MERCEDES-BENZ A CLASS (2008-13) A180 3DR HATCHBACK 1.7 BLUEEFFICIENCY 116 EU5 CLASSIC SE

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The MERCEDES-BENZ A CLASS (2008-13) A180 3DR HATCHBACK 1.7 BLUEEFFICIENCY 116 EU5 CLASSIC SE is a compact, premium-minded three-door hatchback, sitting above basic small cars in the UK used market. Its upright shape gives it a distinctive look and a more airy feel than many low, traditional hatchbacks, while its manageable size suits town driving and tight parking.
The A180 pairs a 1.7-litre petrol engine with BlueEfficiency, intended to balance useful performance with sensible fuel use. It is well suited to commuters, couples and first-time premium-car buyers who want an easy-to-drive daily car, though the three-door layout is less convenient for frequent rear-seat access than a five-door rival.
Against Audi A3 and BMW 1 Series, it prioritises cabin comfort over sportiness. mycarcheck.com recorded two look-ups for one VIN, with an average private-sale value of £1,800, mileage of 103,000 and annual mileage of 2,000. Given the small sample, figures are indicative.
