The B Class without the sunroof is like a house without windows, and that's from a guy whose roof leaked when the car was new! I would not go without it, the car gets too dark inside.

Heated seats are mandatory.

With the Turbo engine, the CVT is OK, but the fuel economy is not as good as it should be IMO. The 5 speed 134 HP version has very good fuel economy for a barge of its size.

Even the 134 HP engine provides more than enough power, enough to easily exceed 200 km/h (don't ask), which in this country is an invitation to jail and car forfeiture, so the Turbo is massive overkill unless you like being able to out-accelerate about 50% of cars on the road (the rest are faster than the Turbo). The Turbo in Canada is limited at 210 km/h (apparently unless you get the sports suspension and the VR tires) but I don't think the 134 HP car is limited at all (I hope to test that soon), so keep that in mind

I've had better-handling sedans, but for a small MPV-shaped vehicle the B is pretty good.

If you think there's a chance you might ever want extra security, get the alarm; it's impossible to retrofit.

Please don't choose silver, black, grey or white.
