Are they only in europe or somthing because i have never heard of a A-Class. the funny thing was there was like 4 people in it and it was so small lol. any info?

Idd, compared to a ForTwo an A-class is a big car

btw, nurbrun the car is most famous of its failure during an elk-test, executed by some journalists. Mercedes recalled all exsisting A-classes at that moment to instal a ESP-system on them. And from that moment on all A-classes had ESP as standard.

This summer they just gave it a complete makeover here in Europe. The new A-class (W169) looks like this:








Edit: sorry SPEEDKILLAR, I didn't noticed you already posted a pic of the new A-class. I mistook it for your signature pic ops: ops:

My brothers wife drives one. 1st generation.

I've driven it a few times. A nice car for city driving.

I think the 2nd generation looks realy great.

Nice clean lines. Probably the nicest car in its class. imo
