I've pretty much given up on other car review sites as the majority are obsessed with car porn, reviewing £100K+ cars that the vast majority will never drive. Your approach is more akin to the Readers Wives section of a jazz mag in that it features cars I actually have a chance of riding one day. Congratulations on reaching 100K subscribers.
Tea shot out my nose laughing at that comment!
Have a like, you legend!!👍😂
😂😂
I totally agree, all rich daddies boys trying to live the dream with huge pcp payments! Then it bites them in the buttocks on the final balloon payment lol
Thank you
@@dustingofthedecks nah, the rich daddy boys drive daddy's car or they get one for their 18th birthday...
'Gardening in their attic' 😂😆😆😂
While banging out some Urban shite from their A-Class faux AMG insured in their parents name...Believe I've done insurance quotes for them...£25,000?
@@antonycharnock2993 "urban" shite :)) lmao where are the times when we called it "rap music"
The one liners by Matt on this one as as sharp as a laser #onpoint 😂
took me a second...
@@twfy861 razor even
I love the styling both inside and out; funky and fresh and I think it's a car with real presence. I really like the CLA.
Agreed. Always been saying it's the best looking "obtainable" car in ages.
@@basstrammel1322 I doub't I will ever obtain one. Shame really.
The droopy rear is for aerodynamics and fuel efficiency. It's been Mercedes' design language for their sedans since the W205 C class
Love the way you review cars that normal people can afford. 👍🏻
PLEASE. NEVER change :)
Smooth fm is the thinking man’s radio station
Under rated car show great content
I see no lie
Many congrats on reaching 100k mark , showing 101k on the video now, well deserved as your content is always well thought out and a wide range of cars that normal people would want . Keep honing that sense of humour !
With your sense of humour you could sell me anything while I was laughing my socks off 😂
Haha cheers
I share your videos with everyone. They are absolutely brilliant mate, even my mum who has no interest in cars likes your videos as they are so funny and honest.
Thank you Matt, big fun and on point review 👍
What beautiful landscape with cool clouds 😎
I really hooked by his way of explaining cars.
Matt - great commentary as always - truly funny yet informative.
Congratulations on 100k subscribers Mat, thoroughly deserved, absolutely the best channel out there .........
Keep it up mate 👍👍👍
Hey Matt, I'm an OG subscriber. You actually commented on one of my videos 2 years ago. Congrats on 100k subscribers.
Thank you
Loving the content mate, keep up the great work, thank you 😊
This is the most beautiful car i have ever seen. And i just got one 2 weeks ago. And i still cant believe it. I love it so much!
Without doubt the channel to go to if your thinking of buying a new used car .
Another great video, love your funny analogies 🤣
I have my own view on those dash screens, personally I think they look like a tablet that's been won out of one of those stacker machines in the motorway services, then stuck to the dash with blue tac 😀
Congrats on the 101k subs Matt - well deserved. Well done to the other 100,999 people with class
Thanks
Congratulations on 100k genuinely exited for what you are going to do with this channel keep up what your doing matt!
Thank you
I'm an owner of the shooting brake version and I managed to fit a double bed from IKEA in it with the passenger seat pushed to its max forward position. It's so practical whilst looking far more stylish than other estates. It gets a lot of slack for being a confusing target audience, but for me as a single person who needed a big car for loading things, and not wanting to look too much of a grandma, it's really gorgeous. Look out for the night pack versions with nice alloys, makes them look a lot faster then they are. To drive, 220d is just purely polite, it'll do what you ask in a controller manner. It's not exciting, but it can more than do the job you need. Brilliant car, but I might get a sports car instead now that my practical needs are diminishing :D
Really enjoy your videos and the different types of cars featured
excellent review as always, looking forward to many more
Another great video Matt. I agree, the rear lights look like Dame Edna Everidge’s glasses.
Well done on 100k subs, well deserved, love all the videos
Again, loving the cheeky AP reference, keep up the good work! Java! 💪
You definitely deserve 100k Matt!
