2000 Mercedes-Benz A-Class A160 Classic review from UK and Ireland
"A very practical, cheap to run Mercedes"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has really gone wrong with the car in the time I have had it.
General comments?
The car is very practical, and the ability to remove the rear seats is a great feature. I can even fit items such as fridges and wide screen televisions in the back, saving on delivery costs.
The seats are comfortable on long or short journeys.
An annoying feature is the lack of some form of roof gutter, which causes water to land on you when you open the door after being out in the wet.
The dashboard can also be a bit creaky.
