Merc A45 AMG

What you guys think of this? The figures look impressive.

Direct completion to the RS3 and M135i I presume.

Due to change my car (TT 2l TFSI) and RS3 is one on my radar, along with TTRS, or possibly the new s3

I like it and may consider changing from the RS3 later in the year although I've also ordered an TT-RS plus so would seem logical not to have 2 Cars with the same running gear

Yeh that's very true, wouldn't want the same engine to be fair, I think for me the AMG would be out my price range as adding options etc would prob see it take it to 40k+

i do like them however, test drove the engineered by AMG A class last week, was more style than substance and at 31k with a few options was eye watering, as it's only 211bhp from the 2l engine.

Probably have to wait until April to know full cost and spec think they will have to be quite competitive as they are aiming at the BMW M135i & as Audi no longer make the RS3 it is more likely to be put up against the S3.
