“The Mercedes C-Class estate is good looking - arguably more so than its two main rivals - with a swish exterior and has the usual Mercedes qualities of excellent build quality and a luxurious cabin."

This guy should get a tv show!! im telling you! one day mat is getting his own tvshow where he reviews cars!!

[@pauljackson112]

Well, you called it 😂

[@clubbizarre]

Lmao he did ​@pauljackson112

[@clubbizarre]

2:28 I've owned a c63 for 3 years now and DID NOT know this!!!!! Thanks mat from Carwow !!!

[@joakimpersson3479]

Who put the digital photo frame on the top of the dash?

[@NikesZ28]

Hate this power boot lid trend, how lazy can a person be, its much faster to open it by hand and not exactly hard ether.

[@senseiqhi]

You're not the only one. Hate it too it takes so long to open. It would be nice to have a manual handle as well as one to open electrically

[@senseiqhi]

***** I think that only cars with heavy tailgates should get an electronic tailgate, otherwise it's quicker by about 9 seconds to open manually

[@danecroft21]

The idea is to open it with the key fob as you are walking towards the car, and then close press the button and start your way into the car. Once you are at your door. The boot is closed.

[@Keisha7612]

danecroft21 yeah

[@ahqhue]

NikesZ28 It's meant for people with bags of shopping in each hand and then be able to wave their feet under the rear.

[@Baladibt]

Judging by Matt's key points, the average car buyer has - 4 friends that he always carries with - a dog - skis - very heavy groceries - buys dressers from IKEA on a weekly basis - drinks 2l of water on each journey

[@fredrikmelin1490]

Baladibt its a family car

[@frostyceas7516]

Baladibt a dog (labrador) 😂😂😂

[@bdeom1427]

+Baladibt Dude, the review is focused on several types of car buyers

[@redbaronlast]

Thats about right my standard usage :D (if you change friends with family members, most often)

[@a_single_white_female]

As an owner of four Labradors, I have now found the perfect car for me!

[@carbuyer]

a single white female One metric Labrador is the universal measurement for boot space in estate cars!

[@srbmckenzie]

Carbuyer Is it an average 'fat UK Labrador' or a normal weighted labrador? Or some sort of average?

[@gonnabeok]

Mat, will you be a replacement for Jeremy Clarkson in Top Gear show?... :)

[@anuksalgado2945]

Love mat but fuck off ....no one replaces jennifer

[@c3vzn]

Too similar to Hammond in personality. The trio worked because of their contrasts.

[@63Jax]

Anuk salgado i think you are aware that it was Jeniffer fault that Top Gear was canceled! stop defending her/him!!!

[@anuksalgado2945]

***** Jennifer is clarkson.. Whu is a man....

[@63Jax]

Anuk salgadoi know, i know!

[@robykaiac]

I think it's a good ideea to present the EuroNCAP safety ratings of the cars in the reviews.

[@BM_PAZ]

Robert-Cristian Avadanei Are there still cars out there that don't make the full rating these days? I'd be quite confident a Mercedes Benz would be 5 stars.

[@q3b26]

ian7675 the new Audi TT got a 4 star rating...

[@robykaiac]

I was surprised to see that Jeep and Audi and posible others premium brands curently have models with a 4 star rating at EuroNCAP.

[@q3b26]

Robert-Cristian Avadanei To get a 5 star rating now you have to have automatic braking, collision warning, blind spot monitoring etc. If they're not available as an option then the rating is lowered, it doesn't necessarily mean the 2015 TT will fair worse in a crash than a 2012 Ford Fiesta just because the rating is one star lower.

[@robykaiac]

For example Fiat Bravo 2007 does not have auto braking. And it got 5 stars. The same with Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2010, Hyundai i30 2012 and many, many others.

[@theyruinedyoutubeagain]

This looks like the least offensive Merc yet. Cracking little family car.

[@theyruinedyoutubeagain]

carbuyer.co.uk/videos They post there first :)

[@lovedefeatsus]

thanks for teaching me what those rails were for. I own this car for 5 years and i didnt know :O

[@Rorycarguy]

now I know its designed for labradors but is there a specific Husky version or am I out of luck....

