Ignition TV laptimes .. All hail the M135i

[Chavoos]

I was just watching ignition tv and they had an interesting feature of the new Mercedes CLA 45 AMG , they had a raving review and all good stuff to say about this beast. Interestingly at the end of the feature they showed how it fairs in terms of zwartkops lap time against its rivals.

Wasn't the Merc and the Audi AWD like the Subaru as well?

Gugu Zulu complained that the car understeered.

Does anyone know which S3 time is reflected here? I presume it's the previous generation.

"Audi,they dont come with indicators as they dont believe in taking turns. Mercedes.. theyve always had problems putting down power.. As for the engineers at BMW M, they find it difficult to better the work of BMW .
BMW's have always been perfectly balanced and they are the embodiment of racing and road for more than 4 decades. Speed is nothing when you lack handling" -Jeremy Clarkson

I watched this and recorded the previous weeks episode of the M135i, it was a manual. Surely the 8spd auto would be in the 1:14:xx:thumbs:

Have to agree with you on this as their has been much hype about the CLA.

Would be interesting comparing the weight between the CLA and M135i. Cause the CLA ain't a small car.
