now the reality kicks in... this MB is nothing more than CX5 or X-trail... offers nothing more than any SUV from $29k (yes leather seats)... so what is the point of difference here... its really just about badge snobs thinking what more they getting for their money... funny how mind works

To be fair though, if you actually compare the specs, the equivalent Mazda cx-5 spec is the akera which is around 49k (diesel, though that had AWD), so its not as unreasonable as you make it out. And its got a bigger boot, and the servicing interval is twice as long so running costs will likely be comparable.

I've just taken 1 for a 200k test run today. It's well built, has good head & legroom front & rear, and a decent sized boot. With the back seats folded its a ripper. With the amount of standard features in the package, makes this good value, when compared to other models in the Merc range that charge extra for Nav,Xenons, reaview camera etc. Great torquey diesel, good handling, excellent economy, 5.4 l/100km on a nice easy drive, this car should be on your list. Only downsides are slightly clunky upshifts/downshifts, and that fake leather or ARTICO. When you are paying $50k plus on road ,leather should be standard.Mercedes should be on a winner!

Not a real Benz, PERIOD! What ever happened to the Benz i liked that lived in the 70s/80s that made the best cars on the planet regardless of cost and never bothered with the cheap end of the market?
