When did the new Mercedes a class come out?
From the moment the new Merc A-class concept broke cover back in April 2011 Mercedes made it clear that here was a step-change, a car to lower the average age of the Merc buyer by, ooh, 50 years or so. Out goes the dumpy ice-cream tub styling of its predecessor, in comes a muscular, snub-nosed Golf-baiter.
