Picked it up on Thursday and absolutly love it, drug dealer tastic.

ITs fast yes, but its nice to drive and is pretty good on fuel, very nice interior also.

Doesnt handle as well as the RX8 and its deffinatly not as track focused but a good allround car, i just couldnt take the fact the RX8 was over £1500 more to RUN a year than the TT.

I had one when the new model shape came out, 2 years ago? I thought the handling was pretty good compared to most small sports type cars. Can't really think of anything to fault it on apart from the excuse for a rear seat, I could *just* gets the kids in there, then again it ain't a family car.

launch control was far to complicated for me to remember but you can have loads of fun on private roads with the traction control turned off!

Indeed, the rear seats i will use as storage, or emergency passengers, i already managed to fit someone 6ft dead although very very uncomfortable, like i say emergency.

Cant wait to take it to the Ring next year.

What age are you and how did you afford that ? Twisted Evil

You be stopped everywhere in that here unless you wore a suit and where 30+ in age with a phone stuck to your ear. 20 something year old would get ripped out of the car, searched for drugs, points for using a mobile phone and accused of drug dealing. Laughing

I am just jealous. Mr. Green

Nice Thumbs Up I wasn't keen on TTs when they came out, not helped because the bloody things were everywhere. Slowly though they've grown on me, to the point where the Quattro Sport version I walk past every day on my way to work is one of the nicest looking cars on the roads.

Glad you enjoy it.

You'd be surprised. Car prices have been plummeting for a while in the current financial climate.

Mainland insurance is a fair bit cheaper (not as much difference as it used to be, when I was 17 NI insurance was ~4 times the cost of mainland insurance for me).

Thought an estate agents car at the moment was just a bus pass.

All the best

It's not exactly a drug dealers car, more like a slightly upmarket schoolrun mum car, or a hairdressers car, or an estate agents car, or a red bull sales rep car etc etc Wink

If you want to be a drug dealer you need an old 5 series with limo black windows and big alloys.
