The MERCEDES-BENZ B CLASS (2008-12) B170 5DR MPV 1.7 116 SE CVT AUTO is a compact five-door people carrier, sitting between a conventional family hatchback and a larger MPV in the UK used-car market. Its taller shape makes access and cabin space priorities, while the Mercedes badge gives it a more premium feel than many practical rivals. Across 196 mycarcheck checks, this model generated a useful sample: 89 distinct VINs were seen among 196 lookups. The recorded cars averaged around £2,000 in private-sale value and 86,000 miles, with annual use averaging 5,000 miles. The average car had close to three previous keepers, at 2.85. Best for small families and commuters, it offers easy access, cabin room and relaxed automatic driving without a larger people carrier's bulk. Against compact MPV rivals, its premium badge and versatile layout stand out; check condition and service history carefully before committing to a used example.
