- SLOW Cars Driven HARD on the NÜRBURGRING! Best of Slow Cars Driving Fast on the Nordschleife.
It's not about the car, it's about who's behind the steering wheel! Some "slow" cars on the Nordschleife are actually driven faster than expensive supercars or exotic cars during Touristenfahrten!

These are much more fun to watch than supercars
For me there’s NOTHING like the visual appeal of an over-financed, under-brained, knob totaling his ego.
@@RedEye19 Well, that is funny too
Every car driven on the edge is fun to watch
Not only to watch but drive too
I'd argue that they're just as fun to drive as well
Driving a slow car fast means that you're having fun for a much longer duration, which is something that i'd always prefer
Me too. 😊
Much more fun to be on a ragged edge when driving a slow car than to drive a quick car and not get the most out of it
We all love fun here!
*Proceed to run on foot 1 lap on Nurburgring*
And shows that you are a better driver
The Opel Omega GSi isn't a slow car, it's a fast tank
Looks more like a omega 3000 or omega Evo 500
It's badged as a 24V, equivalent to the Carlton GSI in the UK.
The condition looks amazing, compliments to the owner.
@@xX_Kyl-E_Xx as i can see it it's a 3000 24V because the rear wheel arches are straight. the EVO 500 had, similar to the Lotus Omega, round Arches. also the EVO 500 had a bigger spolier on the trunk lid.
@@CommodoreCaravan1981 totally agree, I think that it is an Omega 3000 ❤
Pause around 1:35 then you'll see the tell-tale white '3000' sticker under the Omega badge and left of the '24V' one. So it's a late-model 3000 as they got the 24V-Upgrade around 1990, I think. But yeah, that's not a slow car. (Wouldn't call it a tank, though. ~1350ish kg isn't that bad for a sedan)
I have said it so many times, one of the greatest automotive pleasures one can get is driving a slow car hard. We all want and some of us have these amazing fast cars, I think I had more fun redline shifting and tripod cornering my first car, a 107 HP 1987 Dodge Daytona than almost any car since.
100% True! I have a blast in my little 60HP Fiat Panda everytime i take it through some twisty backroads here in Switzerland.
@@deinemudda6617 Better to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow!
I've been driving a mk2 golf gti 8v from 1989 the last 3 months and its always a blast to drive!!
I remember my 1.3 Mk2? facelift Polo being tremendous fun everywhere and even better since it only cost me £50 and had super skinny tyres on it which made handling tricky. Lots of body roll! Great fun though
Miata
The moment I saw that Twingo and Yaris overtaking that Porsche, I knew this was gonna be good.
he didnt have a german licence plate that expains alot
The sideways Multipla was also a highlight
I made me laugh out loud
Lada built Niva to do a lot of things but a hot lap on the Nurburgring probably wasn’t one of them 😂
Yet it wasn't that bad😅
well even if they didnt make them for that purpose, which i doubt. I want one now.
my headcanon is that lada built the niva for the sole purpose of hotlapping the nurburgring.
people took the piss out my riva...so i gave it a twin webber conversion...racing cams..sports flilter.. dropped from 0-60 in 15 secconds to 9.2 not bad for 1989
I wouldn't have done it too fast for me lol
Niva was a first car to start a class of SUV or crossover by the way. First 4x4, high clearance, lightweight and no frame. I still like the look, the should make modern re-edition like new Bronko or smth
Those Volvos 740, 940 and 240 really give an example of what is a long lasting car . Those are truly Supercars!
My brother had a 240. The previous owner totaled two cars with it and got away with torn rubber on the front bumper. The car was a tank. Sluggish engine,4 speed with overdrive button on the shifter, awful suspension but the car is indestructible .
@@TheCerovec if an old volvo is flying into a lamppost, it's the lammpost's problem.
@@zloychechen5150 heh, my dad took out a lamppost on the parkinglot at his old job with his 940, no damage at all to the car (lamppost was probably a bit loose)
When he left, they got him a wooden board with a slot and a photo cutout of a 940, and in front of it on the wooden board one of those small solar garden lamps on a post that looked a bit like a lamppost. You could even push over the lamppost as it was connected with a rubber band.
