Engine falling apart but gets excited when there’s an arm rest and the aircon is working 🤣 this is why subscribed.
As soon as he says car vertical I skip until it’s finished 😂
I use sponserblock,does it for me and even shows where it is
Glad I have CZcams Red
@@kylewhisman You do know they rebranded to YT Premium
You should make an offer for that 'Wonder Grip' van. It probably does about 5 miles a year.
Lol, I was thinking as I watched, that van doesn’t move! 😂
Or charge them for the continuous product placement 🤷🏼♂️
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
its got stuck
I think it’s a bit obvious Matt charges the Wonder Grip lad for the shots of his logo
Matt's new purchase checklist:
Hope and expectation of profit: check.
Wonder Grip van in car park: check.
Needs a clean: check.
Bosch wiper blades: check.
Service history: ABSENT!
Massively overspent: YESSS!
I loved that Matt was celebrating that he had "free" reg plates, at the time the engine was flashing warning lights and misfiring all over the place.
Great video Matt, as always. Thank you!
You gotta love this guy: "I've set a repair budget of 500 Pounds"; two weeks later; "Well guys, I've overspent on this!" or "I've massively overspent!" If I was going to live in the UK, my first stop after Heathrow would be to head directly to High Peak Autos to purchase a car from Matt!
New drinking game, every time Matt says one of his catchphrases - take a shot. 'Well we're here', 'a good buff', and 'I've massively overspent'. Great video as always, I've never heard of one of these!
"Brake discs looks a bit ropey”, "it needs a good clean"
Crying out for a set of reg plates.
'its got a clutch at least'
'pulls well'
'thats had paint'
If I played that game, I would be as pissed as a rat!
Do my electric windows work?
My old man's Aveo LTZ has done 249,000 on the same engine, clutch and gearbox.
Is it the diesel or petrol
They are all over the USA and usually driven by those with utterly poor credit and they're always beaten to within an inch of their lives. There's a green one in my town that doesn't have a straight body panel on it and the headlights are being held in with tape. 🤣🤣
They’re known as the Sonic in America.
I rented one a few years ago in the US, its actually one of the cars I enjoyed to rent. Usually end up with a Nissan Sentra which IMO is the worst car ever to grace the planet!
Utterly poor credit! The same owner of said green car gives nothing to finance companies/banks has lowered his outgoings dramatically and probably doesn't give a shit what people think! Here in the UK some of the wealthiest people I know run around in old cars and old clothes! I run a 17 Yr old Ford mondeo 1.6 ltr petrol just passed another mot stands me around £300 and I've clocked up 25k in it so far! And will probably see it over 200k yet when people need to lend £1000 who do they come too? Social credit scoring is a mugs game! The only winners are those who score you!
Do you own it??😂
@@majorminor3367 Of course I do! Bought for cash around 15 months ago!
Matt, good luck selling this... I never heard of anybody looking for a Chevy/Daewoo Aveo... Might look a bit more interesting then a Corsa or a Punto, but much harder to sell...
Mate of mine had one, was a pain to get parts for. Low mileage and it wasn’t this much money 😂
Wonder Grip van resting up as usual 😂
added a dent removal van now to by the looks of it
@@teatimetel174 that’s a subtle advertisement for them.. wonder how much he paid Matt?!
I quite like the looks of the Aveo, I think the front looks quite "sporty", I like the headlights. The dash that looks like a motorcycle dash is kind of fun. I seem to remember they could some some quite eye-catching colours as well. This one looks pretty decent for 'just' silver, and the spec is pretty good.
Definitely goes in the "Interesting 1st Car" category, and so I'm glad it fell into Matt's tender mercies, it definitely seems like a car with (as Matt says) "A bit of life left in it yet".
If you like it so much I have good news there is a sorted one with a dealer in Stockport. Go get it bought.
Great video and content. Love hearing you say you overspent, but I think you did the right thing.
Evening Matt you will sell this, loads more people looking for cheap car nowadays instead of electric crap.
Talking of Chevys, we're waiting for you to come over to the states and tour around in some more interesting cars. Maybe later this year?
I’d love to
That would make for some great content, perhaps do a 2 week stint there and rent a few cars, would be fun to see your views on a hellcat 😂@HighPeakAutos
Good morning Matt, nice looking car for someone as a first car or a second family car. Thank you for taking the time to plead another video. Ged.
Sold in Australia as the Holden Barina and you still see 'em all over the place.
