"The Mercedes B-Class is a compact MPV with a difference - it has a premium badge on the bonnet. In theory it's up against models like the Volkswagen Golf Plus, Ford C-MAX and Toyota Verso, but it's considerably more expensive, more luxurious and higher quality than all of those."

My fourth MB. Would never have bought it, my father did. After he died, I took it for sentimental reasons. Now I love it. Great car, economically, good space, quiet relaxing drive. Love you dad, you made great choices.
I am just about to get my dads one
Mercedes really do understand how to make any type of car good looking
2:02 You can't hide that edit from me!
a very well spoken women, pleasant to the ear, its like watching a movie in a very high definition mode.
Did she mean small upmarket MPV, cause she said SUV.
such a good review, with style
Very great car of monospace! I love this classe B
Wow this is the best review, straight forward and high class.. Love it
Why does carbuyer always put Air Conditioning as standard features? I thought every modern car now comes with that
***** Nope. Look at some base model Corsas etc. They don't come with it standard.
***** Sadly its not standard on all cars still. I'm pretty sure that most of Dacia's line up has A/C as an optional extra
best review i've seen
Its clear that you have not seen the vid from High Peak Auto's then.
I use to get excited when carbuyer uploads; now they just make boring reviews. Even matt has lost his magic
No he hasn't, this one.. you know.
***** no. I don't know. You made no sense whatsoever. Please.. Explain.
TurWack well let's just say that ginny is crap and matt is decent.
***** not anymore. Like I said, matt has lost his magic
TurWack Same here
Can your do a review on the mercesdes s400l
why is so important cupholder for the brits!!! Do they have breakfast in the car while driving?
i wonder the same hahaha
Yes we actually do lmao. Always eating toast and having tea in a mug on my way to work lol
Yes
No but we have a bottle of coke on a hot day
Narrow, winding roads everywhere. With lots of pot holes.
Have to keep things secure! 😂
do some cars not come with air con as standard.
Did she just call it an SUV?
WingeBag Yep she did.
Firemarioflower Alright, after playing it in 0.5 speed, she says "the small..." rather than "this small...". But she needs to speak a bit more clearly because, in the same 0.5 speed, SUV sounds like "esh-u-vee".
Firemarioflower Ahum... that's what I was saying now.
Firemarioflower She mumbles her words in the beginning especially. I can understand why everyone's confused.
Firemarioflower I guess so.
Great review as always. Thanks Carbuyer
You could have cleaned the steering wheel before filming, looks like somebody's sneezed all over it!!! ;o)
😅😂
I was being more classy ;)
omg I thought I was the only who noticed that.....
hahaha good 1!
Brilliant!
Great review , and the best thing about Mercedes...their secondhand-programs...for half the money, low milage and today with brussels autosalon with 4y warranty! I just love Mercedes!
What is that bar across the boot behind the back seats?
Just to inform you carbuyer that the links for the ford and BMW are the same both take you to the ford c max review
I like Ginny. Her voice is smooth and you can understand everything she's saying.
I remember when videos with Rebecca were full of dumb comments as well in the start....
Not all models have reverse camera though - mine doesn't. Well, maybe in Canada it's a different config
The one thing that kept going through my mind as I watched this is the amount of electronics that will no doubt go wrong... I've spent almost 4 grand on my Merc over the past 2 years, all due to wonky electronics.
Dan McCarthy let me guess... it's an S-Class from the 90s :D
'01 SLK230.
Dan McCarthy well that is even worse! Electronics aren't unreliable nowdays
I assume this is a 2015 model(w246), but she said that the basic models have reverse camera. I have a 2012 model but the revsering camera is not included :C
:(
Does anyone know what the ground clearance is on the none AMG B class is? Thanks
Get your description right, Carbuyer
"Feels a little bit strange at first.. but you get used to it sooo quickly.." heh heh heh
Much prefer Matt's reviews where we get the full pros and cons of the car while this lovely lady talks like she is selling mercedes. No mention about how much more road noise B class tend to have over other merc models, rides tend to be more on the firm side, slight bodyroll around corners but great visibility all around the car and how easy it is to get in and out of the car. I would have gotten the same from simply watching the video and muting the sound.
Glovebox?
