The history lesson was much appreciated. I never understood the term shooting break. Thank you!

[@eddyrocket8737]

The inserted still of that e63 estate had me running to the classifieds

[@philcampeau]

Sadly the Shooting Brake never makes it to North America. A big SUV with a loud engine is considered the better choice. So sad.

[@TermlessHGW]

I saw one the other day in white on the Staten Island expressway with NY plates. Very rare indeed. I was drooling for a moment.

[@hankmoody6996]

How would one be able to register a uk shooting brake in the states?

[@Under_Construction100]

Mind says E63 Estate. Heart says CLS63 Shooting Brake. Cool attire by the way, Vicki.

[@niki7040]

Sadly, they no longer do the CLS Shooting Brake!

[@P17NGS]

This car was up for sale recently, near Chorley, sigh missed out! 😂

[@farishanafiah8461]

Still loving Shooting Brake design to date

[@mufflejoy]

Ehm, there are two rivals at least: Audi RS6 Panamera Sport Tourismo (although of course not in 2013). Excellent history lesson though.
Especially thanks for highlighting more "sensible" options than SUV which weigh 500kg more, need more hydraulics than the space station to not end up on its roof, and offer less interior space. Estates rule.

Love Vicki

[@tubeMonger]

Review parody is my favourite genre on RUclips.

[@hanzhang3589]

The Audi RS6 owns the field now.

[@ryanclough8439]

only because the cls left.

[@tony66au]

VBH is a fairly good shot as well, Who'd have though it?

[@caalcb7]

The W218 CLS clearly have the best design. The new ones isn't. Kinda shame.

[@MrCupra79]

Vicki 😍

[@FAT8893]

I'd be way more than happy to take a Shooting Brake car like this Merc instead of any SUV all day long.

[@user-sf7kl9uh7k]

It's dated like a heap, the E Estate kills it.

[@MS-nk4xb]

- Å fan!

[@Salty3439]

83K, WoW. 😳😳😳

[@halililkman4477]

Most shoking thing is she know how to drive and how to shoot. Wow 😍

[@gavinwyllie7855]

She was a professional racing driver.

[@halililkman4477]

@@gavinwyllie7855 i know her since she 2001 from old top gear.

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

They don’t make a CLS63 AMG anymore.
Now the most powerful CLS is the CLS53 AMG.

[@mattonaircraft28]

Which is a shame really… V8 biturbo 5.5 litre was amazing. I love this car, it’s shape and the fact it’s a shooting brake!

[@DaveDVideoMaker]

@@mattonaircraft28 Now it’s a 435 horsepower 3-litre inline six.

[@chrishowells3097]

I'm no expert - but i was always told, "3 doors = shooting brake, 5 doors = estate car". So, yer Merc is an estate car or station wagon in the USA. For shooting brake think Vauxhall Magnum.

[@stevebucuris8420]

It looks like a four door hatchback.

[@jd_the_cat]

A long hatchback.

[@muhammedkamaci9038]

wow

[@knowthings489]

I thought she was going to shoot the car

[@OurCognitiveSurplus]

If it was 2 door…

[@user-sf7kl9uh7k]

It looks sxxte

[@malcolmc5964]

Is it only me? This channel is just repeating old videos! I think I'm gone until we get some current content.
