Can you buy a fun, sports car for ÂŁ1500? Well, we tried - and to see who chose the best car, we drove 700 miles, tested them for faults, took them on track and even got a bit stuck.
We decided on a maximum budget of ÂŁ1500 for each car and anything left over could be spent on âupgradesâ along the way. I hate to sound smug, but Iâve definitely picked the quickest car, so letâs see what we bought.
Now youâve seen the cars, letâs look at where weâre going. Weâll start out at the office, fill up with fuel along the way and then make our way to a retail park just outside Manchester to buy our mods. From there weâll head up into the stunning Lake District, stop for lunch and then make the final stretch up to Knockhill. 374 miles in total.
đ° Want to buy one of these three cars? (We'll do you a deal) Drop us an email. cars@driver61.com

As a huge 'Car Throttle' and old school 'Top Gear' fan... I'm super excited to see you guys dip a toe into this kind of content; feel free to take a full dive in!
would've loved to see overtakes counted while they were in pit lane.
They were, that's why Callum lost!
@@OVERDRIVE.studios Keep at it man, the mix between extremely informative engineering videos that actually go deep on the math, physics, etc. and these fun series where you fool around is some of the best car content on CZcams right now.
I thought this was a Car Throttle video and was confused when the hosts were different.
@@Thohean its car throttle, but better :P
They are slowly turning into Top Gear and I love it
Thats why I subscribed lol
And weâre here for it. Someone must fill the void, haha
Im gonna watch every single damn episode
I bloody hope not!
Has to be the most profitable route and Iâm hear for it
Scott choosing comfort over performance, because he knows he's gonna kill it on track regardless is a big brain move. Great, fun video
You are so damn right
well jaguar does have a history of being in racing. so its no surprise a business man muscle sedan can put up a fight against 2 germans(mercedes and audi)
Seems to be a kind of thing James May would've done...
It's already fast enough, so the only thing left is to make it comfortable...
Seeing that big Jag get hustled around a circuit by an experienced driver was a load of fun. Props to Will for catching on and absolutely sending it in the SLK; looked like he was having a blast!
Hey itâs 100PercentJake! In the UK! You should all check out his channel. Fun & mayhem in Kansas.
the big jaaaag was fast
As an American. I really do appreciate you guys putting up the conversions. I know itâs a pain. So thank you.
As a European, still sad they put mpg and stuff like that for fuel consumption instead of L/100km but I'll get over it lol. At least converting USD into Euro is easy right now lmao
Hello noob â€ïž send me some lobster rolls
Fact
@@SwainixFPV What about KM/L?
@@gabrielv.4358 I haven't heard anyone use it, but maybe it's used in parts of Europe I haven't been to I guess
This could have been 4 20-minute episodes and I still would have watched every single one. Love it guys, keep it up!
Epic!! Good thing there's enough room on YT for you guys, Car Trek, and Car Throttle!! The more car challenges the better! Just put ÂŁs in the thumbnail now đ
So true, I hate it when they try and appeal to their American viewers, cause now we have to convert dollars into pounds!
And Mighty Car Mods, and Bad Obsession Motorsport, and Donut Media, and Gears & Gasoline, and Throttle House. Want me to go on?
Chill out on the exclamation marks...
yea it's a uk show it should default to ÂŁ instead of pandering
The biggest surprise is seeing all of these cars survive this- seeing that Jag bouncing and sliding around the track made my day!
Jeremy, James and Hammond Top gear's legendary status gets cemented everyday. Nice work guys.
Top Gear 2.0?
Love it!!
That XJ8 averaging 27.9MPG is absolutely incredible for its age. Love it. Some proper engine maintenance would bring that right up
Lol?15-18L per 100km is really nothing awesome from 4.0L V8.
And dont forgott its huuuugggee car.
@@joe125ful the us and uk have differently sized gallons, 28 uk mpg is about 10L/100km which is respectable enough given the size imo
@@joe125ful my 97 crown Victoria averages 15 mpg and it goes down to 4 when I step on itđ
@@fxckrio Why the hell just not use L/ km way easy to understand:)
Yeah 10 L/10Km is lowest number full gas is like 14-15L and same for in town.
@@joe125ful idk honestly countries that still use imperial confuse the shit out of me
Scott is definitely Top Gear host level. Heâs got it all! And That outfit đ
New series idea: get Will a cheap track car plus lessons from Scott, and let's watch him fly
Or build their own trackday car
I have a feeling that I'm going to watch this many, many times. Epic fun lads!
This is outstanding. I feel like that food critic in Ratatouille being transported back in time.
The chemistry between you three is fantastic.
If you continue to make content like this, you will get millions of subscribers. Carry on guys đ
Loved this Top Gear-esque video from the good old days. Can't wait for more.
