And extra credit given for broken nail, dust floating by and horse licking paint, the Most Complete Car Review EVER !
LOL! When I was a teenager my Dad drove a 1980 280CE...while out flyfishing, we came back to a herd of cattle literally licking the paint off in patches...it's the road salts they were after.
Road salts? *bleh* .. Poor horse!
@@Trapper50cal yep tongues like sandpaper.
Gotta give Sara props matching color outfit
@TheSara200424 - agreed - hmm, this highly knowledgeable vehicle reviewer wears an outfit that matches the CLA250 color, sweet.
Always.
Also that incredible smile......framed with crimson lipstick!
I'm a sucker for that.
Quite a short skirt though.
Always on point
Like flying on a c130. As a former CH47 crew chief I completely appreciate your analogy. 😊
As a former 130 load, I dug it, too.
If you know, you know.😂
Thanks as always for doing such in-depth & amusing reviews for us 🙂 you’re just the greatest! ♥️
Sarah - My wife and I are both Air Force veterans and very much enjoy watching your channel. You have a wonderful work ethic which is very rare these days. Thank you for all of your hard work.
Lost it until I realized you said "No fake TIPS" 🤣
Great review.
At least I'm not the only one that "heard" that.
Love all of the graphics you're using! Another great review!
Thanks
12:50 - it's the hilarious little non-sequiturs that make Sarah's reviews so much fun!
Always love the bolstering check
I agree with you. I love dual clutch transmissions/gearboxes. I like that car also.
another great review! I lol'd when you put the graphics on the fake exhaust tips... you always add the best extras to your reviews. Thank you for all your hard work!
Those fake exhaust tips are a deal breaker, even at the price of the peasant model! Thanks for another outstanding video.
Yeah fake tips fake vents and interior speaker engine faking on so many cats its getting annoying!
Fake tips are there to stop the soot that builds up from DI engines, fake speaker noise is whack though.
@@mikehawk120 no exhaust out back then is my point haha
Thanks Sarah for pointing out the fake tips. The masses probably don't know or even care but us nerds know better.
@@Grimm-Gaming no exhaust? Makes no sense as there is an exhaust.
I like how it shifts out like a C-130 especially when you put the pedal to the floor and it drops down into passing gear really get them propeller spinning
First time I've ever heard something automotive being compared to a C-130. I LIKE IT!👍
Very much like riding in school busses made in the 70s.
@@sgtmtrush Ah, yes... No frills, few comforts. At least...we had seat belts. Wouldn't do to go flying around inside smacking into things... The C-130s I flew in were made in the 1960s, and they were better maintained than any school I ever rode in, though. Memories...
Love this car . Probably the best Merc for the money. The dct is a type of transmission most people don't understand. Excellent review, like always. Thanks Sarah.
I had a first gen GLA 45 AMG and aside from the fairly cheap interior and some rattles, the car was a total hoot to drive. I had the sports seats and exhaust which were well worth it. The handling was fantastic as was the drivetrain minus some of the DSG quirkiness. It's been the best I've owned for driving on twisty roads but a huge measure.
Sarah! Another great review. You have always been awesome, but you are really on point with this one. And as always, so lovely to look at and to listen to.
Another excellent review with the added bonus of two things I have missed from you reviews lately; the penguin managed to sneak it's way into the review and you are talking to animals again! Yay! 😉 Thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!
Thanks for another fun review Sarah!
Best views on all of TH-cam. Thanks for that!
I'm just here for the bolstering assessment. Best part of every review!
Phenomenal review thank you so much🍬🍡🍢
After my third viewing.
I heard a chuckle that sounded like Angel Robles.
Nail that solo Rookie Pilot!
I fully got the DSG/DCT/C130 analogy. Great review!
Fun review. I have a 2014 CLA back when the exhaust tips were real
love the new graphics in your video
Love the reviews--next level!
Got that notification bell set to All 💪🏻
Thanks Sarah!🌻🐧
Car wash mode also closes the air intake so you don't spray water in the cabin filter, also turns off sensitive touch things like fuel cap doors etc.....at least it does on other cars.
Thanks Sarah and algo's
The most thorough of reviews.
Car sure looks nice. Thanks for sharing.
I love your Reviews!
Thanks
The new additional graphics are pretty cool. Keep up moving up!
Fantastic review! Your in-depth analysis of the 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLA 250 is incredibly informative
I love the details
It's just a really well done video
Got my CLA 250 new in 2014, base price was only $29,900 back then! Inflation sucks! My sticker price was $47,352, fully loaded.
That coupled with what ever renault is charging Mercedes for that 4cyl engine. And the standard added tech for this model year makes it balance out...yes they're overcharging since it was introduced. But give it one year depreciation and it may be a solid buy.
I love that color of red!
I used to drive a Lada in that color. Best Lada color was orange. Second best was light blue. Dull men's shirt red is depressing.
Don't know why I've never noticed it but all the sound effects and on screen icons are very reminiscent of old PS2 menus. Nice.
Love your reviews and your channel! $61k for this is ridiculous. So many cars I would buy before this.
Sarah is excellent on car reviews... car companies need to take notice 😊
Smashing review. Really attractive car!
Thanks for this review. These are nice-looking cars.
