Buying experience
Type of dealer you bought from?
Independent
Did you buy this car new?
No
What price did you pay?
£5,500
When did you buy the car?
February 2010
Did you get a good deal and why?
It was over £1000.00 cheaper than any other A-class I could find in Cornwall. For some reason "A Cornish Car" or “A Woman Owner " mean a premium price
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
Had the old A-class W168 that was as reliable as any other car I have owned
What was the dealer like?
Excellent. Did the deal over the phone and he delivered the car (200 Miles)for the cost of a train ticket home

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
A very nice drive. I don’t understand people moaning about it being under powered as you don’t buy this car to race around a track; you buy it because it performs well when needed and is very comfortable with good visibility and 100% reliability
What's it like to park?
Easy, if you cant park this car without sensors you should not be driving!
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Had a problem with rust on the inside bottom edge of doors but Mercedes replaced all doors and panels under warranty, not bad for a 4 year old car that now looks new.
What's most practical about your car?
Load space
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Its a car, a tool that does what its meant to do, get from A to B
