10 Cheap luxurious sedans #blogpost
Before I start I want to say a couple things:
Before I start I want to say a couple things:
- Sorry to Ian Wright for the title (if he reads this)
- Cars here are under 2k euros
- I mention cars that you can buy in Europe and some in America, sorry to all Americans reading (probably none)
- I will be working my way from the best one to the “worst” one
BMW 7-series
Not only can you get this beast in a V12 version, but also a V8.
This goes around for 2000 minimum, but you get what you pay for. I mean just look at this big boat, bulletproof…
Not only its styling is stunning but also the power: you get 188bhp with the cheapest model and 300bhp for the most expensive V12 model, but let’s get serious the only way you can get a V12 BMW 750iL is by going to Germany and praying to God that the owner is a petrolhead.
I dont know what else to say, I’m not really a BMW fan, as you all know i kind hate them…
Mercedes-Benz S-Class W140
Buying this car back in the 90’s was like buying a yacht. I mean look at this thing, it looks like a boat. Again like the BMW, this thing goes for 2k euros minimum, if you find it under 2k it was probably in a bank robbery and the mafia is trying to get rid of the car. Probably the only Merc i actually like… But anyways this also has a V12 version, not sure if it had a V8 version as well, but anyways the cheapest model had 177bhp and ofc the most expensive one and probably the one you will see being driven by celebrities sometimes has 394 bhp. It was designed not to age, the design that will never get old. Thats why i like these older S-classes.
Audi A8
I always thought that the A8 is a Audi 80, they do look very similar (in fact the A8 looks like a stretched 80). There is one near me and i hear it every morning roaring when it leaves its driveway. This thing has no chill.
Models for rich people had V8 engines, but all other had V6 engines. In countries like Germany and Austria they are cheap as i can see, but on Balkan its a whole different story… Models go from 2k to 10k and most of them are 2.5… I really dont understand the logic… Germany is not far away, i can import one. No wonder this country is falling apart every second…
Anyways as i said it had V8 engines some making 224, 230, 260 and 300bhp… and V6 models 150, 174, 180 and 193bhp…
There is one little problem…
Its FWD.
BMW 5-series
Really not much to say about this thing… Its like others on the list but cheaper. Like a 7-series but cheaper if i can say that. Anyways V8 engine in the M5 and it has a Touring version too, i whould honestly go for the touring one because its better looking and its a vagon… Get yourself a 5-series and you can expect a car with 100-/+ bhp. Only if you are like Alex and buy a lemon because you work at CT and you have to have a BMW…
Anyways, the cheapest one will hopefully have 113bhp and the most powerful and probobly the most expensive one will have 218bhp… and the M5 model 340bhp…
Audi A6
My uncle has one of these… You can award this car as “Best first car for a guy that wants to get a expensive new Audi but he cant, also he likes golddiggers”. Audi is like a cheap BMW but a more expensive Opel (yes, i just said that). What you get for a pricetag of 2k euros is a FWD sedan that is a demo version of the A8, altough the A8 is based on the 80 and the A6 on the 100 (which was bigger and better at the time), somehow Audi thought its was a good idea to buff the 80 and make the 100 look like crap.
(Im not sure if any of that is correct what i said there)
For those hard earned 2k euros you get a 90bhp car and if you are lucky you can get a 115bhp model… If you have a bit extra money, get yourself a Quattro A6, so that you have a luxurious car that is not EWD (Embarrassing wheel drive).
Opel Senator B
Now that all those people who like German expensive cars left, we can now talk about real luxurious cars. Opel Senator is a bargain of the century… How? Not is this thing like 1000 times better than a Opel Omega but its full of LCD monitors and even had a CD model… Let me show you what im talking about:
How is this not cool? Look at this thing, if i deleted the Opel badge you whould think its a American car that whould cost you too much… Finding this car is a bit harder (at least in the Balkan) but as i can see in Germany and Austria these things are a bit easier to find. Sold under the name Vauxhall Royale in UK and Vauxhall Royale Coupe (Opel Monza) these things are probobly the hardest to find, but once you find one you will not regret the decision you bought one. Why? 0 RUST. No, really no rust whatsoever…
Well all models are going to cost around the same price but the cheapest one is 90bhp and the one you will pay a little bit more is going to be 204bhp V6 model with Dual Ram (not sure what that even is :D)
Honda/Acura Legend
Accord too familiy-ish for you? Then get a Legend… After you payed 2k euros for your upgraded Accord (yet still the drivetrain is still the same) you get a 90’s car that looks like it was made in early 2000’s… You basicly got yourself a Lexus… No, im dead serious, if you put Lexus badges on this thing i whould legit think its a Lexus… I think Honda made this to compete with the Lexus LS 2000. They even look the same from the back.
