- I have always been a huge fan of the Audi TT, but the Roadster NOT the Coupe. Thanks to Audi UK I have spent the last month driving a TTS Coupe and it has converted me. Fast but not too fast, Huge grip and B Road performance and the thing I didn't expect....REALLY PRACTICAL !
I take a drive to our house in Mevagissey and share my experiences of the last month and nearly 2000 miles.

Never mind the car im jealous of having a house in Cornwall, seriously though i have a S5 Sportback and the rain water coming in the boot is a pain, it also does it on occasion with the front doors if the car is parked on a street with a bit of a rake and if you power wash the front doors at a certain angle a small amount of water will manage to spray inside due to the frameless windows.
I owned a 2017 TTS for 8 months and adored it for 7 months of that ownership. It then started to rattle badly, so surprised. And I also thought the mag ride even in comfort was pretty poor. So it had to leave the family but was replaced by a Porsche Cayman 718 ! Needless to say I don’t miss it

I’ve had a TDI for 4 1/2 years and have enjoyed every minute behind the wheel. I do about 18k a year (and pay for my own fuel!) s economy was a major consideration when I bought it, but the fun factor, even with “only” 180bhp, is very high. The handling is second to none, the comfort is as you describe (very good) and the tech is intuitive and extensive. I am also a fan of rag tops, but the TT coupe just looks far better and I have never regretted getting it rather than the roadster. All in all a delightful car to own and drive, and as I look for a replacement I am struggling to find an alternative to getting another one! I only wish Audi did a wider range of leather colours for their interiors. Dark grey or black is very unimaginative!
Audi tt rocks and now there no longer being made 😢. Keeping my 08 mk2 3.2 vr6 manual for a few more years 😊
First video I've seen of yours and really enjoyed it, thanks. I've been thinking of upgrading to first "nice" car and going for a new TTS. Particularly pleased that you could get a road bike in reasonably easily!! What optional extras would you say are a must?
Best review of the TTs I've seen ou TH-cam. Seriously weighing up options for my midlife fun car. Was thinking of BMW 4 series or Audi S5. Both good cars but after test driving the TTs, that's the one that excited me rather than "that was a nice comfortable fast car". I've had a lifetime of sensible cars😁😁
I want a ttrs so bad
Put a nice seat belt sleeve high up.on your shoulder .belt won't move ..Tidy car
Great 'real-world' review Pete. I've had my 2015 TTS for 3 months now and use it daily in London, with regular weekend trips out of town. It's been phenomenal so far, striking the perfect balance between a sporty city car with impressive practicality, easy going motorway cruiser and a total beast whenever the opportunity arises. The S-tronic box and various driving modes are so flexible, allowing me to drive in whichever mood I'm in, which is a huge real-world bonus. The 20" alloys are a nightmare in town but apart from the little issues you've pointed out, I don't think there are many sporty cars that offer such an all-round package. I highly recommend the TTS as a perfect daily! Looks fab in Sepang Blue too! 😊👌 Have a great holiday and enjoy your remaining time with the car! 👍
love the way you reply to everyone, nice touch
Always practical in your reviews. Much appreciated.
The 2015+ tts convertible is one of my favourite dream cars for just chilling with the open roof going through the mountains in a sunny day
Ooh a blast from the past! Back catalogue time again. Sleepy pup and a nice balanced review, couldn't ask for much more. Cheers Ped.
Hi Ped
Great video. Thanks for making it.
Your spot on with the steering wheel. Not just audi. Can never get the wheel close enough.... love the red trim.. great vid guys xx
Hi Pete, good to see the pups again. The "TTs sure looks appealing as a small all-rounder. I hope to join the
Fantastic video sir Pete. Love the color of the car! These car always catch my attention. Also I agree a safe fast car for a daily is sensible. Nothing extreme or crazy to drive for a daily
I literally went down a few of those roads yesterday on my way home from a quick trip in Southampton!!
