Description
Mercedes-Benz A180 CDI Avantgarde SE Automatic | W169 Facelift | Cosmos Black Metallic | 2012 (61 Plate)
The facelift W169 A-Class represents a period when Mercedes-Benz engineered compact cars with the same philosophy as its larger saloons — durability, comfort, intelligent packaging, and effortless long-distance usability. Today, finding a genuinely well cared for example with strong history and desirable specification has become increasingly difficult.
This A180 CDI Avantgarde SE Automatic is an exceptionally smart example, finished in Cosmos Black Metallic with Anthracite Black Leather / Bastogne Cloth interior, combining understated elegance with the renowned efficiency and reliability of Mercedes-Benz diesel engineering.
Powered by the proven 2.0-litre turbo diesel engine paired with the smooth Mercedes-Benz automatic transmission, the A180 CDi delivers impressive fuel economy, excellent motorway refinement, and the reassuring solidity that defined Mercedes-Benz during this era. The elevated driving position, compact dimensions, and remarkably spacious interior make the W169 one of the most practical premium hatchbacks ever produced.
Having covered 77,000 miles from new, this example presents in fantastic condition throughout and has clearly been maintained to a very high standard. The bodywork retains an excellent appearance, the interior remains beautifully preserved, and the factory alloy wheels are completely unmarked.
Importantly, the vehicle benefits from Comprehensive Mercedes-Benz and specialist service history and has just undergone a Major Service B at the current mileage, including the all-important automatic transmission service — a crucial maintenance item often overlooked, but highly valued by knowledgeable Mercedes-Benz buyers.
