MERCEDES-BENZ A CLASS (2005-08) A170 3DR HATCHBACK 1.7 SPECIAL EDITION AUTO
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The MERCEDES-BENZ A CLASS (2005-08) A170 3DR HATCHBACK 1.7 SPECIAL EDITION AUTO is a compact three-door hatchback with an automatic gearbox and a premium-minded feel. It occupies a useful middle ground between basic city cars and larger family hatchbacks, bringing Mercedes-Benz badge appeal to a manageable size for everyday UK driving.
It’s suited to commuters and couples wanting automatic ease and an upmarket cabin in a car simple to park. Its upright shape uses the footprint well, while the Special Edition adds appeal. Against small hatchback rivals, it is a distinctive, comfort-focused alternative, not a sporty choice for everyday motoring.
