Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The MERCEDES-BENZ A CLASS (1998-04) A170 5DR HATCHBACK 1.7 CDI AVANTGARDE is a compact five-door diesel hatchback, offering Mercedes-Benz badge appeal in a city-friendly size. It sits between small city cars and larger family hatchbacks in the UK used-car market, with a tall shape that makes its cabin feel roomier than its footprint suggests.
mycarcheck.com has recorded just two checks, covering one distinct VIN, so its figures are a small snapshot rather than a reliable market-wide guide. Those checks show an average private-sale valuation of £400, average recorded mileage of 163,000 miles, annual mileage of 4,000 miles and five previous keepers. Condition and history matter greatly at this age.
Commuters, couples and small families may value its easy parking and five-door access. The diesel suits regular journeys, while its upright cabin and premium image set it apart from rivals such as the Ford Focus. Check condition and history carefully, closely.