Had one of these, kept it 8 months before swapping back to an E class. Hated the way it drove. Loved the look of it inside and out though which was what caught my attention initially.
100k nice one mate, well deserved 👏👏
‘A magpie’s wet dream’ 😂
I do like this car, the only thing I don't like is the i-pad stuck to the dash, but I would probably get used to it over time.
Another great review Matt, thank you. 👍
Congratulations on hitting 100,000, you deserve it! Onwards and upwards.
Thanks
Well Done on the 100k Matt, love your style.
Hey mat ,congratulations on the holy grail of 100k .another great vid .👍🏆
Thanks
Your videos are great mate, much appreciated!
Would you consider adding a few key specs to the vid descriptions?
It would make finding something within in a price/power range a lot easier, for example.
Cheers!
Well done Matt 100k is a massive achievement,you deserve it keep it up love your frankness but subtle way you explain things,I'm glad the men in blue pulled you over,they might learn something 😂😂🚙👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love another partridge reference Carol. Keep it up
The comment about gardening in your attic was the min I knew I needed to subscribe. Fantastic and relatable review
Haha thank you. Welcome to the channel
Congrats on 100 thousand subscribers
Gardening in your attic brilliant that car is stunning love the video mate 😂😂😂😂
I’m loving these reviews, entertainment value 10/10
Thanks for watching
Good stuff. No shouty music. Great video. You know what I like about your vids as opposed to others, it's like I'm just sat in the passenger seat having a chat. Keep it up :-)
Omg that FM DAB combined setup would drive me mad....defo the sort of thing you might not find on a test drive, only when you land home with the car.
Wow you actually pretty good..your delivery is crisp..with satire. Subbed
Your metaphors are brilliant!
Entertaining as always Matt! Thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. Keep it up 👍🏼
keep it up man 🔥🔥🔥
100k subs well deserved!!
Congrats on the 100k subs Matt! Well deserved!
Thanks
Great video as always. You're going to get some stick for Smooth FM 😉
Shooting Brake looks much better in my mind and it's a lot more practical.
Congrats on the 100k!
Another great vid mate please do a review on a BMW 6 series gran coupe.
Big congratulations Matt on 100,000. Great channel - Big fan.
Thanks
Huge congrats and deserved 100k subs
Another good review Matt. I do believe it's time you started to sell your brand with High Peak Autos t shirts and car accessories. I would certainly ditch my merc number plates for yours.
Congrats on the 100K subscribers.
Rylan is advertising on your channel for the new 14 day money back used cars you hate. :P
Oh yeah Cinch
Yeah I’m really fed up with the one where the guy didn’t get the snip
Congrats on the 100k! Keep them coming 🎉
Thanks
Good honest review, as ever 😁
Chav mobile requires white tracksuit and gold chain
Brilliant as always matt. I would like to see a review of the mercedes c class saloon, w205, from 2014 to 2020, I think these are the best compact saloon. Most are the 2,1 diesel, auto, AMG line premium plus are great spec I owned one 12 months the interiors are equal to audi and bmw, regards Mark
you got all these great 2nd hand car review..loving it yo 🔥
Thanks for watching
Another good video Matt. 👌
"That grill is like a magpies wet dream!" hands down best one liner in a car review I've heard to date!!! #subscribed :)
Thanks for the sub!
Just found this channel sir and I am consuming your vids at an alarming rate!
Great content sir
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching
love your videos, would it be possible to give us your opinion on for whom the car that you are showing is aimed towards ... midlife crisis , people who want something reliable , slow but cheap and so on . Thank you for the video, once again- love your videos as they are
Thanks Matt!!! The verdict is BUY IT!
100k quality Matt keep going love your channel I treated my self. To a boxster S because of your review
Nice!!
Great video matt
Congrats on the 100k , great to be on of them !!!👏👏
Thanks!
The new Matt Watson!
Lovely machine, keep up on the great work.