It would be better that review is with most common level of equipment, and showing how big people fit in here...
how can it be more spacious than before? It was just a very mild facelift
This is a car for a Prince 😍
Where is the extrat wheel?? I can not see it? .. Thanks
Youness Arriade most mercedi come with foam tire filler so that the punctured tire can still drive as the foam covers the hole and seals it
Mercedes quality, Mercedes reliability? Where?
Leo Nidas In the W123 and W124...
kossak007 Oh yes, I couldn't agree more, Mercedes should take a look in the past...
kossak007 Those were some real cars.
Leo Nidas don't forget the W126
I have driven B200 Cdi until almost 200,000 KM. It is very reliable. No any problem at all !
It’s a very good car and you should buy it by sport!
She does it all the time!!!
Minx
I prefer a kuga with the demin line to be honest
Hi I’m going to buying b class 2014 plz let me know if this car is good ???
Me too
Did you buy it? If you did, do you like it?
Her voice adorable and sweet
What's the point of a sports package for a MPV? Owning an MPV doesn't make you a loser, it just says you got small kids. But owning MPV with AMG-styling pack does make you look ridiculous.
The front window is huge
Since when was the B Class an SUV? Mercedes Benz themselves always classed it as a MAV.
SUV??
i like her a lot!!
Why review the range but only show the top-line model. Gives a false impression of the car
how long does it take to charge?
How can BMW and Mercedes justify the relative lack of flexibility in these cars. Citroen has been doing this car since the nineties?
I think the exterior should be changed for once, this model has been out for soooooooo long!
I'm 6ft4 can I fit in too drive the vehicle
john skywalker?
I liked tis Mercdes Benz model very much. I wish I will own this model. I advise You Mercdes Benz cars. Becaus eof the production Quality.
Tyre size
Did she really compare it to a sls! And she called it a SUV and didn't show glove box!
Bad review
i wonder what would be ginny's thoughts if she were to read your comments. like,c'mon guys, we're here to watch a car review, not a porn shag. the "storage section" part of the video, back then with rebecca, was really weird if you'd ask me (yeah, the banana storage thing - like she couldn't find any better object for scale; IMO she deliberately chose it for more sex appeal. there, i said it). give ginny some credit, she's reviewing cars like she's supposed to do.
Rebecca where are you?. We all miss you.
SUV = Sport Utility Vehicle
The side mirrors and back lights doesn’t look good
Car has very little ground clearance for an MPV
"even the basic model have air conditioning..." Well ofc they are gonna have it in 2015 and in a Mercedes...
I like this lady but something is missing in this review
Yup it's not a full review
you've got the wheel on the wrong side, lady. Complain! (hugs from EU :) )
Looks like a oreo.
Bring rabbeca back
KHD Let it go, man.
Firemarioflower She did the WRX thingie here.
how the system is intuitive when you need to get use to it???? did you even think when you want to say something???
lalos And if you say that Windows and/or OS X are intuitive and easy to use....then my arse!
Nice
all u down below are just keyboard warriors.. the car is lovely and I am planning on getting 1 😁
Did you get any of the b class I want to hear your experience I want one too
@@robertsinkonde7145 I got an used B250 AMG package with 26,000km.. very spacious and smooth! Practical and decent fuel economy around 8.5L/100Km.. i chose to have power over economy, but the ideal balance in terms of fuel economy and power is the B200. Great turning circle for city driving and very comfy on long cruises. Great visibility with the seating position and so far no problem whatsoever.
Only thing I’d like to change is the run flat tires to make the ride slightly softer but still got heaps of thread so might take a while. The gear box sometimes is “lazy” when accelerating slowly to try to maximize fuel economy, but not a deal breaker. If you floor it in sports mode then the car comes alive!
Hope my review is useful.
@@allankobanawa9204 thanks alot for the feedback, the time I asked about this question I was about to buy the B200, but I was discouraged and I ended up buying latest Toyota vitz but still my heart wants a Mercedes Benz B-class, however with time I might change to Mercedes
The Rims look so cheap. Why make every car on the road look like its ready to go on track when people hardly ever do so because of the expenses involved? Money making tricks.
This car's electronics aren't good. Speaking from experience.
Airbag malfunctions that the dealership can't fix, lighting issues, various other electric issues.
@@tds9058 ours is the same model year, 2012 B200 Exclusive trim. Bunch of failing electronics/shock absorbers.
Woman where are the vital statistics? Speed, consumption, braking distance, acceleration....?