In Germany WE call them Diesellok
Yes, they can practically lap everybody if pushed.
Extra credit to the bloke in the Lada Niva!
@@DJValor311 You can see the strain of that added weight on the front brakes, though.
Made it better than the amarok
@@suspeh Yes, i think if you don´t have ESP it can´t mess with your line 🙂
Solid Russian build quality!
UK registered 2021 too which is weird as they haven't been sold in the UK for years and years and are no longer made in right hand drive either.
a british registered Lada Niva on the nurburgring? now that is unexpected
Maybe, but VAZ vehicles are sold all across the globe (except for North America?) and there's lots of Russians living/born in the UK (especially in London, as much as I've heard/read) so it's not really unusual, plus anyone and everyone can come and drive their vehicles on this track.
@@MDDeGrande1994 There was a company importing them to order from the factory for the UK market - if you didn't mind a left hooker.
It was on a 71 plate, so Registered sept 2021 or after
In Armenia, Niva races against BMW and Mercedes and feels good😂
@@MDDeGrande1994 It's unusual in the fact Lada have probably sold a handful of new Nivas in the UK, being only lhd. Yes people live and travel, but you can't deny it IS unusual to see a UK registered Niva going round the Ring. I've seen most makes and models go round but never a Niva.
The engineers designing it were probably born because of hot German laps
That red Xsara vts isn't that slow, if I remember correctly it does have 167hp, it's a great car
You have good taste in music as well as knowledge of cars sir. I salute you.
Absolutely, quite a few of these weren't 'slow' when new. It's evolution.
Also it rises up a bit when you turn it on, I think.
That also happened with some older Citroens but I'm unsure, still pretty cool.
That's right! I got the same engine in my 2 peugeot 306 GTI, but with 6 gears. The Xsara VTS had only 5
I have a lucifer red Phase 2 and a blue phase 1, but phase 1 is faster, cause 70kg less stock weight
Yes, Saxo is fast car and better, lot of fun to drive because Croissant cars are made for French twisty roads 👍
That Volvo wagon wasn’t slow, it was smoking the tire up the hill 👍
Weight transfer.
That's because it could need some LSD. It runs an open differential, so of course it will do wheelspin when turning and accelerating hard.
@@StaelTek yeah, but it's doing this at quite a high speed.
@@StaelTek ... and of course you doing this with your
@@boostedscrapyard I can taste your saltiness in my popcorn. Keep going 🍿
1:43 the Lada Niva was impressive
Almost brand new 2021 registration!
Yes
@@robotronuk we are calling it "tested by time".
UK numberplate too, didn't even know they were sold in the UK
@@robotronuk It could only be the date of import and built much older.
You just know that half of these are the 'family car', and dad has just decided to have a quick lap to give it the beans on the way home from the school run. Respect!
Did anyone noticed that there's the same license plate for two times? It's GEL NR 8
First in a Toyota Yaris at 3:17 and later on a Renault Twingo at 05:45!
Option 1: they just swapped it.
Option 2: he crashed the Yaris and came back with the Twingo later that year. :D
it's on the yaris in the first clip too, when they are both together. the twingo has a sticker on the windshield in its second clip that isn't in the first clip, too. I suppose both are owned by the same person/company, but even so I don't think you're supposed to just swap numberplates between your vehicles as you please...
@@isthatrubble Yeah, illegal where I am
Omega 3000 24V (with wheels from Lotus Omega) is measured for 0-100 6.95 s, Top speed 246.
One of the fastest, or the fastest, of the regular cars.
I had a white one. Great car.
Once encountered an Omega Lotus back in 2000, he blew away my CRX VTEC 🤣
not exactly slow - lol
@@ReolSPro mine had 270bhp. But 210bhp standard is pretty decent in the early 90s.
The Omega 300 24v and the Lotus versions are totally different animals.
When the Multipla was developed, they set out to make it handle as well as a Bravo HGT. The Multipla has a very wide track, and it handles much better than most would believe. The chassis laughs at the 100-ish horsepower the engine makes.