I like the CLA, estate version is a bit mad looking and is my fav.
Congratulations on 100k subs 👏
Great channel and keep up the good work 👍 👏
Thanks
i really emjoy your presentation style, thanx
Just bought a 2015 cla220 and I love it.... Especially because my car before this was an Audi q7....
Thanks for the vid man having been toying with the idea of changing my 4 series for a CLA found the review most informative...which at the end of the day is what most people want, your excellent humorous anecdotes are the icing on the cake.Smooth FM you are right their play list is hideously bad !
I’d keep the 4 series. I hated the way the cla drove whereas the 4 series is a proper drivers car
Did you ever decide to go for it? I currently have a 4 series and due to budget changes was thinking of doing the same
Havent changed yet going to view a Alfa Romeo Giulia tomorrow as it happens 😁
Test drove a 2016 CLA220d (non AMG) in yearly 2020 before the lockdown and it was a really nice drive. My brother chose the backseat he is 5'9" and he was fine for the short trip. The auto gearbox was a bit weird when pulling away from a traffic light but once you get going it's a comfy drive
Congratulations on your 100k subscribers great channel you deserve it
Thank you very much!
There is an A-Class Saloon/Sedan. I've not seen many but they are produced. The CLA is more a 4 door coupe style version of the A-Class.
Oh and I love the looks of the CLA including the rear.
15 minutes after watching this I saw an A-Class being pulled over by the Police.
Love the channel/reviews, keep it up.
Great news on the 100k subs and well deserved ...
Thanks
Congratulations on the huge number of subscribers . The BBC will be knocking at the door to offer you a slot next. In respect of this video, I've just driven a CLA 220D, ( since Thursday) for the past weekend. My 2012 C class auto, petrol, went in for inspection and now needs a new engine; at 61k. Unbelievable. The new 2023 CLA, amazed me in its frugality and delivered 64mpg on the run; from the Premier Inn, at the QE2 Dartford crossing to North Wales. This was driving at the speed limit of course and in comfort. I did find all the dials a bit of a distraction and had my wife act as Co Pilot in this car which I renamed the Delta Flyer. It only has just over 3,000 miles registered and it has change my mind about Diesel cars.
Not sure what will happen with the C class.
Much better than your last video.
Great vid entertaining and informative
Cheers
Congrats to 100K!
Thanks
the dab thing is done way better in newer models (I drive a 2020 A class) where you can scroll through fm channels and if a DAB alternative is available it'll automatically grab that. Conversely if the car loses the DAB signal it will automatically and (usually) seamlessly switch over to the FM signal if it exists.
Your description of this car is bang on, my gripe it is that’s it’s too small on the inside...
Well done Matt 100k subs! 👍
Thanks
Congratulations on 100k subs
New subscriber: love your expertise + advice and off course the 1 liners 😂
Thank you!
Congratulations dude, cracking channel.
Magpies wet dream 🤣🤣
Thanks
Love the partridge reference! Spot on!
Ahhh haaaaaaa!!
Congratulations on 100 000 subscribers Matt!
Thanks
Great vid as usual..........congrats on the 100k..........soon be 250k !
Fingers crossed!
I like this guys analogies
Another excellent video buddy, not a big fan of the cla but it's still nice
I looked into getting one of these for myself. I’m a big guy standing at 6’2” and could just barely fit through the door opening and into to driver’s seat. I may have been “ok” if I held my breath! The back seat was a lost cause! However, it did look nice.
Another very enjoyable review.
Thanks again!
Re the digital radio, my workmate has one of these he got for his wife which he drives to work sometimes. He has this local side hustle where he activates CarPlay/Android Auto on certain 2015-16 Mercs - including the CLA - with this USB key type thing he got off eBay. You can then use the RadioPlayer app on that as well as all the other stuff (Spotify/Apple Music, Google Maps, Waze etc). 5 minute job if someone does it in your area, shouldn’t be more than £25 quid unless they’re really profiteering.
