We Bought the Internet's CHEAPEST Rear Wing
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 июл 2024
- Amazon sells some cheesiest and worst quality car modifications on the internet - so we wanted to see if any of them are worth buying. We spent £500 on 10 different mods with everything from a set of bonnet vents to a huge rear wing.
We actually bought a rear wing on Amazon for £70
We let you guys decide between a Prius, a Multipla, a PT Cruiser and an Aztek and THIS is what you voted as your most hated car.
Neither me or Callum wanted to drive the PT Cruiser home, so there was only one way to decide.
After the most uninspiring drive I’ve ever had, we finally made it back to the office. Scott was definitely impressed…

Put the PT in a wind tunnel to see if any of the mods you just did make it more aerodynamic
Even better, put in on a Dyno to test horsepower gains from the aero mods. The hood vent and scoop probably add 5HP each, the chin spoiler another 5, and the wing must be good for 20!
@@MK-1010 u mean minus right
@@kingo5940 he meant what he said, stickers add 5hp each.
I hear Red Bull have just freed up some wind tunnel time to help make this a reality (...at least that's how Horner's spinning it, the spare capacity is absolutely not due to any impropriety on their part, they just wanted to properly understand the PT's potential)
@@Stuzo2 They may have heard the rumor, if you floor a PT long enough it'll go plaid.
PT cruiser cabriolet is EVEN worse. Looks like a bathtub on wheels
perfect for hot tub streamers
Good for a challenge of a mobile jacuzzi
My eyes cannot unsee that monstrosity :(
That’s true! Haha
Totally agree,this car is ugly with power !!!LOL
Reverse the polarity on the horn it’ll sound then. The compressor only work in one direction
100%
That doesn't use a compressor, its a vibrating disc with a rivet hit by that electric motor. Either the striker or rivet broke.
Its called a klaxon horn.
@@ku8721 nup, wired wrong.
Yeah
@@sleek86 No it is a Klaxon horn it has no compressor and will work if wired backwards. I've fixed plenty of those some of which being close to 100 years old and worked on a crank. Watch Technology Connections video on Klaxon horns for way WAY more info on car horns.
I find it somewhat funny that Donut Media bought to Euro cars to do this stuff and Driven bought an American car. Good fun.
Yes👍🏼
the grass is always greener on the other side of the pond? lol
When I clicked on this I thouthg it was a Donut video lol
@@manuxalfhalo same lol, then I heard the accent
@@manuxalfhalo donut has a similar feel, loose and fun!
2:16 the most high spec 30 bucks mirror ever 😂
You should shop off the roof and make it a convertible and put some chrome wheels and flames on the side 😂
It's not like it's gonna rain any time soon this year 🤷
they made those from factory, lol
@@06racing I KNOW !! But not in the UK they're not, can you imagine turning it to a beach cruiser only to get rained on 🤣🤣
Better, make it a pick-up/ute!
That would be good if it did rain one more pt cruiser off the road tho some hot rod ones don't look too bad if I'm honest if it's done right it's a small chance tho
@@Mr.Nabil.Belhaj They absolutely did sell the PT Cruiser cabriolet in the UK. An old neighbour had one... There's even one on Autotrader right now.
This could be a semi-serious and potentially funny test: Fit opposite wheels with the most expensive tyres you can get, and the other side the cheapest tyres you can get. then do acceleration, braking and cornering tests.
This is such a good idea for a video 😂
1100 for a car in that good of condition and they ruin it. I don't like the pt cruiser but don't ruin a perfectly good one. That car was in great condition especially considering over half of them were lemons.
That's a fantastic idea.
not safe but silly enough to do it
@@likeablecloud2454 It was ruined from the factory.
I drive a PT Cruiser that was given to me by a relative, and I must say, after I put in some time driving it, tearing it apart, repairing it, and once starting it with an allen key instead of the car key, I have developed a real fondness for it. It can be a pain in the butt to only be able to open the window by taking the switch module out of the dash and pushing on the back of it while pressing down the switch, but it's quircky like me and I love it.
This is too good for the internet. Will's monologue when first driving the PT Cruiser was hilarious, with no gimmicks - and it just kept going. My goodness guys. Seriously, it's great to watch something entertaining on RUclips, especially automotive RUclips, laugh my ass off, and still feel like an adult afterwards.
That wing, with a few arduinos and servos, could be an active aero-brake.
Then its the PT Cruiser RS Sport AMG GTR S L M-Sport Plaid.
The horn should have been called 'Hornda type R' 😂
I remember Gran Turismo 3 back in the day. Loved messing with the tuning to eek out a bit over 400 horsepower out of a PT Cruiser. Those were the days.
I hated those until one day a customer brought his PT Cruiser in for some tires. I got in, realized it was manual, realized it had a BOV and turbo, he said you'll be suprised this thing rips. We go for a quick pull and I'm blown away how hard this thing ripped. The PT is a "I'd hate to love it" kind of car.
Oh yeah, like the other guy said, it's basically an SRT4 or whatever it's called, the PR models with a turbo are essentially the same exact engine
A GT Cruiser
Yeah even the auto turbo models are under 7 seconds for 0 to 60
The dashcam - I didn't buy a crappy cheap one like that (mine was about £140), but it was one of the best purchases I've made and have been using it for almost 2 years without issue. It gives much a better view as you don't have a whole car to look through, and it can easily see into blind spots with it's wide angle lens. Recording front and back is also a blessing. At night lights are dazzling, but they are through a normal mirror anyway. If you are thinking of getting one, definetly don't cheap out on it and look to spend around £150.
there's pros and cons for that design. wider rear mirror is good for visibility, I was able to see through the rear passenger door. That particular one was a right hand camera, but most are left hand camera, meaning it wasn't always a good position, favouring more of the left of the windscreen view. The size also counted against it, as they were often hit by the visor, but may be ok on larger vehicles. I personally would avoid rear view mirror dash cams, but I wouldn't write them off
you should test the structural integrity of the PT as it passes through the crusher at your local salvage yard!
1000x this, one more PT cruiser off the road.
For the vents, you should have used a heat gun to soften them and make them fit better... like it really mattered 😁
was thinking that too, especially considering they just did the wrap on the subaru. you'd think they'd have heat guns on the brain after that. lol
the small vents were in reverse 💀
I'm thinking some rally style mud flaps (big and floppy, and red so they stand out). Also some vortex generator fins and maybe a rear diffuser.

