Great review ..... Just bought this car with the same interior package .... And black exterior .... Brings a smile every time I drive it ..... Thx Patrick for doing such great reviews for ppl in the Uae with the aed prices etc
I may be wrong on my maths but you drove 273km (180 miles) and used 9 litres (2 gallons)? That’s 90 miles to the gallon? That can’t be right. It could be me though. I hope it’s good on fuel as I get my 2018 model in two days. Thanks for the review. Very very helpful.
Thanks for the review Patrick... like your videos. I have a question for you... Given that the ATS 2.5L has similar performance figures and similarly equipped while it costs about AED 70k less (140k for the ATS versus 210k for the C200), which one would you recommend? In fact, 3.6L ATS with 320hp (versus 184hp for the C200) is about 30k cheaper. Is the Cadillac that inferior in terms of build quality to the MB or the MB is just ridiculously overpriced?
too many of my friends were telling to buy it from Germany/Belgium its more cheaper there ! even the used one price w'll cheaper then Dubai prices ! your Opinion plz Patrick tnx
Hey Patrick thanks a lot for the review, I would suggest that you put the prices of the different trim levels of the same car. Does Gargash sell the C250 or only the C200 ?
Ahmed Khalifa Thanks for your feedback, I try to keep the facts short and simple as prices do change over time and those can be found online usually. I prefer to stick to my personal findings about the cars and therefore recommend or advise potential buyers about what I feel is important. cheers
Dear Ahmed, thank you for your feedback. I would love to help you with the exact color information, unfortunately I didn't get the specs on the color code.
I always say, that the difference in service and maintenance is pretty much he same to Japanese cars, it while you service a Mercedes every 15.000km for AED 1500 for example, you will service a Toyota 3x every 5000km for AED 500 each. So in the end it's the same but you don't have to go to the dealer every 2-3 months!
Kia and Hyundai are working together in Dubai and I still have to get in touch with them. My time is unfortunately limited but I am trying to expand my network constantly. Please be patient, I am trying my best.
Cars Cars Cars The next car that I will publish will be the 2014 Audi A5 Convertible. After that the 2014 Chevrolet Malibu LTZ, followed by the 2014 Ford Fusion and after that the 2014 Chevrolet Camaro SS Convertible. That's the schedule for the next weeks.
I am looking since long time to review the Fiat 500. Biggest problem in Dubai is, that Fiat is very very rare here and you don't see many of them. Not even sure if they will have a demo car for review available. Will try my best, thanks for watching.
Cars Cars Cars I will check it out soon, but the question is as well if they have test cars available for reviews. Usually when a manufacturer is smaller they don't always have those. I will try my best as I am curious on how the Fiat 500 drives.
when I tested it I wasn't that impressed, really wasn't a fan of the interior and the exterior was way to S class (like you mentioned allot). But ride comfort gets an A+
For me it's the other way around. I really like the looks of it, especially the exterior. I have seen pictures of the new upcoming C63 that's due to arrive next year, looks great. Shame is that Mercedes killed the 6.2l V8 naturally aspirated engine, now it's going to be a 4.0l V8 Turbo charged one.
The SRT's have great engine and exhaust sound, but they will never have the same feel of quality like a Mercedes-Benz. So it comes down to what is more important, power or refinement.
Auto Review hey I just subscribed I wanted to say keep up the good work and I love your reviews and also I would like to add if you don't mind can you review some new BMWs models such as the new bmw 3 series and others because I have not seen any BMWs reviews on your RU-vid channel hope I did not ask for much thank you
Josh Thompson Dear Josh, thank you for your feedback. I am working on adding BMW to the brands that I test, however I still haven't find the right person to coordinate with BMW. Please stay tuned, I am working on it.
+claire M thanks a lot. Im happy that you enjoyed the video. I did however move to Switzerland since that time, but I have plenty of video reviews that I recorded in the UAE.
