Came home my holiday today and popped over to my mums to borrow her new TT for a week while she and my old man are away. I absolutely love it, always thought the TR was a women's only car but I am slowly coming round to its a women's / young guys motor!? Old men just look like perv's in them! Very nice to drive as you expected from Audi and it's so planted to the road but is quite a harsh drive for standard set up which may put a lot of people off with the state of our roads! It's the 1.8 tfsi engine think its 170 or 180 bhp. Bit slower than what I have and like but i certainly wouldn't turn my nose up at one! .......... or am I turning gay!?

That's looks very smart Kenny,I don't see very many in red... :cool:
-
Yea I noticed that too. Really like red on cars now, white is too played out now. Vauxhall ruined it with the 1.2 Corsas!!
-
Wheels are naf on the TT prefer the GTI anyday but then I'm not sold on the TT overrated motor!! :evil:
-
Think it looks nice mate, not sold completely but think it could be a possible for the next car thread!!
-
Looking at the car thread am surprised its not been mentioned and just about every other car out there!! :laugh:
I like the wheels and they are a pleasure to clean like the monzas! :smiley:

I'm going to miss cleaning the Monza's Kenny, as you say a pleasure and so quick and easy to get them looking superb :smiley: . Not so easy with the Talladega's; will probably take me 3 times longer to clean them.

It looks good in the red...
-
Bring the R up here! I'll look after it!
-
I love TT's, have always fancied owning one. The shape is a great piece of design.
Not practical enough for me though at the moment with the toddler (although the mrs has the family car).

Nice try Kenny :grin:
-
TT looks great :cool:
I didn't realise they did the lower powered version, thought they all started with the same engines as the Golf GTi/GTD.
-
I think they're great cars. Looks nice in red too!
Made me laugh at the old man/perv bit as my dad drives one!! :grin:
My friend has a white TTS and it is a monster of a car - TTS looks best in sprint blue IMO as the styling mods get lost on white/silver
-
I still fancy a TTRS
-
My boss had a TTRS roadster in metallic white on trial for a week while he was choosing his company car. He let me have it for one day. It was savage, awesome fun....still felt a bit of a girl driving it though..

Kenneth,
I understand your view on the tiTTies, but personally think that the original was the more girly/hairdressers version.
I think that the new one is now more 'manned-up', so wouldn't be ignorant to these

i have previously owned the audi tt mark 2 2.0 way back in 2006 when new tt's were rare- it was a major head turner and the ride is far better than the gti(mark 6) which i own now. the driving position is faultless and is faster than the gti and more accomplished on the motorway. neat touches like the pop up spoiler is fun, the "farting" of the exhaust at speeds is cool. it was truly a sports car compared to its predeccessor. it was great having a tt with so few on the road, now you see one in every street.
tt's still look very fresh and new especially the rs and the prices are very affordable evn though it is 6 yrs since its launch- u need to be aware that a mark 3 is imminent.
btw i have also owned a boxster 987 gen 2 which is the most amazing car to drive- the feel of the steering wheel is amazing(second to none) and the grunt of the engine is top. unfortunately it was sold in march for my dad's 991s.

I went from a Mk 6 GTI to the 211hp TT ...essentially the same engine, but lots more torque (350Nm compared to 280 of the Golf), and that makes it a really enjoyable car to drive..well built and after 18months been problem free.
Will probably go back to the GTI when the mk 7 comes out, which I've read is getting this TT version of the 2.0 but it's been a nice change having the TT....

Interesting, never knew that, thought the engine specs were he same throughout the VAG group.

Agreed, but another car for nice birds (from what I have seen) is also the Mini. 8 out of 10 times there is usually a 'totty' driving one of these !
-
:grin: showed the g/f this as she's a proud mini owner! She hopes she's one of the 8 but it's debatable! :tongue:
-
Yeah I was toying with changing the Golf for a Mini SD so obviously was looking more closely at every one I came across and out of the 20 or more I saw, I think I only seen 1 bloke driving one!!

The old ones looked a little girlie but i like the new ones would love a TTRS but not got £50k spare :shocked:
-
big mistake i made when i test drove a 2.0 TT 3.5 years ago was i drove it back to back with a S3 (which was same price as TT in spec i wanted) and oddly ended up with a scirocco, in reality if they did a delete rear seat option i would have been more tempted
love the styling especially after the facelift and was tempted by a second hand tt-rs instead of the ed35, tt-s is overlooked but i think my guilty pleasure of the range at the moment is the tdi which would make a great company hack