The fact that the most hated chrystler is also the best theyve made shows a lot about their cars😭
Ricing out a PT is the best content to watch in the early morning of November lol
For a start, fit the all of the vents properly, if you can get rid of the heat building up under the bonnet the engine temperature *should* stabilize. Good luck with making a Subaru Supercar fast.
I had floor mats like these in my Escort. Immediately made it 5% cooler also blinded me when. The sun was right. They were silver though
Thanks for the feedback,

That bonnet scoop is def coming off over 30mph 🤣
I come from a community built around a RUclips channel called Vilebrequin, I love what you do we find the same energy to break cars for fun and a little also for science! They did the same with a multipla and made it a pure war machine shown at the Mondial of Paris
Thanks from France 🤩🤩

It is hard to choose a worst/most embarrassing mod but the exhaust whistle takes the gold for me. It also brings me joy that the UK was blessed with the gift of the PT Loser. It is the pinnacle of American engineering and design. Nothing we can do will ever live up to it.
Put a twin turbo setup in it and see how much power it makes that would be a show
The fact that you spent more money on a PT Cruiser than I spent on my daily speaks volumes about the PT Cruiser.
There are 2 pt cruisers near me that are i think owned by same people which have the same wing but with flame paint many stickers and white wall tyres they look amazingly hilarious props to them tho on the efforts they put into them
Ive always had a thing for odd vehicles like the PT Cruiser, it really needs the front bumper removed and a custom grill like the 2000's Sprint PT Cruiser at the SEMA show

I absolutely love the direction this channel is headed
Put four spare tires on it and drive it around a track.
I'm not sure if you could do any science with that setup, but it'd make for a darn good video :D
I put a double bladed rear wing on my 2005 Ford explorer a couple years ago and people hated it. I left it on my car until I sold it earlier this year
Another episode of OG Top Gear
Add a short shift kit and a eBay universal turbo kit.
Race it against the track Subaru wagon.
I'm looking forward to seeing this competing in the LMH Category next year ;)
Congratulations on 300K!
"Look at that, it saves fuel!"
"But only when."
I actually put those same vents in my hood. They do actually help with heat. I should have gotten bigger but they aren't terrible.

Loving the content lads! Reminiscent of top gear but much more pure! Hot rod the s**t out of it then send it to the bangers DD event!
Hahah loved this episode, some funny bits here and there and the video was just entertaining all round
300K!!!! Congrats boys
Driven media: "we bought a car that none of our audience like"
Also Driven Media: "it's our new test mule and we're going to make loads of videos with it"
I don't know if it'd work in practice but my idea is to totally refit the PT and try to make it into a really good car. Like for example, put in the engine from a type R and the dash from an old jag and so on, make a Frankenstein car.
The turbo versions have the srt4 motor I think just do that 🤪
Good thing Scott was there to explain all that technical jargon about downforce otherwise I would've been very confused. 😆
The PT Cruiser in 2000 was an absolute game changer back when it was released in 2000. It was a car that was really really hard to get ahold of and dealers were marking the prices up because of the high demand. Over time people though realized it was not much more than a Neon in a different wrapper.
Nice try SCAMMER….
you should test lift kits and mud tires. that would be an interesting thing for this little pt.
Now that donut sucks, these boys are picking up the slack. Great content boys! 👌 keep it coming
I bought my mum the rear view camera works a treat.
Just needed a good memory card.
Great video guys love these.
love the guys at driven media..one of my fav alongside donut media !
This is the most entertaining & funny car show. You’re doing great! Greetings from Germany 😊

