Well could be that it also is because I generally don't like vans... For me only a good sedan (or some suvs) can give a good, natural and relaxing driving position...

Anyway, A or B are not that bad, but I feel they are not really their Star worth... I don't feel, in a A or B, significantly better in any point than in a Golf V for example. No real premium-feeling. And it is, imo, less comfortable... Sure the finition is better, but that's quite all...

It perfectly could be the little bro of the Touran or of the Golf... A and B-Class are good cars; it is not enough to be a Mercedes for me.

Whereas no one can compare a C-Class and a Passat for the premium-feeling.You really feel you are in a Mercedes.

Only my opinion of course.

anyone know exactly when this is coming out....most places say spring 08 geneva....yet some say october and places like world car fans say on one article paris 08 and another geneva 08 and ones september and ones next month lool...and mercedes UK are trying to tell my parents its not out til next year....lol....yet looking from the pics above i cannot see them hiding it for another year...anyone know? thanks in advance

Well the B-Class is due for a facelift soon, so I think you're right in that this facelifted version won't be coming to us in a year. Let me consult some of my magazines at home. I think one of them mentions when the facelifted B-Class should appear on the market.

thanks dude, the amount of camo it had on when them pics were taken, its less than the cls, sl clc everything thats already been officially announced....just makes no sense lol

Still looking for the magazine...

By the way I'll check Autozeitung and Autobild as they usually have reliable data on these things.