[@ianburgess1436]

Get a Volvo for your husky.

[@jiltonik]

@@ianburgess1436 huskies fit best in ladas estates.lol

[@rw3175]

How do you know someone has a husky ? They tell you

[@mikipasikowski9250]

I have a 1999 c class estate and it also has the lean back seat net feature, its cool but merc have had it 17 years ago

[@FretFreak02]

I absolutely love the interior. Daring from Mercedes, and I appreciate that from them. I really think it's better looking than the E-class.

[@nemanjareljic]

My unlike is about the car it self rather then presentation witch is great. Good job mate.

[@Andy-we9fe]

I was looking for a car wow video for this for adges

[@PLIDD]

Young Matt😂

[@samlj6966]

I think car buyer should just sack every other employee they have and keep this guy he just sells every car and is really entertaining makes me want to keep on watching all the rest just make me want to fall asleep!

[@osamaFXX]

Best in its class.

[@SaturdayCarFever]

I agree :) IMHO, W205 sedan looks better but estate is more practical.

[@SaturdayCarFever]

***** Don't take this 4-cyl. Diesel! It's loud, and unpleasant on idle and low speeds. Take petrol engine like I did. You won't regret it :)

[@JurgenDX]

Only if you're talking about the BMW 3 series.

[@lewyn4k]

Looks like a mini CLS Shooting Brake in a way :3

[@NikesZ28]

There actually is a CLA shooting brake now.

[@Laguber]

This is a genuine proper review! I approve, good job Mat!

[@buddyshergill5903]

Does Mat or anyone know if the fold-down seat/parcel shelf and net thing is a feature with bmw 3 series touring?

[@MaximilianvonPinneberg]

If this was the Passat, Matt would be saying how fabulous it is. This, by the way Matt, is smaller than the Passat. Attachable cargo bar/net with the seats down is really clever. Stops your luggage flying forward in an accident.

[@batmikipig]

No offset wheel this time? How it sond the Burmheister?

[@LRS905]

Damn, I try hard but can´t seem to like this new C Class, I hate how everyone goes the Audi way, where every car seems like a scaled down version of the flagship. I loved the fact that my 2008 C Class seems a totally different and distinguishable vehicle from the E and the S, but now they all look like smaller S Class cars.

[@maxhi88]

Is the 250 cdi smoother/quieter than the 220 cdi ?

[@simpsons790]

someone get this man a Labrador

[@SyndicateBrink]

Did you leave your wardrobe aswell when you left Carbuyer? Cuz that attire, it’s very very familiar. Very

[@xDRAN0x]

As usual, not offered in Canada right?

[@ufotube4488]

Matt should definitely be on top gear

[@jagger2001]

Whoa, it's baby Mat! Still with the water bottles 😅

[@keithwatson1384]

You should do a review on the 2015 bmw 1 series

[@marinoint]

Excellent review, thank you very much!

[@eyalschnider]

is it with renault engine?

[@alimalik56]

Best car ever

[@VJ-zs1vc]

The Trunk Cover + Netz thing Can my Audi A4 B7 too Woow Benz get own idea xP

[@volvocars5189]

You've got the same cargo net funcionallity in any given Volvo estate as well. :)

[@BM_PAZ]

VolvoCars Wouldn't surprise me if Volvo pioneered that feature.

[@ottodob]

MBtex sure has come a long way. Its so obviously vinyl in my W203

[@simhan1237]

Can you test the new peugeot 508?

[@msra6cf2]

Why am I so poor that I can't even afford a Corsa :( . Work so hard yet no savings

[@iantownsend5480]

This car estate or saloon looks great

[@volundrfrey896]

those side windows... make the glass follow the roof line. It looks cheap; like they've just added a bit on the top of the coupé to save money.

[@idancesport]

Haha, why does Mat emphasize his height? :) Seems Passat is better car according to the judges choosing it a car of the Year 2015? Were they blind? Even on this video, the C-klasse interior leather looks very high quality. I like this car.

[@craigthebrit1132]

excellent review Matt....

[@AristotelisMitsiou]

It seems then that the boot is the most interesting bit of the car!

