A lethal concoction of brutal power in a small shell, AMG's first hot hatch proves to be a force to be reckoned with.

Comfort and Style`
The first conti car that I have own and I must say that it is very value for money. Responsiveness of the engine and a very nice design on the outside make it a very cool car for the executive.
Test drove the A180 style awhile back.
Exterior:
The new baby merc looks much better than its predecessor. The updated front grill looks sporty and the overall looks will attract the younger crowd. The hidden tail pipes of the style version is abit of a let down on an otherwise sporty looking hatch.
Interior:
As a small hatch, there is nothing to shout about regarding interior space. Sits 4 comfortably with the rear seats slightly hard and lower roof space. Not really liking the half leather seats and dashboard is mainly plastic. Dials on the dashboard feels cheap. Memory seats for both front passengers is good though. Boot is rather small, not something uncommon for a hatch this size.
Drive:
I love the driving position but the position of the brake pedal is quite high and needs some time to get used to. Step on the gas pedal and the acceleration feels sluggish. Was told by the SE to step harder to feel the power. One thing i don't really like is the shifter is located behind the steering wheel which i thought is only found on those old school lorries and vans. This is hard to see which mode you are in but the plus side is that it frees up space on the centre console where you normally find the stick shift.
Ride quality is good with the suspension slightly on the stiffer side. Steering feedback is responsive and the car feels stable at higher speed. The sound proofing in the cabin is quite good too.
Features:
The basic A class is packed with nifty safety features including collision warning and aiding system and also the auto parking system.
What else can I say when I have already owned couple of Merc before this...
This was actually a replacement of my B200 to the A200 Urban....
Exterior - it's sexy and appear ready-to-go
Interior - I have to admit, it's a little bit tight compare to the B200. However, this ain't a family drive so no bothered....
Drive - Nice acceleration, but I seriously prefer much softer setup for the suspension....guess this is more for hard cornering drive.....
This drive is more for my wife....so I only get to drive it once awhile....
