Going through the main running costs you can expect with a 2019 Mercedes C43 AMG, along with general costs for other AMG vehicles like the A45 / CLA 45 and C63. These include road tax, fuel, servicing and tires.
It's nowhere near as bad as you might've thought!

Cheers for the video bro I just bought a 2019 plate C43 facelift. Definitely going to get the service pack!
Enjoy!
Tires: 800 per year or 66 per month
Service care plan! 1k per year or 83 per month
Road tax: 150 per year or 12.5 per month
Fuel: 150 per month
Insurance: 360 per month
Finance: 500 per month
Average repair cost! 2k per year: 166 per month
66+83+12.5+150+360+500+166: £1,337.5 per month.
Interesting with the tyres. I'm just hitting my first 10k miles with my c43 as it turns a year old and my two front tyres are almost fully worn. I've got a decent amount left on the rears. My car came with the pirelli p zero's from factory (uk car also). I'd of thought the rears would go first due to 70% power the the rear but I guess the fronts take alot with this setup too.
Surprised at that pal! What pressures are you running front and rear?
Zubair Hoque what do you recommend?
Cheers from Boston, USA, Just picked up a 2020 C43 in lunar blue with saddle interior. Love it so far. Thanks for the content!
Appreciate the comment pal!
How is the fuel economy? What are you monthly costs on gas?
I’m really impressed by Mercedes entry level AMG’s. cars that aren’t too loud, luxurious and seemingly blend and don’t seek immense eyes all over. The A35 is perfect for me who just wants a pocket rocket nobody notices.

Is that reasonable? What do you think? More than 1k per month for a car is alot! Which means no more monthly savings for me for a house..etc and once you sign he contract, you are locked into it for 3,4 or 5 years. But it gets hard as a 26 year old when every body in your gym have nice cars but you don't. What do you think?
@@meti9230you only live once bro
@@meti9230I would say try to make bigger payments if you can
How reliable is it compared to the cla 45 I don’t want to get a used one and have the turbos go out do you think the c43 is more reliable
Good info. Never knew about road tax or service costs. Big consideration. Thanks .

Zubair cheers again for the video. Test driving the c43. Did you keep the tyres as run flat?
Good video and bought maintenance package and extended warranty on purchase
How likely is it to get up around 35mpg with a consistent speed of around 60-65mph over a 25 mile motorway drive? I do 3x 50 round trips per week and just wondered what it’ll be to run weekly
Great video which highlights for me how the government rob motorists. The tax goes on emissions but then if the car list price exceeds 40k they’ll charge you more???...also how can the dealers do the servicing cheaper on a service plan than paying on the day? In m6 book there do8ng the same job and half the time the6 don’t do much!...Why will people pay obscene money for car servicing and yet gas fitters and sparkys are frowned upon at a third of the mechanics hourly rate???
How come Road tax increases in second ownership as the list price is for a new buyer
I am 🤯 between a c432017 or a C63 2016/17 you didn’t mention the car Insurance cost ? Do you think is more manageable the running cost of a c43 than a C63 ? Did you consider c63 before buying this car ? If yes why you don’t get the c63 ? Thanks I hope you reply my message
That sound in the tunnels tho 😍 flippin love it keep it up Zubz looking forward to your next video 👍
Where did you get the pana grill? also do you know if it fits with the driver asst package with the flat star?
Caro Babaknia Cks performance
Love the honesty in the video. Keep them coming love your content
Thank you!
Do you recommend the CLA 2020 4Matic or just the front wheel drive a good car to buy
Bro, great video mate. I just bought a 2019 C43 Facelift. I will be liable for taxing the vehicle upon receipt. Do you know how much I will need to pay?
The list price is £49k
Off the top of my head I think it’s around £800...
How much mpg do u get on local roads plz
Interesting video. To compare to my C55 estate (5.4L N/A v8) which has similar power output I can get up to 34 mpg on a long trip and around 20 around town. It looks like it isn't so much the engine tech that wins you some fuel economy but the transmission as I only have a 5 speed developed in the 90s...

How much is finance PCM?
Nice video man. I'm debating wether to buy a 2018 C63 Coupe, but then I think a newer model is coming out soon? Although it's said to lose the V8 masterclass. Wonder if that means the older ones might hold their value slightly better or not...
100% they will definitely hold their value
IF you are buying a 63, then you need a 507 edition with as much kit on as possible to retain it's value.
i have a standard, and in sport plus on a damp road she'll step out at the back
when i took it out for a test drive before buying, the showroom let us take it out on our own, my wife in the passenger seat.
we went onto a dual carriageway clear but for two cars in the distance. i hit the kickdown in 'comfort' mode, and for a second nothing happened..... then BANG! at the rear and the car hurled itself forward as if out of a catapult, my wife screamed out...
i told her to 'stop screaming', to which she replied 'the headrest just hit me at the back of my head' once i realised the headrest hadn't moved, i thought 'i'm having this.
now nigh on £600 tax and in sport plus with spirited driving i reckon that well into single figure mpg is attainable, and new set of rears every 5k miles it's not cheap, but i NEVER, NEVER stop smiling.
btw, i was considering a 43 at the time, but backed off over the crabbing issue, which at that time wasn't resolved.
@@davec8730 lethal story 👌🏽
First minute 30 seconds no sound or talk i thought it was just a car noise video
Where you get the frontgrill from? I have too an c43 amg i want it too
Cks performance
Loved the intro drive! Such a beast
Do miss the 45 at times though!
@@DrivesbyZH Aha, I can imagine. Already looking forward to your next car!
Could you please send me the link of your front grill? Plz
how much is the insurance??
You should take your car to DMS Automotive and you can have those pops and bangs you miss added back in through a tune? Also have the option to increase the bhp to around 430
Do you not have the Performance Exhaust?
Great question....I'm wondering the same thing, since he said he misses the loud pops & bangs......I'm pretty sure I would never buy any AMG without it, but that's just me.
How much are ur payments for this car ? And ur put down
He’s paying 300 and something monthly pcp
less than 10k from a set of tyes , last owner was not driving his granny around ?

@@meti9230 you were quoted £4,320 a year on insurance. Mate they’re pulling your pants down there. I’m getting one of these are insurance about 1500 PY
@@Louid133 that's dirt cheap my bro. How did you get it down so much? Do you live outside London and a few years of no claims?
@@meti9230 yes, 27 and live in wales, lots of no claims. Plus The car is cheaper because I’m trading in my bmw so that’s taking 10k off the c43. Payments are looking around £480 a month. Was going to get a c63 but it is thirsty so going with the c43
500-600 miles from a tank?? Thats an average of 38mpg. Impressive if so, but as the claimed mpg is 28 I struggle to beleive that
Watch my collection video...averaged exactly that on the 200+ mile journey 😉

Is it better to lease or pay to own one of these machines?
Performance cars the good lease deals are few and far between and can be quite expensive. And modifications aren’t allowed. Leasing is good for ‘business cars’ i.e bmw 3/5 series, normal c class etc
I have 14 mpg/ 17L c43amg T
How do you drive? How muh does your c43 cost you monthly in gas
Rear drive better than 4 wheel personally I have a bmw
You are Indian or Pakistani? Roads are actually decent there. You are speaking good English. Greetings from Finland; like these C43.
Mate, he is British. I don't see the relevancy in your question.
😂🤣😂
You surprised there's Asians in Britain. You haven't been here have you? 😭😭