That gal sittin on the wrong side of the car damn people God bless Merica
hi I have the car
9443873461
Fantastic car and pretty woman ;-) .
If this car would have a higher ground clearance it would had looked way better
I like Mercedes B-Class - Carbuyer
MB, BMW always around the bottom in reliability rankings.
Nikola Tesla it's a fact
+Nikola Tesla He knows exactly what he's talking about. They are crap cars.
Zla tan Are you seriously calling me childish when you're also calling people names?
On a side note, most of the people who drive luxury cars are leasing them, so they don't experience many problems in their limited 3 year term. And if you wonder why luxury cars have more problems than regular ones, it's basically due to gadgetry. The interior of a S550 has 300 LEDs, yes, 300.
How much is it then? Lol xx
Shes so judgemental. More Matt pls
Is she driving in heels? Isn't it dangerous?
+Paweł Dembski Why would driving in heels be dangerous, LOL?
Bacause you have worse reaction time in this type of shoes ;)
Paweł Dembski That makes no sense. The type of clothing/shoes you wear do not affect the speed at which your brain and spinal cord make decisions.
I really don't think this needs explaining...
Over engineered cars. Harder to fix and sky high repair costs.
is it a seven seater
جهنم
The merc looks horrible
What has happened to Mercedes quality? 1:30 A Golf has a better sounding door thud than that.
Round Trip Umm know, it means it is a well built car. Volkswagen are well built in many other ways, but forged steel door hinges, quality catches and locks, good rubber seals and laser seem welding contributes as to why VW have a distinctive door thud that no other manufacture can match.
Nice legs
EAT something please women
Pls wear nicer clothes like leather to look rugged. U ppl r in entertainment, learn to sell ur self... if u cant look good, u dont sell...
Yet another horrible colour. It looks its been primed and awaiting a paint job. I hate the wheels as they look ridiculous. It does nothing for me I'm afraid. The cup holder for rear passengers didn't swing the deal either!
blue color looks the best on this car
What the hell this car looks terrible
Who the hell would to buy it Mercedes your not good at everything
I own one. How does that look terrible? Atleast the front looks good, but the back is ok-ish.
I love it and have one. Roomy, comfortable, economical and reliable. Perfect.
@@EarthMagicBrno I also have one and totally agree. More spacious and practical than many so called SUVs in the market.. hate the SUV hype.
An AMG B-class... HAHAHAHA
+reapertheunique AMG A-class exists as well, and it looks pretty decent. Nice hot hatch.
+WuWei Xu OK, an A class, but a B? That is just too funny.
reapertheunique I'm pretty sure Mercedes makes an AMG version for all of their vehicles, no matter how weird it may be. I'll let this one slide LOL.
Hideous car.
MS Still more desirable than you
nazhif1 wHOOOOOoooOooooOoo rEKKKKKtteddd
nazhif1 Only by badge snob dummies.
nazhif1 That wasnt very nice. Wait here, im telling my mom.
MS I agree mercedes CANNOT make hatchbacks holy crap. Are those 14s too?? shocking
What's wrong with her knees? They seem to bend inward. Was she in grotesque car accident that caused that? Poor her 😞
this car is for granny's, A young person would buy a bmw 3 serie instead of this piece of ''junk''
Its far from junk its a benz dont fotget that its far from a granny car
Keisha Cole actually most of the people who buy it (or at least the last model) were grannys, such as my gran
FUMSUPX1000 dont bloody think so
it is a car for a family you dumb. Go drive your Punto or whatever shit
ClynthSync fuck off
im glad we dont get this car in the US, its ugly lol
+Ernesto Ortega R It exists in Canada, so I bet it exists in the US as well. As usual, North Americans like big cars, therefore only a select few purchase this.
+WuWei Xu but this car is pretty big
this car is for rich people
The gaming channel 89 hahhahaah decent enough price 😅
Not really
And Mercedes is zero for reliability as the quality has gradually diminished, crap cars when it comes to reliability. It’s the badge and living on their past glory, newer cars are crap.
Did she really wet herself @4:55 ?
no
Looks horrible
myname sabeermohammed I'm Ower the car
Never gonna buy a German car.
A review for the clueless people, but with money. The chick knows nothing about cars but with an educated accent passes for a pundit.
Rebbeca talks like a girlfriend
Ginny Buckely talks like a mom
