I love these used car videos so much, they're far more realistic than driving an McLaren P1 for example.
Keep 'em coming!
TheTastyDuck ^^
@Car Throttle
TheTastyDuck agree!!!
Keep them up! I Love the £200 car things your doing
Exactly
The best drift car in the world is a rental car
That would be the fastest car in the world :)
Daniel Sadjadian fastest car in the world lol no, ae86 is the best
FEARTHETACOMAN Hows 7th grade coming along
Marcell Meszaros pretty tough
isn't nissan r34 the best car in the world which makes it best drift car and fastest car in the world?
these cheap car challenges are awesome!
Yeah it reminds me what I loved the most about Top Gear
hoaxerable Yeah dude check out our video
hoaxerable IKR
maxi obor It is Grand Tour now so much better it is all uncensored. 😂😂
Alex would make a great presenter on either Top Gear. The yobbo youf too balance yobbo pensioner Clarkson
So short answer is. "No, but my mate can."
You can drift anything as long as you have the balls to do it
i wanna see a peel p50 drift
so I can drift my friends 68bhp fwd shitbox?
it does have to be rwd
PizzaPunt just do the old tray trick
good luck drifting a tractor
4:46 Interesting, if you break the top of the tail lights in a W202, you get a W124. lol
Hahaha exactly
Well better paint over them
Great observation
LOL
Woow
Video title: "Can I Drift This £200 Mercedes?"
Me: "Where do you get a Mercedes for £200?"
In Latvia.
In finland too
Clapped out W202s used to be cheap 😂
Probably the cheapest way to drift...
statesidesupercars Haha that's what I thought until I vlogged while drifting a rental F-150 😂
you could also buy a cheap e36 or e30 318. They Drift pretty good
Preferable a 318IS Standard LSD
318 find some 20 years old tires and weld the diff. And itll drift like a beast, for future buy some cheap rockhard coils from ebay for 400euros. Thatll help with entering and car control
+jannplanken "rock hard coils from eBay" and "more control when entering" should not be in the same sentence together.
200 pound car
still has leather seats
Ofc its mercedes
And sunroof tho
How are cars so cheap in the UK? Everything's so much more in Aus...
Hugh Jaynis nice name
Surely you have some sort of old boring car that was massively sold in Australia and now goes for as cheap as a pair of shoes?
Because most are really wrecked and bad
Neel Parmar
In Germany you can get cars for 50€
Cars are cheap but insurance is expensive so it's not so great
You can drift anything with eurobeat.
A wild deoxide as appeared!
how dose this only have 14 likes
Dejavuuu i just been this place before...
Bruh i just watched the gura video like 4 hrs ago🤣
*Cheap Eurobeat plays in the distance*
Angst I know. dreadful isn't it.
Moving your legs at a rapid pace in a period of time from 1990-1999.
PJ Zizzle lmao
I'M A SCATMAN
EA40 xD classic mate
That next 'coming soon video' looks savage.. CAN'T WAIT!!
mrlilmatt123 ok
me either xD
@CarThrottle Here are your options if you want to drift this thing
- Weld the diff
- Wet Track
- Skinnier tyres
- More power
- Clutch Kick
I dont wanna be rude, but how do you clutch kick automatic transmission ?
I know there is kick-down when you floor it but it aint really a clutch kick.
CHZZ My apologies, looks like i missed that fact.
Thank you for the gentle reminder.
ScoutSpyScout just air up the tires like hell
ScoutSpyScout yeah clutch kick an auto mind
ScoutSpyScout and suspension replaced with solid bars or some
Old germans are fun at winter on ice.
yep...winter fun with...german's car :))
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Old german cars are one of the best ever made !
yeag,vw golf mk2 is one of my favourite cars,american version with jetta front side is great
No, he said old Germans. Nothing about cars.
all that entertainment for £200.... definitely a win!
Weld the diff cut the exhaust off and take the springs out run some dry rotted rear tyres £200 drift car
Or over inflate them.
I want a car to drift and rag about so badly now 😂
Bond Right! I made some videos destroying rental cars now I'm hooked 😂
Bond do you waste all your time watching and then commenting on videos? I see your comments everywhere ffs.
Bond dude stop, you're everywhere
£200 will see you right!
Bond Inthe UK you get fucked for drifting your car. But on a sunday after 4 you can do anything in the empty Tesco car park. 😂😂
The w202 is such a great car! So reliable and the ride is as smooth as it gets! 👌
Drifts better than porker in his s class
ha ha....but that huracan is not bad ;)
rekt
Toby Tong that noodle face nissan dude with his supercharged prius won't do shit either
Wout Vandermeulen ha ha ha...i don't know how on earth can u spread so much love for that "nissan face dude" epic ;)
1:42 Thats how i need to move the wheel to keep my 1972 beetle straight...