That's why it deserves the gt3 edition in assetto corse mod
@@fahmiperwira Wait for the 1000tipla the youtubers Vilebrequin are making to be finished
What an unusual amount of Citroëns in this video, of several different kinds even. Saxo, Xsara, Evasion, AX and the most unusual and rarest of all of them: the BX! What a sight! Thanks for posting! Although that Opel Corsa A actually was pretty quick :-).
Couldn´t agree more! I own a BX GTI as well in this exact color and was totally surprised!
They´ve sold 230.000 units in Germany alltogether and there are less than 800 left according to the KBA and maybe 100 are GTI´s.
I guess a lot more Ferrari Enzo´s have been on the Nordschleife, than BX´s:)
That BX driver probably had the most comfortable ride around the Ring that day.
I was happy for the BX 😃
C2 vts
The Xsara VTS has every right to be on the Ring. Not a slow car at all
2:13 Volvo 940 Turbo Wagon
3:46 Volvo 240 Wagon
5:59 Volvo 740 Turbo Wagon
How can you tell em apart
@@spookywind4133 Easy. No problem. A 740 or 760 is harder or a 940 and 960 but even there it can be easy to see what it is if you just got a few sec.
@@spookywind4133 940's have a relatively flat bonnet/hood and big headlights (TV screens), the 740 has a slightly shallower nose but has a more pronounced bonnet bulge/ridge.
240's as opposed to the 7 and 900's actually have the odd soft radius/curve to body panels rather than being designed by a ruler.
@@eyesodd thanks I’ve been thinking about buying a 240 but I had no idea what all the different numbers meant
@@spookywind4133 Both good cars, I currently own a 240 saloon and a 940 turbo wagon. Easy to get them up to around 200bhp just with a cheap boost controller.
8:16 that's a sleeper for sure
4:42 That Citroen is badass
Eargazem
did he just drift a fwd car?
@@C9LD as a seville owner, it is possible to power slide but hitting actual drifts are extremely challenging and can only really be done in short bursts, it's weird asf but possible.
@@C9LDpower sliding. using the handbrake lock the rear wheel car will slide for little bit.
@@MagikSpellzz I own a 99 civic (my first car) and a 2014 ford fusion. Despite being an automatic, I slide my ford all the time (rwd), But my civic just wants to turn.😭
Edit: they're both stock
Sierra, Omega A, Vectra A 💪
Great cars 👍
Goes to show that you don't need a fast or expensive car to have fun.
By the way, Opel Omegas are still very popular amongst brazilian drift and race drivers.
3:45 he didn’t even brake, brave man
I believe that's the guy that did a sub-10 bridge to gantry challenge with that bonestock Citroen AX, it looks like the same car. His onboards are on CZcams.
He knew that braking wouldnt help unless he was gonna come to a stop!
I will admit that I do dream of taking a Ford F450 and driving on something like the Nurburgring. There are few things stranger than seeing a heavy duty pickup be driven fast and hard.
you must've watched Ken Block's F450 dually drift huh? 😎🤘
@@piuthemagicman No but now I know what I am going to be watching next.
Fucking incredible video, team O’Neil also did an f450 “will it rally”. confirm it will rally but probably only once
They're pretty fast because of the power and the weight provides a lot of grip. The 6.0 F350s drive like they want to do 90mph at all times and can do it effortlessly except tight turns. It would probably be a quick lap if driven in the same style as a long wheelbase AWD car or early porsche
Thumbs up for the red 90's Opel Omega lol
Wow that Citroen at 3:31 is doing well. Brought back memories of a guy I knew in my teens who had one and somehow wired in a standard house speaker for his stereo so it'd be bouncing round his boot and sliding around. He used to have his seat so far back because he was 6ft. Sadly he hung himself in the woods near his house, very sad. Good memories of him though, he was a funny guy.
What I love is the "A" stickers meaning he is a young licence, but still send his little saxo :D
I’m sorry to hear that
@@da_bosslegend9020 Yes he was a lovely chap. A real shame. I remember him fondly.
