I am aware I said "AMG Line" in error, when its only Sport specification. Cheers :)
Isn't that avantgarde
Nice mate
This is how a benz should look...CLASSIC
to my eyes it looks a hell of a lot better with the classic grill/upright star
I totally agree. I´m so tired of seeing the amg/avantgarde front. That´s why i bought my w205 with the "classic" star. Looks so much more classy.
Btw: it´s called "exclusive line" now, not "elegance" anymore.
Týrmorr yes just yes
The same thing is with CLS C218 :)
It looks so much more better with the chrome grill and hood ornament!
Looks like an S class, amaizing!!!!
Not At all
@@subscribemf3528 So its basically an E-Class but worth the investment
You can't imagine how satistfied this video made me😂
Me too
You've improved the look of this a thousand times. Brilliant job.
I mostly see the Avantgarde versions around these days. Which is a little sad as I love the traditional look. It just doesn't feel like a proper MB to me without the classic star and grille. Enjoyed the video, cheers!
Old grill was fine but this is amazing and enhanced the whole look of a car, looks like an S-class
I had an AMG line, but must admit I really like the conversion. I had no idea they retained the grill and ornament option in Europe.
think it's gone with the 206 only in China still available.
Here in the USA the standing star hood ornament is respected and so unique. MB are the only ones besides rolls Royce that still use them. Gives a feeling of class and wealth. Can’t believe MB thinks the big star is better and has decided to eliminate the standing star. It doesn’t feel right without seeing it on the car. After all it’s always there to remind you your in a MB and guide the way to automotive superiority.
I agree, Elegance line looks so much better on C Class. While I would have preferred to keep all the vent covers in the Elegance style, you did a great job overall; I had no idea so many components are actually attached to that front end.The hood ornament is just icing. I remember it being like a gun sight from behind the wheel in my old 400E, and I loved it. The last car I had with the ornament was a 97 E420, although it seemed a bit less prominent from the drivers seat. But regardless, I started driving ML/GLE's a while back and they were never meant to have the stand up star.
Yeah! I would like to choose the traditional classic grill at the front end, it really represent the legendary of MB, especially the S-Class series!
It looks SOOOOO much more handsome!!!
Well done, and thank you for sharing, sir!!! It makes me want to buy a W205 and do this!!!
This is how a proper Mercedes should look . I detest the gaudy “ lighted “ star in the grill on the sedans
This is the REAL MERCEDES.... good job... 👍👍
Now that’s a damn beautiful car. I love the baby blue color, reminds me of my grand father’s w111 coupe.
I am surprised but it looks SO MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE and FIERCE with the classic grill. Absolutely love it
Great job. The right look of MB.
I Love It!!!! The Real Merc Look
Just ordered an entire Elegance front end from the Netherlands for my 2016 W205. Definitely prefer the classic look. Thanks for the video, I'll no doubt be referring to it when I'm swapping them over!
Hi where did you manage to fetch the entire front end from and how much did it cost you? Uk
@@auke786 all on eBay. I have the part numbers if you’d like. However, when it arrived it had been beaten up badly. I ended up returning it and was still liable for import duty since it was from the Netherlands. Front end was about 300 quid. Import duty of over 100 quid. I’ve put the whole thing down to experience and just accepted the car as it is 😂
@@andrewcroberts1 plz send for 2018 c300 will pay finders fee
You fixed it. That is how a Benz looks like.
Looks so much better... good job
Great job ... I have the S350 2019 model ... your baby S class looks amazing!
good for you
@@alsrig0420 hater
ive always been thinking about doing this haha im so glad u made this video :)
That looks so delicious. Well done mate. Even it looks awesome with the grille and flat badge. Looks great though.
Didn’t think this would work, but this looks ace!
Great mod and looks much better than having a ‘double star’ (ie. people who just swap out the flat bonnet star for a cross hair one - looks hideous!)
Just an observation at 4:14 - that car is a UK ‘Sport’ not an AMG line.
Yeah I had uploaded it before I noticed, I should have just said 'Sport Model'
I remember as little kid my great uncle(grandmother's brother) had a 1985 slate blue Mercedes S-Class. Remember at the family reunion here in the States. Seeing the Mercedes, Cadillacs, Lincolns and Buicks with hood ornaments were a sign of prestige. Nowadays a lot of luxury cars have gotten away with the hood ornaments. But to me it makes the car look classy
I have a facelift s212 with the big star and evertime I see a black pre facelift 212 I think that it looks really classy. Great video.
I kinda want to do this conversion now. It really looks like a baby W222 S-Class. Thank you for the part number and close up of the hood ornament.
Great job!
This is a cool change, nice job. Hopefully Mercedes UK give us more options next time round.
Looks so much better
thats what i am talking about, nice work. the grill with the star. perfect.
Looks amazing. Thanks for doing this video for TH-cam. I think it’s lucky you managed to get all of the parts from a seller in Europe. I guess it’s harder to do it bit by bit...
The elegance of the sports vents is a nice touch
Definitely looks much better 👍
great work mate! looks so much better
Job well done 👍🏾
This looks NICE!!!!
Nice job!!! congratulations your car looks amazing!!
Brilliant video, thanks!
gods work 👌🏻
Hey there!
