Is this a british thing i don't get or have i missed something? i find nissan sunny's absolutely revolting. never in my life have i ever heard somene say i want a nissan sunny apart from in this video!
@@kidz4zisch yes you have missed something, there must be something wrong with you lol Nissan sunny are very very good cars and look very good as well 😂😂
Still, Gumtree had its problems too. How many times have you clicked an ad on there only to see "price is for engine only. The car is not for sale, only breaking for parts"
"1234, you know the facebook rules. It means I'm a twat" I can't tell you how many times I saw a car for $1234 and was like "wow, this looks great for the price", because I forget people are assholes
because facebook flags it as too expensive, if you enter the VIN for example and it checks out as an 06 mustang gt despite beeing a genuine Shelby 281 for example. FB market place is bull
I mean, the insane privacy issues, the anti-competitive monopoly problems, the blatant disregard for the responsibility on their platform, but yea.... Also bc you find shitty cars
a shame, especially because you just know that that audi, for that price, would have been in mint condition.. Probably could have done rally stages in that.. would‘ve appreciated a bunch too, just like Phil, double probably Cool video though! Nice to see a challenge once in a while, keep up the great work!
I don't think I've ever seen this level of being underwhelmed at the end of a cheap car challenge before!!! The bit where Jack almost lost his nose got me 🤣
Sorry fellas, I’m not with you on this one. The Audi would’ve been much much better. I thought after the test drive you’d say no. I’m usually always on your side, this time I’m not though... shame
Me too! I thought they were for sure going to buy the Audi after that test drive, the MR2 doesn't have the same cool factor yet because of its condition
Audi 80s drive very unique, it remains wonderful to look over that long bonnet, and the B3 models are very light and therefore easy to throw through the bends. I love oldtimer Audi’s!😍
When you list most old cars on Facebook, their algorithm says "this vehicle is not worth £8000" like the P100 and doesnt allow you to advertise it for £8000. Its a pain in the arse, hence all the £1234 and £8000 not £800 as li"sted
So thoughtful of you guys to continue the beloved cheap car series. I know you guys are probably dying to do an expensive build series but you stick with the 1000£ or less stuff out of love for your fans. ❤️
I've been having a look around the comments instead of watching the video because I was rooting for the Audi. Then I see this lady, @ ` NWK_ in literally every Audi comment, saying the exact same thing. At first I thought it's déjà vu . But no. Probably a bot.
@` NWK_ Its an auto, non turbo, has been mucked around with, and is making noises. Its a cool project car for sure. But compared to the audi a80, that mr2 is rubbish.
I for one am really glad you guys started these videos again , I definitely enjoy these vids and your podcasts the most . Fingers crossed for lots more and son good long vids of Ethan fixing it up haha.
That's Facebook marketplace for you. You can't search for exactly what you want as you'll not find it. You can only search by going to the category and looking through everything within that category. Type 3 series BMW into search and it tells you there are no listings within 100 miles. Go to cars and scroll through all of them and you'll find loads available 🤣 It drove me mad for 2 months while I was searching for a car but eventually got what I wanted
me sitting over here complaining about how you drove without the intake bc dust could have easily gotten in your engine which could scratch the head and possibly lead to more oil being poured in
I had a J reg MR2 in 1999, for a few short months, until a lorry into me... fucking loved that car, was not a turbo either but so good to drive back then, it felt really lovely actually. Take care of this little one!
The lady with the Audi 80 deserves to see the car go to a good home. I'm not saying CT is that good home, but I'm sure it's better than some homes it could see it go to being on that marketplace.
I'm glad you went mr2. Even as a big bag or crap its cooler than a beige Audi. The celica is basically the same car but not mid engine. Can't wait for the next video.
MR2 is nice and all, but it's been done to death. The audi would have been perfect, and the owner, she seemed a a dear lady who was quite honest about the state of the car. It would have been a great classic German build.
Would have preferred the Audi but hey you could build an MR2 rallycross. Paint easily sorted then with some Raptor! I recently painted my UAZ 469 with this stuff, easy to apply and great finish!
I paused at 12:32 to write this. I used to have an MR2 and I loved it. It was stupidly tail happy for a car with only 180BHP but it felt like a real sports car. It was a two seater. It was mid-engined, I thought it looked great and it had popup headlights. The first time I flashed my lights at someone during the day, it made me laugh out loud to see the lights pop-up, flash and then pop down again. I vote MR2.
The Sunny is mine 😂 35 years old, 143K and still in daily use! It does genuinely have new tyres haha
nah,.. if your buying they are part worn now ;)

