Uni graduate soon (21), will be entering Westpac as an Investment Analyst.

Private use, travels around 13K a year. Most of the time My girlfriend and i in the car.

Only considers SUV, Coupe or Sedan.

Not looking for a performance car but can't be underpowered.

Priority in decending order LOOK>Quality>Comfort>Performance>Technology>Resell>Safety

Currently considering MB GLC Coupe>C class coupe> CLA/ AudiS3.

EDIT: CX3 wasn't mine to begin with. It's more like a family car where I did the majority of driving but ultimately my mom bought it for my sister.

Camry was already sold.

what a waster of Ozbargain space. If you don't agree or dislike this OP, why don't just ignore and keep life going on?

I'm literally having heart palpitations re-reading over this cancerous forum post.

    Good choice, it shows sensibility. ;)
    
    Otherwise, a fully spec'd KIA would be good.
    
    Did he still have his P's, just for a Petrol Turbo?

I have GLC deisel and delighted with my purchase. Ticks all your boxes. I would not go for the Coupe because it defeats the purpose somewhat of a SUV (functionality).

  That's great.
  
  Any annoyances with this one?
  
  Or is it perfect in every way?
  
  Cheers.
