In March 2010 I took delivery of a new Mercedes A Class 180 CDI automatic.My car is only 72mm off the ground. That's less than three inches and certainly not enough ground clearance for our road conditions. It cannot cope with speed humps or uneven surfaces without scraping the base of the car. Surprisingly for a supposedly top brand, Mercedes refuses to repair the vehicle or take it back.Put simply,in my opinion, it is not fit for purpose. Think very carefully before considering either the car or the customer care you might want to get from Mercedes.
