Hi All,ive now done 1600 miles in my A35 and it's changing notes in the exhaust and it's now getting louder with the pops and crackles which i loved like my 2016 A45 but im really happy with the car in general,im finding it quite responsive on the kick downs but its hard to compare between the A35 and my old A45 but as previous comments finding it so much more smoother to drive,obviously ive not done as many miles as I usually do since the lockdown but it's the longest time it's been clean for ha ha,im going to do my 1st exterior mod to my A35,I'm changing the 2 single exhaust tips for the quad style like on the A45,since I've seen other A35's changed with this style,I much prefer this look then what it is now(looks strange with the covers surrounding each tip personally to me)...it could be where I had my old A45 and got used to the exhaust tips in this(quad style)...I'm thinking of changing the chrome lettering to black and maybe the front grill to a different style,but still undecided at the moment....I never did anything to my A45 and kept it standard throughout but previous hot hatches I've had I did interior and exterior mods to them so trying to make this one abit more personal I think,thanks.

It's good to hear the exhaust note is getting louder with crackle and pops.

Are you considering a stage 1 to take the performance closer to the previous A45. Certainly the Brabus options for the A35 look good. But guess a garage would probably not be allowed to fit it at present even if the parts were readily available at the moment.

Mercedes of Poole are an approved Brabus dealer and if the parts are fitted by a Mercedes dealer then your full Mercedes warranty remains in place. I have to say that I'm tempted. I got my A35 from Mercedes of Salisbury, they are part of the same garage group.

Hi Forrester,yeah I've seen loads of body parts about for sale,and Kunzmann have alot too...I might look into upgrading bhp output but ironic as it is power wasnt my factor in why I got the A35 instead of the A45s as extending my family came first ha ha,I love the drive to work in the early mornings with a great back road run and tight corners(I've been pulled over afew times and have been told they can tell I use the road alot as i go in and out of the corners as if they went there ha ha),drive home is always abit slower due to traffic.Hows the drive in your car going? If anyone has any good modifications ideas let me know ?
