Mercedes CLA45 AMG - 6 Month Ownership Summary

[@matthewmajestic1013]

The CLA45 AMG is such unique car!, the engine, the transmission, styling etc., and for the money I feel it’s worth it!, to keep your CLA45 AMG🙏🏾😁, great overview of your car!

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

AMG_CivicKindaguy 101 yeah it’s absolutely great! the looks, the feels and the performance all in one is great for value! Thanks for the feedback! be sure to check our other videos out too 👍🏽

[@NightVisionFiles]

your missing out on a panoramic sunroof on CLA45 makes the car look better and more slick when the sunroof is slided back

[@broj3706]

I've just found your channel lads. Some great content and it's nice to see two normal guys talking about their cars. keep up the good work.

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

B Roj thanks bro! Really means a lot!

[@12tribes61]

Good to hear honest positive review! Most reviews compare this to a V8 which is not a fair comparison.

[@asifraja6443]

DONT CHANGE THE CLA 45 Amg it is a good looking car and sporty car Just buy any Mercedes not any Audi

[@sal6419]

Audi > Mercedes

[@jaw_jackk32]

That yeezy flex at the start 👀

[@blazingglory157]

Love the video only thing that I would say with the sport mode I’m pretty sure most cars that have sport mode keep rpm’s high so I can just step on it again with having any lag once up in the rpm’s.

[@harrylloyd6955]

Got 3day poisoning in sherm el sheikh 🤣 good video, affordable merc

[@alanbower9296]

Two great guys honest and very clear enjoyed your video what a moter you have its class looking enjoy

[@aleksandrakowierec4501]

And this shitttttttt RADIO thingy from '70.... why mercedes please tell us why

[@eh7145]

Such an honest review!!!! Love it :)

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Edward Harrison thank you mate 👍🏽🙌🏽

[@tommendoza1812]

Some good videos! Nice to get reviews from a couple of normal lads unlike some of the channels on here where the guys have 10 cars that mummy and daddy bought them Picked up a new C200 Amg Line with all the extras I could put in it, watching and hearing the exhaust noises from these 2 cars makes me wish I went for the C43! Next time lol

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Tom Mendoza haha couldn’t agree more mate! you appreciate it more when you’ve earned it! A C200 is still a lovely car! That was something we did think about buying before the AMG as fully specced they are so nice! but yes the AMGs do sound the part! If you ever consider looking into an AMG I would fully recommend Mercedes retail group, top top people who know what they are talking about 👌🏽 (we are not advertising them at all! We just think the service we have got from them is outstanding! )

[@tommendoza1812]

Lets Torque About It I did have a 2016 CLA but it was entry level very boring so traded in for the new C Class. The next one will def be a AMG without a doubt! Just been on the site, save so much by buying with a few thousand on the clock by the looks of it

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Tom Mendoza yeah I’d say get a pre owned one as the previous owner had taken a lot of the depreciation so you won’t be affected as much. Also the run in would have been done and I’m sure it’ll still have manufacture warranty if it’s a year or two old.

[@OZH204]

Get the latest TCU update done through benz. Fixes the gearbox.

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

OZH204 ohreally? Thanks man!!! Will look into that!

[@TheGU1T4RFR3AK]

shall i go for A45 or CLA45. i like the look of both. all opinions and advice welcome! ty

[@steve37ist]

Every car ive had has had the same problem sports mode of no good for town driving or short bursts or going down hills they just hold onto the gears to long and dont let them change hence the high revs and engine screams

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

stephen moore yeah totally agree, I just stick it into manual when that happens now

[@andyp8464]

the old watching videos of your car type while away lol , I've done plenty of that hehe. yeah sport mode on that model is the most aggressive mode , keeping you in the highest power band possible, hope you get pops and crackles from dabbing the throttle. certainly on the gla , that was a hobby of mine and so easy to do on the 45s. it's much harder to do on the 63s and the sound insulation is a bit too much on the 63s , you can't hear the exhaust as much unless you keep the moonroof open . I find for the wheels a bit of pressure washer , then autoglym shampoo with a sponge and then pressure wash gets the rims as good as new....or not.. because of all the kerb scrapes lol it's a great car , fast and fun and sounds great

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Andy P we’ve all ended up doing that haha! Yeah that’s fair, but sometimes it’s just nice to put your foot down and then chill out but I think going forward I’ll do that in manual to keep the revs low when I want them and keep the gears changes to what I want. Thanks for the advise for the alloys, will give that a try!!

[@Hazulkar]

Isn't the Race mode the most aggressive mode?

[@armagancelik7588]

i love this car❤

[@CharlieMayhew-jq7iv]

Hi mate, looking at buying one of these what’s the fuel economy like? Like if you were to drive in comfort most of the time only on weekends would a full tank last or will it just drain? Thank u

[@jakeagusta]

Fuel economy is pretty good

[@naeemaalkiyumi1568]

Guys great video but i wanna ask how are the sits for long drive? I heard they are not comfortable like how is it for 2 hours trip driving?

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

naeema alkiyumi it’s not bad on a long journey, we took both cars on a 9 hour drive to Germany. I can’t say I was uncomfortable from the seats.

