I prefer the B250 over a GLA250!
Just wanted to post about how great a car the B250 is. I’ve owned two, a 2014 B250 (drove for 4 years and ~80,000 km) and a 2018 B250 (drove for 2 years and ~20,000 km). They are fantastic cars.
I wouldn’t trade it for a GLA250, which I rented and found nowhere near as nice to drive. B250 has better brakes and a stiffer chassis, and overall feels better engineered than the GLA250. Not to mention interior passenger and luggage space is way way better in the B250. Actually, the B has more luggage room, in some ways, than my G550.
I’ve had 0 issues with mine, and not a squeak or rattle.
So for anyone who is contemplating a new or used B and also a GLA, buy the B. They are awesome.

B180 (W245), A-180 (W176) & GLC-250d (X253) <previously GL320CDI (X164)>
Hey mate
B-class is a mum's car for the school run. And it is BIG.
The GLA is for the younger ones, I think.
The GLA is just a sporty version of the A-Class.
The missus had her B180 (W245) since 2010 and clocking 205,000kms. She bought a new A180 (W176) back then, but still could not let go the B180.
