Pineappled Neutral Newbie May 31, 2016 Share May 31, 2016 When coe was at 60k plus in early 2015, A180 (the previous model) was going at around 135-136k, with 4k overtrade and 4k service credits Based on price, seems little change even though coe is now 10k lower If really interested, should try negotiate for higher trade in value No keyless is a little turn off though some feel that having keys are better Somehow women like hatchback more than sedan, so A180>A3 not surprising Wonder if there is a biological basis for this. May be hatchback appears more feminine and stylish Think the Volvo v40 cross country is one of the best hatchbacks in its class They never move the prices on those Cars.... Dunno why they can justify that price! I went down to BMW before after that COE dump the other time and they refused to budge. I really love the shape. The reviews mentioned this car quite hard though... Any feedback? ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The b class felt like a van never tried the B before. personally don't really like the shape of a B class and A looks much better for me personally! actually if budget allows, top up another 10-20k to get the GLA , looks a sexy car.

Pineappled Neutral Newbie June 1, 2016 Share June 1, 2016 Am I the only one who doesn't like that sporty headrest for the front passenger? Damn hard to see if you're seated behind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vwguy77 3rd Gear June 4, 2016 Share June 4, 2016 Am I the only one who doesn't like that sporty headrest for the front passenger? Damn hard to see if you're seated behind. I have the exact same thought. It's just too damn big that it creates a somewhat claustrophobic feeling in the car. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toe_toe7 1st Gear August 30, 2016 Share August 30, 2016 Is it advisable to get a second hand A170 with 200k mileage? Fully agent maintained.. Anything to take note? TIA 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dungdn93 August 30, 2016 Share August 30, 2016 The galleries are packed to ask exactly how much din more commercial. Will go test drive the A200 available. Many devices, power, better fuel economy, more than a little credibility, and the same road tax. Why ever wanted MFA MFA 180 if 200 is cheaper, unless death Cat A death wish?

I think buying MFA180 cars is nonsense... but there are so many of them, simply because they are Cat A and thus represent the cheapest way to flaunt the triple-point star.

Anderang 2nd Gear September 5, 2016 Share September 5, 2016 (edited) I was told by my SE that the 5k service credits cannot be converted to equivalent upfront cash discount. But i remembered some guy in this forum mentioned he actually did it. So any advice from bros here? Edited September 5, 2016 by Anderang Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heman75 Supercharged September 5, 2016 Share September 5, 2016 Comparing A3 and A 180 handling, I think A3 and A class is on par. Power wise A3 is much better than A180, yet to try A200. A180 has more room (head and leg) at the rear seats. A180 got bigger storage space and more compartments at the front. A180 got electric memories seats for driver and front passenger; A3 need to pay to upgrade. Both no keyless. A 180 comes with 17" rims vs A3 16" rims. Car boot, the A3 is bigger compare to hatchback A180. A3 got nice LED headlight and DRL front and rear, A 180 only Halogen lamps. A3 leather seats vs A180 synthetic leather with fabric sports seats. A180 no rear aircon too. Reliability, servicing cost and resale value I think Merc should be better than Audi. That is why i bought an A for my wife after considering above. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