Allways on the look out for a sneaky partridge reference….keep them coming 👍
Always liked the look,of these, it’s a smart little car
Good content matt better than run of rhe mill stuff, cheers
We had a pair of 2013 Insignias and a 2011 Astra at work and we had a printed sheet of the fault codes on the wall, it was like a weekly game of bingo 😂
So much for German 'gründlichkeit'.
Yep, I have an Opel Karl, horrible car, and very often a code will come up on start up, then disappear a few Kms into the ride...piece of crap....I don't even bother looking the codes up anymore cos there's obviously nothing wrong apart from the fact it's Opel 😂
The guy from Wonder Grip as told the guy from Dents to park there for some free advertising lol before you know it the car park will be full of van from the local businesses wanting some free advertising ...great video as always thanks Matt
You need to get a yellow Arnold Clark sticker in the back, there’s bound to be someone who wants to drive round in it 👍
Funnest comment seen in long time They love them here too. In Ireland 🇮🇪
Good little car, very easy to drive, and from memory as i worked at a chevrolet dealer here in the uk, very reliable, rarely saw these go wrong. Cheap to run, cheap to service. But parts might be harder to find since chevrolet left the uk many years back..
Great little car! Cheers Matt
Tbh its a really good car for pizza deliveries and going around town. Fun fact Aveo is a in house brand of Muller GBMH( a big store with cosmetics and products in Europe). Glad you saved a little minter with low mileage.
Great video and work as always Matt! :D
"Don't I know how to pick 'em" ... "...£500 ...." which we all know won't happen, but is exactly why we all follow you and supportively chuckle.
You do care about what you sell and be as fair as you can .. so big respect .. keep it up!
Had one of these back in 2014 - blue LTZ with the diesel engine, and a touchscreen infotainment. It was TARDIS like in the back and I genuniely enjoyed it. Proper wee tank 🙂
Love this channel always a surprised with your purchases. Get a chevrolet spark next they look awful but maybe im wrong
We bought a cheap previous shape Aveo here in Spain after your thoughts on your Spark courtesy car. It’s been reliable and cheap to maintain for the last 2 years in a country where let’s just say maintenance and car care isn’t often the priority. Thanks for your insight!
“I’ve got a go pro stuck to my bonnet!” 🤣🤣🤣
Great video yet again Matt 👏👏👏
My brother still has a Sonic aka Aveo, now at 170K mi. I didn’t mind driving it around town, was kind of fun.
Great production. Someone is going to get a well sorted runabout.
Please do more q& a clips. 🙏 You're a star
In Canada and the United States, Chevrolet sold these as the Sonic. While not the most desirable of vehicles, they tend to be quite reliable, minus some water pump issues on the early model years.
Yes. And don't forget to change the timing belt at 100,000 kilometres. It's an interference engine, and you'll be looking for a used engine if the belt goes. Other than that, they are an excellent car.
These were known here in America and Canada as the Chevrolet Sonic and most of these cars were turbocharged from factory. And I don’t know about this “Aveo” but the Sonic were assembled here in Michigan (Orion Township)‼️ and that Oldsmobile you’re talking about Matt is the Alero.
I agree with you Matt its a good-looking vehicle and ideal 👍 first car
CONGRATULATIONS STOCKPORT COUNTY!! PROMOTED TO LEAGUE ONE👍👌
It's not a bad looking car. Certainly a rare one. Having watched your channel for some time, I don't think it's your worst buy.
Fingers crossed for a quick, full price sale.
piece of art that car. vincent would be proud
I've got an 09 aveo and honestly. My favourite car. Bought 3 years ago for £750 with 42000 miles on the clock. Never let me down. There's 3 in my entire area up here in Scotland. Fun fact, hold the unlock fot 5 seconds and all rhe windows will go down, lock button for windows up
Nice one Cyril (Matt)😊
You'd have to pay me to take that.
I had a similar small Chevrolet in Spain too funnily enough. GM must have had a deal for Spain because they were quite common and sold very well there, think I've only ever seen one in the UK. Great little run arounds, a tank of petrol lasted for ever and always easy to park. Brilliant budget run arounds.
These were badged the Holden Barina in Australia and they sold pretty well here.
I finally got to watch a fresh video.
