- The hot hatch segment just got better.... Introducing the AMG A35.
Not a full fat AMG but a compelling way to get into the AMG brand!
Massive shoutout to Cy Rose from Mercedes-Benz Stourbridge who sourced me his demo car to vlog on.
If you are in the market for a Mercedes then do give Cy Rose a call.

I have this on order in this exact spec and colour. Didn't get this with aero pack as wanted to be a sensible mum lol. Personally think this colour is gorgeous, especially in the sunshine. Great review.
Thanks Susan....its a very capable car that not only looks good but is also functional as a daily....enjoy your new car x.
How you finding it Susan? Enjoying it? Whats it like on fuel? Fairly decent MPG?
The ‘cold start’ you did is wrong, there is an emottion start you do this buy starting the car with one of the shifters held.
Great video...waiting for the next one!
Thanks Sonny. M4 Up next!
Love the tech in these but still prefer the 6-cylinder M140i when it comes hot-hatches. This sounds like an expensive hoover.
Hah.... Like all 4pots! But yea the kit list was very good and makes M140i look bare inside
Bye bye 6 pot all cars will be single cylinder lol
Sweet video as usual. On point. Love the seats. Hope they can be retrofitted to the A45 lol
Thanks mate, A45 seats are good but a bit firm....
Yes Mo great vid mate!!
Thanks Cy.... Cracking car!
Nice vid again Mo, but I still don't like the Merc. They have a great dash and the back end looks better, that colour does not look the best for the car also. Mr Hamilton has just had a bright yellow one & that looks ok but it is fully spec'ed up.
I agree the colour is not the best.... Yellow is the popular choice. However this is a demonstration vehicle and not a full specced out aero package like the AMG A45 I was in few weeks ago. It goes aswell as a 2.0ltr 300hp car can. EU emissions regulations are diluting the car sounds though....
Interesting to see Contact 6 tyres as they are the OEM FK2/8 tyre also.
These are 18s though....
Great review man! Really well filmed and edited.
Do you think this offers better value for money than the A250 AMG?
Thanks mate.....this is a real hot hatch directly competing with the likes of Golf R and Audi S3. A250 AMG was not really a full on hot hatch. However this is quite an expensive car to be fair.....
Nice! Mines coming in 2 weeks! Also denim blue non aero pack lol
P.s. This one is Premium Plus not Premium
Yes most likely it is....had a lot of kit.
Congratulations on your purchase...you'll love it!
So happy I saw this vid, it nearly my spec!! Haha apart from I’ve got only Premium pack 🙈 But sound isn’t great but I may tweak the exhaust by removing the res and modify the backboxes!! Hopefully that opens it up 👀
How is fuel consumption
Never really looked but most likely 25mpg
@@DownShiftThrottle hm how often do you have to fill it up every week, thanks
literally just bought an identical spec A35 only difference is full leather interior
Comes on sale in Australia this October, and I’m putting an order for brand new . Though am not sure if I should get the aero pack in denim blue or Mountain grey colour skeem.
Most of the options will come as standard in Australian specs
The Aero pack looks great and sets the car off. Even this denim blue would look great with the Aero kit. All the best with your purchase.
The black panel dials on the M140i looks far better than all of these cars with PS4's for dashboards. In my humble opinion. Infact, the whole interior is just better. In my humble opinion. I'm not saying that just because I own a 140i. Actually, it might be......
Each to their own I guess. I do think the A35 interior looks better....
@@DownShiftThrottle this is true. You're a finance guy, yeah? Whaddya make of the reg V100 KUP? Worth buying?
Lol mate yes I'm a finance guy but I have no idea how much valuation is in a number plate. I know some plates fetch a lot of money but I wouldn't know what this would be worth...
Jukebox on wheels?
Looks good but I’d wait for the 45 .your at the traffic lights and a smug 45 owner pulls up at the lights and you have that sinking feeling! even though you’ve splashed out of £40+ grand. If you can afford the payments on a 35 im sure you could stretch to the 45!!! Ps I’m not a sales man😀😀
Lol love that scenario that you just mentioned!!!
