  • New car

    Hi all,
    Been on here for the last five years or so. Not been a major contributor but always enjoyed the chat and gleamed lots of useful information.
    I'm finally changing the insignia after 8 years of ownership. It's been a great car and other than a few minor niggles has never let me down.
    I'm buying my first new car in 20 years so really looking forward to it.
    I'll keep looking in every now and then. Thanks for all your contributions and good luck with your cars.

      Mercedes A200 AMG Line Premium.
      I would never have believed that a 1.3 turbo engine could feel so quick.

        Oh nice..post pics when you get it,
        mercs are good cars, not quite up-to a bm,but hey ho..

        If I’m not mistaken that 1.3 kicks out 160 bhp,not to shabby is it.

        enjoy.

          Yes that’s right. 0-60 is 8s which doesn’t sound to extreme but feels very quick in the real world.

              Yes, it’s like the starship enterprise. Search for Mercedes MBUX on YouTube.

                      Thanks guys, it’s going to. be a bit strange going from a large sports tourer to a ‘small’ hatchback.
                      Kids are all grown up and left home now (unless they need something!). No longer need the large family taxi.
