4 young reliable opportunities with 200+ hp for 15,000 euros
No matter how you look at it, driving is an expensive hobby. You can drive a nice car even with a not too big budget. Autovisie selects four young reliable 200+ hp used cars for under €15,000.
Of course, the reliability of a used car does not only depend on the model. Before you buy a used car, you should thoroughly inspect it or have it inspected. View the maintenance history and note any defects.
Four young reliable opportunities with 200+ hp for 15,000 euros
To get you started, check out these four reliable opportunities aged up to 10 years with over 200hp for less than £15,000. The cars are no guarantee of success, but mostly reliable and put a smile on your face.
1. Renault Clio RS
Although the third generation of the Clio RS, with its 2.0-litre four-cylinder and manual gearbox, is actually more of a ‘hot hatch’ than the fourth generation, this model is also a very playful car.
Under the hood is a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that produces exactly 200 hp in the standard version. The supercharged engine always sends its power to the front wheels via an automatic double-clutch transmission.
Autovisie can find a Renault Clio RS with less than 102,153 kilometers on the clock for just under 15 grand.
2.Nissan Juke Nismo
The Nissan Juke Nismo has the same engine as the Clio RS, but was available with a manual gearbox. The entry-level model of this sporty model also has 200 hp.
We find a Nissan Juke Nismo occasion from 2013 with 119,832 kilometers of experience. The asking price is 13,950 euros.
3. Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Green
Alfa Romeo has the flaw of not always being reliable. However, this certainly does not apply in all cases. For example, the 1750 TBi engine – when properly maintained – is a solid piece of engineering.
The engine can be found in the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde and Brera, among others. The power source made 235 hp in the first years of construction and 241 hp after 2014. Some enthusiasts find the TCT automatic a bit slow. Fortunately, the Italian is also available with a manual gearbox.
Autovisie finds a 2012 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde with almost 136,000 kilometers on the clock. The seller demands 13.5 million for the hatchback.
4.Kia Ceed 1.6GT
The Kia Ceed is also available as a sporty variant with 204 hp. That power comes from a 1.6-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The power supply is fairly interference-free.
You can buy such a Kia Ceed 1.6 GT on occasion for less than 15,000 euros. For example, we found a copy from 2014 with 107,717 kilometers on the clock for 14,995 euros.
