It sits in the UK’s compact SUV market, appealing to buyers wanting Mercedes style and practicality without moving up to a larger 4x4. Diesel power and a six-speed manual suit regular journeys. Mycarcheck.com records 490 look-ups covering 174 distinct VINs, a useful sample of interest in this used GLA. The average private-sale valuation was £14,300, with recorded mileage averaging 44,000 miles and annual use 9,000 miles.
