RUclips became a much better place when ReDriven hit the scene. What a fabulous resource. Thanks guys, you’re both awesome.
A few of you have been asking about a follow up worst cars video. It’ll drop next Sunday. Stay tuned!
Really wish to see your reviews of the Honda shuttle people mover soon. That car looks like a spaceship in my opinion 😅
As a South African, still living in SA, your Chanel is really informative and helpful. Awesome work guys, thank you
Bro! Nothing compares to these guys. 90% of the Aussie car scene is the same as us in SA so it’s so relevant. Love this channel and the format.
Merry Christmas
Thanks for always making great videos
Watching from South Africa and love your awesome show👍👍
Big fan of South Africans who live in South Africa myself.
At this point google thinks I live in Australia. You guys put in incredible effort and hold your ethics to a standard rarely seen I auto journalism. The investigation into actually car experience rather than brochure reading is extremely underrated. Thank you guys! Love from South Africa 🇿🇦
Fellow SA'n here.
I am an American that, after finding your channel, am totally hooked on your reviews. The thorough job you do in supplying information in layman’s terms about the cars you review is awesome. The choice of fun cars you review that are not available in the American market to buy because of over-the-top governmental regulations makes me and my friends so jealous. Lol! As someone who used to work in the parts and service departments of several Toyota dealerships for over 25 years, I was always intrigued by the Japanese Crown and Vellfire models, and wondering why we didn’t have them in the states. I’m starting to see more and more JDM import mini trucks on car carriers coming from the port here in Baltimore, Maryland, so there is some hope. I love what you’re doing and keep up the great work. A loyal subscriber for life.😎👍🏾
It’s not exclusive to the US to have none available models. Us Aussies have so many car brands that do not produce for our market. The US is rightly not allowing the Chinese to control the market and dominate the world market, you guys should be happy about that. We gave away our manufacturing ability many many years ago.
Thanks for the content guys, found you this year when looking for a first car for my son. Can’t believe what I have learnt from the backlog and how keen I am to learn about cars I never knew existed. Have a safe one
Thanks for a year full of informative reviews and entertainment. The way Redriven is headed, I can only imagine 2024 is going to be even better if it is even possible. Thanks Adam, Jim and all the hard workers behind the lens!
Keep growing guys!! Always a pleasure to watch your reviews from here in the UK.
This channel has quickly become one of my favorites on RUclips. Thanks to all of the crew for their hard work and great videos
Thanks for the year guys, looking forward to next year. As Jim happens to be my mechanic I rely on his advice a lot. Cheers Steve
Thank you, redriven.
Don’t ever change
You’ve got the thing nailed 👌
I come from a family of Toyota tragics. My first car was a '66 Crown Station Wagon, followed by multiple others. After having Euros and a few other marques, I think the Crown is calling me back. Excellent review. Thank you guys. I'm keeping my Valiant, but returning to my youth.
Thank you both, l love the honest reporting. Looking forward to next year’s show.
One of - if not THE best car channels on RUclips. Thank you so much for a great year - and for promoting Newcastle as a city that's not just full of bogans!
Been great to find your channel , have a great 2024
Thank you, guys. Thoroughly enjoyed every clip you've put up. Merry Christmas 🎉🎉😀
I’ve been throughly joying ReDriven for a while now, honestly such a brilliant concept and you’ve done a banger job in delivering useful and fun content for all those in the market for great (or possibly shite) 2nd hand cars of the past couple of decades, there’s some properly useful advice, insight and opinions to be had. Good stuff guys and please keep it up! The final commentary on the personal car of the year was particularly close to how I’m feeling at the moment, as an E92 M3 6 spd owner I’ve been taken aback by just how fun and practical an NC 2 MX-5 is on good twisty Aussie roads for the past few weeks. Lots of fun to be had in an MX-5 in the right environment, horses for courses.

