it's amazing..but I hope there is a way to deactivate all the icons on the navigation map...it takes your attention and can't see anything really of the way you go on the GPS
Yes there is. It is actually like that because of the parking icons, as soon as you remove them it’s much better and more clear. Also when navigation is turned on it is more zoomed in so less icons appear :)
The new A3 vs the new BMW 1 series. What would be your pick? I have the A3 2019 model. I will chose between these two cars in 1.5 years when my current leasingplan is finished.
hmm, a tough one I must say, as those 2 cars would also make it to my top 2 choices in this class. And it's hard to tell which one is better as it comes to personal taste. In Croatia you can get a better deal in terms of finance with BMW so that would be my choice probably. But if they were on the same level in terms of financing would be a hard choice. Audi has better interior and more fancy look of ambient lights and digital cockpit is much better here. But BMW has better build quality inside (but not as flashy, you can almost say it's rather standard interior when compared to this or A-Class). Exterior design - both are great, especially in S Line / M Sport trim, I am leaning toward the BMW in terms of design though. Drivin aspect - I would say BMW is a little bit better for sporty driving, but on everyday usage there's no difference as both are great driver focused cars. So you can't go wrong really :) Which spec/engine did you have in mind? I did a review of both cars with all the details (you can watch in on the channel, for example here is the driving POV of the BMW: ua-cam.com/video/S5IOUMw4LGo/v-deo.html) There are also many videos on both the new A3 and new 1 Series (POV night drive, ambient lights details etc so just search it on my channel and you'll find it. Cheers mate
@@lucyreeves3754 what didn't you like about the A-Class? Or was it already time for a new car? :) This in my opinion is better to drive and more enjoyable, but A-Class has more advanced infotainemnt and ambient lights etc
@@crospotter13 I had AMG 250 Aclass premium line in black, love the car but the car itself was very low to the ground, going over car parking bumps used to have the bottom of the car scraping at times and made me cringed so fancied a change.
Yeah the steering wheel really doesn't match the interior. It's a great looking steering wheel, but not for this generation A3. The previous generation had a lot of round shapes in the interior. This new generation has a lot of sharp curves, so it really doesn't work.
@@ahz_7851 thanks :) if you search POV night drive Crospotter13 you will find many videos including the night drives that look very nice in the city. For example "Mercedes C-Class 2023 night POV test drive Crospotter13" is the drive with my personal car I think you will love that one
Did you get the car? How do you like it? I ordered my A3 Limousine 35 TFSI with Business Evolution packets back in December and the contract said "delivery on 22 March" but they just warned a couple weeks ago the production is slowed down due to covid so it could take some more until late spring...
depends on what you want in car and what are you used to in cars. For me I would choose more powerful engine to be honest, but for an average buyer this is more than enough

Salut Crospotter13, Hell of a video on this beauty you have there! Helped a lot on choosing this model. Still have one criteria to settle with though... If you had to pick the colour again, would you stay with this turbo blue or would you go with the mythos black with all black logos? I can't decide myself!
Thanks a lot nice to hear this :) Personally I am a huge fan of black, and I mydelf have a black on black 2019 MINI Cooper, so would go for black. This turbo blue looks maybe a bit more flashy at the start, but black in long term would be better in my opinion. However, for black you do need to clean it all the time to look good (I have ceramic coating on mine) where this blue is much easier to clean and the dirt can’t be seen that much Soo what will it be? 😀😅
@@crospotter13 Wow thx for your great intakes! At the start I was 100% convinced with the all black. But thenew angle and shaped of this A3 seems better revealed with a colour than the "uniform" black and I must admit when I saw your turbo blue... was in trouble then. Amazing beautiful blue and quite distinguished among all those black.

Really not a problem, I have been driving a similar car for 1.5 years now and I have never been annoyed or blinded by the infotainment. Especially because when you are in a dark place the screen turns to dark mode so it's far less bright than during the day.
