Top 10 CHEAP AND FAST Second Cars for Young Drivers! *CHEAP INSURANCE*

  • Опубликовано: 8 июл 2024
  • You've had your cheap first car, you're still young, and now you're looking for a fast and cheap second car that has cheap insurance? The UK second hand car market is full of great cheap fast cars that you might be able to buy, but it's often the insurance quotes that'll put people off. For that reason, using the quote details I created as a result of some previous research that help decrease the price of insurance, I've found 10 cars that aren't horrendously expensive to insure for young drivers, and are all decently quick!
    I hope you find this video useful, it's my first proper list video of the year so feedback is well received! Apologies for the super long intro, just wanted to get through everything and get it all explained...
    Don't forget that I make these videos from the UK market perspective so prices in other countries may differ, and remember that whenever you buy a second hand car, maintenance, repairs, insurance & road tax are all worth considering!

    I get so jealous every time I see how cheap cars are in the uk :D
    Even adjusted for currency, you are still paying about twice as much in Germany for the cars mentioned in the video. Otherwise insurance is only about half as expensive here so i guess it evens out after a few years.
    But still, the high asking price of the cars themselves is what's holding back most students from getting a faster car here.

    If u looking at getting a VXR be cautious of the 3rd piston. It’s a massive issue with them as they quite literally blow. Internal forging is quite common with them to help prevent this issue so would be a good idea if you are looking to get one.

All in all though, very excited!

    Brilliant video again mate!
    I'll keep saying it on these type of videos, and it always opens a can of worms with people for reason.. But people keep over looking the humble Puma for a cheap to buy and insure little 2nd car. Its not the fastest by any stretch of the imagination but you wont find something that handles as well or goes as well for under £500. 1k will get you a car and insurance at 21. Theres a reason so many use them as track cars. You won't win any straight line stuff but they are known to upset many high standard cars in the corners. If you're ever in Suffolk you're welcome to have a go in mine!

    Great vid as always, however I personally wouldnt get the corsa VXR. That 1.6 turbo engine is a stressed unit, there were several reported cases of piston no. 4 going full Chernobyl. I think an astra vxr with the 2.0t petrol would be a much smarter choice if you want the vauxhall experience. Nicer looking as well as more spacious while not being much bigger. More power/tuning potential plus reliable. My mate is 19, has only 1 year ncb and pays 170 a month on it. Which isnt bad for 236hp car being so young.
    At the same time, if someone wants to get into RWD gang, It would be smarter to start with a lexus is200 or a 320i, to LEARN how a RWD car handles. Because after driving some FWD econobox as a first car, getting into a 330i is suicide. Handles completely different, reacts completely different and looses traction completely different from a FWD car. Especially in england where the road is always wet and covered in mud, sometimes oil... Today I hit an oil patch in my 90s FWD shitbox going just 40 in a corner with 2 passengers and almost got fucked. Were very lucky I reacted in time and well and only went up a curb and into the mud avoiding a concrete wall.
    Stay safe everyone and learn your car before driving like a tosspot :D

Around 1500 to insure and 1500 to buy for a high/mid mileage models, however are known to be quite unreliable for the massive amount of power from a little 1.4 engine, none the less they do offer a diesel and petrol equivalent which is 140bhp which is reviewed at being a lot more reliable and about the same to insure tbh. so for any new drives who like golf GTIs or hot hatches or even just want a fast cheap car i would recommend having a look!

    Both the 500 and e46 also have another problem you missed and that is rust, you kinda expect it on the e46 due to age but it’s just a little worrying on the 500 as there so new (rust under the car) on the e46 it’s normally the wheel arches and sill. I love the e46 and will be getting one at some point as there so cheap for what you get as I want it as a daily I’d probably go for the 2 litre Diesel as they are everywhere and that engine pulls hard and seems fair bulletproof. If anyone has one and can say other wise let me know 😊

    choosing a project car between a z3 a tt quattro or an slk (all early 2000’s) what would you go for might be my deciding factor

    • @CarsWithJB
      @CarsWithJB  4 года назад

      Good question, one I considered too - I wouldn't go for the SLK personally as it's very basic and not that sought after, but between the Z3 and TT it's more tough. If you go for the 225BAM TT then you're laughing in terms of power and speed, and it'll probably handle better than the Z3 which is surprisingly less of a driver's car than you might expect, but both cars have the potential to go up in value over the next 10 years so idk!

    Ill chime in here, My first car was a renault laguna v6 coupe, using the same nissan v6 as the 350z yet putting out 240bhp, my insurance was £1k where i was getting quotes for a normal corsa for 8k and most other cars were about 2k to insure, today with less than 2 years of driving and coming onto my first no claims (due to crap insurer not giving me docs) i can get a evo x fq300 insured for just £500, yet i was looking at a kia proceed and that is 2k for me to insure, Car insurance in the UK does not care a single bit what engine it has or insurance group it is, the only time someone gave a toss was when AA and Direct line said im not old enough to be driving a 3.5L V6 lol, I can get insurance on a kia stinger for £1200, and most "cheap tuner cars" land on the £700-800 spectrum, My advice, look at the other costs of the car cause insurance is better if its a single payment, And if you know you are only gonna keep it for a year just go 3rd party as they never have telimatics and will save up to £200 (and other prices listed are fully comp with no box) Also if you see an online quote, Thats a buy it now price, Go and call a few people and cut £100 off that and say for example you previously been quoted 400 for an evo, They will come back with something under that even if its £390, The insurance companies lie to you so i lie to them, Only about the price of course, do fill in your details properly incase you do have an accident, Drive safe :)

    • @CarsWithJB

    I have to disagree with, the E46 330I. To be honest, the gas bill can be pretty costly, depending on where you live. Plus, if you get it for cheap, without checking it for rust, you can get screwed over pretty easily. It's a good car (my favourite of the 3 series), but might be pretty costly to maintain, if you don't know anything about cars.

Cheapest quote I got was for like £1700, then looked at the r53 which has a supercharger came back at £1000, then I looked at the r56 and it was £900, the r56 has over 200hp how is it that cheap?
