2003 Mercedes-Benz A-Class A160 Classic review from Australia and New Zealand
"Sensible transport"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
Dealer service appalling at best. Failed to check battery or flat spare tyre at first service - yet itemised and charged for this work.
General comments?
Good get around town car.
Slow, expensive to purchase.
Safe and secure.
Ideal vehicle for seventies grandmother.
