The B class is a fairly versatile mid-size MPV-alike. Not exciting, but useful and roomy enough. Nice driving position. Enough oomph in our last one that it felt OK on motorways and around town.
We had 2 of them. Last one was probably a 2014 B200 if I remember correctly. Servicing, even at independents is fairly steep. Had no big problems with it. But parts were typically Mercedes-priced and dealerships while efficient and polite are always keen to identify ‘preventive’ maintenance.
Would’ve got one of the electric ones if they’d still made them. Only reservation I’d have is are you paying for flash stuff that is slightly OTT on such a car?
Edit. Ah! A hand me down. Doh! I didn’t spot that, just read ‘b class’. Take it. nicer than the Skoda. And a practical car.
