Mercedes-Benz B-Class a good buy?

I'm looking into leasing a Mercedes-Benz B-Class.

I have had the use of the A180 for a while and liked the car, but I need more room than the A-Class to give me a people carrier with good luggage space. The only thing that bothers me are reports of a noisy interior, or road noise on this model, which I must say really surprises me for any Mercedes car?
