >now he didn't mention low mileage Cars with Clear Titles, Just to be Fair.

    Thank you for uploading this all I want is cheap, honest transportation right now. I had a Kia soul with the infamous 2.0 L. it just barely made it to 200,000 miles and the engine blew up on me without warning. my 2007 Subaru Forester, which I keep for a back up car has surpassed that mileage and is still going strong.

      ​@@ECPPThat $20,000 is the price of a USED BATTERY PACK. Try $30,000 + for a NEW BATTERY. No thank you. I will keep my Toyota Corolla Hybrid LE.😊

      ​@@markkrispin6944I don't know where you have asked for a used battery, but in Norway a used M3 costs 4300 euro.
      I think battery warranties in Europe is eight years and 160,000 km/100,000 miles.

  • @CorvetteStingRayLane

    I like your video. I taught myself how to drive a 4 speed manual transmission on a 1966 Corvette Sting Ray, Muncie M21 Close Ratio Transmission when I was 15 years old growing up in Stamford, CT in 1980. I do not agree with your comment about why would you want an Automatic Transmission on any vehicle, like that you said on the Toyota GR86. I can drive a Manual transmission. But what happens as you age & get older or you are traveling with another person, whom can not drive a manual transmission,. Suppose you need them to drive the vehicle while you are in the car, because you are not able to drive the Vehicle due to health issues? Now any one can drive an Automatic Transmission built vehicle. I am a former owner & restorer of old Corvette's from the Corvette's Model Years of the 1963-1967 ( Sting Ray) and 1969- 1975 (Stingray) model years. Presently I am a Judge with the NCRS= National Corvette Restorers Society. (Boynton Beach, FL. (USA).

      @mann_idonotreadreplies Рік тому +2

      I agree with this comment. The manual is overhyped and lots of People missshift and damage their engines. Only buy reliable conventional (non CVT ) auto transmissions and you won't have problems. I can relate a little because I injured my right elbow and couldn't move my right arm lol not because I'm old 😊👍

  • @MichaelNovello-q4i
    @MichaelNovello-q4i Рік тому +1

    I was able to suffer passed the VW, but the Mini was it for me. A good used car is not about the looks and design. Both the VW and Mini will cost plenty to keep running as used cars. At least the Nissans are cheap enough to be disposable when the grits hit the fan with them. Might as well include Hyundai and Kia in too. At least they self destruct.

      A Mazda 2 is sub compact car with a 1.5 L engine and Mazda 3 is a bigger version with 2.5 L engine. Mazda doesn't sell the 2 here anymore but they are popular in Europe and Asian and the Toyota Yaris was a rebadged Mazda 2.