Been a huge fan of Scott's content for years, glad to see what it's growing into. I'm a sucker for old school circuits too, would love to see you guys keep that motorsport flavour in future videos.
The TT has aged really well.
Some really strong Old Top Gear vibes, but loved seeing the chemistry between you three! That JJJaaaggg needs some proper setup and it'll devour all, so long as Scott is driving...
I feel like I've found my home when I'm watching these types of videos from you guys. I didn't enjoy a video like this in a while so thank you Driven Media!
Great video ! đ I like the fact there is humor without ruining the otherâs car. đ The mood of the video is great. This kind of content reminds us the fun that can be had, without breaking the bank. Keep doing what youâre doing. đ Take care.
This is giving me classic Top Gear vibes... AND I LOVE IT
WE WANT MORE!!!
Great vid, loved seeing the jag bounce around, no replacement for displacement, and a racing driver behind the wheel đȘ. Great vid
Great stuff đ Hope there are some more "old Top Gear" challenges coming, since they are the best!
OMG was this good, obviously needles to say we want more. Lots of Top Gear comparisons, but you do you and 3 friends having fun is all you need, Hope we get more adventures from you.
Your enthusiasm really makes this style of episode awesome. Keep at it!
Please more of this. Could even have been a two parter. Amazing work guys.
I love this format. It definitely feels like the good old days of top gear. Please do more of this.
Great video, really enjoyed how well integrated the sponsor was too
18:26 Never a truer word spoken đđ»
"It doesn't matter what you drive. It's about driving the car close to it's limit and not how fast you are going"
After shopping for something tasty like a BM 330 I've finally realised I just want something cheap and fun to feeling around.
Decided on either an MX5 or a mk3 MR2
I missed this, thank you for creating a top gear-esk episode of buying some car and driving with it, love it!
Good stuff! Lots of genuine fun and enough jokes without going over the top.
You would assume just by seeing these three cars in the beginning, that they were a bit ambitious but rubbish. But now after this video, I'm more inclined to get myself my own car to use on track !
Just discovered you guys and have been going on a binge the past few hours. Great content lads, keep up the amazing work!
I am absolutely loving the content you guys have been putting out lately. An educational + a fun channel is absolutely perfect
Interested in the lap times with the same driver. TT should be quickest by far
The reason I liked Top Gear USA was because of Taner Faust a professional driver, and I'm very excited for this series because of Scott. It gives a different vibe from Car Trek or throttle house challenges.
This channel has become what was the best of 2000s Top Gear and it's so bloody welcome!
Loved the video, it was like i was on the journey with you, keep the series alive đ„đ„đ„
This was great! I was a bit worried by the low production quality at first, but it was well edited, the order of events flowed well and the chemistry was great!
Next test. Which sports car under 1500 quid is the best for dogging?
Top gear vibes and im LOVING it!!!! keep going Scott!
This is the next grand tour. The top gear.
This is the best of both series. These personalities, oh I'm in tears. Thank you for reminding me of the best car show. You've got what it takes to shift it a gear higher, to go on an even grander tour.
18:35 noted đđ»
Absolutely loving the top gear style episode!
I feel like the Audi was the most Hammond choice, the Mercedes was the most James May choice, and the Jag was the most Clarkson choice because V8 rear wheel drive
Or the SLK is Clarkson and the Jag is May because captain slow with the spongiest suspension and heaviest car.
i would say merc was a jezza car and the jag is a may car for sure
@@dainbramage3558 yeah I was going back and forth on the jag because it's slow but also is a big v8
The Audi definitely wouldn't be Hammond's choice.. He's been very vocal about how much he hates TTs.
@@shona5512 ah interesting
So maybe it would be
Clarkson - Audi
Hammond - Mercedes
May - Jaguar
Loved this! We need more of these challenges! đ
I love the old top gear vibes im getting from this. Keep up the great work!
This channel has VERY quickly become one of my favorites. Great content yâall, love from the States
This brings back so much good memory from the top gear, please keep on making videos like this, the channel has huge potential to be a big thing
This was such a great watch and the result in the end really tied in how much fun this video ended up being. Huge Top Gear vibes and loved every second of it.
This is officially my favorite car CZcams channel. Loving the videos guys!
$146 for 16.1 gallons... wow. I will not complain about fuel prices in the US any longer...
Honestly, after seeing UK and EU pricing, no person from the States really should
To be fair, those fuel stations were on the motorway so theyâre a bit more expensive than the average price. However, the price is ridiculous even at the âcheapestâ petrol stations at the moment!
â@@heythereitsissy Thats crazy
Please more of this instead of "upgrading x untill i am faster", the chaotic format of 3 guys driving some cheap cars is so entertaining!!
Amazing videos from you on this channel and on Driver61.
