Great video! Although you should’ve given more info on the 2013-2015 model for people who’re looking forward to get a glk 350 as there’s so much difference in the 2013-2015 not just the facelift. The interior is completely different including the gear stick which is on the steering and also the 2013-2015 models comes with a direct fuel injection M276 engine while the previous models(The one on this video) comes with a Port injection m272 engine.
Guy you fall my hand o, you forget to mention one of the biggest problems. Why you no go mention the POLICE problem? Police dey stop GLK drivers no be small. That one na the real problem were dey drain man pocket.😂
Glk was made between 2010 and 2015. First sold in 2009. You said this is 2008? Also you said the infotainment of 2020 and up is better but they stopped making the car in 2015. Please correct or update the review. Thanks
The fuel line issue is because the car is designed for fuel with 91 octane rating or higher but there is only one grade of petrol in nigeria. 87 octane grade
Hey nice review. What year wouldnyou advise to get and in comparism wity the CLA flr a first time luxury car owner. I am in a country with good road network in Africa Also it you have a better option, i am looking for looks and reliable. I only like cla coz of its looks n sporty shape
Yeah...but watch the concluding part of the video to check what must be in place. E-mail us : 234drive@gmail.com for more pro tips on buying the Nigerian Used GLK
Interesting car documentary 234 but I disagree with one thing, there are 2 trims not one. There is the GLK 250 Bluetec turbo4 diesel and the GLK 350 V6
I m a fan of your channel by the way. I love the way you relate all the cars you feature with the reality of owning and maintaining those cars in Nigeria
Would have liked, but saying GLK has 2008 model made me feel disappointed. Bcus glk started from 2010. There’s nothing like glk 2008. Secondly steering pump is not up to 100k, even with the workmanship, transportation, oil etc you still won’t spend up to 100k. Yea glk is rugged on off road, but not all. Only 2010 to 2012 can comfortably pass through water and sand with ease, but 2013 to 2015 will make u spend 650k in getting a new steering rack when you pass through water, 2013 to 2015 are not rugged as 2010 to 2012, u can’t even drive them in sandy areas Thirdly there is nothing like glk 2020 pls Glk ended in 2015 Glk is from 2010 to 2015 2010 to 2012 have the same features and horsepower but different from 2013 to 2015 which have higher horsepower and better designs So pls get your facts right next time when make any video about Benz don’t disrespect Benz by giving false information about it next time
Good review as always Crank. I got a feedback one time from a tall person who complained that the front passenger seat space is tight even with the seat fully reclined. I can't confirm it because I have not been in one. Also, what is your opinion on other utilities e.g. the trunk. Do you think it is small? Perhaps smaller than a honda CRV?
The Trunk is definitely smaller than that of a CRV but that’s what you should expect because it’s more on the luxury side. About the seat being a bit tight…for tall people it is.
If you’re tall , go for the ml350 … the GLK is quite not comfortable for tall people… if you’re like 6.5ft , your legs won’t be free and nobody will be able to sit behind you
The GLK is easier to drive and handle but if you have a need for a lot of interior room...go for the ML350. Are you planning on getting this car soon ?
I noticed that too, I thought of commenting bc I had to crank-up my volume level but still it wasn't at par with the previous video I watched before switching to this channel.
If you want to buy Acura MDX from 2008 upward , do your research but for me I will advise you to go and buy it before price goes up too much o, I drive Pilot and CR-V which I love how they drive and also their level of reliability. I'm buying my Acura MDX soon no turning back. Honda and Acura expert mechanic and parts sellers are located in Honda Mechanic Village Oyingbo, Lagos.
That one is not even a question self. The GLK over C300 any day. 1- The GLK is an all wheel drive 2- more comfortable 3- more reliable 4- faster 5- good ground clearance 6- Strong 7- A better off-roader 8- better handling 9- Good sound system I own one so I can definitely guarantee that the GLK is better. Been using mine for the past 3 years now, bought mine almost the same time with few people I know that owns C300, they have all sold their own because of issues. But mine is still gallant and runs smoothly 💯
I have a 2014 c300, it’s a very reliable car but the engine isn’t as strong as the 2009 c300, but it’s a sweet car generally, the interior is the best thing ever
From the sound of the engine at cold start…it will be so loud without a catalyst. The work in the car is to regulate the exhaust gases and allow the car burn less fuel…it also silences the sound of the engine
@@alextunealextune4389 Not really bro, just that it has a cheaper cost of maintenance, more spacious. But the GLK comes with a rugged built, stronger, faster, more luxurious, better handling
@@234drive yes it did there is a tiny rubber in the steering rack area that when it enters water it breaks and make the steering extremely hard . I stay at majek in SAngotedo I never take my glk 2013 in water it’s risky . It have happened 3 times . To buy that rubber is 30k the 2013 glk is not for water .
Crank i have sent countless messages on your Gmail and no reply, I as well want to find out if I can maintain a Mercedes-Benz c300 2008 or 2010 model with a salary of 70k per month
If you want to hate your life buy a GLC, you will be frustrated and end up selling it. This are my reasons 1- It comes with a turbocharged 2.0 litre four cylinder (V4) engine that produces 241 horsepower. While the GLK350 (2010-2012) comes with a 3.5 litre V6 engine that produces 268 horsepower. So the GLK engine is stronger and faster. 2- the GLK is faster than the GLC 3- The GLK is more reliable than the GLC 4- Cost of maintenance on the GLC is crazy 5- Not a good off-roader like the GLK 6- Not good for long distance trip 7- It doesn’t go near water 8- GLC comes with lots of Electrical issues Mercedes made a big mistake on this GLC. My friend owns one and he ended up selling it in less than 1 year. He even bought it directly from Dubai and you know Dubai cars are the best. GLC is not a good car, it is only Luxurious than the GLK, apart from that nothing else.
@@234drive for me as a tall guy, ml has a better head room. as a family man it holds a larger cargo space, is better for off-road bcos of the 4 wheel system, and though they have to same drivetrain warranty, but the ML is a better multipurpose SUV.
To me the GLK 350 looks like a sporty version of the 2001-2005 Toyota Highlander
Nice one. Please be posting more often. We need more Nigerian car reviewers like you. I can feel the upgrade in your picture as well. Nice👍
More to come! Thank you

Amazing. What about the 2013 Model Glk?
Same energy and even better because it is facelifted. Looks madder than this
Comes with a softer steering as well (electrical steering unlike the 2010-12 that comes with a power steering pump), more luxurious also

I love this car... It's gradually becoming a Nigerian citizen😅
Yea o, it’s going viral
Hahahaha JLK just call Benin boys
U nor know say GLK na benin dem born am. 😅😅
The GLK comes in the Bluetec technology GLK 220 diesel engine
It hurts my feelings when you turn the key and hold it 6:38 😭😭😭. Just give it a single turn it’ll get the engine running
You’re one of the few people I’ve come across that knows you don’t have to hold the key down. Just a single turn.
Do people actually hold their keys when starting? 😂
Omor I use to turn mine just once without holding it 😂
hey, the GLK and Honda CRV which is better for Naija?
They are both perfect but the CR-V is way cheaper to run...are you planning to buy one ?

@234 DRIVE well that's somewhat true bcos there very few diesel engine car experts
