MB introduced the A35 to attract folk away from the Golf R , Audi S3 etc and it’s worked

Problem is it’s basically “Chav Central” in that market segment with everyone after A45s performance for a couple of hundred quid extra, preferably with a “pops, bangs n crackle” remap to make them sound like a total T@&T
Ayup. I appreciate most MB products, I’m not always appreciative of what folk choose to do with it

end of the day it’s their choice but don’t ask what folk think and get upset when they tell you.
Eyup. I think I’ve drawn my own conclusions
