+Dominic Fong I noticed reviews from English review sites always film in cold, dark, inclement weather. I don't know watching them almost causes low grade depression. :)
That's what the weather is like I guess. BTW, don't you notice that English automotive reviews rarely show us the engine. Do they consider it vulgar to open up the hood(bonnet)?
I must be getting old because I am seriously looking at the GLC as next ride. Been driving the X3 in the past 4 years and I am seriously tired of the diesel and the crappy interior. I can also add ALL extras - more than I could with the Q5 or X3. Just hopping they come up with an updated infotainment before I order.
"The seat is in the furthermost position (btw: furthermost in which direction???) and the steering wheel is in the closest position to drive. And the average height of female UK driver is 5 foot 3 and I really think they would struggle to drive this car". Huh? What ? What is the problem exactly? AND WHY? You did not even finish that sentence, you did not explain what the problem is AT ALL. Come on, I thought you are a professional reviewer? Anybody has any idea what is she talking about there?
She talks about the X3 having better handling through corners. I wonder if she had the dynamic control set on "sport" or "comfort"? We own this car and find the sport mode to be quite good with handling, considering it is an SUV. It's shocking that the UK is only given these lower HP engines. In the US, we only have the 241 HP gasoline engine.
Good Lord I can hear/see her do reviews all the time!! Funny enough, we'll be picking up our GLC300 4matic this weekend. Really hope I can use the old GLK winter tire setup on the new car. Those front brake calipers have grown in size compared to last years model... I'm running 17's for the winter. I might have to go up to 18's for the winter to clear those big brake calipers
i know im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Mathias Uriel I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
Is it cold there in April or was this recorded earlier in the year? It is about 80 degrees and mostly cloudy here today. Watch it Garmin's world headquarters is in my home town.
Sorry Rebecca, but how comes that all other car journalists rated it above the x3 and the Discovery... for the gearbox, interior, exterior, space, comfort, consumption(except the price. tag).... and you don't. It reminds me of Sarah Palin and her: 97% of scientists have no clue on climate changes.
+Mario Kajin Climate change is non-existed and journalist can have differnt opinions, commie crap. And those 97% are a random number as propaganda to make mindless criitcless puppets like you soak up the propaganda of the eco-lobbyists. It's a scam and many times unproven but the honest scientists are ignored.
Nice colour, just a shame about what it's wrapped round! Not an SUV fan. Most are excessively heavy with a high centre of gravity, hardly the best combination for on-road driving. If you have need to go off-road or do a lot of towing then I see the point of a Land Rover or Landcruiser etc. For me Mercedes exterior styling has far too much going on these days - typically badly proportioned and with fussy detailing - lots of unnecessary lines and creases. This, to be fair, is better than some of late. Merc interiors also have too much of the bling factor - all that chrome and silver purporting to convey luxury. Great air vents though! Meanwhile, I'm glad to see this week's banana looks in better shape!
That display on the dash just looks hideous & would irritate the crap out of me. Mercedes should go to VW and learn how to integrate a touch screen display into the dashboard.
Everybody really needs to copy the screen placement in the Audi TT. I really hate the plunked on looking screen mercedes and BMW are doing. At the very least put it where the radio used to be on older cars.
I drove all three and bought the GLC. The others felt cheap inside, and that is where I spend my time. Not impressed with the Volvo X60, the center console was too high. Really liked the X90 , but it was too big.
Poor banana, not a single word for it ;) Despite the few centimetres more does anyone find differences with the C-class Estate? I'm a MB fan, but this is quite lazy work - they just up-scale the C-class on the printer with 110% Despite that I still can't get who is the idiot which take big SUV because its sportiness - if you are "real keen driver" go and take something lighter and lower for for christ's sake!!!
Neel Parmar Lower it up and there is pretty much no differences, there are slight changes of course but the overall look and the silhouette is the same. Nice car, no doubt but it is quite not enough for "The best or nothing" slogan.
The X1 doesn't look anywhere as good as the GLC, not sure how can be the segment leader given that the GLC is competent in all fronts and very relaxing quiet ride. Where is the X3 better then the Disco Sport or the F-Pace? And I the Q5 is probably the sales leader. Plus there is the Macan.
The car that made me realise that so many modern cars are boring. When I saw it, I felt absolutely nothing. You just know that it had to be made for financial and marketing purposes, and that there was absolutely no passion or creativity involved in the development. Just ticking boxes until the car was good enough for production. Dreadful.
+appelpower1 I'm with you there. I also can't get my heart to beat faster at a lot of modern cars. The GLK was funky, this is just another size of something we've seen before. Audi Q5 is much bette.r
Firemarioflower The GLK isn't very good from what I've heard, but indeed it's at least memorable. That accounts for something. Personally, I can't care for the Q5 either, but I guess that's a matter of taste. At least Audi wasn't as late to the party as Mercedes was.
call me a perv but i find myself watching Rebecca to see her wearing a GREAT pair of boots nearly as much as i wnat to hear about the cars - this pair are deffo top ten and don't start me talking about red leather gloves....i need a cold shower
The Bmw is bigger and better to drive. It has a smoother gearbox and a quieter engine, and also possibly smarter 4wd system, since it can send 100% of the power to one wheel if necessary, while the Merc is 40:60 split. Just because something is new, it does not make it better. Although the Merc has a nicer interior.
Dont worry a lot of women who drive these 'mid size' SUV's cant even see over the steering wheel but that doesnt stop them from buying or driving em! #schoolrunoverkill
Another new MB model instantly beaten by an older rival. Luckily it won't make any difference as they are never purchased by people that care about cars. Only people that care about badges.
Sam Harper If it would be a glued ipad..or any other modern top of the line tablet, it would be ok. Especialy the screen on C and A class was literally a brick.
acceptable rear end but that front end LOL especially the interior LOOOLLLL and that screen LOLOLOLOL. stop trying too hard with your SUVs mercedes, stick with your bonkers SLS and AMG GT, and that lovely S Class of yours.
One ugly duckling !! how come you did not mention the number one SUV ? the new Volvo XC90 , the Merc's interior looks so dull and cheap, so depressing to be in on long journeys unlike the XC90, plus its not a 7 seater !!
Would you buy a car from Mercedes, the people who won almost every race in Formula 1 for the last couple of years, or would you rather buy a car from BMW, the people who haven't won nothing? This girl says you should get the X3. Considering the way she dresses and the fact that she seems to be obsessed with bananas and her own hight, 'I wouldn't take her advice on nothing.
Hi there! You don't have to hold the start button when you start the engine. A short push is perfectly enough.
Dude, how cold is the UK now???!!! Lisbon is nice and sunny. 28°C! 😈
the blind side assistance is helpful, i like the run flat tires and the power seat belts as well as heated seats and self parking features
rebecca in boots 😉
i know😉 shes a fab woman
ALSO my wife is 5 ft 3 she loves how it drives no complaints.. she been driving since she was 16. so the height thing is just your preference
Im here only for Mercedes..
NOT
Lol
😂
you forgot to show the hidden compartment in the boot
Rebecca has herself all wrapped up head to toe from all the prying eyes on RUclips!
Put a jacket on the sun and it's still hot

