We have the first exterior photo of the 2012 Mercedes B-Class. The new B-Class will debut at Frankfurt in September. We did wonder if Mercedes were trying to keep exterior photos of the 2012 Mercedes B-Class under wraps until it launches at Frankfurt next month. Not much chance of that now the first official exterior photo has leaked out. In case you’re wondering, the […]

It’s being reported that Mercedes will offer the 2012 / 2013 Mercedes A-Class AMG – based on the Mercedes Concept-A – with 350bhp and 4WD.