I think my wife's 2022 Focus ST flies well under the radar. I haven't seen many around and most people just think it's a regular Focus. I test drove the i30N, Golf Gti, RS Trophy and Peugeot 308 and the ST was the best driving experience IMO. This thing can do crazy things up a windy mountain road, the chassis is just amazing. And even though it's front wheel drive it still has amazing amounts of grip. Fantastic car!
love your channel guys, such a unique perspective, keep up the great work!
Well done to you both.
Great information on all types of cars. Looking forward to your channel this year🎉
Love it! Thank you guys , I love watching your show.
Great channel, great episode. Happy holidays to all of you.
Merry Christmas AK and Jim, great channel looking forward to new nugget reviews in 2024!
As a South African you guys rock, I'm happy to have stumbled upon your channel
Probably one if the reason i love the channel is most cars you feature are also available in South Africa,so it becomes relatable
I've only recently found your channel, and I gotta say, good find!
Thank you and a happy new year from Israel!
Enjoyed all the content throughout the year fellas, thanks!
Cheers for the awesome year of information guys! Keep up the amazing work
Great work, really appreciate your work and content fellas!
Merry Christmas and thank you on a great year of car reviews people can actually buy!!! Props to the huge amount of research on reliability and problems ... May 2024 be even bigger foy you guys! 🎉
Thanks for another year of great videos and entertainment boys. Keep up the great work ❤
Thanks for your work fellas. Love your content.
Great work guys, have a great Christmas and a ripper 2024 !!!
Another great year of this superb channel. Wishing you and the team a very Merry Christmas and an even better year ahead.
Enjoy some time off your shows are bloody fantastic, Cheers guys 🙏
Great summary…well done fellas!! 👏👏
Congrats on another successful year, love the videos and look forward to what comes in 2024!
Was happy and sad to see you love the MX5 so much. I share the same love for them having owned an ND GT from 2018 to 2020. I only sold it due to pre ordering a GR Yaris which I honestly really disliked and sold a couple months later.
Been searching recently for another MX5 and seeing others enjoy it just like I did makes me happy! Not sure whether to try the RF this time round! Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas!! Thanks all for your hard work
Merry Christmas guys. Looking forward to another awesome year with your videos. And here’s my beer. 🍺 Cheers!
Daily would have to be a Lexus. The Crown is next on the list. The MX5 is a great car and I get it, but I love my MGTF 160 with the race prep I have done. Thanks guys, it has been a great year of great videos, take care, looking forward to what you both bring next year.
thanks for a great year, one of my favourite channels
love my 105. 24years old. 400,000km. still my daily. just a great car, as long as you don’t want to
get somewhere quick.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Guys!! Keep up the good work!! Your humourous and well researched car videos are just getting better and better!!!!
Thanks for the great year of fantastic content!
My eyes are still peeled for a good NX in Melbourne hopefully that time will come before new years!
U guys are awesome. Just straightforward opinions backed up with facts. Much love from 🇵🇭
Thanks for your useful and entertaining insights throughout 2023 gentlemen. All the best for 2024.
Great year boys, keep it up
Awesome video to finish off the year. Redriven is my go to channel for car reviews - loving all the JDM car reviews you have been putting up (I’m looking at buying a crown). Happy NY 👍
Hello from Dubai! Came across your channel today and really enjoying the videos!
Thank you Adam, Jim and the crew at ReDriven. Great channel and content. Always look forward to your videos. Best wishes for 2024 ! Cheers Steve G
This channel has helped me purchase my first car. It's overwhelming weighing up all the options but this channel has helped me narrow down my search, and actually identified what my car preferences are 😊
Thanks guys! We really believe in what you're doing, so keep at it. We recently bought a 10th generation Toyota Crown, and its the best thing we've ever done.
Thanks guys for the great content. The GR Yaris and MX5 look like cars that are more than just fun - they have soul.
As a daily driver and after a long day at the office, the NX is fantastic.
