KA's are providing some decent racing entertainment atm, and showing up a few big name drivers in the process 👌👌

These are the challenges we love and cherish 👍 High quality content indeed😁

These challenges are honestly so entertaining, love it. I'd like to next see you each spend the value of the car (another grand) to make them more track focussed, and THEN do some track tours - Brands, Nurburgring, etc. Would be very cool to see what actual performance mods you can do for £1K!

This channel absolutely has the vibe of older Top Gear series, where it was just a lot of good fun. Really hope you can keep that feel going as the channel gets more popular.

I LOVE this series. Thank you, guys

Great video! However, I'll have to defend the Astra's styling a bit, just because it was used for one of my favourite race cars, the Opel Astra V8 Coupé. Sadly the street legal Astra OPC X-treme (name's a bit silly) never made it to the originally planned small series production

you guys make so much funny content, and you all have great natural chemistry between yous

This channel is an absolute gem. love it

The 1.7l engine from the Puma will fit right into that Ka, as will the front brakes and suspension. A little fettling will bring that engine to about 160bhp without affecting reliability. A mate bought a Ka with a blown engine and a water soluble Puma and combined the 2 for a track car. If you can find them, do it.

I absolutely had a blast watching this.. my cheeks hurt from laughing so much 😂 awesome content lads love these videos! It almost gives me old school top gear vibes with you three having a dig at each other! 😉

Totally LOVED this video. Top gear style that we're craving for... So many things to do with those cars. I would like to see a NC500 with the proper guests 😉 (autoalex and the car throttle guys)

I had a first series 1.3, even the same colour of this one. The 1.3 engine had plenty of torque, and the car handled beautifully. The lateral G acceleration it could reach was a selling point at that time.

For your Anusol sponsorship, a tag line suggestion: "Let the racing keep you on the edge of your seat, not your piles."

You could use the mid engined MG and explore how weight distribution affects a cars over-/under-steer tendencies. Put some additional weight in the front, rear or evenly distributed and see how it does.

The Ka was my first Fast Ford. What a fabulous little fun box. Any rust in the fuel filler cap per chance?

Brilliant stuff guys! Such a good show! It would be cool to see if you could spend another 500 and beat the times you set in the other cars at knockhill. The goal to be seeing what the best way is to go as fast as possible as cheap as possible!

Жыл бұрын

Is it back in use as a track again, rather than a car park? I love Rockingham

Absolutely hilarious. So well planned and written. Fab!

Will, do you know how excellent the astra is for track use? It's forgiving and teaches you a lot about steering wheel feedback. Well, at least the opel version, you know, the one where the steeringwheel is on the correct side? :D the suspension is superb, and increasing back tyre pressure to 3 bar and front tyre to 2.1 bar helped me back in the days to get his understeering behavior under control. Set the apex as late as possible, so you may get in the corner slowly but can accelerate earlier, because it understeers a lot under throttle and the lack of a lsd would just lead to wasted cornering potential. If you ever put hands on it, make sure reducing chamber in the rear an optionally increase it int the front, depends on the tyres you wanna use.

I really loved this top gear style videos, keep it up guys!!!

That ford Ka when built actually makes it a really fun track car. Very popular choice here in Brazil. I drive a Ka myself but it's a recent model and it has nothing to do with the original one (it's basically a Fiesta ST without the turbo). The original one is pretty iconic. I also remember it in Gran Turismo.

Excellent video,the "Special"livery is absolutely funny!!!🤣🤣

pure Top Gear content...lov u guys...this is amazing

This very much reminds me of 3 middle aged men doing the same thing some years ago, keep it up lads! Have you considered doing a video with Alex Kersten? That would be a blast!

This channel has the exact same energy as top gear but does things normal people can afford. 10/10

The Ka is more fun than most cars. Raw as hell 👀

Love this channel, always a pleasant surprise when I see an upload

Please do more track day videos, this is epic!

I love a banter and cheekiness of all 3 of these hosts. Really, they’d be great if they took the place for new Top Gear.

