Hi and welcome Martin!

Like someone else wrote here above, glad we got someone aware of what's going on under the hood around!

I'm actually saving up for either an A-class or a B-class Merc myself, as we speak. I'll holler if I run into any issues, if/when that time arises!

Nah, seriously, from what I've read they are very reliable cars, and I like the fact that many of them utilize timing chain.

Merry Christmas!
