I own an 2011 GLK220CDI 4matic that I use as a taxi.Very good car with very good building quality.Driven 120000km(75000 miles) in one year and absolutly no problems.
Have really always liked the GLK - that is when it has a sport package and is loaded up with options. It makes the more base models look like a practically different car. Can't wait for the 2013 face lifted models to roll in, their interiors look much better, IMO.
I really wasn't sure if I liked these and maybe it's just the lighting, but after watching this video, I'm convinced! I like it better than than the X3 or Q5. My only problem with Mercedes is how expensive it is to get them serviced but I suppose if you can afford a Mercedes-Benz, you can afford to get it serviced Lol.
dont know if you guys gives a damn but if you guys are stoned like me during the covid times you can watch all the new series on Instaflixxer. Have been streaming with my girlfriend these days xD
My dads got one of these.A 2013 350 AWD/4Matic and its white with a black interior and a sunroof its got nearly 200,000 miles on it some parts on the interior may be falling apart but its still going strong.we can tell that the previous owner didn't like to take care of the car but took it to lots of places bc they didn't clear the navigation system disk so were still trying to figure that out.Its got a Much bigger screen then that one but its not a fully loaded Mercedes System with all the apps package and stuff like that.its Based on the C Class so I didn't expect it to come with it but I did expect it to come with a reverse camera because a lot of these do.Wever had it for 5 going on 6 years
FACT: The GLK was never engineered for right hand drive, due to high re-engineering costs. The driveshaft, used to send drive to the front wheels for its four-wheel drive system, intruded on the passenger-side footwell of the left hand drive model, reportedly making it unfeasible to engineer a right hand drive version. Altering this, according to sources, would have been too expensive, even if it meant being able to sell it in key right hand drive car markets like the UK, South Africa and Australia. Mercedes estimated that re-engineering for right hand drive models would have cost the best part of €70 million (or £59.3 million), however, they did have a low cost solution in the form of a rear wheel drive only GLK, but as the car had been designed to be a four wheel drive SUV, that simply wouldn't do as Mercedes wouldn't be happy with a compromised vehicle.
I love the Mercedes Benz GLK350, you did such a great job. You are truly a wonderful car reviewer. I watch all of your videos. I love all kinds of cars! Thanks for all the reviews you do.
this thing is very clean running, although im suprised i don't see any woodgrain, i love the SmartTech 4Matic AWD, it has settings for rock, sand, mud, gravel, water, snow, overall on a scale from 1-10, give a 9
The Original Luxury Car. So many gadgets and buttons you can push. Sun roof, moon roof, power windows, power door locks, power seats, cup holders, etc.
I like your videos, especially this one because I love this car. I wish though you had turned the car stereo off after demonstrating it, I would have loved to hear how much noise the sunroof made.
You're missing out haha. In Germany (at least the places I went to) most taxis seemed to be VWs and Mercedes Benz and the occasional Opel. We have a few Mercedes Benz taxis in Australia too.
They tested this here in sweden in a car magazine, vs the volvo xc60 and audi q7, the downsides was the mpg, other than that nothing to complain about, but for sheer economy the volvo was best. The audi had smaller interior space. haha i don't know why im tellin you this but i just got thinking about that review when i saw this video ^^
Nice car, but exterior reminds me mitsubishi pajero/montro pinin/tr4/io, I wonder, is it possible to make a taht kind of video(test drive will b great) of a suzuki sidekick/vitara/tracker or a video about Toyota or Mitsubishi Van?
@mrantis personally, after being in a ride in both cars, id say the jeep because it rides so much nicer, has more power, and has the underpinnings of a gl, also the glk lacks a little but in the power range js.. but test drive both of them definately
No offense or anything, but the music gets worse in every video. I know it's not your fault, but can you put it on a classic channel or something before you start filming?
@JakobPowellTECH most high end cars get real wood in the car, its just laminated to protect it, lol even my grand cherokee`s steering wheel has real wood in it, even has dents from when my nephew bit it, haha
I considered this MB when it first came out and was put off by the interior. Cheap was the impression that I got and bought a Infiniti EX35 instead. Better inside and out and whole lot more features for the money. I like MB products but this one does not add luster to the brand.
Is this as basic as your can get for a benz? the interior looks kinda high class plasticy..plus that steering wheels looks very...narrow and weird looking that engine sounds like it has a supercharger ;) Needs AMG trim
@MusicMan0007 actually yea i have, my mom has a 2009 E class...these glk's are just a rip off to me and the c class...it just seems anything below the E class is really cheap feeling...not trying to shoot u down or nothing :) its just my opinion that after 2000 or 1999 mercedes started getting cheaper and cheaper with their materials.
I love this car so much! Owned it for 5 years and still going strong with 170K on the clock.
did u have any issues along the way?
Do you have issues with it ?
I Have My 2015 With 40K On It How Long Will It last? Some guy on UA-cam said engines are not good
@@georgemacheda4149 250k miles easily with a chance of upto 400k if you are extra careful

The GLK is the best from Mercedes.
Best with V6 165kW engine without DPF. Whoever bought it didn't make a mistake. It's still a great car even today.
Man that thing is a real beauty. I always loved the "G" series. I love the variety on your channel, thanks Kyle.
If I could have any car in the world it would for sure be this one, I love these!

