I have been watching this channel for a few months , looking round for a new car and found the open , chatty style of the commentary very relaxing and easy to listen too . Couple that to someone who understands that people want a rounded opinion of the car - what may break , running costs and alternate models to consider then this is a winning combination. p.s. If the content is over 10 minutes long then then your tube monetisation starts to help supplement the channel

Hi Matt I would just like to thank you for this review, after watching it I was able to buy a low mileage one and have to say it’s brilliant and yes I have two Labradors and live up a rough track in the Lake District ! Thanks also to one of your subscribers comments that suggested resetting the gearbox which I have done and the results are amazing the gearbox is now silky smooth with no hesitations. So once again many thanks keep up the good work. Really enjoy your reviews.

Every 4matic transmission has a selflearning function. The way it changes depends on the previous owner's driving style. If it feels like it doesn't know what to do just reset it and drive as you would and it will use the first 40 gear changes to learn how you drive and it will be smooth as a butter.....

I had one of these for quite a while and it really was a superb car. It was a GLA 220 4 Matic diesel with hill descent control as standard. I just liked the shape and the fact that it was not too tall - a cross between an SUV and an ordinary A-class. Looking back on the cars I have had recently, it was definitely one of my favourites. The new GLA is a great car but I just - for no rational reason - liked the first model. A Range Rover is a non starter for me as I don't have an HGV licence and it is too big, too ugly and too footballer's wife. )I don't have a Labradoodle, by the way). A good fun review, as usual!

The amount of times I have seen a GLA or GLB in my mirrors and thought " that looks like a nice big Merc, only for it to pass and I see the rear of the car seems to tapper into, well nothingness. It's as if they spent 80% of the design budget on the front and then just designed a bland rear.
@lm971120
@lm971120 2 жыл бұрын
Bit of correction, the GLK came out after GLE (M->ML->GLE) and GL (GL->GLS) to fill the gap in compact SUVs (the other two are gigantic), and was later renamed GLC instead of GLB. The GLK was based on a RWD longitudinally mounted engine platform (the 1st gen GLK was quite good with those V6 petrols), whereas GLB is based on Mercedes' small FWD transversely mounted engine platform same as this one. Hence confusing the two really annoyed me, it's like saying C class is based on A class...

Im driving one of these for around a Year. Its a 2018 gla 180d manual (witch is even worse than the 220cdi in the video). I lived my whole youth with a c220cdi w204 and when i switched into the gla, i got pleasently surprised: even if the car is a little bit less confy, and with less quality, the drive is good, the confrot is decent and it gives you a higher drive position than the old C class. The downsides are the fact that they cheaped a little bit, but considering the whole "new" merc lineup is made of cheap plastic, doesnt bother me that much

Hey Matt. Bit stuck here. I'm looking to treat myself at some point. Got myself a Suzuki Jimny 2006 for work following your review (thank you!); now looking at a personal vehicle, but really undecided between the B-Class and GLA. Seen both your reviews. Wife has a Golf which she loves. We have two small children......I do like the GLA as it looks "jacked-up", but I'm liking the B-Class as well! Will opt either way for the 4matic option as I'm a fan of 4x4. What do you reckon? Many thanks!

GLA is actually the perfect car. More exclusive than the A class, better ride due to being jacked up higher. Bigger boot meaning more practical and easier to get in and out I have an A class of this generation and really like it but I think the GLA is a better car. I recently upgraded the tiny stuck on screen to a 10 25 unit which makes the car seem so modern. With the new screen the car is perfect. Don't mind the engine but I think its the 7 dct gearbox that doesn't help with the noise. But in honesty who really cares about a diesel engine being loud

My experience with an a class (not gla) was a courtesy car from mercedes whilst my c class coupe was in for its many repairs it had, got in the car and the accelerator pedal was faulty, you put your foot down and nothing, you let go and push it again and it would go, had to drive it in sport as it was the only mode that sort of worked to drive it home, luckily it was for 1 day and was a relief to give the damn thing back !

Not sure about the other GLA's in the range but a GLA45 is a great drive and holds the road well, very nippy too, an underrated car. I don't think of GLA's as off road vehicles, don't think thats the point or intention of them, the 4matic versions hold the wet roads better and that grip works well in the 45. Also there weren't that many GLA45 built for RHD so probably why you don't see many. Its definitely a niche car but thats what appeals to some.

My quibbles: Sport Mode being selected by a silly button on the dashboard and even with a sunroof it was a bit gloomy inside with so much black trim. Apart from that, no complaints.

Also, because it was only 1500 quid, I don't 'care' about it, so it can get loaded with all the mud and crap from the farm and I'm not bothered - 17 grand however, that'd be a different matter.

That Harry's razor is amazing. I paid the extra £5 for a surprise and got a lovely gift. Cheers for the link. (3:38 ... did that Discovery hit 88mph? ... It's now back in 1985).

You don't see the point. Bro. This is the first Mercedes-benz that some of us can afford. Well at least that needs a little space for tools. And my apologies but you talked about the gas mileage. This is the best in the price range I found.

serious question: does that gear lever protect you from accidentally switching into reverse or other gears while driving at a higher speed? i can imagine someone wanting to use turn signals but instead going for this thing. or do you have to be extremely stupid to confuse them with each other?

Yes I’m pretty sure there are safety features built in to prevent that

I guess I'm the oddball in the comments here, but I own a 2018 GLA45 and I love it. Super easy to drive in C and decent MPG but switch to S+ or R and it's a bloody rocket. The crackles and pops on upshifts and downshifts are beyond addicting. It flies slightly under the radar on the road for being an AMG, which I like. It looks like a sporty hatch to most people. Only minor complaints I have is the slightly cheapened interior with the plastics and the ride can be rough sometimes, even in C, but it's forgivable for being an AMG vehicle and it handles like it's on rails when pushed to the limit. I'm excited to own it for a while and interested to see where I can go from here in the Merc lineup, preferably staying in the AMG line.
