Great feedback there.

Autocar's Sutcliffe review and your comments show just how much the A45 AMG is NOT a competitor for the M135i and is more competition for the 1M and M2. Both with pricing and driving. Mercedes said themselves during the development that the 1M was the target vehicle for how their car feels and performs and as the 1M was just a little too stiff on the road, so is the A45 by the looks of it.

BMW have pitched the M135i in just the right place, the right amount of oomph for the right amount of Wonga with the right amount of compromises.

Budget notwithstanding I am still happy with the choice of M135i as it fulfils everything I need it to.

Although the journo reviews of the A45 AMG are beginning to surprise me !