The Top Gear vibes are strong with you, keep up the great workđ
I need to be shopping for cars in the UK.. you can't buy anything half as good as these cars in the US for $1800!
Right?? There's no way you could get a Mk1 TT 225hp for less than $5-6k
Yeah these prices didn't make any sense to me
Did you see the rust on them.... Also did you see our fuel prices?! Would rather have cheaper fuel and slightly more expensive cars
@@russelltaylor1500 I would be very surprised if you could get one that even runs for $4000 here. Your fuel prices are awful though.
@@ryanviertel7059 I'm surprised it is that expensive over your side of the pond to be fair. but higher wages must contribute I suppose
A lot of CZcamsrs do the classic top gear challenges nowadays. Not everyone manages to make it fun however, but you guys sure did! Would definitely like to see more videos like this! Just make sure you keep it genuine and not the fake, badly acted, scripted stuff they do in the US.
Man this video was awesome, love how in the end you focused on the fun instead of picking at each other, this video was just so chill to watch. Thank you.
10:19 that's Clarkson energy right there
seeing the price for gas was eye opening. I am here in texas, where my local gas is about $4.50 per gallon (.986 pounds/litre if my calculation is right), so seeing you pay $146 on gas was quite surprising. For reference, 15.5 gallons (58.674 litres) of 93 octane costs me about $65 (53.96 pounds).
where is the subaru update
That's next weeks episode!
More of this please! Budget car challenges are ALWAYS a win!
Love this style of content, keep making these
Did you clear the codes before doing that part. Could have had someone unplug some sensors years ago and it'll show a fault for it even though they're plugged in đ€ grey area in the rules right therrrr
Congrats guys - enjoyable to watch and seems you were enjoying yourselves too. All three can talk while driving (it's harder than many people think) - especially an a track full of other (faster) cars. Definitely make more similar videos.
Really cracking content lads. The camera work has a long way to go and the editing could be sharper and length cut down a bit but those are relatively minor things compared with the spirit, the banter, the raw vibe of the thing, which you have absolutely nailed and it's great.
The closest/ most authentic Top Gear feeling. Good job guys. Keep doing what you're doing đđŒ
Them jaguars are deceptively fast. I have an old XJ myself and I remember leaving many a boy racer in the dust. đ€Ł
Really enjoyed this guys great stuff! Keep it up
it's like we're watching driven media slowly becoming top gear 2
i love it
I think you boys know what you have to do, be the next Top Gear show, like the old Scott no punching producers đđ this took me back and I loved it
This may be an old recipe, but it was very well executed. Great job guys - more content like this will go down well.
Those Jags are bloody brilliant! I took a 4.0 around the Nurburgring back in 2018 a number of times, absolute hoot! Cruising at 50-60mph they will do over 40mpg as it is hardly ticking over, genuinely great cars!
Stumbled upon your channel a couple days ago and boy am I glad I did. Love it! Reminds of my favorite top gear episodes. I bet by the end of this year you'll be nearing 1 million subscribers!
Found completely by accident and subscribed. Totally loved every minute of this, guys! Thank you đđ»
Guys, this needs to be longer! This was hilarious to watch
Epic vĂdeo, I love it... Great vibes with you having fun, it was amazing. Please do more videos with budget cars
This is really reminiscent of old Top Gear. Love this format boys, keep it up.
This was a fun video! Yes please more of this. I also appreciate you converting the numbers for your American viewers for mpg and gallons, cost etc.
This is great stuff! You are putting out consistently awesome content
This group has a great chemistry.
Really enjoying all the content! Keep up the good work!
Loved the banter in this one!
Please more video like this, I enjoyed every second of this video :)
Just discovered you guys and I love the channel! Keep up the good content!
Glad you enjoyed yourselves chaps, it was fun to watch.
This was so much fun to watch. Great stuff guys!
This whole channel is like Top Gear + Car Throttle + Donut Media + Tavarish CarTrek series and I love every second of it.
Loved it boys, very fun format. Iâd love to see these cars driven more.
Great video guys! I must admit the 22 minutes looked a bit long, but at the end I felt it could have been longer. Enjoyed every minute.
Really great video guys, loving the content you put out!
Glad the algorithm recommended you guys to me today - also, that Jag is an absolute hero. Sounded fantastic around the track too
One of the most entertaining car videos, maybe even videos in general, I've ever watched on CZcams . Keep going lads.
11:03 - "Funny, I've got a beetle in my way as well," as he films the TT ahahhaa
Proof positive the driver makes a big difference in the performance, Scott sitting there keeping up w/ track prepped cars in that massive Jag.
I've only watched 3 videos, but you guys are great at this. Keep it up.
Definitely an episode with a hint of Top Gear in it... Love it!
More more more!
Most underrated car channel.! Love the content boys.!
I love "road trip challenges "
