Looking at getting one as my company car but haven't got to drive one yet.
My main concern was how comfy are the seats over a long journey? I'll be in it for a good few hours a day and don't want something that has rock hard seats!

Thanks!

James Hunt used to have a van, preferred it to his S-class, by all accounts.

We have one on order for June delivery and just hope the seats are comfortable as my wife has just had back surgery. Ordering 'blind' has been a bit of a gamble! ....

Test drove one yesterday and the seats were fine, albeit was only in them for an hour or so. Having the fully electric seats probably helped as well. I suffer from back issues and that's what I'm going for. The ride on 19" wheels was OK as well, but you could also keep with 18s to improve comfort levels further.

I don't know about the A35 but I've driven both a new A180 and A200 A-Class. One was the "AMG" trim spec with seats/wheels.

I thought they both rode superbly if I'm honest. But the seats...... they had to be the most uncomfortable seats I've ever sat in. Very uncomfortable.
