QUOTE(Mamapapamsia @ Aug 21 2013, 01:57 PM) I booked a250 in june. Loan all approved . Now waiting for the car. Taking ages !! And i heard maybe year end only can get car... Waiting period for the A-Class is 6 months. I hope you won't regret lol. The tech side of that car is really good but the double clutch system sucked big time.  Even on Eco mode the downshift jerks like nobody's business. The auto engine start stop sucked. Even the brake hold position is quite hard to be engaged. Gear shifting is really a problem. Hopefully I wouldn't be a problem for you when you get your ride. |

QUOTE(viruz019 @ Aug 22 2013, 01:43 AM) I personally went and test out the A250. I must say, a very fast car and very exciting one to drive  But as @MengHoi mention, Auto start stop function is horrible..causes too much vibration during start stop which can get really annoying..so turning off eco mode wud be ideal brake hold wise, on my w212, normally can only activate it when on a hill and u gotta push the brake WAY down before it engage..that "it's gonna break soon" feel is there when u do it other than that, it's really a nice car to drive around.. not to forget sexiness..you get attention wherever u go  Pretty much my opinion as well. Have you broke the brake before? Hahaha. Just asking. |

QUOTE(htkaki @ Aug 28 2013, 10:19 PM) I am not the only one. The ECO mode is complete crap especially for our weather condition. Secondly, the jerk. When I tested the A200, I immediately switch it off the moment before I drive it. The A class interior definitely better than the 'everything square' Golf. I didn't know that the 3 door GTi is so bare basic  The jerk is awful with or without the ECO mode. IMO. I wonder whether the double clutches will be a problem after a year or two or not. |