Thanks for a great year, guys. I really enjoy your work and love your thoroughness in researching a car and the professionalism in presenting it. Have a wonderful Christmas, stay safe over The new year break and look forward to seeing you in 2024.
I honetly felt like I watched the 2022 version not that long ago. Thanks for the vids guys!! Merry Xmas and Cant wait for more vids in 2024!
Thanks team. Have a great new year. With age comes wisdom and I now find it challenging if not impossible chosing the best car...because no one car does all things good. At the minimum the best car would be 3 cars with different attributes for specific applications. Cheers
Thanks very much gents for a great channel. So informative and has helped immensely when buying a used Lexus IS and Hyundai Santa Fe.
Most of all just the joy of cars, no bullshit or wankery.
Great reviews this year guys ! The car you reviewed I'll hopefully get next year will be the Suzuki Vitara - because it gives me the ground clearance, AWD and power (turbo) at a decent price I need to get up into the unsealed roads in the mountains here in NZ.
Merry Christmas Guys. Love your channel. Not sure about the imports but get it as there are only so many AUSDM cars you can review.
Thanks and great year of review guys ! Fun Factual and 100% Aussie !! Hope 2024 is a ripper for you
Thanks so much!
Awesome show guys love the content and honest opinions. Blew me away with the Crown .
Thanks blokes, I did miss a few but what I saw I liked.
Thanks for the great content Redriven!
Great information and very informative reviews. Unlike most new car reviews which are little better than advertorials . Would love to see your review of the Skoda Yeti 4x4.
Hey thanks for the awesome channel. Love it. If you’re ever in Brisbane. Happy for you to review my Audi 2015 RS4. Last of the naturally aspirated V8s…it’s a wagon too. Hope to hear from you. Thanks again for the awesome content. Merry Christmas.
Good stuff mate! Been here since you guys still had triple digits subs. I knew you were gonna make it big someday with the awesome quality of your reviews :3
Love your reviews guys!
Thanks for the great content.
I have a 100 series with 250,000 miles (402,000 km), it's great. Took it to Moab Utah recently to test it out on a few easy trails, was great. 2,000 miles over a few days period on holiday, did all the things in quite comfort.
Greetings. How do you all do. Thank you very much for your auto insights. Highly appreciated. Thank you very much once again. I am viewing from Nairobi Kenya currently.
Thanks for everything guys, happy Christmas!
Great end to the year mate
You have helped me decide on purchasing an R36 Wagon in Biscay Blue in the new year - Thanks.
My number one car of the year would have to be the Nismo Note. I just think that that is where the future of hybrid tech should be going. Its such a great idea and yet nobody has been doing them really.
Thanks for the vids this year guys. Used your recommendations and serviced my Jimny at the 10k mark and done by Jim no less, rather than the 15k like Suzuki recommend. Definitely would recommend Jim as a mechanic, such good customer service and so knowledgeable
Merry Christmas champions. Fair dinkum the most down to earth, genuine, no bullshit car review channel on the internet. If it wasn't for you guys and one of your reviews I wouldn't have fallen in love with the cheap runabout I bought this year --- Suzuki Swift Sport 2007.
Keep up the fantastic work and 2024 ya'll hit a million subs without breaking a sweat!
Cars I'd love to see -- Alfa 156 or 159, maybe a GTA with that gorgeous 6 cylinder.
Have a great one gents 🥳🍾🎄🥂
Car of the year for me --- the MX5 as well. If I could afford a late model I would grab one for sure.
Thanks adam and jim. My favourite car channel. Well done. Really impressive video on kia picanto gt but it got no nomination?
Great review of the year, really interested in some of the cars you mentioned, e.g. GR Corolla but still love my Cayman S manual
That Volvo is the one.... Until Australian conditions kill it.
Love the reviews... And car nuts.... Happy Christmas
Thanks guys. Would love it if you could review 10 year old Lexus LS's and GS's. Thanks again!