First the SLK 230 Longtail ECO MPG, now the PT Cruiser RS Sport AMG GTR S L M-Sport.
Will is the master of naming car models.
You should call it the Beauty Cruiser. And you should try door trims and protectors. Also Led Ligths, Amazon is full of those, interior exterior, bluetooth. Anything.
Great job! Vilebrequin would be proud
Try extremely large wheel spacers
The UK Cruisers sticker 😂 tells you everything you need to know
As we all know happens to hated vehicles, in fifty years the PT Cruiser will become an icon.
I think the pt should have as many spoilers as you can fit along the top of the car and along the hood as well, for the hood just try not to block too much visibility🤣
great video!👏 would be cool if you bought a cheap car and make it look decent with cheap mods
If only you got a PT with the fake wood trim, Then driving around beeping that horn would almost feel period correct.
Totally
That exhaust whistle pales in comparison to the original whistle tips. WOOO WOOOOO!
At least you did it to a PT cruiser, I appreciate that ;D
You should warm up the air-vent while it’s sitting in place until it take the curvy shape of the bonnet
Your sponsorship is a scam
Funny enough my mum uses that exact dashcam, it’s actually surprisingly good for the money, I fitted it in her car including the rear camera it came with, it’s better than a lot of the expensive ones I’ve seen 💀
I had the same car same horn 🤣 mine was loud enough to make the neighbours come out think you’ve got a duff horn 🤣
Estimated titles are a scam. Do better driven media
Ngl, I saw that wing on Amazon and I am so tempted to put it on my 2007 Elantra just cause.
I don't plan on having that Elantra for much longer, but I want to do some wild stuff on it just to have some fun with it.
I love my car to bits and I think for the time I have with it, I want to get one and your opinion def helped.
Auf so ein Video warte ich seit Monaten 😂 danke euch Abo habt ihr
Congratulations on 300k!
😂 that rock paper scissors moment was epic 🔥
4 inch suspension Lift kit next 👌
"...saves fuel when." "Saves fuel?!" "But only when." Hilarious.
PT Cruiser is so cool. Looks like late 1930s art-deco style car.
This video gave me top gear/grand tour vibes I love it
I love my pt cruiser!! Wonderful little cars! Yes I’ll admit there a little hard to work on. But I love my pt cruiser so much that I have the patience to work with it!! It’s my dream car! There so comfortable and I love the retro design! There beautiful cars to me!!
Try to make a venturi effect floor with sliding skirts for this thing and take it out for a track day. Could be fun. Could be terrible. Sounds fun either way :)
the horn for £33 was my favorite 😂
As the great philosopher Bubb Rubb once said, "the whistle tips go WOOO WOOO!"
Nice new serie's boysss
My first car was a bright yellow PT-Cruiser, it took thrice as much time to have heat during winter and once the coolant was spilling over and my car thus overheated and I had no visibility, I had to push the car alone during the night. My front-right wheel almost came off while I was driving at 90km/h on a tight country road. There was also an oil leak and eventually my mother borrowed it and gave that PT Cruiser the coup de grâce, at the end I couldn't turn the engine on without having my ears destroyed.
I had it for half a year and did alot of maintenance on it.
"you know when people test the splitter and the stand on them?
"Yeah... no"

You should test how strong the PT cruisers roof is when you drop a grand piano on it from 50ft.
Pity-Cruiser did you say??!
Legend.
This is such a good idea haha
You accidentally made this video into a giant PT cruiser advertisement XD Call me crazy but i actually really like this car
PT cruisers are a kind of missed opportunity for being a cult legend. If they had a amazing engined, basic interior (I.e. be cheap), it would have been a aftermarket legend.
The wing I had on a 1987 Nissan 200sx v6 in 2004 brought from what is now ebay, a flee market. It lasted a year then at the base of the wing deck one of the supports sheared from the wing base. Took the wing off but left the supports on the car lolol. Also had the mirror camera.......... doesn't last very long lol
Thanks for the feedback,

Oh please be careful! With all that rear downforce and front wheel drive car you may do wheelies at speed removing all steering! Hahahahahaha!
Awesome stuff gents.
so what are the bonnet vents actaully for? increase airflow through the engine bay right?
Lol fitted that wing to a mk1 laguna back in the day. Had so much drag at motorway speeds it bent the boot lid

This channel is like the mad love child of the original wheeler dealers and top gear.. I love it
Now take this car and go racing
what happened to the long part of the front splitter ?
Keep going with the riced out theme of this car, and then for the next project to make a car fast use this car. Do a RWD conversion, drop some serious power into it. Imagine the look on people's faces when a riced out PT Cruiser dominates them down the drag strip, or is actually fast around a track.
Hey guys! Thanks for such an entertaining content!
Here's a challenge for you lads: you already have the (second) most hated car in the world, (applying changes here and there within reason) can you turn it into a car enthusiast's pride?
Is it weird that I actually really like this. I mean in a rather ironic way for sure, but it would just bring a smile to my face to actually drive.
