2018 Mercedes-Benz CLA 200

We’ve covered the W176 Mercedes-Benz A-Class last week but for those who aren’t fans of hatchbacks, there is an alternative – a used first-generation (C117) Mercedes-Benz CLA. There is, however, a price to pay (literally) for the sexy four-door coupe design, as we will get into it shortly. What makes this generation of the Mercedes-Benz CLA more appealing is the fact that you can’t buy the current-generation CLA via official channels, the ‘regular’ non-AMG CLA at least. This makes the first-gene

No more Mercedes-Benz wagons after 2030 Current generation S206 C-Class Estate and next-gen 2022 E-Class wagon (S214) to be the last Sales of wagons have been falling in all key markets Enthusiasts rave about wagons, but few outside of Europe actually buy one, and for a lot of car manufacturers, the business case for wagons is becoming less and less sustainable. German publication Automobilwoche has learned that Mercedes-Benz will drop all wagons from its line-up by 2030. The recently launched W

We are further sharpening the focus of our business model and product portfolio in o

We’ve previously reported that the Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan (V177) will not be replaced after the current generation model ends. The move is part of Mercedes-Benz Cars’ efforts to streamline its product offerings, focusing on higher margin products. It begs the question, is Mercedes-Benz really going to exit the compact sedan segment entirely? Not at all, according to a recent report from German business publications Automobilwoche.

Last week, we showed you ten expensive-looking cars under RM 100k and some of you think those selections don’t quite shout ‘appearing rich’. Indeed, the Proton X50 and X70 may feel expensive but they’re still a Proton (or Geely) underneath. For this week’s Top Rank Millionaire-Looking Motors (MLM), we’re bumping up the budget to RM 200,000 and unlike the last list, we’ll be focusing only in the used car market. We’ve selected 8 for this list and you can be certain these fine cars will make you g
