Best car for me and my grandchildren
The GLA is my favourite in the Mercedes-Benz baby-car line-up and it gets The Tick. But you should also test drive the new Infiniti Q30 and QX30, which share the mechanical package of the A-Class family but with a little more comfort.

Family SUV for $50k?
For me, your best choice would be a Mercedes-Benz GLA (above left). It is the SUV of the baby Benz range, with good space and comfort, the space, safety and seats you need with a hatch to get access to the boot. It definitely gets The Tick from me.
