been looking at 2nd hand a-classes for a while really smart motor for the money especially the red stitched interiors.

The old/current A-class is pretty bad.

very bad
plastic interior
poor traction
small boot
no legroom in the back seats
no headroom for a driver that is 6ft 2in+
the list goes on.
the new 2019 model fixes ALL the bad points that were bad in the previous generations, and adds more specs (LCD dual infographics, 18in wheels, keyless, etc.. all as STANDARD)

Yeah it's what it should have been in the first place. Just waiting to see what it's like in person. Are they in dealers at all yet?

You guys get 48 hour test drive?! Wow lucky..
In the US you get like a 5-10 minute test drive and they come along with you and tell you where to go. Basically go in a circle and come back to the dealer.. it's useless
looks the part, but handles like a tank
pretty sure looks take a back seat when car runs poorly.

Well, depends where really. Places like Mercedes, BMW, etc should let you but not all will. It's getting better though I think.
The interior is very "plasticky" out-dated and cheap feeling for the price. Compare it to Audi and BMW for instance, they are just better quality.
Gone are the days were Mercedes etc were catered for only those who had deep pockets. They used to be for the executives and lets say "above average salary earner".
But with competition getting tough, they expanded bringing Merc to the masses in more affordable ways and this is the outcome. Maybe they are cutting costs in the wrong ways throwing in these plastics bits n bobs.

Hmm I just think they were lazy with the A-Class. Mercedes is no more premium than BMW or Audi in my opinion. The 2019 A-Class is a huge step up in comparison.