These cheap car challenges are the best videos you guys make. They're all great but I watch these over and over like repeats of Top Gear on Dave..
ye top gear this channel actually brings back good memories
Agree
Agreed and I like the way you see what they look for I always have a look and pretty cool to see same cars not just what they bought
Things you love to see!! Another cheap car challenge 😁

Is that a K1? My mate has a bright orange K1 which makes 400BHP, absolute monster it’s for sale at the moment though but he’s asking £10,000.
@@MasonMountUrMum why is that what you did with your car 🤣
Those are the faces of men who wish they bought an audi 80 instead 😂
After that test drive would have deffo gone for the Audi, bollocks
Never end with this series... *NEVER!!*
All their complaints about marketplace are so relatable 😂😂😂
Well if they'd stop requiring the price to abide by KBB then we wouldn't see so many $1234 ads lol
Actual price is $8,000,000 but Facebook wouldn't let me put that as the price for a 2003 WRX with the engine out.
Still, Gumtree had its problems too. How many times have you clicked an ad on there only to see "price is for engine only. The car is not for sale, only breaking for parts"
$1234 listing is so dumb
I wish they would understand that we put the price as that because fucking Facebook doesn’t allow you to choose your own price😂😭😭
I can’t believe you picked that over the Audi especially after that test drive! Baffled
"1234, you know the facebook rules. It means I'm a twat"
I can't tell you how many times I saw a car for $1234 and was like "wow, this looks great for the price", because I forget people are assholes

Some cars have a dildo steering and driving the car.

I think you just proved why Facebook is to be avoided.
I mean, the insane privacy issues, the anti-competitive monopoly problems, the blatant disregard for the responsibility on their platform, but yea.... Also bc you find shitty cars
@@MrJakson112 Allow me to rephrase my comment. I think you just found another reason to avoid Facebook.
How can you not go for the Audi!? Them 80s are legends!
Probably because the question is which is cooler. The Audi 80 is a great car, but it's not that cool compared to an MR2.
Audi 80s are cool, but 1.6 base models aren't...
@@TheShinyShow true but i'd rather see that than this common car, next car challenge they will prob buy a common mx5..
@@Luckyjo21 same, if Alex had asked "which car should we buy" maybe the Audi would've been picked
The 80 beats the automatic mr2 any day,
Ngl I’d rather have had the 80, but a CT video in the style that first made me fall in love with the channel?
I’ll take that! 🙌🏽
That Audi sounded mint and ready for flipping.
a shame, especially because you just know that that audi, for that price, would have been in mint condition.. Probably could have done rally stages in that.. would‘ve appreciated a bunch too, just like Phil, double probably
Cool video though! Nice to see a challenge once in a while, keep up the great work!
Yeah I was quite upset they didn't pick the Audi.
yeah but its a mr2
That Audi was so cool
@@sixunity1171 but not the cool version. Literally the worst combination, NA and Auto
MR2s appreciate aswell :)
I don't think I've ever seen this level of being underwhelmed at the end of a cheap car challenge before!!! The bit where Jack almost lost his nose got me 🤣
I would have gone with the 80 personally sort of was looking forward to it haha
Sorry fellas, I’m not with you on this one. The Audi would’ve been much much better.
I thought after the test drive you’d say no.
I’m usually always on your side, this time I’m not though... shame
I love the MR2 personally, it's worth the fix
Me too! I thought they were for sure going to buy the Audi after that test drive, the MR2 doesn't have the same cool factor yet because of its condition
The thing is if the mr2 want bought, it would have gone to scrap if it hadn’t been refurbished or tuned
Alex violating jack from being in Essex had me laughing 😂
Salaam jubair
"Violating" :-D
LOL! Ethan reacting to the word "Calm" had me laughing out loud! 😂 😂
The MR2 is the coolest of the lot, how is that a question lol
*nevermind, it’s an auto
Only 5sfe engine would miss from that perfect package...the only question would remain: do you want it converted to fwd? And why? :D
Ethans got so much more confidence compared to the first cheap car videos
You missed a massive comedy moment there, hand the spoiler over and say "Spoiler Alert" we bought the car 😂
Thank you for a new challange 🙌
The Mr2 is cool...but not as an automatic...with this fact i had taken the 80 :/
Maybe a Stick swap?:D
Yeah, bin that auto and manual swap it.
Love how Ethan has grown. Best Denzel impression ‘My man’.
Of course Ethan wants to sleep in a car, the same man who doesn’t know what to search for, this man is me 😂😂
He can sleep in a car but not a vw split screen bus hows that work
"You'll see more of this car" just like the Prelude, MGF etc....
And let's not forget the 100 pound MR2 they already have/had(?)
@@askbeforeplaying2983 exactly and that would of been a decent build
Audi 80s drive very unique, it remains wonderful to look over that long bonnet, and the B3 models are very light and therefore easy to throw through the bends. I love oldtimer Audi’s!😍

