    The sound design is more than just background noise; it’s an integral part of the experience.💚

    A lovely looking car with a fantastic interior that shows how it should be instead of all these stupid touchscreens. Fabulous video Ped and congratulations on having achieved your 200k subscribers you’ll be at 500k before long😄

    I have a TTRS, TTS (both MK3’s), and a 718 Cayman. In total I’ve had 4 TT’s. You are correct in your assumption that the Porsche is an overall better driving experience. By most accounts, my TTRS is far and away a better car in terms of tech, interior, HP, room, Quattro, etc. However, more often than not, I’ll grab the 718’s key fob.

      Would never dismiss the TTRS or its close relative RS3..both great cars and last of their generations. If you drive them you are fully aware of their capabilities. Unfortunately I think they get stereotyped with the demographic who drive them especially as they get passed down the food chain . Personally prefer the chassis dynamics of the 4.0GTS that I now drive at weekend. Both fabulous engines though and to be celebrated as long as possible

    Whilst I am not certain about how the emissions penalties work, there clearly is a fair bit of offsetting of E.V.s , hybrids and various I.C.E.s, to come up with average values for emissions. Certain engines are no longer deemed to be viable ….. V8 non turbos etc. I guess that the 5 cylinder and the V10 are for chop too. There is a lot of fiscal massaging going on.

    I really liked the TTRS convertible even considered one before buying my Z4 m40i.
    Loved its performance in all weather but not its interior, in such a flash out there car why no colour options for interior leather BMW does, also no HUD BMW has.
    Arguably these are small things but for me deal breakers.
    The TTRS isn’t a cheap car I’d like it to be as near to my ideal spec as possible for the money

    Hanging on to my Mk2 3.2 dsg. Love the design , the smooth linear power and it has enough grip and acceleration to make B roads great fun 😊

    My daughter has just bought a MK3 TT S-Line TDi Ultra and its a cracking little car (ok, no RS like my RS3) but great all the same. I struggle to understand where the extra £30k has gone towards in the Iconic Edition when it is purely cosmetic. I could just about understand if it was 10k but 30k????? I would have expected more power, carbon buckets, trick suspension etc etc.

    My wife’s had five TTs from new over the years and loved every one of them. However, there’s no way on earth that this RS can justify its price, even if it is one of the last ever. For £80+k you can buy a lot of car.

    What a lovely bit of kit. You’re making me miss my MK3 TT! I had it in red with 19” alloys, h&k 30mm lowered suspension – which was harsh af haha.

    Brilliant review Pete! As I’ve already said, such a pity saying goodbye to the gorgeous TT. Have driven one, second generation. I absolutely love the interior with those beautiful air vents, and every control just where it should be. Not to mention the sound the 5-pot makes. Funny you mention an issue with a rubber oil seal. Had the same problem, although less damaging, on a Passat Estate 1.8T back then.
    Anyway, bye bye TT😢😢😢
    Cheers, Tom

    Previous owner of a Mk2 TT. Genuinely miss that thing, but sold it and I am now looking at a 718 Boxster S/GTS. Having driven both, I agree that the 718 is more fun to drive, but my god the TT line is EASILY the most practical sports car you can buy. I can’t tell you how many times I moved in mine, fitting in a full size mattress and computer gadgets. Amazing car for more casual sports car owners and I’m so sad to see them go.

    What a lovely car! I’d totally forgotten about Audi finding it necessary to add a ducktail spoiler to the 1st-gen TT. That was an example of aerodynamics as a safety first!
    I’ve always preferred the shape of the coupé; the sweep of the roof structure was part of the theatre of the design. Sad to see these leave the new car market. That’ll mean the existing ones will be the ones to treasure and cherish.
    It was also nice to see that ice all over the top of your example. A pleasant reminder of days of owning a car in cold climes. Aloha!

    Great classic car. I didn’t like the design when it first came out but I think the later ones are brilliant. I bought one in 2020 and sold it in 2022 as I moved abroad. ( cars here in NL are stupidly expensive so I can’t afford one ). I now have a hybrid EV which has confirmed my suspicions that EVs are a vanity project and will end the same as high speed rail.

    I’ve become infatuated with the mk3 TT/TTS recently. Ara blue, vegas yellow, or the orange (which I can’t remember the name of) would be ideal for me. Genuinely don’t think there’s a better car for me at the moment! Just me and my partner, no kids, weekly food shop, occasional journey up to Scotland 😀

    Going for an Up GTI! while life sorts itself out, then maybe the TTS later this year🥰

    Beautiful car ….. I have the Mk3 45 Quattro and just love it. Space in the back with the ‘seats’ down is fantastic and the drive is great. I know it’s not a Porsche but neither was the price and for what I paid for it, it is a lot of fun !
    Would love the RS or even the TTS.

    Got the original Mk1 ( no wing/ smooth boot). 180HP Quattro, 5 Spd manual in Amulet Red in 2000. Great all season car (in winter equipped with appropriate tires). Great unique exterior shape & stance and classic interior as you mention. Replaced after 7 yrs with 07 base Boxster 5Spd & following its lease end got a new 09 base Boxster at years end at a good price that had some appealing engine characteristics (2.9L/no IMS), larger wheels, 6 Spd, and now at 130000 kms, is a keeper. If I had the space at the time, that Mk 1 TT may still have been here. But as someone else commented here, I may have still reached for the Boxster for the fun drives-and maintaining any 23 yr old car especially if one isn’t using it regularly can be an adventure.

    I can recall when they were launched. They seemed like a beautiful concept car that had been brought to life. They stood out on the motorway. They were in a niche of their own. Audi seemed a bit braver then and launched cars like the A2 which was ahead of its time and not really appreciated at the time. I used to joke about grey cars – but have just ordered a new grey one from Audi locally lol. 😃
