New Car, mk1 TT 3.2

[Davis]

I've had this a few months now, not got round to putting some photos up.

I am loving it so far, i am averaging 22mpg but i didn't buy it for its economy. It is such a solid car to drive and the dsg box is amazing, i wasn't sure about this at first but glad I've got it now.

Just replaced the front brakes which were pretty expensive but they are massive, and had the dsg and haldex serviced.

It sounds so so good, flapper mod was done as soon as i got it home.

Here's a few snaps,

Looks factory fresh! Excellent in red. Got the same engine & box combo in my Golf, it's a great drivetrain.

That is flippin' lovely!

I'm not a fan of the wheels, but who cares when it looks that clean and tidy!

Great buy mate. The rear diffuser and spoiler just make the rear. Brilliant stuff.

Interior colour? I searched for ages for a Misano Red one but no luck. I did pick up a bargain Avus Silver one on 75k...

 

[Gaz85]

That looks lovely

 

[Davis]

Its got grey leather, really would have liked black interior but there wasn't many misano red ones about so went for this.

This is on 67k on a 54 plate, got it for a good price aswell, hopefully won't lose to much on it.

Your flapper mod video on youtube made my mind up!

 

[Gally]

Thanks mate. It just sounds proper in person as you know.

Even just after picking it up my boss was moving it and you can hear it, it sounds expensive. It sounds like it's a proper engine in comparison to the sewing machines i've been used to.

Nice buy!

First time seeing this thread and Gally was the most recent comment, I thought he'd gone and bought another lol!

Looks lovely ... should of got a 225 though

Which is the better car? 225 or v6 ? which cost more?

 

[Davis]

The v6 looks a lot better in my eyes as it has the bigger spoiler and better front bumper! As for costs the v6 does about 3mpg less than the 225 and the servicing is pretty much the same! The tax is also the same!

The 225 is alot more tuneable. But the 3.2 Noise is so awesome!

 

[Gally]

You'd need to be on drugs to buy a 225 over a V6 tuning or not!

This!

That looks lovely, I really really like these!

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Looks lovely! How much do the V6s fetch these days? Really loving TTs at the moment

 

[Davis]

You can pick a decent one up from 5k some go for upwards of 8k though.

 

[Rob]

Love the red. Wish these were a folding hard top.

 

[DanielJames]

Nice purchase!

Weird as I was looking at the 225s last night, seem to be getting into bargain territory!

 

[Bjorn]

I like that a lot. Reminds me of when I first saw a TT in '98.

 

[banther]

Nice!

 

[Martin.]

Love the sound of these! Very little sounds better once the flapper mod has been done.

Get some spacers for the rear wheels. Really improves the look in my opinion.

Here's my old one...