I'm getting the amg line in 2 or 3 weeks 2019
Enjoy mate!
Proper thinking about getting this car 🤔
Do it... Honestly no BS!
How do you find it compared to the civic type r? Aside from the interior being ahead of the civic, drive and power wise would you rate them similar? Would it be eno8gh to make you move from the civic to the a35 or do you think you'd sit tight and go for the a45 when it comes along?
You know what it actually reminded me of the type r with 4wd and auto gearbox. It definitely feels quicker than the FK2/FK8.
RaceBase Dont buy either get an M2 Competition - I sold my A45 for one and I haven’t looked back!
As a x2 ctr owner let me chime in. They do feel very sim. The DCT feels like it “pulls” more when slowing or reg driving. But they A35 is def quicker, but I feel the CTR would pull away slowly in the top end. I now own a 21 A35. The CTR active suspension feels a little stiffer than my 35 with the base suspension. Interior goes to the A35 hands down, but the CTR seats, when your sitting in them, feel more comfy, but harder to get into and you have to watch your balls if you are wearing baggy shorts or jogging pants. You will crunch them as I did a few times, not fun lol.
So how does the cold start differ to a normal start up?
Its louder....hopefully you can hear the difference in the start up of the exhaust sound.....
is the executive one any good?
Executive one?
@@DownShiftThrottle yeah the base 35 with no packs?
@@hahabobblehead2059 it would drive the same.....the Packs make it a nicer experience overall.
It is a nice car although you pay for the tech because I think it is well overpriced over here. Besides I would never ever make it this understating with that look. The blue is to dull, the rims are easy to overlook and no spoiler of extra exteriour amg stuff what so ever. I would rather go for a more agressive look like most of the yellow ones out there. But then again its just taste and someone else finds my idea horrific.
Yes this does look quite understated. Thing to remember here is that this is a dealership demonstration vehicle and these are usually specced to a price.... In this case sub £40k for lower tax band. This has got the premium plus pack on which is going to be a common option. Aero kit adds a nice styling upgrade but would then take the price over the £40k unfortunately
Oh sheep!
Hey man, you’ve made a few mistakes...
- The exhaust tips on this are fake.
- the front end is different to the standard a class
- you don’t need to do a “Cold start procedure”, it’s literally to make the car louder on start up
- the seats aren’t real leather in this car, it’s fake leather, you need the leather package to get the real leather seats
- the tyres are because of the wheel set up. The style pack adds 19 inch wheels and Pirelli PZero tyres
- the 0-60 is 4.7
Just worth pointing out man!
Thanks....
Exhaust tips are open
Cold start/loud start I think we get the jist
Leather seats.... They're all fake artico leather...
0-60 irrelevant because it felt quicker anyway.
But no thanks for commenting.... Appreciate it mate
DownShift Throttle I took delivery of mine a few weeks ago.
The exhausts are just tips and aren’t connected to the actual pipes.
The alcantara seats have the fake the leather, the other seats are real leather. You can reference this on the MB configurator.
Your video is ace by the way, it really well shot and actually has production value! Just thought it worth mentioning some of the errors :p
Don't like the sound, hate the colour mate, does nothing for the car. What about trying to blag urself a review of a BMW i8 Mo?
Sound wise.... I think it's as good as it gets for a 4 pot. It doesn't sound like a V5 the way a Golf R sounds synthesised. Colour is a bit bland but I guess it was what was available. A black, yellow or green would look awesome
Bmw don't want to lend me a car.... I'm not gonna blag it to be honest. I've reached out to them on a number of occasions for regular cars but they don't understand. Ah well.....
@@DownShiftThrottle True mate, the colour makes the car.
Love that dash man, makes our's look 80's !
@@DownShiftThrottle Their loss mate, ur reviews are getting slicker all the time.
Nothing compared to the M140i.
Lol true!!!!
Well obvs, the competition is meant to be the S3 and M135....dumb comparison
15october91 Quicker to 100mph than the M140i 😂 What you on mate
It certainly didn't feel quicker than the M140i on the drive.
Not for me...