3:00 Tyres, yes. Try overpressuring the back ones to - say - 40psi. That'll make them far more easy to drift.
i personally own the same vehicle, a manual C180, 1995, and i gotta say - next time you are looking for a cheap and old vehicle what to drift with, this is absolutely amazing tho. just needs an upgrade on the suspension system and DEFINITELY has to be a manual, automatics are VERY hard to drift with, because you wont be having full control over your vehicle. still a fun video, love it!
it's actually fun to watch you guys having even more fun :D like it
Find a $200 BMW
E46 BMW DUDE Found a 190€ E36 1.8 BMW
heh.. it will probably be, etiher A. on bricks B. with a blown engine or C. Used in some fishy stuff.
E46 BMW DUDE there are plenty
No I bought it and use it to drift and since i have got the car the only thing i needed to Change was the alternator...Guess this was the one Out of thousands
yeahhh..for next video...
Is the car rear wheel drive?
Anonymous Yes
Anonymous almost every mercedes and bmw is
Turboahdettu Supra right but now not more
Turboahdettu Supra The A Class Mercedes is FWD
You can't drift a FWD car.
that's why i love from car throttle, cheap cars! top gear did the opposite and i hated it, now it's gone and you guys came with those £200 car videos, keep them up!!!
I love the old car vids you guys do, one of the best channels on RUclips in my opinion
Second! Any car can be a drift car if you try hard enough!
# ItsWhiteNoise FWD hmmmm nope
love your videos! air down front tires to 25, rear tires to about 80 and Welding up the rear diff always helps :-)
love these kind of videos
Love this series keep it up!
Orion from Haggard Garage would probably drift it no problem...
+Car Throttle old banger being driven by a hoolagan, the norm if you live on a council estate
Love your channel dude
Always giving a nice video to watch !
lol i was thinking the whole clip like "the F man, clutch kick it" then i realized its auto.
Just rename the channel to "£200 Car Throttle"
Tom. A
L

Great reviews and in my opinion useful too!:)
Keep working!
"baby drift" :))) perfect video :)
I hope to continue this drift serie
It won't drift because it's a grip togue monster
Now we know why Natsuki was with the old guy that drove a Benz.
Kyle Pasta unlock the ABS and the ESP and then go drifting
it has abs
• I drive one and it has abs
its got all those. abs, stabilty control and esc
Alex Gassman is OMGGGGG
You boys make me laugh,best channel and not far from TV quality
maam i've been waiting for this kind of video for years now. amazing bravo
needs a welded diff and a stripped interior!!
Coilovers as well
and cutted springs :D
i've gotten myself a 3.0 i6 W124, for 1500 quid, but now I really want a 200 quid car xD
It's a 5 speed manual trans, but thanks for the tip!
Is it om603 or 606 or is it petrol m103-m104?
I have w124 too, but its only 2.0 i4 (om601). Turbocharged it last summer i have always loved that ''built not bought'' style, its just getting to know your car all the way.
It's an m104, got it from an old lady XD
I've gotten new spark plugs, oil and filter for her, and she's ready soon!
Yeah, I also love that feeling, knowing that my car is crap, but im getting to know every inch of it!
Getting new injectors and air filter soon ;)
Nice keep it running :)
Love these Vids! More cheap car vids please!
Btw you are great.
the momment alex wave his arm through the sunroof. thats what real joy is
Have you thought of a series,in witch every 2-3 months you will buy a crap car and do all sort of funny things with it or even better,buy a saxo or peugeot rallye and do rally cross with it?I think it would be fun...
Wow wee. That mercedes only weighs 200 pounds. BUT HOW!
carl shneebly that's because your mother is not in it :D
carl shneebly that's because your mother is not in it :D
carl shneebly Im from America to but he means money.
200 british pounds. Currency, not weight.
carl shneebly because it's fucked up😂
this was very fun to watch just them yelling and cheering when they managed to do some drifts was great :)
This top gear style videos are great!
Like a great man once said. Yes We Can!
Luca Car Mods Bob the builder?...
Berniksus Yeah duuuh who else?
Alex, I love how you always keep your videos real, and have genuine fun doing them. So much entertaining to watch than the whole bunch of former car spotter who now only make "what's my next Lamborghini gonna be?" videos. Keep it up!
haha, cheers! Beater cars are my supercars ;)
Keep this work up! This is so awesone
You'll like Wednesday's video especially ;)
Coming back to this vid years later never thought I'd see Alex from camber and combustion on here lol
call Oliver Amon ;D
Who else thinks CarThrottle are the best you tubers ?
