Hi All, Not posted in a while…hope everyone’s doing well. The last time I looked to change cars, the E class lineup didn’t look that great so have been on the dark side running a 530D. looking at a swap early next year, so started to look at the market and the new E looks quite good. What I’m...

I would say the GLA to me is a bigger car than an A. we have 5 people in it sometimes, 4 adults and 1 child. It’s snug but not uncomfortable.

We have a GLA 220 cdI, its A 65 plate bought new, the model was pretty new when we bought it. so went into ownership with very little info about the model. It has been a reliable car. No major issues. We dont do many miles in it, about 6k/year. Its had 1 new set of tyres, we had to replace the...

I do this every time I lock the car (wife's has the keyless go) in the belief that this would stop the key transmitting. I hope that's what double clicking does! One little step in stopping these types of robberies!!! Pete

Sorry to hear this and I hope you recover the car intact. Its a scarier world we live in today :( All the best Pete

This is what I thought Smart320...but, wouldn't you see an alert in the dash? nothing from the systems to say I have a low batt. Cheers Pete

Hi All, This morning Ive noticed that the seat heating wasn't working and could not move the seats (power seats) from the current setting to a different saved memory position. Whats even stranger is that after about 10 mins of being started the passenger side seat heating and seat controls seem...

Many happy returns :)

I like it :) We were looking to replace the wife's GLA with a GLC this year, maybe hold out to see how the EQC is received. Its also the only other EV/Hybrid that I would like to own (the other being the i8 LOL). Times are changing and its time to clean up and switch to EV's I guess. I will miss...

Mactech - Indeed! I checked both MB used and other Autotrader, not many about. The argument against diesel is one that cannot be ignored. Especially if you live in a city. So, I cant really see me with a diesel when I swap my current car. I like the big diesels, unfortunately we are at the end...

Hi All - I came across the above model in my search for a next car for me. I like the idea of a large enough petrol that you can use when out and about and still have the electric motor for the city running. Looks like a fantastic combination. Probably a bit niche given the size of the engine :(...

Very nice. I am seriously considering one of these beasts...maybe a year down the line. Enjoy! Pete

Car stolen without using a key OR Car stolen without using a key Does this affect all keyless go cars? ours is a 65 reg, should I be worried? Pete

We have a GLA220D. I have tried to listen to your audio cant seem to pickup the rattle you mention. Ours has a different rattle, coming from the centre, below the air vents. From somewhere around the navigation/media buttons are located. MB have had the car in a number of times but haven't been...

Nice car! My son watches your vids on youtube. Welcome to MBClub! Pete

Thanks for all your responses guys. We try to be careful when abroad so agree with not going to dodgy areas late night etc. Especially with young kids were tucked up in bed early ish. Me and the wife normally have late dinner once the kids are in bed. So always good to stay somewhere where room...

Hi Everyone - Were looking to take a week's break around the half term, talking about where to go, Marrakech popped up yesterday. Sounds interesting and its somewhere we've never been. I'm sure people on here would have travelled here. I am looking for some advice on where to stay, where not to...

Finally! hope its good news next week Shane63

So, an update - I went for the 530D in the end. Will post some pics in the other marques section once I have downloaded the pics to my laptop. Its a carbon black (looks dark blue in the sunlight or parked up in the garage under lights). The ride is not bad, similar to my old estate. Seats are...

Hi Shane63 - My experience ordering a GLA for my wife last year was nothing but positive. Ours got delivered ahead of schedule IIRC. Ordered end of Oct and delivered on 31/12/15. We were supposed to have taken delivery in Jan. We however ordered at my local dealership. Not sure how that works...
