    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    Glad you got sorted. Sounds like a decent deal with such a low deposit. Ours came with that wireless charging pack. Think it adds Apple car play/android. You still need to plug that in rather than using wireless charging pad to get it to work. Although annoyingly the interface for the Apple car...

    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    Also had a quick look on https://www.whatcar.com/car-leasing/ where I have previously found decent deals. A Merc dealer is doing them 6 months down at £363 on 4 year deal with 10k a year. £406 for premium plus.

    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    Just had a quick scroll through twitter and an A35 deal popped up at £324 a month incl vat. Makes no mention of deposit or miles. Suspect it will be 9 months upfront. Company was lease4wheels.co.uk Deal isn’t list their website yet but maybe worth a call. If this company has them on offer I’m...

    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    Well the guy came on here asking for some help finding a lease deal and he gets responses from a load of Martin Lewis wannabes. Buy/lease/pcp/loan.... do you want you want. I’m sure he is a big enough boy to decide the best way to get his hands on an A35 without a load of keyboard warriors...

    Any good A35 lease deals about?

    Sign up to a few leasing sites. You generally find if one is doing them on offer they all are. Once you know they are on offer shop around and play one off the other. Did this with my Golf R and the Mrs’s current A35. We ended up with an A35 premium with metallic paint and some sort of phone...

    A35 traction problems

    It came with conti’s mate. Not my usual tyre choice to be honest. Always go with pilot sports. The first time it spun up yesterday it was damp, I had about 70% lock on the steering and the tyres were cold. The second time the road was damp, the tyres were warm and the wheels were pointing...

    A35 traction problems

    Just been having a think. I have not used the launch control, never planned to. I’ve done it my a few times for a laugh in mine but only a couple of times. Again traction isn’t a problem. for those that have launched their a35s how do they behave? I’m going to drive it this week and have a play...

    A35 traction problems

    Thanks for the reply’s guys. You have confirmed I think there is an issue. The funny thing is my mrs has said a few time she thinks there is an issue but I have just assumed it was poor driving on her part . I’m not completely flooring it no. Just a little throttle input and it’s is genuinely...

    A35 traction problems

    Hi, Our A35 has got a couple of thousand miles on it but mainly driven by the mrs. I took it out today. The conditions were quite damp. I am slightly concerned as when I pulled out of junctions or put my foot down in lower gears it behaves very much like a front wheel drive car. From standing...

    For anyone who is considering ordering. Take a look at the Configurator on the merc website.... premium now gets 19” wheels and night pack included (pack is £2500). Premium plus now has the aero pack. (£6000)! Can’t remember the price of the packages before and how they compare but To say I’m...

    Yes brakes were noisy when we were bedding them in. Almost booked the car in but it seems to have stopped now they have a few miles on them. As for the ‘proper AMG’ argument. Not really fussed. Although it pops and bangs in sport+ so it qualifies in my opinion ha ha

    Yeah the paint does appear a little soft. Our black one has a number of stone chips on the bonnet. The only thing I’m keeping an eye is on a cold start is seems very jumpy on the throttle response. But it quickly goes away. May mention it to merc if it needs to go in for anything else.

    Thinking about it mate. May do it after its 12 months to make sure there are no issues. It’s only just hit 1500 miles. I’ve seen the DTUK quoted figures and it has certainly got me interested The Mrs drives it most of the time... wonder if she would notice

    AMG A35 Owners Thread

    You’re right mate... plus we needed a car ASAP so had a stock car so the spec was dictated to us based on monthlies . We could have lost premium and a couple other bits and got an aero but I couldn’t live with the small screens as they look rubbish. I think the standard A35 looks mean from the...

    Correct about the suspension. It’s is firmer than our R but I don’t find it too firm. Much less roll in the body than the R. As for the aero pack, I do like the look of the A35 with it on but think it’s a little over the top on a car like the A35. I like the understated looks and given they are...

    AMG A35 Owners Thread

    Hi, We have had our A35 for a couple of months now and we love it. Our other car is a 2018 Golf R (with tuning box installed). If I have the choice I always take A35 out. Interior is fantastic place to be compared to golf. It’s slightly worse then R on fuel but not by much, may improve now it’s...

    cheers for the information. I have arranged for a call back tomorrow so I can sort the service pack out. At £29 it seems silly not to do it

    Ahhhh yes you would think so wouldn’t you... but it turns out to be quite expensive! She also point blank refuses to drive my R because it is an estate :D

    Hi guys, just thought I would introduce myself. I joined the forum a good few years ago but my merc ownership didn’t last long on that occasion. I have an A35 premium in black being delivered on Thursday. It’s actually going to be for the Mrs although I hope to have use it every now and again...

    Low biting point c180k clutch

    Thanks. I think I will get it in with my mechanic mate to have a look at it when I get chance, it had an advisory for wheel bearing having too much play as well so that needs sorting to!