ahahah this was the best episode of u guys so much fun
Love these kinds of vids😂
keep the benz and make a project series
Should have clutch kicked the hell out of it
Hahahah 4:03
That was my face exactly during that "drift"
Love that track only down the road so hyped to do an auto test there again
lose the weight and it will be easier :)
Savage fuck
Emir Hamidović bruhh
Would have been good if it was a manual
what the hell does that have to do with anything
Cars and tech to initaiate oversteer and minimize understeer he could have kick the clutch, reved out gears, used the e brake while the clutch was engaged so he wasn't fighting the car. Way easier to break traction in a manual car and control it. Wouldn't matter too much if he was driving in snow/mud/rain though
tecnui ahh
Yea, but e brake is used with pedal on older mercs exept w201 aka 190 :)
Firstly you dont need a hand e-brake for this car from personal experience because you can kick the shit out of the clutch even in the c220d which is slow af just clutch kick the thing and you are ok ;)
Many years ago a friend rerouted the tubes from the windshield wipers to the rear tyres of a Datsun 120Y. Also he filled up with windshield wiper liquid bottle with oil instead of water. Boy that made that Datsun really drift.
My friend had one of these, we used to do skids with it on the snow. Five minutes later I was on phone with my dad asking him to tow us out of the ditch. Fun times.
No way 200£, in Germany only 1 Mercedes rim costs 700€
Englands car prices are super fucky. Because they have the steering on thewrong side albanians dont take them, neither do many african nations.
And their insurance is bonkers so younh people would have to pay more than thrice the cost in insurance.
£500 jaguar: will it rally?
Only one way to find out ;)
love waching your vids 👍👍👍👍
i love usted Cars vídeos!
How the fuck are cars so cheap in the UK? 200 quid for a mercedes in working condition? are you nuts?
CRGamingHD well define working... the suspension is fucked and theres nothing left of the bodywork, i doubt the internals are healthy as well.
"Working condition" doesn't mean legal or safe. £200 for a car and thousands more to get it back on the road.
Well the thing is that I compared what the car would cost if it would be sold in my country, that's why I am so astonished. Here in Romania, this would be roughly 500-1000$ in this condition. And as you both said, you would have to invest a lot , arriving to the point where it isn't worth it. But if you want a car just to have fun with, it would be good ( not on public roads ).
CRGamingHD selling mine in spain With 167000 km for 700€
hahahaah hilarious
Nice vid!
I Remember that once winter i got even our McCulloch 8hp drifiting a bit of land.
Of course downhill...:)
You are not allowed to stand on the top of a Mercedes ...do that using your BMW ..The best or nothing
Tselikas N. Yiannis total disrespect
The old Benz is a pile of junk, but still street legal according with the UK government.
Registration number: L464 VRK

You guys looked like you had alot of fun making that video. Definitely put a smile on my face 👌🏼
Cheers, was awesome fun!
i really like these cheap car vids!
This, really, was the worst generation of Mercedes ever built.
beeeneee why do u say that? we had a one for five years it was a tank
I had both an E class and a ML from that period and both of the cars were crazy unreliable. Applies to the C class as well, look at the statistics...
beeeneee my c class is reliable
beeeneee from our personal experience regardless of statistics it was a super reliable car. So I guess we got lucky
Mine is a 96 c180. AND IT REALLY IS A TANK! I love it. Found it for 200£ because there was some stuff broken on it and the keyfob wasnt working(because of a loose button). Fixed it, and 1 and a half year later, I still haven't paid more fore repairs and services than I bought the car for and it is a total blast on the winter roads.
Also easily doing roundabouts sideways without any trouble :D
0:42 Amazing turn!!!!!!!!!!
One of the most Iconic Mercedes Chassis models EVER. My dad owns a C280 elegance in Manual transmission🤘
Nice video! :D
WE NEED MORE VIDS OF THESE
Alex is having way too much fun.
More £200 car videos! Fun!
Great video
You need to make this into a series!!
please do more with this car its to good that looks awsome
More videos like this please 😍
always wanted one of those old c classes for drifting. Cut the springs, weld the diff and put thicker oil in the shocks
A have the same car and it can drift on slicker roads...Did you remove the ASD module located at the right hand side under a hood cap near the latch. Roundabouts are a no-go with it installed and it causes the massive understeer. It is the Mercedes version of ESP.
Good luck with your buddy in the Mercedes, now leave me the hell alone. #eurobeatintensifies hahahaha
That little Merc C looks pretty stable in its footprint, reluctant to break out the tail. Might be a nice solid car to have around, then...
I drifted a '98 Yukon in the snow one time, but that is just about all the drifting experience I have.
you guys are fun :)
I've got a 1995 C220, The w202 chassis is not "wollowy". It's a actually one of the best handling rwd small cars ever made by 90's benz. Similar to the 3 series of the time, a good set of tires and these handle like they're on rails.
You guys should make a series about cheap cars like this, they're entertaining!
how many inches was that wreck close to the camera?...... LOL.. great stuff
