Why would I suit you a B? You'd suit a 1 series
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was looking at a 1 Series Coupe, as stated, but interiors are rubbish
A-class AMG look decent. Not fan of the B-class.
I drove a 2.2D A-class (rental) but I wasn't a big fan though.
The car looked heavier than it was. Not great when there are crosswinds.
A 45 amg.. Are they powerful?

Yeah, someone suggested earlier that you change it 'The Car Thread' or something...
It's odd, as there isn't an awful lot of crossover between car and football fans...people tend to be one or the other so this thread is good for us.
Looking forward to when I get my new car and go onto the 'Manual or Automatic?' thread that Arab did a few years ago... where we argued with VC for days about the pros and cons of an auto

The've stopped the production of the1 serie coupe since 2012 I think. It has now be replaced by the 2-serie.
See merc have copied BMW and Audi with the AMG line models
Ah man. Don't know if you read. Drove my brothers golf r on the weekend. Manual transmission just ruins it for me.. Lovely car though.

Are they powerful?
Instead of a 63, which they put in the larger models, in the A class they use the 45... 380bhp ffs
The 8 speed auto in the BMW is superb

Yeah, as I said... it's the range-topping equivalent of the C63, E63 etc... they can't put the 63 in that little hatchback though
I like my small soccermom SUV. It's automatic so I can safely drink my iced coffee while driving.

I'll be back on the Arsenal board slagging of Wenger, Giroud and co..

That's what I meant. Back in the 70s and 80s Jags were right up there but once Ford and now Tata took over it's been in decline. The new XF, XE and XJ are much better than the horrendous x-type, s-type.
--------------
You must be out of your mind.
Yes, the worst thing to happen to Jaguar was it's takeover by Ford, however, one of the best things to happen to Jaguar Land Rover is the takeover by Tata.
Basically they've given them the autonomy to create some fantastic cars, and invest massively in the UK economy with it. Jaguar Land Rover are the only cars that are designed and manufactured in the U.K., and soon won't have to rely on anyone for any engines as that new Wolverhampton engine plant is brilliant - state of the art.
The X type was build on a Mondeo platform - absolute travesty that was, glad to say it's like another world now.

They do but it is just an A-class dressed as an AMG. The equivalent of the S-line from Audi if you will.
AMG Line... different from the A45 AMG though...
As you say: an S Line is not an S.
What's the best anyone here has had out of a tank of fuel?
I drove from Teesside to Brighton and back with a slight diversion on way home, doing a steady 80 with everything on (radio, air con etc) on a single tank and still had 35 miles showing I the dash when I got back
That was £56 worth of diesel
I managed to fill my 55 litre tank with 58 litres once, it was so dry...
Most miles I've done on my current Golf (2.0 GT TDi 170) though is about 610. Usually get a solid 540 out of 55L.
