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. doh.gif
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.

I personally went and test out the A250. I must say, a very fast car and very exciting one to drive tongue.gif

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 wink.gif

The Eco starts stop is a nuisance. I have developed the habit of switching it off every time I start my car. It's design to on by default .

yeah, and i ask my local dealer if they can permanently switch it off, apparently they cant do it..

im more interested in the A45 AMG..but waiting for CLA and see whch one wud suit my taste more hehe

Pretty much my opinion as well. Have you broke the brake before? Hahaha. Just asking.

hahaha, i rarely use the Hold function unless I'm super lazy. Wonder how much it would cost if i broke it shocking.gif
