Mercedes A35 vs A45S: Is the A45S REALLY worth £15,000 more!? | 4K
Рет қаралды 622,059
4 жыл бұрынRory reviews the Mercedes-Benz AMG A35 vs the more expensive A45S on track to see which is best. The A45 is priced far higher - fifteen thousand pounds more to be exact - but does its faster 0-60, better sound, higher top speed and DRIFT MODE make it a better investment?

I am just lovin’ Rory’s reviews. I’m in the market for a new sports car but wanted to know what these new cars were all about. Rory has enlightened me on so many differences that other reviewers never point out. Every car he drives I want to buy! Gosh, what a salesman he would make. He energetically points out all the positive features but he does mention the minuses as well. I never thought I would enjoy learning about car engines and how nuanced wheel balance and power distribution can be. Thanks Rory! I’m so grateful to you for sharing you knowledge so enthusiastically.

OK this was 3 years ago but I’ve only just seen this great video.The conclusion was inevitable, £15,000 is going to get you a faster car.I do not regret choosing the A35 as it will still keep up with a Boxter and I got 47 mpg driving steadily on the motorway.For more power I have an AMG C63 in the garage but at the moment jumping in the A35 is probably more fun.Less anxiety squeezing down narrow lanes and less anxiety looking for petrol stations and less anxiety when you go into a corner a bit too fast on a damp road.
