No, no, no, no, NO! Carsguide didn’t ask such an errant question as posed in the headlines above. We here at DCB HQ posed the question on their behalf. To make the B Class sound more enthralling. Because let me be honest, if I was intending to buy a new Mercedes, the entry-level model of choice begins with the C Class and then you go upwards accordingly.

The new A Class is very stylish but only in saloon form, and it’s cramped at the rear so. However, there are those so inclined who believe a Mercedes B Class is the A+ standard of MPVs. MPV? To me, MPV spells “dead-in-the-water”. Would you really be happy to tell your friends you own an MPV?

The Mercedes B Class looks sad, sounds sad, and is a career-ending decision. To have an unwarranted desire to own such a vehicle is an act of heresy. Maybe you’re happy I can’t really say otherwise, other than dispensing my professional opinion… I am not a professional.
