How would the VW Jetta compare with the BMW 320I/318i & Merc C180?

My buddies advice that I keep away from CMC.What is the wazuan take on this vehicle?

Personally, enjoyed driving the Jetta (and this one was diesel)...but what are you looking to compare? Fuel efficiency?

1. Fuel efficiency
2. Maintenance (This is the bit my buddies advice I keep off CMC, claim parts prices are over the roof)

Car will be town driven 98% of the time.

@ nonstoppingthis, Generally any advice about this Vehicle (Jetta)

Parts should never worry you if you get hold of @JKMwatha.He once sourced for my friend some spares for his Mercedes from the UK at manageable prices.

@Mawinder - Thanks.

@ryz - Not sure you can compare Jetta to any of the others - C-class, 3-series or even A4.
They're .. a different level of luxury.

With regards to fuel efficiency, maintenance as well as initial price, Jetta is likely to cost you less and likewise... less 'clout'.
It may not hold its value (resale) well in Kenya.

But if you're looking for individual opinions, out of all those... nothing but the merc.