@@jellesnaterse6709 of the choices provided I'd take the merc.
Like every other car you buy we're never gonna see this mr2 again just like the mk3 MR2 you got 10 months ago 😂😂

Ah, I just wrote the exact same thing as I didn’t spot someone had already mentioned this. Nice one 👍🏼 It’s properly annoying.
Welcome to AI...
I always get second hand anxiety when they do the phone calls, but I love these videos! :)
Out of all the stupid cars they’ve bought and stupid decisions they’ve made this is by far the worst
"Let's go"! Says Vin Diesel as he slams the MR2 into "D" and creeps slowly away. "Shit if only I had bought an Audi".
What happened to the “KICK IT” transition? 😂
the deadpan "he'll be some sort of dealer" got me
So thoughtful of you guys to continue the beloved cheap car series. I know you guys are probably dying to do an expensive build series but you stick with the 1000£ or less stuff out of love for your fans. ❤️
If you mentioned that the MR2 was an auto. The Audi would have won 😂
Cant believe the MR2 was chosen, 80’s are amazing!
@` NWK_ Imagine preferring a ghetto ass auto MR2 with shit paintwork n loads of problems over a clean stock Audi 80 smh
But they also said the 80 was cool 🤷🏻♂️ thats why it was a choice between them lol
@` NWK_ Ever heard of the Audi 80 Competition??

Audi 80 is such a good classic, can recommend it to everyone.
I have an A4 B6 with 253k on the clock, but I want to go backwards and get an A4 B5 then an 80! Shame they didn't pick the 80 for this challenge...
@@itchyscratch3829 My 80 broke down every month, but man the way it drives...amazing.
When I voted on IG I didn’t know the mr2 was an auto. If I’d known I would have gone for the audi
an auto and the suspenssion was going through the car over every pebble lmao
Auto, NA, paints gone, panel gap, aftermarket parts, parts missing, suspension clunking. Great purchase! Thankgod we didn't choose the Audi A80.

I would’ve gone with the Audi 80 tbh🥴
Imagine car throttle and Grand tour collab, damn sounds like a dream
Honestly I am really glad you chose the MR2 as I really like the bodystyle and uniqueness compared to the audi. Hope to see it soon!

Should of bought the Audi 80!! That MR2 looks buggered! 😂
These are the vid's that interest me. Love the way you hate each other's choices, keep it coming
Would’ve totally preferred the Audi 80! Got one myself and would’ve been good to see what other people think of them
Plenty of people saying they should've gone for the Audi! Including me, getting one is on my wish list. I need to work backwards from A4 B6! 😂
