Mercedes A class 1997 reviews
Pros: The main thing is not to be beaten: check the beams at the radiator, the sills from underneath, the boot at the spare wheel - if there is no rust or deformation, then OK. There should be no marked parts - paint patches, markers, numerical inscriptions - that would indicate that the parts have been replaced. Do not buy with bad rims. If there are no such signs - the car is SUPER, reliable, comfortable, economical, you can love it.
Cons: Women's cars - often bought glued together after minor bumps, repaired after minor defects, but if they have been traumatised - rust, broken geometry and the problems that can cause. I had a motor cushion rupture every month because the frame was bent. The other one is OK. Repair only with original parts- then it will last a long time.

Pros: A very comfortable and reliable machine. My Merry pulled me out of both hills and mud. I drove on forest roads and highways all over Latvia. Roomy - you can fold down the back seats (or take them out altogether) and feel like you're in a minibus. Of course you need to maintain and repair it. But it IS a MERCEDES!

Pros: Light, nimble, maybe even more women have benefited from car. Like fact that car is not to sit down, but up. Consequently, good visibility. Roomy, sit comfortably even 190cm a tall man, still remain in place from ceiling. Very nice compact car.
