A140, a good choice?

[levin]

Hi there,

I'm new here and I'm writing to you from Portugal...

I'm thinking in buying a A-class Mercedes (140) but before that, i'd like to know your opinion about it and also a few things.

1. Is it reliable?
2. Is the maintenance cost high?
3. Fuel consumption (city and high way)

Kind regards from Portugal,

Francisco

Depends What You Use The Car For... I Mean If It Was Just City Driving Then It's Ok, But The A140 Has No Power What So Ever... So For Motorway Or Highway Cruising It's Not A Great Car For That... Other Than That, The Running Cost Of The Car Depends On Your Luck... But Mostly It's Reasonable, Fuel Consumption Is Great For The A140... :D
