Having owned 4 A's, I didn't think I'd ever say it, but I prefer our B+. The A's always seemed to have something to worry about. They were a conglomoration of miscellaneous parts that never seemed to hold together as expected. Too much "after market" stuff in the cab area. Reliability was never the long suite. And when there was a problem, you were lucky to find readily available mechanical help.
Now I drive a Chevy-based B+ and take much pleasure in its total reliability and solidity. Almost any Chevy dealer welcomes us as clients. The A/C is Chevy, as is the whole front end, windshield, windows, lights, electrical system, mirrors ... and there's much more ease of driving, improved economy, all with more than enough space and comfort. Wish we'd gone with a B+ years ago! ...and now my wife shares in the driving.