Such great content this. To take the idea further, I'd say put in another grand in parts to upgrade the car to be even faster, then go racing again, and see who improved the most.

Just the car show I've been craving

Amazing content lads ❤️

I love the Ka as racing car! Had some of my funniest drives in it! Just get it on a very small, curvy track with bumps and jumps! That´s the most fun, you can have in a car! It is so agile! Has the (not so bad) running gear of a Fiesta, but is even smaller and lighter. Just get it on the right track and freak out!

I loved my KA. Really fun car to drive, and it's so cheap that you don't really worry if you scrape it. Really did punish that engine and it lasted through 2 solid years of hard driving without proper warming up. And with no traction control, it was super fun in the wet. Easily spins the fronts up to 40 in first. The KA hasn't got any power, but it has just the right balance for fast cornering on tight back roads. Also really stuck to the road when I had my mate with me. Kept up with a fiesta on one of our decent driving roads. He pulled on the straights, but I caught him in the corners. Handbrake turns are also fairly easy as there is virtually no weight in the back. Can't fault that car one bit. The only issue we had was a dead battery. Before the accident, I could probably have put that car up for sale for £2000. No advisories other than a dodgy garage that failed her for rust that was magically gone when we went to another garage. Really was in great condition. Unfortunately she got written off on the 8th of Jan 2023 as an 86 year old woman tried to turn into a carpark infront of me whilst I was doing 50mph on a 60mph road which was straight and flat, with nothing obstructing her view of my car. Not much you can do in any car in that situation. I'll miss my little yeg, And I won't ever forget her. Onwards and upwards though. Next car is going to be a 2015 to 2018 focus, preferably the 1.5. More power and wider tires, so hopefully I won't have fiestas pulling away from me on the straights anymore.

The best part is when Jeremy and Richard tinkered with James' car when he was inside the store 🤣

“And here we are, through Bomb Hole - first time for everything” First time for everything indeed Callum! Happy for ya 👍🏾

I was marshalling at the final corner, i thought the ka was going to roll most laps 😂😂 he liked the sausage kerb

The Ka livery reminds me to a Ford Ka which appeared in Cross Racing Championship (2005 game). It was almost identical. Great video, guys! From a Spanish fan of yours

You know what would be nice for this type of challenges? People getting along well and respecting each other, not trying to copy Top Gear.

I had a Ford Ka. It went on all kinds of track days because I knew what I had - Ford's Fiesta IV platform which was always excellent. Yes, you can overtake Porsches because it's like driving a wee little roller skate.

these challenges are top gear / car throttle level, hope to see more actions from these car

Ka is an epic handling car, of which u can use all of the power. Fun like a Go-Cart, with a wheel planted right on the edge each corner. I used to love burning round in my Wife's old Ka!!

this channel is slowly becoming top gear and I love it

I'd love to see you take a wrench to these cars and do what you can to make them good without breaking the bank! Some decent tires, weight reduction, good brakes, etc.

Love the KA, grandfarther owns one and used to race it! he did pretty decent and even got featured in a magazine in the early 2000's!

Won't be allowed now you have 'painted' them but would be great to see you guys do a targa rally in boggo standard 1000£ cars in the same categories. Could be a whole little serise! Car prep, practice, how tos and see who can win! Would be good to see targas get some coverage

I love this channel. Enough said

Little did Scott know how much that car would prove them all wrong, what a machine.

The bumps through Bombhole have been dealt with by Will and his Anusol Astra.

Giving old top gear vibes

You guys should do a series where you progressively add upgrades to the car. Similar to Donut’s High/Low series and eventually have them battle it out once and for all!

these channel will be a legend like top gear and grand tour

OG Top Gear vibes. Even if this idea isn’t “original” I still love it.

As someone who owned an mg tf (£200 plus £200 for a new subframe - good deal!) Callum is a brave guy. Anything remotely slippy and 2,500 revs would spin the wheels and make it swap ends like it was nothing! Spun into a snowdrift twice in it...good times until the head gasket went!

I love this, it reminds me of top gear.
