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.

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! 👍

Best review of the TTs I've seen ou KZbin. 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😁😁

My driver is a 2012 A4 Avant. Purchased new, numerous issues. However since replacing pistons and rings at 50 k and a number of modifications added I thoroughly enjoy it. My wife has a 2014 TTS that I also enjoy driving. Im currently awaiting delivery on a 2022 Chronos Grey TTS. My wife will take the Avant as hers, and I get her TTS to trade on the 2022 TTS. Actually the best of both worlds, I’m the primary driver for both of the Audis. 👍

They are dropping the TT because it sells so few. Part of that is because everybody wants SUVs, part of that is because there's an $11,000 USD difference between a TT and its equivalent A3-series counterpart. You get less car for more money and that makes it a hard sell for what is otherwise the same vehicle. Like, TTS money gets you an RS3...

I decided to use a seatbelt clip to do away with the seatbelt pressure and lack of height adjustment. The TT is my second car and the first is an SUV so just could not get used to the low positioning of the seatbelt on the TT. The cheap clip from Amazon did the trick beautifully.

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!

A very timely and helpful review for me as I am right in the middle of trying to decide what my next car will be. I have always been a fan of the TT but have never owned one, but now I am struggling to knock it off my short list. One of the reasons I have passed on them before is the view I have heard amongst my fellow petrol heads that it is a ladies car (some of the less reverent of my social circle even call it a hairdressers car...). At the risk of further offending the male respondents here I welcome (polite) replies that I can pass on.... Seriously, as somebody who once owned a 911 but can no longer afford one I see a lot of parallels in the TT(S) in terms of performance and practicality - for less than half the price ! Hmmm... sorely tempted.

I can say the first few generations did look like a LADIES car, had the total VW beetle look etc..........HOWEVER, that changed in the last update COMPLETELY! More than EVER this car draws WOMEN in for the DATE! It has overcome all of the short comings in looks, mean looking front end, sexy curves entirely, gives the R8 a run in the looks department! Compared to PORSCHE, this car is a toyota for reliability! Buy used and certified etc, at 45% less and you have found HEAVEN on EARTH! Handles in my opinion much better than a Porsche cayman S (not the 911) and looks better than a $300,000 Mclaren IMO!

I went from 2017 TTS, then an RS3 sportback, to a 2019 TT RS - no issues with day to day practicality in the TT and with the rear seats folded, I can get all my fishing gear in, the same as my RS3 actually. OK, rear 'seats' are for kids, both other than that, a great daily driver and MUCH sharper than my RS3 to drive. Better driving position as well and no stupid pop up screen to distract me. Glad Audi didn't put one in the TT. Only thing I don't like are the fake rear vents on my car and the slightly muted sound - my RS3 popped and crackled, my new TT RS doesn't. I'm currently looking for an aftermarket exhaust and remap to solve this issue.

Hey bro. I’ve had an F type V6S and a TTS, and driven the TTRS. I can tell you that whilst I think the F type is the best sounding out of the 3, the TT’s are way more fun to drive - they’re sport cars, the F type is more of a GT and feels more boaty. I’d definitely say get the TTS if you’re after good handling and performance, and get the F Type if you’re after sporty cruiser.

Great job! Looking at the TTS or a Golf R. I'm an old guy that loves to shift manual but the TTS is so pretty I think I could give up the stick. Too bad we don't get manual version of the TTS in the US. Either way I don't think I can go wrong MK& Golf R is nice too.

Good review. Having done a similar trip to Helston last week it was interesting to hear how you would get on in a small sports coupe. It does seem a capable car to have as a daily for most people. I quite like those red bits on the seats as it breaks up the endless black and silvers we see in most German cars. Hope you had as good weather as we did along the coast 👍

I really enjoyed that. Mevagissey looks beautiful as well. I was genuinely considering the TTS as my next car, but I went ahead and purchased the new Golf GTI TCR, which is due in October. I suppose like you, I'm quite brand loyal and I've had many VW's. Including my current 2016 GTI Performance. There's something about how a GTI drives that just gets me. But I do have soft spot for the TT and maybe the next upgrade after the new car might be the TT RS 😍😁

Hi Darren. I totally get that. I think a Golf GTi or R would be an amazing daily. Brilliant cars to drive. I have always thought I'd got hatch (S3, Golf or as it turns out Mini GP3 !) if I didn't want the soft top any more. The coupe format worked much better than I thought it would and also looks mega 👌

Nothing wrong with the mag ride in the TTS. I owned one for a year - Comfort was the best setting - not just from a ride perspective, but handling too. I tracked it twice and found Dynamic did the turn in no favours and in Comfort, the car felt much more balanced. I did look at a Cayman GTS before ordering my TT RS - what I didn't like was the dated interior, poor practicality and crappy engine sound. Close call though, but the RS I have now is awesome.

I’m lucky enough to have one. Every day you can drive a different form of car. Auto / manual / paddles/ sport/. Dynamic/ economy/ configure your own between engine / gearbox/ suspension performance. It’s endless. And on and on. The TTS is the fore runner in design for every other car. That includes the r8. Just make sure you choose your replacement tyres as Audi recommend. I didn’t , I chose and went for Dunlop. Because I was going through a se of fronts after 7 k. Dunlop’s is too soft sidewall although quieter and last longer. Stick to hankook or it starts with a B. You won’t be beaten in a race with many cars including all porches. 0-62 in 4.3 seconds. Any faster. And you’d shit yourself. I bought myself ne as a for life car. I’m on my fifth year now. No regrets. Nothing went wrong in that time. And whenever I need a thrill during lock down . I’m off at plumptown. Yes I’m still paying it up but be god it’s worth every penny.