I like your videos mate, keep it coming!
they are very competent small cars.. here in south america they were sold as Chevrolet Sonic (hatchback and sedan, LT/LTZ, MT6/AT6), only in 1.6 16v Ecotec with 110 hp guise.. problem is that only him has ever used this 1.6 engine around here, in a very short run.. they were sold only between 2013-2014 in a lineup full of other compact cars from GM, which narrowed it's market.
When we "sold up" in USA sold our car we decided to rent a Camaro SS for our last 10 days there because i had a Cirgi car of the Ss as a kid and had always dreamed of driving one........what a a mammoth heap if junk, it was a huge disappointment and the embodiment of why the American car industry has gone downe the crapper!😢😢
Sometimes the low milage bites you I'm afraid.. Had a Chevy Spark 1.0 from brand new 2011, 11 years later and with the gramd total of 62000 miles it was toast. Cracked head, friendly mechanics opinion 'short journeys and not getting car consistently up to temp is a no no, especially on those wee 1.0 engines'.
Always had a soft spot for these rare low rent superminis like the 2nd Proton Satria or MG3. Like the Aveo they seemed to be offering a sporty option for not a lot of dosh. I mean, those twin headlamps on the Aveo that look direct from Halfords circa 1999 are worth the asking price alone.
You crack me up with the Partridge isms....Action man bow tie 😂
Great video not a bad car for a comuter car .. probably cheap ro insure and tax would imagine the mpg woukd be good on the motorway.. different tp the corsa with a ok interior
Alright lads. Love the content! Just wondering, when you refer to Jimmy the magician, who is it? Need some body work doing and it's always good to use someone highly recommended. Many thanks
Hi Matt well estimated £ 1000 for repair soon as you started the car up . Chevy translated means heavy in your pocket . Good video and content .
I find it funny to hear that it's a rare car. These are everywhere here in Canada!
The Aveo was sold in the US from 2004-2020.
2004-2011 as the Aveo,
2012-2020 as the Sonic.
I remember! The Sonic name was a marketing thing made to let Americans think that it was a ''cool, hip'' European car. Of course it wasn't, it was only a newer Aveo! Nobody got fooled!
they were popular in Australia as the Holden Barina but largely because that nameplate was such an institution, from 2005 to 2018 it was those rebadged Daewoo models, before that from 1994 to 2005 it was a rebadged European Corsa, and originally from 1985 to 1994 it was a rebadged Suzuki Swift, so it's been many different cars but always a staple here
These are Holden Barinas in Australia. Not the best car but I guess it is good for shopping trolley duties
I got those De Agostini magazine vibes. Where you get a part each month. Then when you're done youve bought a 1 to 1 replica of a Vauxhall Belmont.
And if you'd bought the real thing it would have been half the price.
Like you said it's more interesting looking than a corsa,punt, etc, and low miles.
Now I have American Pie stuck on replay in my head - it’s a good song 🇺🇸 🥧 🎶
Front styling / lights is fierce - like a Dodge Charger.
When you said for some reason your left hand is stronger It just cracked me 🤣🤣 i love your videos
They were sold in Australia as a Holden Barina , basically a rebadged Daewoo.
I'm curious why your left hand is stronger than your right hand 😂😂 Great video as always, Matt. Have a great weekend
It’s a mystery
Chevy Sonic here in the US, and actually built in the US in Lake Orion, MI. Sadly no longer available, but it was a decent car.
Absolute bargain of a car! And a retro car tax disc thrown in too ❤😂
Action man bow tie. You love partridge 😊
We bought a Matiz new for £5500 many years ago. Had it for 11yrs, did all the school runs and both kids learnt to drive in it. Sold it with 100000k on the clock. Never needed anything except wear and tear items. Brilliant in the back lanes of Devon.
You wont have seen rarer than what i did at my local petrol station yesterday...a 1952 Citroen 2CV van, absolutely mint it was, didnt think they did a van.
The ten year old tax disc in the window should ensure you get the asking price Matt. Looks almost as good as new now.
This is the USA chav / thav. Tenement housed Vauxhall Corsa. They are all over the shop in south west Atlanta.
This video sums up the way car prices have gone in the last 3 years. I looked at these before covid for my son as they were very cheap. I had a Chevy Captiva that had been great. Son's response: "what is it, can't I just have a Corsa". So a Corsa he got. Fast forward 4 years and the Captiva went. Chevy pulling out of UK and lack of spare parts made it a pain to live with. Aveos are now the same price for the same car 4 yrs ago?? Sadly my son would still make the same comment😁
Matt be getting an English suntan with all this good weather today 😂.
