True, the B is not only designed by engineers but also by accountants. And I fear that the last group had the biggest vote.
But still. The B doesn't compare to the other mercedes', but then again it wouldn't be fair to compare a Golf to a Passat or a Scenic to a Vel-Satis.
I still think that compared to other cars in it's class the B stands out very well. The car should be compared to the Touran, C-Max and Scenic, and although is not a knock-out winner I still think that the B wins on points.