Rest in peace to him
A car can take a turn.
A story can take a turn.
A life can take a turn.
04:00 Classic Ford sagging from the rear axle when people sit there. Miss the old days :D
6:15 lmao
I just love that Sierra and the Omega at the begining!
Love it. An AX going round on four pram wheels, several plumber's vans gunning it to get to burst pipes, a Sierra that's rammed full of passengers, a Micra that's only got five more minutes to get the pizza delivered or it'll be a freebie, and some Volvo estates presumably full of wardrobes and chests of drawers! 😎
7:08 When a customer sets a Same Day Delivery and it's already 11:55PM.
It's more amusing to drive a slow car fast than to drive a fast car slow.
this is one of my life mottos, along with: "the important thing is not to accelerate, the important thing is not to brake!"
The guy in the Xsara got a youtube channel too. Drives really good.
Xsara owner did a lap with Misha, you can see it
@@mrfrancy0154 I know I saw it before this
The guy at 1:45 really knows his truck. How much psi to keep the tires at to take advantage of the body roll. Left looked lower than right on the turn, but evened out once out the turn
thats an SUV i believe
@@roodlaargo "it's an suv 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓"
@@Ac3Mustang because it is? u mad that u didn't know that? i was just correcting you
@@roodlaargo the same damn thing.
@@Ac3Mustang no its not🤣 learn car body shapes bro
As a Russian i have massive respect for the guy that took his Niva to the Nürburgring
...why?
@@JCBOiii maybe because Lada is Russian? and Niva isn't exactly something you'd bring to a track?
@@purplewastaken exactly
i would love to do that once i get a Lada!
@@roodlaargo it would be fun on a RWD 2107 maybe tuned or on a kalina sport
2:55 the front wheel camber on that renault van!
A cheaper car at it's limits is way more fun than it should be.
Nothing but respect and love for those Guys ❤👏🏻
8:04 Legendary 😂😂💥
The crowd ROARS!!!!
Das video hat mir sehr gut gefallen,
in manchen Ecken hatten die kleinen voll die Nase vorn.
Da sieht man was möglich ist wenn man gut fahren kann.
Gerne mehr von so zeug!
3:09 hahaahhaha They are so proud of the drift 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
you can’t imagine how proud I was especially doing it on this corner.
the same evening on our way back to france my friend logged on youtube and we saw ourselves in the video this was amazing
3:00 that was brilliant, I love how hyped they were too!
2:05, that VW Amarok is on dealer plates lol
Proefritje?
Get the most out of whatever car you have 👍♥️
My neighbour, a pro racing driver once challenged me "Let's go to a track. We swap cars, I drive your GM, you drive my sports car. And I'll still beat you!"
The average household car is exceeding the limits of most household drivers anyway.
I did say I trusted him on that 😅
Cool! What's your neighbour's name? What car and racing serie does he race in? I'm a motorsport enthusiast who wants to get involved in motorsport to become a driver/rider so I'd like to look him up!
Love this, I love how the camera avoids all the actual super cars to focus on the lemons
I didn't know I needed this in my life. Most excellent.
Everytime I see a SUV or Pickup on the Nordschleife, I know the electronics working to keep this things on the road are like: "OMG, what is the driver doing!? Good Lord, we can´t handle this, make it end!"
Except for the Niva. That thing has not much electronics and yet it handled that corner super fine. 😀
Lada built the Niva to do a lot of things, but a hot lap on the Nuremberg ring probably wasn't one of them.
Its just top slow to slide off the Track. 😄
I like nivas, tho.^^
driver skill tops all
Years ago I took a mid 90s skoda felicia wagon with over 300,000 kilometers to the nurburgring. There was light rain and I got sideways, the spectators went wild!
Something so much more interesting and fun about lower powered cars being driven hard. This is awesome 😎 .
Fiat Multiplas actually handle damned well, wide track and a semi space frame body shell… Half tempted to get one and sleeper it by swapping the 1.9jtd for the 2.4jtd and changing all the heavy windows out for plexis to drop the centre of gravity a bit.