[@coolreflections9448]

*Great video mate, I need your advice.* *My friend is selling 2015 CLA45 AMG with 35000 KM on it. For 29000 USD* *And also I have an option to buy 2014 E400 4Matic for the same price.* *And 2012 Maserati Quattroporte or 2014 CLS400 for 45000$.* I am 189 CM tall, which one you recommend me to buy???

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Gmail Account nice selection of cars there, if you want performance I would say the CLA45 as it would rinse those cars. Bains is 6ft5 and he fits fine in his A45. However if it’s a concern about room I’d go for the E400, not badly priced, powerful and rare. Hope this helps

[@yuyaozhuo7614]

Definitely cla! 29000 is a fare price. The market price for A certified per owned 2015 CLA45 is around 35000USD. I guess your friend’s CLA is not certified. So take it to a mechanic, if everything is ok, buy it.

[@DieCrew]

I love this car :D

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Die Crew it’s sooooo good!!

[@waste77]

@letstorqueaboutitHi, are you on a PCP plan for the CLA45 AMG and if you don't mind, how much do you pay per month/term etcas Im also looking to get one

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

waste77 hi mate, yeah on a pcp plan, paying around £400 a month with a £5k deposit. We have done a video in regards to buying advice for a 45 amg, take a look it might help out...hopefully 👌🏽

[@waste77]

thanks mate- ive been offered a march 2018 black CLA 45 for £425pm with 3 year term at 6.3 APR but with 7k deposit. I am contemplating but not too sure

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

waste77 that doesn’t sound to bad!! is that main dealer? also is the CLA fully specced up? In my honest opinion if you are to finance a car make sure it’s proper specced up! Otherwise you’ll be thinking what if 😂

[@waste77]

haha yeah mate, its got all the spec i'd want and in black too so very nice. Yes its from a dealer- temple fortune Mercedes. thanks mate appreciate response. down to earth guys making good vids

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

waste77 sounds nice mate! Enjoy it! They are so much fun! Thanks for the feedback mate really appreciate it 😁

[@joeparker4355]

Have you noticed the delay when you set off from a standstill? U press the throttle and there is a slight delay before the car actually moves.. It's like the clutch doesn't engage quick enough..

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

joe parker I have noticed something like that a few times, I feel as though it’s not in gear. Not to sure what it could be.

[@joeparker4355]

Lets Torque About It unfortunately its an a45/cla45 perk.. hands down the worst thing about the car in my opinion. I know it's not a standard auto box coz it's a dual clutch but the auto boxes in other mercs are so much better.. as soon as u touch the accelerator your away. Shame they couldnt do this with the dual clutch.. Would be Interested to see if other dual clutches suffer with the same issue. Anyways good videos lads.. keep it up

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

joe parker that is interesting mate, I’ll go for a drive in abit and see if I can proper notice it. But thanks for the feedback mate means a lot!

[@joeparker4355]

Lets Torque About It If you lads can get your hands on a golf r or s3 ect with the dsg/s tronic you could see if it's a dual clutch trait in general or just a mercedes dual clutch issue ect. Would be interesting to see one of them vs your cars on your channel if possible..

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

joe parker will have to ask about, might be able to get ahold of a golf r. Would be a sick comparison video! Stay tuned hopefully can sort something out buddy

[@josephjohnson7860]

What year of car is this?

[@livmm947]

What about the bumps? Do you have to drive over bumps at like 8mph 🤔

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Liv M M cars are actually good with bumps, the A45 has selective dampers so you can go in sports mode but have the car in comfort so you don’t break your back 😂

[@livmm947]

Well... I’ve brought the wrong CLA then 🤦🏼‍♀️ 😩

[@RCConceptsx]

Liv M M I have a 2019 CLA45 and hit speed bumps at 13 to 16mph with ease.

[@raleighautodetailing6603]

what year is it

[@Mo0shii]

like mine 200 cla spec better, but i do like your engine better!

[@pazsfrontseat5949]

Mate, I got a cla45, points you're making are so tiny you could have worst problems, my next door neighbours car everytime they turn it on I'm worried it's gonna explode! You're just bored of the car that's all it is lol also I got the new version, the gear box etc is all sorted out so you won't have any issues with it

[@Chriskreepa]

Is there much turbo lag?

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Christian Wheeler nah not much mate, we don’t notice it much

[@Chriskreepa]

Lets Torque About It cheers for the reply. That’s interesting seeing it’s got so much power from just a 2.0. My Subaru has put me off turbos because of the lag, I may to test drive these amg’s as it’s them or the RS5 Audi N/A

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Christian Wheeler yeah a lot of power from a mid range engine, they have been tuned well. The best thing is you can still do mods to them to make them more of a monster. I would highly recommend going Mercedes Benz world, and drive the A45 on track, that way you can properly test it out and they really do let you push the cars

[@omarazmy4118]

Mate I'm from Egypt and I feel absoulotly dis respected about what u said about my country

[@LetsTorqueAboutIt]

Omar Azmy Apologies Omar! The country itself is stunning, Just unfortunately I had a bad experience ☹️ Did not mean to offend, thanks for the subscribe!

[@omarazmy4118]

Lets Torque About It thank u for apolagizing I love ur videos u make such great content and I hope ur fine from whatever happened some ppl there can be very heartless

[@kevinhamukwaja6050]

why do you talk so much
