I had the 250d premium plus with the night pack the same as this one and if it had not been stolen off my drive earlier this year I would still be happy to own it, Had it 4 years and 60k miles and it never missed a beat, Bought a C class estate for the short term to replace but I am looking for another GLC as so practical and comfy,

Is it worth paying extra for 2019+ models? Whats the main differences compared to the car in the video
@car_babbleАй бұрын
I would say it depends on your priorities. If you care about more modern tech and infotainment then possibly. If you don't, you'll save a lot of money on the pre-facelift.

how does this compare to the 2016 MB GLC 2.1 GLC 250d 4Matic AMG Line Prem Plus 9G-Tronic COUPE

Sorry I have not driven that one to compare but suspect the differences are not significant.

Great and honest review, thanks for sharing your insights. I bought 250d amg line premium plus a few months ago and must say it’s still a great and up to date car. What I truly hate is engine sound… damn… sounds like old ford vans 😂 I owned 2016 audi a6 and it was way better.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah it's a good car for the most part but they need to work on the refinement!

Got the 220d GLC AMG same as this, slightly less engine power. Honest view from me. Great car, love it. Don't find the 220d underpowered at all, plenty of power and torque (more than enough than I need and I've owned an SLK), no problem overtaking. Good fuel economy as well, nearly 50mpg if careful and on eco setting. Engines are a bit noisy at idle compared to say BMW, but not really an issue. As you say fine when on the move. Suspension a good mix of smooth but firm, much better suspension than X3, which is a bone shaker (took one back and went for GLC instead). I've had a few Mercs and found them reliable but I have had a problem with the GLC people should be aware of on the diesels. They get the dreaded Adblue problem every few months, where it says there's no Adblue in but it's full, then it says it will switch the engine off at the end of 400 miles (everything works fine but its set up to switch off if Euro6 not complied with). It's been back to garage on warranty for repairs but that lasted only 2 months and the dreaded nessage has just re-appeared. I've googled fixes and it appears it can be sorted but garage's seem to get locked in a loop of trying to fix them if not done properly. So great car, ticks all my boxes but could someone give in trying to live with this Adblue glitch?
@car_babble3 ай бұрын
Really appreciate you taking the time to give me such detailed feedback. Bit of a shocker on the Adblue though! Silly things like that can undermine everything good about a car.
@mattwright29643 ай бұрын
@@car_babble yeah it's a real pity. Still love the car and under warranty but if they don't solve the adblue glitch you have to wonder what to do.

i just inherited a 2017 one of these with 32,000 km on it ,i love it and agree with you on the spongy brakes and the noise when it ticks over is louder than my fiat van! but very silent when driving but other than that its a super motor ,im not sure yet will i keep it as i have an old van i use for getting around ,but damm its a nice car, although mercedes tell me its due a gearbox service and general service and im a little worried it will cost me my left arm! to keep on the road !!

Just take it to an independent mate. You'll save a fortune on the service. That's unless you've got an extended warranty?

f pace does have a bigger boot and may have better handling , but as it will be in a land rover garage for most of the time you own it , due to the amount of the time its not working , just buy a Mercedes and now you have a bit of class.