Good idea
There's a guy in Portugal modding 2.4JTDs, throwing them into Fiat Bravos and getting a little bit over 300hp out of them, 300hp in a Multipla wouldn't be as fast, but I'll admit it would be a cool thing to see.
2:47 Ahh, Renault Kangoo... A stiffer rear end can not be found, and the Megane is not much better. I had the same kind of snap oversteer with one at work, thankfully on a gravel road where I could save it into the next corner. I never told the bosses for some reason.
Bro cut the corner 💀
My favourite compilation so far!
Here in Brazil, the Opel Omega, it's called Chevrolet Omega, it came out here with a Chevy 250 engine, inline 6!!
Thats because during a long time Opel was just the european filiale of chevrolet.
At 2:28 that old Nissan Micra is the stuff of nightmares for all the BMW boys that think they can drive. That thing looks like some old shitbox but if you look closely, it has barely any body roll and a shitton of mechanical grip. I love it.
0:55 Miata!😍
I also liked how that Cuore lifted its leg.
As an owner of 115hp 2001 Mini Cooper I had to admit - you can have fun in small, slow car! Fun factor is more avaliable even with smaller speed. When I drive my other, bigger car 120km/h it's just quite silent, comfort driving - in Mini 120 or higher feels like you're doing 180 :D
Gotta love the way the title says slow cars but the thumbnail is one of the fastest road cars of it's day, know for being a crazy fast car that caused multiple police depts to have to retrain their officers in fast pursuit tactics after they received them and they kept crashing them due to how fast they were xD
as someone who actually loves multipla for its unique look and family friendly interiors, seeing it go all out made me smile and made my day ^^
Unique look, alright. A giant melting marshamallow.
Awesome Upload! I Enjoy the Slow cars Slightly More! lol
4:31 😂😂😂
Refreshing video. I might took my 04 Octavia for a spin. 🤣
4:29 as JC would say, 'some poo came out'
It looked like cat litter
best video of all time. The Twingo overtaking the Porsche - says it all!
That was awesome. More!
Я ждал момент когда Нива на бок приляжет🤣🤣
Но она проехала лучше. Фольксваген Амарок имел бо́льшие шансы прилечь - у него заднее колесо оторвалось от асфальта
Чуть чаем не подавился,когда ниву увидел,но как не странно,когда амарок заваливал в поворот,нива не такая и плоха😂
@@AlexeySuVa да, Обморок опасно проехал)
This channel seems to cover the Nurburgring extensively. Is there a video clip of the whole lap Sabine Schmitt in the transit that she did for BBC Top Gear a number of years ago
czcams.com/video/5KiC03_wVjc/video.html Part 2 - the lap
LOL the opening vid is awesome, a Yaris being chased by a Twingo, both passing a Porsche!
3:00 I do the same thing every day when I come to work with my Citroën saxo and Peugeot 206 +, french cars have chassis designed to do this
The biggest problems of "slow cars" and mostly old cars that were cheap, is the tire width, if you put wider rims and tires you can increase a lot the cornering ability of the car. And second thing is the suspension, if you put stiffer suspension and harder roll bars you can make them even better. Just check how good the ban at 8:13 handled the turn with better tires and a racing suspension.
@@SimonWoodburyForget well said. Bodyroll isn't bad at all if the chassis can take advantage of it. A lot of the older citroens lean heavily but handle extremely well.
3:00 - FWD drift! :D
ahahah it was us
I'm so proud of seeing so many french cars and drivers. We may not be the first at the finish line, but we're gonna have fun on the way there !
Some of these aren't even slow cars, just old lol
When they came out they were considered quite sporty.
That Opel is an Omega 3000, the top of the line Model you could get directly from Opel at the time with 204hp. Sure that's not a lot by today's standards but this car is from the late 80s...
