Mercedes-Benz A-Class - should I buy the A180 or A200?
I currently own a Mercedes-Benz A-Class, 2017, A200 AMG Line (Premium) with Night Pack. I have been very happy with this car and have clocked nearly 20,000 miles in the year I have owned it. I am looking to replace this as I don't want the mileage to exceed average and currently it is just below. I want another A-Class and all prices are fairly high and I have a budget around £20,000 and would prefer lower miles as I clock them up. I want a high spec, similar to the one I have. There appear to be more A180s on the market than A200s. What should I expect for my budget and which is better, the A200 or A180?

From memory, there's not a huge difference between the performance of the A180 and A200, although it's worth having a go in each to draw your own conclusions. I'd be more inclined to focus on getting the upgraded infotainment and automatic gearbox that make the A-Class feel and drive like a mini luxury car. Your budget will get you a A180 auto AMG Line with less than 40,000 miles on the clock.
