That's kind of the issue in general with the Dutch car market. In most cases the cars have the weakest possible engine config.
I'm surprised this wasn't a 160 but actually the 180 automatic.
Audi A3's but all the 1.0 TFSI variants. Hyundai i30s with the 1.0 T-GDI engine.
Watched some car reviews, the sentiment is overall the same. Great looks, good driving, quality interior, fantastic seats, AMG options like the sports suspension and 18" rims which this model has, lots of features, some caveats like the trunk that I don't really care about. Much better fuel economy than the Lancer. Most people that own it, love it even more so with the AMG extras. BMW Series 1 better in some ways worse in others but ~5k more expensive, higher road taxes too.
In general I'm having a first world problem. Never thought when I bought the Lancer that I would 1 day consider switching to a Mercedes with AMG styling. Sure there's a Hyundai i30 n2 for sale for 28k with 275hp but that's the bracket for the next round.
