any advantages over standard auto

I drove the CLC220 CDI and the shift paddles are useful in some cases and good for sporty driving, but the 5-speed A/T is pretty good and the engine was torquey so there was rarely a need to manually shift.

But if you're into sporty driving, then the paddle shifts behind the wheel are pretty fun.

Saw a white one today, it looks a lot better in real life, however the tail lights still looks way over sized.

They're quite common now in Munich. I don't like to generalize but most people I see driving them are women in their early to mid 40s.

Life begins at 40.

Seen a couple of these about in London and not a fan of the looks. The front and back are good in isolation but do not fit at all with the sides.