[@nikoladechev]

Um... nothinng new since the 2001 w203 model... but I like it!

[@thorbjrnmadsen4984]

Nikola Dechev At least W205/S205 looks better than W203/S203 C-Class in my opinions

[@GultekinCOSAR]

Thank You for this video. I will subscribe to Your Channel And also let me comment one point at this video , You mentioned that The back seats are comfortable Whereas ; Your head was about to touch the ceiling of the car. You must lean back to the seat than You may be in comfort. And I notice In todays cars When You sit back of the car. Your head is nearly touch or hit onto the ceiling of the car. I like generally the High ceiling cars.

[@Ioanides001]

I really like this car but I don't have any Labradors, unfortunately :/

[@SaturdayCarFever]

*64,2 MGP according to the manufacturer numbers. 42,1 MPG in real life* :D I like it, when Matt is doing this basic average fuel consumption test, going 60-70 MPH. This is what I missed the most in the past Carbuyer vidoes. I own 2.0T petrol and I'm more than happy :)

[@Schekktitan]

Wow, he said 179 cm. Just wow

[@Personal_Comp]

It's only 20kg heavier than the 3 series, but you feel the extra weight immediately??? You mist be a very sensitive guy ;)

[@jamiep61]

I like Mercedes C-Class estate - Carbuyer

[@BrayanGMadrid]

Mat is the best

[@jonnyroberts5545]

why would you not put all your videos unlocked on your channel. if you want people to use your site make it better to use

[@willohanlon]

Nice to see they copied the handy folding box from Volvo. One came with my V70R in 2001 and also that net is not meant for dogs, is is there to stop stuff in the back falling forward into the passenger compartment under heavy braking or an accident.

[@tomasdoubek]

This is copied from LIDL grocery stores ....

[@willohanlon]

+Tomáš Doubek really when did they have it first?

[@tomasdoubek]

Will oHanlon Rly dunno ... it is just a basket worth like 5 euro

[@willohanlon]

+Tomáš Doubek it was early '80's that Volvo first done the box in their cars. Either way it is very handy to have when needed.

[@MrXispas]

The basket is for you sit waitting for the tyre repair van....I have a c class and i dind't get the thing...Hope never to flat....

[@Danielisak]

Estate Benz's are beautiful at the front but are like hearses at the back

[@KsanaKsini]

Hahahaha.. best review of your channel yet. Loving the Labradors. XD

[@sidneyhillaryw5121]

i never knew there was a c class estate

[@CZARNYEU]

Great Car

[@dcuzhang]

179cm!!!!?? not 5 foot 11 and half and .0005 .........

[@SaturdayCarFever]

He switched to cm recently :D

[@jsponson]

Did Matt do his math correctly? I thought he was taller than 5'10.5"...

[@SaturdayCarFever]

jsponson He is exactly 5'10" and a half :) so not the tallest reviewer ever :D

[@tombeech9920]

Love you long time Mat!

[@I-Love-Taylor-Swift]

Doc, we don't have enough road to get up to 88…. Roads? Where we're going, we don't need .. roads]

[@2pong2]

So those real nice leather looking interiors nowadays compared with the models from say 2007 Are due to the fact that they're faux leather???

[@alanrap1872]

its 2024 and i buyed the same car in black because i watched this video

[@Gunslinger800]

I'm struggling between this car and the Audi A4...

[@rahimhassan9361]

Gunslinger800 I have audi a4 and switching to this but saloon

[@c-apsl-ock]

I lovve you watson for real

[@LRS905]

Hey Mat, be careful with that basket. Knowing about Mercedes accesories´ prices, I bet that costs about 100 US$, lol

[@brianworkman4253]

the Mercedes is much nicer looking then the Audi or BMW inside and out

[@2sweet2handle28]

StereotypedFilms true

[@damianvonschneider452]

Lablador is the star :)

[@ParFektion]

Mercedes-Benz the best or nothing. Enough said.

[@greaney123]

Snobbery

[@DK07x]

Angus MacGyver Aston Martin the best or nothing. Enough said.

[@greaney123]

DAYM Now we're getting somewhere!

[@MrBodi1]

The Dacia Sandero is the best or nothing. Enough said.

