Not perfect for the "Marque"

I purchased this Mercedes after owning from new a 2002 Citroen Xsara 1.6 SX
The Citroen never once put a foot wrong and in a way i was sorry to se it go
I covered nearly 60,000 miles and on a run could average over 50mpg.
Slightly disappointed in the B class as for what i thought was a Special equipment model, it lacked
a spare wheel, not able to lay the rear seats down flat, no centre arm rest in the rear seats, essential
i think for passengers on a l lengthy journey especially if there is only 1,also no pockets or fold down trays
on the backs of the front seats
On a long trip i can achieve over 50mpg i was pleased with that.
But very diappointed with the road noise coming into the cabin, upon making enquiries (to late) i found
out that they are renowned for this, a possibilty for the cause is the run flat tyres, i would be interested to know if there is a cure lessening the noise.
I haven't found the front fog lights yet,are there any?
