Just got a 2nd Hand A-Class

Hello all, new here having lurked for a period of time whilst researching various options. I have just taken delivery of an 05 reg A180 Avantgarde - and so far really happy with it!

Very useful information on the website - so thanks everyone!

Hi and welcome.

We just took delivery of a 5 month old A180 Elegance a couple of weeks ago and are enjoying too. After owning a Ford C-Max for a while there is a welcome improvement in quality. Good mpg so far too which was one of our main reasons for buying, should improve even more once things loosen up.

Well, well; one of you has an Elegance 180cdi and one has the Avantgarde 180cdi. What exceptionally good taste you both have! My wife has one. I have the other.

My brother has an A160cdi manual and my daughter has an A180cdi Avantgarde. Couple of links you might like: -

I recently had a A150 Avantegarde for a short while. It exceeded my expectations completely.

The auto/engine combination was so smooth I wondered if it was a CVT.

Oddly the Auto box (which is CVT BTW) is so smooth the changes are all but imperceptible. Excellent piece of kit.

And my significant other half recently bought an 06 A170 Elegance, Auto, Dune Gold. Nice and comfortable to drive which I'm seldom allowed to do but am allowed to clean it for her !!!!

When my wife had the C-Max she was content for me not to lavish as much attention on it as my car, now she too has an MB I no longer have that excuse .

Welcome and congratulations on an excellent purchase.

I have a 'slightly modified' A160 CDI A/G auto. You'll find lots of help and advice here plus a whole bunch of friendly people.
