1998 Mercedes-Benz A-Class Avantgarde review from Norway
"Practical, stylish and quality!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gearbox broke (bad noise) at 70.000km. Fixed under warranty.
Fuel gage never displayed correctly; the dealer changed the sensor three times.
General comments?
Spacious, comfortable, practical car with a modern look and feel.
Great in winter time with anti-everything as standard.
