2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA 180 Urban Edition 5-door Petrol Manual

Description

So, I’ve had this 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLA 18-0 Urban Edition for a couple of years now, and honestly, it’s been one of those cars that just feels right. I bought it new from Macklin Motors in Dunfermline back in 2018, and it’s been a solid daily driver ever since—city driving, weekend trips, even a few long runs to the coast.

It’s got 56,788 miles on it now, which I know sounds like a lot, but the car’s held up really well. The 1.6-litre turbo engine is smooth and responsive—no jolts, no fuss. It’s not a track machine, but it’s got that Mercedes composure you’d expect: confident, quiet, and just a bit more presence than your average compact SUV.

Inside, it’s got that classic Mercedes feel—good quality materials, clean lines, and a touch of elegance without being flashy. The 8-inch touch screen is still working fine, and I’ve got sat-nav, DAB radio, Bluetooth, and all the smart features you’d want. The seats are comfy, especially with the comfort pack, and the heated mirrors and ambient lighting in the headrests add a nice little touch.

I’ve kept it well maintained—regular servicing, tyres rotated, and I even have the tyre sealant kit handy. The alloy wheels are black with a high sheen, and they look great even when parked in the driveway. The reversing camera with parking lines is a real life-saver, especially when I’m pulling out of tight spaces.

I’ve never really driven a Mercedes before, but I can tell you—it doesn’t feel like a luxury car in the traditional sense. It’s practical, it’s refined, and it just makes your commute feel a bit better.

I’m moving to Newbridge, Caerphilly County Borough, and I’m selling it because I’m looking to simplify my car collection. It’s been a great companion over the years, and I don’t want to keep it around just for storage.

The price is £11,567.70—fairly low for a car with this model and mileage, especially one that’s still in solid shape. If you're interested, I’m happy to chat or show it around. Just let me know.

— Me, a regular guy who just wanted a car that didn’t scream “luxury” but still felt like it belonged in the right place.
