The new Mercedes-Benz GLK was revealed at the recent Detroit motor show. It's a smaller SUV intended to pose a threat to the BMW X3 and the upcoming Audi Q5.
However, Mercedes are not releasing the GLK in the UK so the leasing options are nil. Why? Because these masters of auto engineering say it's too difficult to adapt the 4WD set-up for right-hand drive!?
Gutted? No. It looks like a poor relation of the Kia Sportage (which would be almost acceptable if it was similarly priced). It seems we've got off lightly from this blip in Mercedes design history - there are plenty of good Mercedes leasing options out there, so lets consider ourselves lucky to have escaped seeing this on UK roads.