Awesome overview. Really like this model. Bummer though, I really hate it when a dealership adds their decal/logo to the rear of the car!
Kamera Guy I believe it's a sticker
mob million imagine acting like my 60 yr old dad then not being able to tell their from there or their or they’re :)

Now this is an in depth video tour
My first used Mercedes SUV! nice job bro.
You are the only guy i like to watch for the in-depth tours😄
and also the only person that in all his reviews pops the hazards, and leaves them on in all his videos
Christopher Engstrom he does a good reveiw

That is an awesome car, the interior is amazing and the car is really luxurious, I really like it

Love this car, especially the sound system!
This car has the best looking mirror turn signels, they look so cool
this thing is very clean running, although im suprised i don't see any woodgrain, i love the SmartTech 4Matic AWD, it has settings for rock, sand, mud, gravel, water, snow, overall on a scale from 1-10, give a 9
I like the turn signals, they look very like "hey Im turning" very bright
Yes! I love Mercedes. I can't wait to get my 300SE back from the shop tomorrow!
I love the black Dodge Charger at 0:14

I saw one of those at a Mercedes dealership.This car is awesome!
the left most pedal is to engage the parking brake
the handle under the light controls is to release it
I like your videos, especially this one because I love this car. I wish though you had turned the car stereo off after demonstrating it, I would have loved to hear how much noise the sunroof made.
exellent video. very detailed. thanks man.
Another great video kyle. Gotta give you props fro doing these videos and going to school all at once. How do you do it all?
if im not mistaken that mercedes c-class, 0:28 , has been there for at least 7 months. if you go back to your #600th video you started it up at 6:00.
@koobydotnet Handbrakes are usually on smaller cars over here. Larger cars, trucks/SUV's have the foot emergency brakes
Ok, very good vid and top car!! Will be mine in future
This was when it was new!😍
Can you do the 2015 GLK?
Great video, please keep it up with Mercedes videos!
You're missing out haha. In Germany (at least the places I went to) most taxis seemed to be VWs and Mercedes Benz and the occasional Opel. We have a few Mercedes Benz taxis in Australia too.
this is a cute little truck
hmm looks like its sibling 2011 jeep cherakee just a tad and thumbs up for the sunset Dude nice vids
can you review the 2015 glk please?
They not make GLK's anymore in 2015/16
Look for GLA-GLC-GLE-GLS
If you're interested in the nee Mercedes SUV's
Ibrahim Awad thank you, what a shame they don't make the GLK anymore, i really like its classic design, the new successor GLC looks modenized to me
The GLC is the 2nd gen GLK, just has a name change
They tested this here in sweden in a car magazine, vs the volvo xc60 and audi q7, the downsides was the mpg, other than that nothing to complain about, but for sheer economy the volvo was best. The audi had smaller interior space. haha i don't know why im tellin you this but i just got thinking about that review when i saw this video ^^
I wonder why they discontinued this. Also the ML. They both were doing great in the US, maybe not so well in Germany.
Linsey Redd they still have both models in the US. They're just named differently now
Yeah, the ML not the GLK.
Linsey Redd the glc is just the new version of the glk
James Johansson Videos None of these did well in Europe except the GLK model a bit.
great car! Great vid!
Very nice!=] It looks good in that time a day.
cool! i always loved these suv's :)
i have the 2012 one after selling my bmw x5 i think this tops it in every way if you guys a looking for a new luxury suv this is THE ONE!
How long did it last I am looking at one right now but need advice
is this thing (as well as the new MLs) still being built in alabama?
Thanks, you're vids are awesome! XD
Nice car, but exterior reminds me mitsubishi pajero/montro pinin/tr4/io, I wonder, is it possible to make a taht kind of video(test drive will b great) of a suzuki sidekick/vitara/tracker or a video about Toyota or Mitsubishi Van?
Kyle! Can you do the GLK 2014, please?
Is this a good car for a Guy to own?
@mrantis personally, after being in a ride in both cars, id say the jeep because it rides so much nicer, has more power, and has the underpinnings of a gl, also the glk lacks a little but in the power range js.. but test drive both of them definately
can you please do a vidoe of that white roush in the beginning?
2012 GLK or 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland? Which one should I get?
Nice car, but the backseats are a bit cramped p:

Tiffany Cartagena have you found out ?
Tiffany Cartagena I live in Texas and I pay $141 full coverage for my Glk
Per month/year?
Grissy Blanco I am trying to buy the 2011. what can you tell me about maintenance and repairs?.
Tiffany Cartagena I'll pay it. come live with me

Do you have the 2010? How is it holdong up?
Wait, so theres no way we can be playing our own music with our phone in a 2010 model?????
That’s a lie bro, the aux is in the glove compartment. That’s where all early benz aux is.
I just noticed, is the rpm supposed to be that low at idle?

Could you do a Toyota Venza Limited v6?
No offense or anything, but the music gets worse in every video. I know it's not your fault, but can you put it on a classic channel or something before you start filming?
great review
Was you having a bad day or just not interested in the car in general
@JakobPowellTECH most high end cars get real wood in the car, its just laminated to protect it, lol even my grand cherokee`s steering wheel has real wood in it, even has dents from when my nephew bit it, haha

whats the most expensive car you've ever detailed?

i tried one of theese as an passanger man its cool
I wish the interior had curvier bits and pieces, and wood trim!! That would look MUCH better!!