Every Legend is equipped with a 3.5 V6 engine that has 205bhp. No other engines, just this one…
Mazda Xedos 6
Since i know nothing about this car, and im also kinda lazy to do any kind of research here is a blog that a fellow CTzen made about it
Opel Omega
It whouldnt be a LittleFun blog without a Opel Omega in it. I talk waaayy too much about this car and how its great. Its like a demo verison of the Opel Senator. This is RWD unlike those Audis and automaticly makes it 1000 better than any car on this list. This is the only car on this list that i didnt need to do research on because i know so much about. The absolute cheapest Omega (1k euro) will have 101bhp, BUT the ones with V6 can go from 2k to 5k euros so if you have a bit more money to spend get yourself on of these, they dont rust like other Opels and you basicly got a 5-series for like 10 times cheaper…
Renault Safrane
95% probobly forgot about this but let me show you what it is: its a big boat that is a sleeper and its FWD sadly… If you follow me long enough you will know that i absolutley love the Safrane along with the Renault Laguna, that was untail i found out that Opel Omega and Opel Senator were RWD… Anyways the Safrane 3.0 V6 is rare but somehow common on classifields… There are total of 8 left in UK and idk about other countries. Every safrane will cost you about 2k euros except the Bi-Turbo model that will cost you around 10k euros, but great power.
And thats all, get yourself one of these cars before its too late and they go expensive and collectable. I suggest the S-class for keeping because these things are going to be expensive and Opel Senator because its the most luxurious car on this list, just buy it.
Anyways, thats all for today
Bye

Posts like this is why CT has gone to absolute sh!t
It whouldnt be sht if 95% of you didnt came straight outta fb… I didnt know its going to get this big by CT sharing this blog
Dude you cant get Safrane Bi-Turbo for under 50k :D
I know, this blog turned out to be absolute sht. Mods are thinking about deleting this blog even tho CT shared it on fb
Cough Cough,Volvo 850 Cough Cough
I thought of putting it in, but i decided not to because i dont know anything about this car
“This is RWD unlike those Audis and automaticly makes it 1000 better than any car on this list.”
This is probably the most stupid thing I’ve seen here on CT. you are saying cuz the omega is rwd its better than any car on this list, most of the cars on this list is rwd. And also the opel omega is known to be the worst opel ever made. the car is a mechanics nightmare. my dad had one when they was still new and it just kept breaking down. They are cheap for a reason, and that being that they are crap. Every mechanic I have spoken with have said that the worst car they can think of is the opel omega. So please make this a bit professional and don’t just type your own opinions (if you like the car that is your thing) but type an article about this with fact instead of personal opinions.
IT WAS A JOKE WHY ARE PEOPLE SO SERIOUS AND ANGRY ABOUT THIS BLOG
AlfaOmega
Sorry to say this, but your info on the Opels was incorrect. All Omegas rust away. That is why they are so hard to find in good condition. And I believe the Senator came before the Omega, so not a “demo version”. Other then that, I think its overall a good blog post. Nevermind the few hits and misses here and there, like other have pointed out. Sorry if this made you feel bad ;(.
In my country there are rarely rusty Omegas, really rare… In Finland ofc its going to be rusty because snow is there more common
“you get a 90’s car that looks like it was made in the early 2000’s” 10/10 writing OP
i dont understand what did i say wrong
And audi 100 doesnt look that bad with decent wheels.. Something like dolphin :p //Real photo of my car
Looks like a toy car :D
WTF it hurts my eyes to read all of this lies and wrong information!! How the hell this article is online here??
Its not my fault CT put this into editors pick, this whould be a harmless blog if they didnt put it up
I think Lexus LS400 should be in there before Renault safrane
I got a BMW 520i E34 for under 1k€
Great winterbeater, and really luxorious with almost all accessories.
When people are asked to guess the price, they usually say around 3000€ :)
On the southern coast of the gulf E39’s have creeped to the 1000€ mark. Mostly 520 and 523 ones. My girlfriend actually bought one 520 E39 for 1000€. A bit underpowered but damn that car it’s so soft and comfy (and didn’t rust like other, more capable ones) :D.