Interesting video. I have a W205 as well, the Avantgarde line like your original one. I also liked the classic look better before I bought the car, but it grew on me, and now I am more into the big star, without the emblem.
Very nice :)
Diamler Benz, if you’re reading this, PLEASE give the buyer the option of the more “traditional” front end versus the “modern” front end. PLEASE!!!!
i can tell you that it´s also true for germany that the exclusive line is almost a rarity. People constantly confuse my w205 with an S-Class.
People confuse your W205 for an S-class? Really?
@@NaveenKumar-oj7xh Yes. Because most people just don´t know that the classic grill still exists for the C-class. It´s so uncommon.
@@NaveenKumar-oj7xh To be honest I even find it hard to distinguish S-class, E-class and C-class with this elegance trim when they are moving, basically the only way I can tell what is what is from the dimensions, when I get near an S-class I can notice is quite bigger compared to a C-class, but still, it's really hard to tell the difference if you do not see them everyday knowing what is what
Seigma I got mistaken as the front bumper is like the s class
@@seigma5340 c class has 1 lightstrip in headlight, e class has 2 and s class has 3
Don't you love it when you sit inside a Mercedes-Benz and you have the hood emblem guiding your way??
I love that! The domination of land, water and air
Looks great 👍
Sweet job!
While I actually like the look of the sport better ya did a hell of a good job with the swap.
Very classy!
I'm not really into mercs but this does make it look a lot better and it should be sold this way. I'm surprised the s-class ornament actually fits in the c-class bonnet. Good job!
Mantaaaaab bro 👍😃👍
One of its kind🎉
dam i never really thought about this, but seeing the "elegant" front end really does make it look more, well, elegant. Maybe it's because in the UK were only used to seeing the S class in that style
Beautiful!
thanks!
Looks rich 👌
Wow Nice!
Nice job
It looks classic and luxurious
ive always been a bigger fan of the diamond grill compared to the sports one you had. i have it on my c43 and think it just gives it a more modern elegant look
Yeah...that is a proper Benz with classic hood ornament 😊👍
It looks good
Now that’s a job well done
Thanks :)
lovely! I personally think that this looks way better and more like it used too .. today you look at a C180 with AMG exhaust and it always makes me throw up
so, really good job with this.
Hey, I've got the LHD twin! I'm preferential to the classic grill as well. Love the old "Heritage Grill" from the 80's
Brilliant
Amazing..!!!
Lovely looking 👀
Yes! This looks fabulous!
Modern smaller Mercedes' lack that elegance that separates them from other cars on the road. They're too aggressive and sporting.
A proper (non-AMG) Mercedes should be all about elegance and luxury, and that's exactly what this grille and badge bring back.
It would be my number one requirement for having one.
Top job.
Amazing work sir!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very interesting video
This is great I love the old traditional grill. That’s the good old german Mercedes. Klassik no other way. Great job mate
Thanks 👍
@@killerhertzmercedes plz can i do it E class 2017 in usa
So do I, totally agree that the Elegance line looks so much better on C Class then the Avantgarde gril. Im from the netherlands, and looking to buy a C class 350e and I do prefer the Elegence grill, but its like 1 out of 20 of the cars that have this look. But its more work then expected, so I guess ill keep searching for the right one :) thanks for making this great video!
great video! well made 100
If you can pull this off you deserve it!
very nice
Very3 luxury looking with the classic grill
That new style is very nice and I'm saving up to own one. Looking at 2013 or newer but Cat N or S so I can stick the AMG kit on it and save money on it overall.
Quite a big job....I worked for Mercedes during this series of production and was told it was " just a grille swap" - apparently not. Looks great!....Was there a reason you didn't transfer the lower center mesh from the sport bumper over?
Awesome job for your Dad. Tour good son. I'm in the USA.
Looks a lot nicer now
That looks mean!
Looks way better with the swapped front bumper.
It’s the s class baby brother
Pretty much better!
Nice exhaust marks on the garage wall ;)
That is a Mercedes-Benz!
9:20 borrowed the Benz from pops for upgrade and you borrowed his sneakers lol. Air monarchs. Video is lit though and new grill is lit.
Hi where did you manage to fetch the entire front end from europe including the elegance grill and how much did it cost you? Uk
As per the video, MbenzNL supplied it.
was around £500 all in.
so i dont have to get the luxury c300 4matic right ? i can just get the c300 from newer years like 2018-2019 and still put the luxury bumper and star right ? please answer asap
Great video, I’m looking to get this conversation done to my W213 E CLASS. Any info from yourself would be great, thanks.
Someday Ima do this to my dads w205 and surprise him
Can you make a video on the new E class with the luxury conversion:
I love this grill, but I also love my AMG front bumper, such a shame there’s no front grills with no large logo in the centre for a W205 to suit my style of bumper.
I'm watching even though I don't even have a mrbz
It was the best of times it was the worst of times for that car Its a brilliant car! Looks way better
looks sick! what a small change can do is unbelieveble...
Ps: the front venders on the left and right would be better with the black gloss ones ^_^ these ones looks cheap on your new classfull bumper (but thats my opinion)
Thanks for comments!
In person the gloss ones look kinda cheaper... Each to their own eh? :)
