That’s right, the local Mercedes dealer had a CLA250 roped off.

Is that a patent motorwagen in the corner? For sale? :P

I suppose if I had bought a car, I wouldn’t mind them parking it inside and also preventing people from climbing in and out of it and putting their mitts on it before I pick it up . So, I kinda understand.

Even though it just sold, this dealer should be embarrassed for roping off the shittiest Merc sold in the U.S. since my '01 C240.

Being a sold car, makes sense.

Their entire CLA250 inventory isn’t worth what one of the classics is. Either of them.

As the former owner of the same vintage C320 I think Mercedes should be ashamed in general.

It's actually to prevent people from getting too close and seeing what a POS it is.

Probably because it was sold. Bring the customer through, show them how important they are by roping off the car so no kids climb in and get snot on the interior. Looks like a good dealership to me. Sometimes it’s the little things that keep people coming back. Maybe when they are ready for a newer model something as mundane as roping it off on the day it was bought will sway them to buy another from that dealership.
And to some people, a CLA250 is an aspirational car. Maybe the most expensive they will ever buy. Not everyone thinks two identical BMWs is a smart life choice. But then, there are some people who think it is.
My grandmother bought a brand new Mustang in 1984 . It was blue and an automatic and probably the lowest spec model. She took it to the local mechanic once a month to be serviced. When it was two years old she had it repainted by the dealership. She had always wanted a Mustang and thought that the base model was just perfect for a little old lady such as herself. Had the dealership had it roped off when she went to pick it up I bet she would have felt like a queen for an hour or so. See how that works?

I mean it makes sense if it was so the customer could pick the cheapest Mercedes up off the floor with the same feeling as if they had bought a Maybach. I didn’t inquire, but it could be the first new car this person has bought.
Regardless of the reason, I still found it somewhat comical the cheapest Mercedes sold in the US was roped off. Probably because last time, this was there instead:
On the CLA, I wouldn’t buy one because I don’t fit in the back and I’m not tall. I am getting excited about the A-Class coming to the US. I had a 2013 B-Class in Germany in 2013 and loved it.

I test drove a CLA45 AMG, the trim piece on the seat adjustment broke off.

Not sure, maybe to make the people who bought it feel special.

I think we should all just rope our cars off whenever in public. New Oppo rule.

Hey, I'm gonna defend E90M3 here: I don't recall him EVER saying anything he ever did was smart

And from discovering how hellaciously cramped it is, especially getting in and out.
