I once had an minor damage to my bumper, but thanks to some fake inlets the repair bill nearly tripled.

Props to Merccedes for making the GLS feel more like an S class rather than a bigger GLE

I really enjoyed this review. Rory is definitely in his element with this one, he’s so relaxed and comfortable in the GLS that is until he got backed into…I would like to see more relaxed content like this from Rory. This video made my day, it was super thoughtful and therapeutic. Not every video needs to be a high octane hypercar racing down a track at 300 MPH 🏁

I have never wanted a base model, steel wheeled, black bumpered Dacia more than i do after watching this. But much love to the Auto Trader team for their content.

Anyone else notice Rory just yeeted his phone to the back 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[akus]

Nice one, I hope you didn't forget your phone inside the arm rest on the second row (7:20) 😂

Fake exhaust pipes; fake inlets; cheap plastic here and there but £100K. What a bargain indeed!

The Mercedes Benz GLS is a TANK. I was once driving My Mercedes and I saw the new GLS parked next to me. I felt like a midget.

Imagine if BRABUS would fit it with a 6.0-liter bi-turbo V12, and obviously, it would probably need a top-speed limiter, however, it would suit the massive presence of this SUV.

[VirtualGabz]

the kids hand on the exhaust absolute gold more of this guy autotrader !

[beatlessale]

As ever the irony of these monster SUVs, is that they’ll probably spend most their time in an urban environment…..another great review tho

Gorgeous vehicle, perfect for where I am living.
Who else had a minor stroke when Rory slammed the center armrest and thought "THE PHONE !!"

[ingodwetrust]

Hello! After watching some of your car review videos, I think it's your way of speaking or explaining things that makes your channel so special. Very professional.
Congratulations 👏🏻

[zeberday]

Couldn’t disagree more about having massive SUVs in the UK, they don’t even fit in parking spaces. I was literally trapped in my Mini between a RR and an X7 the other week haha

[shaunm]

Fantastic review Rory - very comprehensive - thank you.

[Endorion_YTC]

As a proud owner of the predecessor GLS X167, this vehicle is a beast. Drives lovely and surely draws subtle attention. This new additon to the GLS is even better for it's refreshed model. This isn't a new model it's a facelift. A very good facelift.

[ISuperTed]

Perfect for people who are making up for a lack of size in other areas

[teddymuscles]

that intro...lmao...why we love you Rory

[pippipster]

Looking forward to being blinded by one of these in the middle of the night.