I bought the 2023 i30 n-line premium ……… manual so far blown away it goes has tech, only disappointing point was the Apple car play that still needs to be plugged in 🙄 so I bought the Bluetooth for it other wise it does everything I need it to.
Great discussion ❤
People carriers, like the Velfire are extremely popular in south East Asian countries like Singapore or Malaysia. They always travel with their grand parents and multiple kids and these things are so fucking good. I don’t own one in AUS but if my parents came with me everywhere I’d buy one too
What would I pick? The Alto Works that I have on route from Japan as I type this! Your review confirmed my need to get one. Thanks Guys!
Great channel!! I’m gonna go see Jim I need a car fixed that’s been hard to diagnose.
The GR Corolla is so nice, went and looked at one at the Toyota dealer and I didn’t initially like it as much as the GR Yaris but WOW. I was truly blown away by the GR Corolla.
Great videos guys, you always reaffirm my love for Toyota too 😊
Merry Christmas Jim and Adam. Loved the content this year and I would 100% have to agree with your picks. I’ve always been thinking about a Swift Sport but a newer 2017+ one, is it as reliable as the older ones you reviewed?
Hey man, if i may answer for the Swift Sport 1.4T, thanks to a turbo, its slightely faster than previous generations, but its not as reliable as previous 2 models, mainly cause of modern turbocharged direct injection engine - problem with carbon build up on intake valves. Older models still have port injection so they dont have this problem.
One of the best car channels full stop. Keep up the great work guys!
Love you guys
Honest and no B/S reviews and opinions
Love the SSS in the background
You guy's are awesome. Love the content,vibe and honesty. See you in 2024 🎉
I bought a 2013 Swift Sport on the back of your review and am really happy with it. Excellent small run around without the blown out price tag. Love this channel and well done gentlemen
I drove the gr corolla and ultimately bought the new 2023 civic type r. Arguably just as fun, better performance, better gear change and way way better interior. Also a YAY I currently own a mx5 nd2 as a weekender as well. Would definitely agree on being the most fun car on public roads.
No Brainer....Type R is a masterpiece.
You live an amazing life man… what a garage!
@@MrBlackiichan yeah, I'm fortunate enough to be in the position to have both. They are sweet as 😂
Awesome video! In our opinion though the S660 reviewed would have out MX-5'd the MX-5, but solid choices lads. See you next year!
Hey, great show please keep it up.
Can’t believe you don’t have more viewers! Great information and so entertaining. You guys nail it!
Really enjoy the channel guys, great job, keep on going like you are. Personally never thought I would drive a Kia, I've driven a wide variety of vehicles and a lot of them RRS's etc, the Stinger is something else, never go anywhere without getting a comment or a look. I didn't buy one for that, just a nice add on, I sat in a Police Stinger and that was what did it for me, no I wasn't under arrest I was just having a look at one parked up and the officer offered me a chance to sit inside, now on my second one................... "Stock as a rock" and awesome
Adam & Jim, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching your reviews over the year! One of my top RUclips channels! Car wise it is my number 1!👏🏼👍🏼 Bring on 2024 you bloody legends!🤩🤣
120n ,love mine, amazing value
Really enjoying your reviews, they just seem more real. I decided to buy a Suzuki spacia, as reviewed and love it. No dramas sitting on 100kph and super good on fuel. being a little van practical too.
How the hell can you dislike the Yaris over the mx-5, which the Yaris runs rings around?
As an X5M owner, I see your point and respect it. I appreciate the value of your content and enjoy the unbiased opinions, if that's even possible! Keep them coming!
Thank you ReDriven! Keep making videos of used cars! I find you guys a reliable source for my next purchase. Used to buy new Toyotas, now thinking of an upgrade to a used Lexus or BMW
you guys realy helped me to buy a "new" used car even if I live in sweden. It all came down to a volvo s80 2009 2,5 liter. It is realy stabil and like sitting in your livingroom and drive.😁
