  • Rory 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.

    I love a carwow drag race but a track is what these cars were made for. A much better way of doing a comparison test, especially for British roads.

    But is it more fun because its that much faster?.Will you be needing the extra go on public road?.
    Is it more fun in a rear wheel drive car with a v6.?
    Ultimate speed on the commute to work or more smiles per mile in say Fiesta st?.🤔

    If I had enough to buy the A35, I would deadass slog hard and get the A45. Unhesitatingly.
    Cause I know I won't be throwing it around corners every day, but at least I'll get to enjoy that faster 0-60 every day.
