2009 Mercedes-Benz B-Class reviews

Mercedes-Benz B-Class B180SE 2009

Having moved down from a Honda Accord Exec, I was somewhat concerned that I would be disappointed with the B class, which we bought for its practical load carrying and its ability to fit into our garage. It does not disappoint at all. The performance is completely adequate given that the roads are not conducive to sporty driving these days. It is comfortable with good vision, and more cabin space than the Accord had. The handbrake does not come to hand easily, and the single left hand stalk for wipers and indicators is somewhat awkward and takes a bit of getting used to, but features such as integral child seats, automatic parallel parking, dual height load floor, folding wing mirrors are all good. Electronic display is well designed with a good useful range of information. We had leather and myrtle trim and it makes a nice finish to a well built car, which is very economical to run.