+Dominic Fong The engine is bay is covered in plastic covers these days. There's little point in opening it
+Dominic Fong Why is that? Are you another one of these conspiracy theorists who think she's married??
The banana.👌🏼
She says all the cons of this car with an enthusiastic sarcasm.
I really love this girl!!
me too wlh
Want to know what it will be like when they put in the 350 CDI or the 450 engine
Rebecca nice to see you again

Mercedes really should offer a 6 cylinder option on a car like this, some people want the refinement this would offer over a clattery 4 pot diesel.
Is the review car AMG model? Nice colour and I like the wheels
Rebecca, you're so awesome you could sell ice cubes at the North Pole!
So beautyful car, l like it. But I'm waiting for GLC coupé👍👍👍.
* beautiful and there ain't a coupé one😑

Wow !!! she should be on Top Gear
rebecca is lovely to watch
Is it cold there in April or was this recorded earlier in the year? It is about 80 degrees and mostly cloudy here today. Watch it Garmin's world headquarters is in my home town.
5 foot 4 and a half how I miss you
Thanks GOD finally found her!
nice looking car. 😉

+Firemarioflower +10k
i agree with you
But the "class leader" (BMW?) isn't good on icy winter conditions..
Rebecca Jackson Is amazing
What's it like offroad though?
And of course in car is BANANA))
those red gloves are making me feel funny in my tummy
She reviewed the Mercedes but she talked the BMW more.