I once took the key out of the ignition while rolling in to my parents drive at midnight. CRASH. fence gone. Very dangerous to do that when the steering lock kicks in
nice video
it's a corsa if you look closer. not a daewoo. a corsa is a daewoo, an astra is a daewoo, it's a cruze with the z link with the same engines... i mean was, now it's stelantis, but you get the point.
Matt!, when ya said 'it smells grubby' 😂i thought...THOSE POOR GUYS AT THE VALETING PLACE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉
Great save sale soon 😊
From general motors just like Vauxhall used to be. No wonder it has loads of faults lights and codes flashing😅. I scrapped my old corsa when the engine management went bust and left me permanently in a very weak and slow limp home mode.
Matt, Please do a WONDERGRIP walkaround.
There are quite a few of them here in Canada under the name Chevy Sonic.
They sold quite well round here in Worcester, I see loads
Well I was surprised how good that little car looked I would have been happy with that for a first car 👍
I agree with the low mileage comments, not always a good thing. I bought a 3 year old Vauxhall Omega V6 back in the day. 120,000 miles, a service history like a phone book and owned by a major bank. Brand new inside and ticked like a Swiss watch. Other than a camshaft sensor, it was flawless and was a real hoot to drive. Don't forget that the Australians race their version of the Omega. Was one of my better purchases.
don't the Australian version have a 4ltr V8 under the bonnet
My Dad bought one a while ago. Cheap, pretty solid/well built, and reliable. Far better than a lot of other cars TBF.
The Ecotec engines have a problem with water seeping through the rubber seals corroding the coils (causing misfires). Source: I've owned a Corsa.
This made a lovely car when it was cleaned and made right mechanically.
After all the money invested in it, I hope it sells for your asking price Matt❤.
I think we've come along far enough that you should start importing Mercs from Bulgaria
With the engine in limp mode you could have refrained yourself in using the Aircon. These small engines feel anyway when Aircon is on even when they run ok.
17:17 and then the steering wheel lock kicked in 💀
Brit who lives in the US here. I've never heard anyone say "cha-siss" in the nearly 15 years I've lived here. I think you might be thinking of the difference between the soft "ch" and hard(er) "ch" that some people use in the UK. I generally here "cha-see" (with a "ch" pronounced like in the word "cheese") here in the US. I recall that sometimes in the UK people would go for the softer "ch" as in "sha-see" (with a "ch" closer to the word "chef"). Anyway, dialects are a thing, nothing is right or wrong, variation is kind of the beauty of language, at least to me!
I've been keeping my eye on these cars, a better spec corsa with low tax for less money
they sold a few thousand of these in south africa , sedans and hatches. not bad quality , fairly light on fuel. less likely to be stolen than a polo or fiesta
You make me chuckle Matt, driving the car with could possibly konk out and you’re more worried about how grubby the interior is 🤣
Hope you get you’re £1000 more deserve it for your time ❤ but would of gone down hill fast without your intervention 😮
These are sold as the Sonic in the US.
Chevy also sold a model known as the Aveo at the same time but it was cheaper.
The Sonic was the darling of rental fleets and sold to a lot of first-time buyers and in several model years approached 100,000 units sold.
It was available with both turbocharged and normally aspirated engines, both engines have the same horsepower but the turbocharged variant had more torque, as well as 3 and 5-door hatchbacks or a four-door sedan and aside from a few issues with water pumps in early model years, were known to be quite reliable and durable.
This could go in your interesting cars list 2nd album? I know you kept the tax disc for a reason...:)
Hi there, Don't know if you'll see this but I need some alloys getting refurbed and some body work. I live quite close to Stockport. Was wondering if you could tell me who you go to for these tasks. Thank you!
My other car, my 2007 Hyundai Amica CDX Auto Mk2 has still only done 14,400 from new but don't let the low milage fool you. It has despite it's low milage been a bit problematic, mainly the brakes. Trouble is it often sits around on the drive gathering dust and rust. As it has tiny wheels everything is so close to the ground so even when stationary heavy rain will bounce back in to the gubbins. This is usually the brakes and more annoyingly the castle rings and ABS sensors. Every MOT it's the same thing with rusted ABS components and a shattered ABS castle ring (the bit that looks like crenellations). I think you do have to use the car to a certain extent to keep it going or it just seizes up (a bit like me). It's worth tuppence and yes... I massively overspend at every MOT!
