PH reckons it's standard spec! They can't put silly little brakes on an AMG model!  :confused:

The new A class has a nice driving position and is a well thought out car. I really like the look of this.

Especially with the aero pack

Where did you look at one? I think Merc are the only people that know, so unless anyone works for them, we're in the dark.

As Chungy says. The pics on PHs represents UK standard spec @ £36k.
Sideways yo!

All reports say that the A class drives like sh*t. Maybe the AMG will differ, but is still take an M135i.

It is a beautiful looking thing though.

If priced 'in the region' this will surely give new S3 and Mk 7 Golf R (if they do that in RHD) a bit of sales competition won't it.
Being 2.0L turbo, 4WD Haldex and dual clutch box.

Even though I'm VW to the core could be tempted by one these Mercs though.
Cannot personally see me driving a BM no matter how great it was. Just my view. A three pointed star on the other hand..

Then you would be missing out. 10% discount on an M135i means £27k. Better GFV and competitive finance (if you can't afford outright purchase) means they are an immense bargain at the moment. You can spec a Mk7 GT to nearly £30k with just a few modest options. Doubt there will be much discount to be had from Mercedes.
