Why Purchase an A200 AMG?

What's the obsession with this particular car on OzB?! Is it a good car? The new shape is coming out in a few months time though….

Isn't it supposed to be called an A200 with the AMG-package rather than an A200 AMG? Explain pls!

  • Ring MB I am sure they can explain better than anyone on OB

    Only A class worth getting is the A45 AMG. C63 AMG is the better way to go though

    As an investment

    • +1

      A very high yield one at that.

    They're a good investment if you work for Westpac

    Careful, Broden bought 40 of them when they were on clearance

      Feel free to not park when asked at maccas while waiting for coffee.

      You can’t just park them anywhere, even if your friend is dizzy.

      They are not an SUV, so you can’t park them in loading zones.

      You will need to sort out what you need to keep in the car. Mum won’t hold your hand on that one.

      Get the one with “all the bells and whistles”

      Don’t do your homework and after a service, feel free to complain about the cost.

      Don’t worry, you won’t need insurance, just solid advice from strangers on a forum works just as well…

      • And booked love to steal them for their mums.

  • I prefer my old CLS, so understated, bit dated but still goes.. dont really like the new Mercs

  • It goes as fast as any other AMG… In a school zone.

    Ps. Whoosh.

  • Until Merc provide better customer service after a sale I would stay away from the brand. Hopefully ACC will pull these guys up as well. They will not fix warranty items without you pushing your rights. You are paying extra for an AMG styling pack on top of the normal A200. There are better value cars out there. You are paying for the badge. Some people cant get past that.

  • I witnessed the original thread lol, but to answer the title when taken literally. The only legitimate reason anyone could have to buy that car is if they really like it for some reason.

  • It's like the bikies jokes around here. Old joke that used to be funny, but now way overused.

    Lol, yes. Only the AMG A45 is a real AMG. This one is a normal A-class with cosmetic trim pieces.

  • I went to mb showroom for allnew a200 i added all packages vision,communications, seat,amg line sports package… everything comes for 64800 aud i haggled until 56000…i came back .
    . They kept calling me … i realizedthat i have to haggle more like 50k ….
