mercedes benz a160 2011 plate

[Matt11]

Can anyone give me an insight as to what the mercedes Benz a160 is like reliability wise from this age range. Thanks

We have had a 2010 one in the family for ten years. It had a pampered first 10 years with full Mercedes history and 30,000 miles. It's suprising robust and has never gone wrong, paint blemish free.

If I was buying a 15yr old car Id pay just as much attention to how its been treated, serviced etc.

For me, at that age condition and history would be just as important as reliability surveys.

At that age/price Id just buy the best petrol engined Toyota or Honda I could find.

If it's a diesel they are noisy by more modern standards. We have an A200tdi 2007. Not exactly fast either.