Then there's that Xsara VTS which has 167hp. That is well in line with other hot hatches of the time like the Golf IV GTI or the 206 RC/GTi
+ almera gti
I think The BX was a GTi as well. Not slow by standards of the time
Don't forget the similar-looking (Vauxhall) Lotus Carlton. Hardly a 'slow' car, by any standards. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_Carlton
precisely. people have no idea what "fast" or slow" is in a car, they just look at numbers on a sheet of paper
the original Miata had 116 horsepower and though it certainly wasn't a beast by any standard, it was far from "slow". it still had a higher power to weight ratio than many of the old Z cars, and even quite a few of the 70s pony cars. also, you don't need a lot of straight-line speed when you never have to slow down for corners, hehe
@@grahamw56 it's not just similar looking, it's the same as the Lotus Omega or Opel Omega A. They were just sold under different names in Germany and the UK. I meant the Omega 3000 was the top of the line model with an Engine designed and produced by Opel. The Lotus Omega/Carlton has a Cosworth Engine and was one of the fastest production saloons in the world when it was released, only bested by the Alpina B10 BiTurbo
Seeing this video... Certainly motivates me to try pushing my Astra GTC diesel hard on the nurb.
Just gotta get some more training and getting to know how she handles at the limit though
I also drive an Astra H GTC but for this race we will need Astra F Gti
Hell yeah! I would totally ship my manual Hyundai Elantra '09 in germany to try the famous track! I love this little car
I'll bring my 03 Camry, we can party.
@@mikehall3976 hahahaha hell yeah
@@mikehall3976 I mean it's only $850 to ship a car to germany.... just saying
That fiat near the beginning looks so top heavy, I'm surprised it didn't roll 🤣
Nice save with that Twingo!
This is the content I crave
8:02 was my fav :D :D
Lmao 🤣
My car is based off of the Vectra C Caravan 6:28 so just imagine that going around the circuit, but it’s a Pontiac G6
The burgundy Xsara at 1:00 is actually the VTR/S version. It was pretty rapid in its day. And sounds awesome.
This is so funny. Brilliant video!!!
7:04 , who invited sabine schmitz?
The 10 minute Transit
Os mini carros dando show...
This was fun to watch.
Toyota yaris and nissan micra is the main reason that our takeaway deliveries are still hot enough to burn our mouth here in the uk plus they change the oil just as often as the deep fat fryers (not very often)
Some of these 'slow' cars have the telltale signs of a RollCage - which tells me that they aren't as Slow as we are being lead to be believe.
The Corsa A definitely had one installed.
The best was the BMW Vectra at 5:20
This video made me happy.
Genial...Citroënisten sind halt doch echte Racer😎👍
Bei dem uralten Opel Vectra dachte ich erst "wow, hat aber einen geilen Sound"...bis dann Godzilla im Bild auftaucht 🤣🤣🤣
Lada Niva, Carlton GSI and that spotlessly clean looking white Citroen AX were my faves!
Also some love for the BX and the multiple old Volvos!
Y the AX was my favourite
Some look like "slow" the basic model but aren't,the first volvo spin the wheel exiting the corner,the vw van must be modified too.
Saw a vectra A,memories bring me back on 2014 when i got there with mine 🙂
That VW was definitely modified; I drove those things back in the 90s and they were very softly sprung (would lean to one side on fast corners).
However, what gave it away on the VW was that the diff appeared to be welded - the driving wheels screeched through the turn in a way that looks (to me) that the inner tyre was trying to rotate at the incorrect speed.
What about the Lada Niva with custom wheels? It probably also has a track-prepped suspension (since it didn't tip over)? Either that, or the driver's steel balls were weighing the vehicle down to keep it planted haha
I wouldn’t dare to drive the amaros like this, what king!
Actually based on the N-ring observation many of these older and/or cheaper ordinary cars handle hard driven corners better than many modern wannabe sporty cars with too many electronics... This vide is a great proof of that.
The Omega that was shown, is not a slow car. It was the Omaga A 3000 24v with 204HP.
”Straights are for fast cars, corners are for fast drivers”
Couldn’t help but notice that beautiful Porsche flat 6 howl behind the renault at 4:21
1:26 Omega 3000 24V was my first car 20 years ago, but in black. Love it in red too.
I can never decide if the passengers holding up their phones in vertical mode are filming a rubbish video vertically instead of horizontally or if they are shopping or browsing the Internet.
