Why GLA 250 is very much cheaper than C class 250?
Is it because the GLA is a lower standard than the C class?

C200 is extremely comfortable. Interior looks like a million bucks. Merc downside is its gearbox. The gearbox nvr feels as fast or snappy as a VW dsg or Bmws 8 speeder.

3 series interior is boring and old. But the driving feel is excellent. Steering weight abit light and does not feel planted. Performance wise, BMW trumps the Merc. The 3 series feels more energetic and more willing to go faster.

The Merc is more of a comfortable cruiser.

But the Merc wins hands down on refinement and looks.

BMW has 5 years free service . Merc u need to pay for every service which costs a bomb. So the choice is in your hands...

BMW 's interior is so boring! From E36 till F30 also similar design!  No comment as I have yet to test drive it! Only downside is the workmanship of MBM ! I heard rattling sounds is common! Still not rectified from w204. Sigh!

New batch of vw are seldom happen breakdown issue. Especially the 2014 batch onward, I wouldn't mind to get one if I can afford it since the handling is really good lol.

Thought jb only has one outlet selling vw? The one next to see and see! The only vw I will get would be the passat cc! Superb gearbox!  What model of vw so exp that cost 300k? Touareg?

which car did you take?

spacious cabin?
u sure u bought a BMW 

my household has f30 320 and f20 118
i don't think spacious is a word i would use to describe them

don't so butthurt ALeUNe it is an open discussion not pin pointing u 

F34 vs F30 vs F31



as you can see the silhouette of the f34 and f31 has a higher roof line, this probably helps with the perception of space.

i've always felt 3-series are snug (not cramped) with a sports car like cabin (lower roof/shorter chair to pedal distance)



you can see from this comparison the f34 is higher than the f31, so i think i understand what u mean by space.

however when talking about space/roominess i'd automatically think of merc's not bimmer's because merc's usually have the said two points of higher roof lines and longer distance from chair to pedal to give the feeling of roominess plus width (distance from door handle to door handle).

i can agree with you f34 is much improvement over f30 and e90 in terms of space provided but to me it is 2/3 as i feel width wise it's not longer than f30/f31.

i could be wrong as i'm basing all this on feel (and my body size) than actual manufacturers figures