[@bootayo]

nice 1

[@LifestyleCommando]

A collapsible box or a brummie rubix cube?

[@2sweet2handle28]

rubix cube

[@malasyu]

Light up the interior to see clearly, too dark

[@masonbonds1433]

OMG LIKE 95% OF CARS HAVE A LARGE TRANSMISSION TUNNEL IN THE BACK SEAT!!! IDFK WHY YOU HAVE TO POINT IT OUT IN EVERY REVIEW! like it's not a down side if every car has one!

[@thorbjrnmadsen4984]

Mason Bonds Some cars don't have a large transmissions on the floor. The current Volkswagen Touran doesn't even have a transmissions on the floor.

[@michaelheeheejackson7255]

you're only a bit taller than Richard Hammond...

[@adamdesii09]

Clearly been designed for Labradors

[@ayushdubey5741]

Cool

[@valdius85]

No load lip makes items fall out of the trunk and it makes the vehicle harder to design. It does not make as much sense in my world as it does in yours.

[@JohnDoe-th1qn]

I get more MPG out of my 12 year old 2.0d Jaguar X-Type Sport estate. Averaging 48mpg. New engine vs old? No contest. These manufacturers need to get a fucking grip and start designing more efficient engines.

[@TheJoeMB]

I just love Merc wagons

[@tamilpride321]

quality car

[@harryc266]

Just get a cls! You can get a perfect one for the price

[@tofsen12345]

Nice taxi lol

[@pablomanc]

faux leather in a car starting at £27k?! oops

[@edwardnr17]

Looks like lots of hard plastic on dash

[@156688547]

Hey! I Have always wondered who would buy an estate car, and I will never understand it. They're ugly, they're big and uncomfortable

[@cars_and_coffee_by_bruno]

I love how estates look.

[@MidLoafCrisis]

Silly man, anyone who knows their cars agrees that SUV's aren't better than estates, for anything apart from people who have hip injuries and can't bend

[@scoopermg8226]

I don't this constant German wankathon on car reviews. Take away 'image' and they are overpriced BS.

[@greaney123]

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who can see this :)

[@srbmckenzie]

It's a bit, well, err, hideous.... then again it's based on the normal C-Class which was also hideous.

[@soultanasmaga9661]

Eyrhrhhrhe

[@ianburgess1436]

Anyone else really irritated by Matt? Loves the sound of his own and is singularly uninformative. How new was this car when he drov e it? if it was a diesel the engine needs time to bed in (anyone who has a diesel from new will know this). I found the video kept on stopping which was another irritation.

[@ajnut]

It wouldn't be a very good review if he didn't say anything.

[@SLR-722]

cramped, cramped, cramped

[@yamahass66]

All fake and plastic? Nice..

[@Mr11ESSE111]

i will rather buy 1 - 2 year old BMW series 5 or even Mercedes E class or Audi A6 with 30000-50000km and maximum luxury equipment and save 10 000+ euro than this overpriced junk who is lower class of vehicle but to expensive

[@yamahass66]

Made in china?

[@minibus1351]

dogs dogs dogs

[@DRAGONIKification]

My Mercedes is piece of shit!

[@toddy505]

179 cm tall !!! haha,what the hell does that mean ? I thought this was a British show ? Let's face it guys the vast majority of your viewers will be Brits or Americans so cut out the Euro nonsense..

[@MaximilianvonPinneberg]

Thought the UK went metric in 74?

[@toddy505]

Well you thought wrong mate,maybe you are thinking of decimalisation in 1971,my daughter was born in the UK in 1990 and states her height in feet and inches and her weight in stones and pounds as does all her generation,she wouldn't have a clue what height she was in centimetres,she is 23 and that was my point..

[@MaximilianvonPinneberg]

ALLAN TODD The Uk adopted the metric system shortly after joining the EEC. Whether people decide to us it between then and 1995 when it became compulsory is entirely a different midwife.

[@duckman5642]

wheres Rebecca?!!! not watching this! sorry

[@uruszurich5910]

rebbeca is gone she will be replaced by a girl named grimmy brimley

[@AnishGaming655]