356 likes for Rebecca, and 24 dislikes for the car
Is it possible to say the dimensions also in cm, for the European viewers. Ty
I have the glc 350d, goes like the clappers, 35mpg and 0 to 60 in 6 seconds....
The men are here for Rebecca😉 im here for both lol as a dude! Lol😉
Was review sponsored by BMW?
There you are! Carbuyer lost a great presenter or two
When exhaust
My Crush❤️... the car is cool too
I luv the boots ! I am single and have NO car !
nice they design that dash and add a tablet with some tape. what that banana do Rebecca?
@Hugh Mongus Most of Europe, like diesel
did you use eco stop /start?
nice car
That display on the dash just looks hideous & would irritate the crap out of me.
Mercedes should go to VW and learn how to integrate a touch screen display into the dashboard.
This car is sooo expensive, way more than it looks
Show this to John Cadogan :D
I have this car 350d amg line best car I have owned
I hope they bring the diesel to the US.
Everybody really needs to copy the screen placement in the Audi TT. I really hate the plunked on looking screen mercedes and BMW are doing. At the very least put it where the radio used to be on older cars.
56MPG? Remember where you are my dear!
5 foot 4 & a half of pure pleasure
@1:56 banana for scale?
Whats up with those cheap looking screens in most of the mb models.. hideous
I have to agree. At this point, Audi and BMW have been doing way better than Mercedes-Benz. This sucks :(
I'd much rather have the Volvo XC60 or Range Rover Evoque
+Henris Ivaskevicius range rover evoque? the ugliest car to ever be created you mean?
+Fredrik Melin Oh yeah? What do you drive? Exactly. Go shove your Prius up your ass.
+Fredrik Melin Now now. I can thik of a lot much worse shaped vehicles.
I drove all three and bought the GLC. The others felt cheap inside, and that is where I spend my time.
Not impressed with the Volvo X60, the center console was too high. Really liked the X90 , but it was too big.
What is it with Rebecca and bananas? lol
The banana hahahaha
i'd have my banana in her storage compartment anyday !
Poor banana, not a single word for it ;)
Despite the few centimetres more does anyone find differences with the C-class Estate? I'm a MB fan, but this is quite lazy work - they just up-scale the C-class on the printer with 110%
Despite that I still can't get who is the idiot which take big SUV because its sportiness - if you are "real keen driver" go and take something lighter and lower for for christ's sake!!!
Personally, when I see one I can tell it's a glc straight away. It's different enough for me.
Neel Parmar Lower it up and there is pretty much no differences, there are slight changes of course but the overall look and the silhouette is the same.
Nice car, no doubt but it is quite not enough for "The best or nothing" slogan.
+benzfen I'm with you there. The GLK was something of it's own.
9 speed gearbox!!?!???
Im buying one the banana's persuaded me!!
The X1 doesn't look anywhere as good as the GLC, not sure how can be the segment leader given that the GLC is competent in all fronts and very relaxing quiet ride. Where is the X3 better then the Disco Sport or the F-Pace? And I the Q5 is probably the sales leader. Plus there is the Macan.
have you seen x1 in person? the q5 looks like carton box
+ZS K Didn't saw any F-Pace yet, the others are all very common sight around here (Montreal, Canada).
+TheGreatLoco The F Pace would be my pick but it's significantly more expensive than a GLC and it's a bigger car. The GLC looks pretty darn good
The car that made me realise that so many modern cars are boring. When I saw it, I felt absolutely nothing. You just know that it had to be made for financial and marketing purposes, and that there was absolutely no passion or creativity involved in the development. Just ticking boxes until the car was good enough for production. Dreadful.

I love when she wears boots.
Cute
The X3 looks oldfashioned....I prefer the Benz with a 6 cilinder Diesel. What?? They only have 4 pots??? Shame on them, LOL
este mismo mi padre pero mi padre en blanco idéntico
1:19 !! Just come here to see that banana !!!! the banana in telegraph always looks better than in carbuyer :))
What's the deal with the banana???
+Klasse Act if you follow Rebecca's review. You will know banana is her best friend ever!!
+cop con I've only been watching for a couple months and have seen her other views on Car Buyer. The mind wanders about your answer though!
+Klasse Act you better check her videos from the past.
call me a perv but i find myself watching Rebecca to see her wearing a GREAT pair of boots nearly as much as i wnat to hear about the cars - this pair are deffo top ten and don't start me talking about red leather gloves....i need a cold shower
very elegant women😍
Oh dear. How old is the X3? The brand new Merc can't beat it? Typically spec'd up review car.
The Bmw is bigger and better to drive. It has a smoother gearbox and a quieter engine, and also possibly smarter 4wd system, since it can send 100% of the power to one wheel if necessary, while the Merc is 40:60 split. Just because something is new, it does not make it better. Although the Merc has a nicer interior.
Unless the goal is to make a better car than the class leader.
Makke The X3 can do all of that?
Honcedes CRV LOL
Banana for scale, I see what you did there (°I°)
Dont worry a lot of women who drive these 'mid size' SUV's cant even see over the steering wheel but that doesnt stop them from buying or driving em! #schoolrunoverkill
What was the whole thing about the banana?!?
She has been doing the banana test for years. To show how practical the car is
She's got her banana again.
nothing for Tesla to worry about
Another new MB model instantly beaten by an older rival. Luckily it won't make any difference as they are never purchased by people that care about cars. Only people that care about badges.

That center crt monitor is just so f'ing ugly...mercedes, what are you doing...
crt? no, it's lcd...
but agreed, it looks awful!
+Pienimusta Agree. But people seem to love the glued-on-iPad look these days.

A smooth silky SUV.

You weren't missing much with the previous gen "GLK". It was an ugly boxy looking thing.