Hi Sarah great review of the Mercedes it a fast car for being stock I love the new Mercedes thank for the awesome video you look fantastic . Enjoy your day don’t work too hard hard we all know you will 😊
Like how Mercedes is going after folks like Sarah,
rookie pilot is a great channel. thanks Sara😅
I was just thinking the other day how nice it would be if you reviewed a Benz on this platform! My mom drives a 2022 A250 4matic hatchback and there’s a severe lack of technical info out there. I agree with your assessment, fun handling, perfect size, and underrated. My mom’s was a dealer demo that was driven by a salesman for 6 months then sat for 6 months, we got it for 2/3rds the price of new, same price that GTI’s were going for at the time.
I love your smile when you appreciate the bolstering
Great content :)
I caught myself the other day doing a bolstering test in my Ram 1500 DT 😂🤣 dang you Sarah 🤣😂😂🤣🤣
As a former EC-130 and C-130 crew member, I approve this message.
Calling all USA Veterans, Sarah called out the C-130 reference.
Hi Sarah, I'm in the UK and love your videos, so professional 😎
The a/c condenser looks very vulnerable to stone/rock chip damage and I can't believe mercedes hid the heated wheel button like that 🤭
Hey Sarah…I hope you are doing great….thanks for all the awesome content you provide….could you please make a video on the vw gli comparing it to the gti justifying the price gap that the 2 models have
love that "don't mind my broken nail, I work for a living"
I'm not really a Mercedes fan, but this one is nice.
Great video
Sarah loves red cars. ♥️
It's all about that Bass bout that Bass bout that Bass!!👽
No to fake exhausts tips and no to fake exhaust sounds!
I love duel clutch transmissions
All hail the bolster check.... wish I was a seat belt..😂 love this channel ❤️
Can you update the car ratings on your website? Specifically add the wrench scores. Thank you so much for being the only youtuber I know who gives maintenance assessment scores on new cars!
And now I can't unsee the mosquito face 😂😂😂 Thanks for the review, I enjoyed it
Loving the penguin content ! Can we add some puffins please Sarah?
CLA is a great entry level car for the MB buyer.
that bluetooth exhaust tip :)
nice vid. in europe the base model is the CLA 180. this has a 1300 cc renault turbo engine. The 1991cc in the 250 models (incl A class, CLA, GLA ,GLB) is a real mercedes enigine.
It is 12:34 o’clock as I watch this.
Most of the time I was in a C130 I jumped out of it. 82 Airborne 87 to 91.
Nice car for 50k. 0 to 60 around 6sec it's not bad. I would buy it.
Thanks Sarah 👍
Aluminium Forever!
👍👌👏 again and as always (video and work). Best regards, luck and health in particular.
At 4:55 did Sarah say" hairy carpet"? Yet another reason Sarah is my favorite car reviewer!
I love how this is the base version in America. Here in the UK (And the rest of Europe), the base model is a 1.3 litre turbo (Yes, a 1.3 litre engine in a 2024 Mercedes) with 134bhp, 148lb ft of torque and 0-60mph in a leisurely 8.7 seconds 🐢
"Fake tips' Just sound great, too!
"It's like flying on a C-130"..........LOL! Yep!!
Those seats and the strange headrests look like the GETH from Mass Effect.
Yo the cludge is move the groubs of gears and not in line move the power that got more area and press on for power of synfony ! ;)
Sachs was making motocross engines(2-stroke 250cc) back in the 1970s....CZ and Peyton used them I think. Been around. ..
Cargo netting seats are the best napping surfaces IYKYK
Very nice.
well for some of us who have flown the C-130 it do make sense 🙂. A number of different versions actually. 41 years in the Royal Danish Air Force and a couple of deployments gives you that.
You’re the best ! 🙂❤️

I don't really hate dual-clutch automatics. I'm just jealous that they can shift faster than I can. I love it that they feel more like a manual..if I wanted a slushbox, I'd buy a 1977 Chevelle. Oh, and a vote for Air Force Girl reviewing a C-130. I'm close to an ARB, I see them all the time. Never been on one, though.
Looks like a lot of "in for service " potential with all the gadgets. I'm still looking at the Nissan Versa S manual as King or Queen, depending on perspective.
When Daimler divested itself of Chrysler I have always thought they took some plans for cars in development. Obviously the Viper, the Tradesman van and this would have been the new Stratus.
This car is built in my hometown.
1st person I ever heard who liked riding in a C-130.
I remember what a ride in a C130 was like in 1966, I can only imagine what it is like now.
1966? Brings back memories of Vietnam.
Indeed it does.
Hey Sarah, tell the truth you studied at some Tibetan monk hideaway for years to do these reviews or perhaps in a coma for six months and woke up with this amazing power. I don’t know, but these are great already can’t wait for the next one.🐧🐧🐧👍
I have the CLA 250 e plugin hybrid and I have to say that the car is great all around. However, fortunately I have the 2023 model with real buttons on the steering wheel and the touchpad in the center console.
Why did they remove the touch pad and other options in the 2024 model.
@@jaymacfilms Just an educated guess, but: To increase theit profit margin even more.
The scores fit like a jigsaw puzzle.
I love you so much!!!❤❤❤
Did you remember to put the car in car wash mode when the horse was washing the car? t also would have been more fitting if you were reviewing a mustang or a camaro (pony cars). Great review as always.
I got the, "...C-130..." comment. I have over 5,000 hours in the Herky Bird. For a big plane, they are very responsive in a controlled sort of way. 🤓
Should check for the ackermann steering issues that cause crabbing and plagues all 4matic benz.
I'd like to see a comparison of a cla250 and c300. The price is only separated by a few thousand, but the c300 is rwd, not fwd. Maybe the cla250 gets better lease deals, but I don't see the value proposition over the c300 like it used to when it started around 33-35k
