B Klasse pretty good!
I was given a B loaner whilst my GL was in for repair last week. It's not bad, has great view lines all around is is shockingly large inside. Not a bad machine for farting around town at all. Performed awesome on ice with low profile all seasons and traction control. No wonder they can't keep them on the lot in Canada. It's more than just a cheap way to put a star on your driveway, it's a pretty good city car!

When I was in Toronto for Spring Break, saw one zoom past me in the city. After that I wanted to go to a dealership and take one out for a spin, but didn't have time.
Definitely a good looking car IMO. Would love to have one for school with MT rather than the SUV I'm driving.

The fuel economy thing is true: my 5 speed B 200 has a lifetime fuel consumption (measured at the pump) of 7.3 L/100 km. The in dash computer is optimistic by 0.4 L/100 km (it would say 6.9 lifetime). 7.3 is excellent (38.7 MPG imperial for the old-timers).
