What haircut would Sir like today?

[Hixle]

So, after just under 10 months I decided to get shot of the Abarth. It was a good car, but for some unknown reason - and only 'car' people will get this - I just didn't click with it. No idea why.

Anyway, picked up this Fagwagon on Saturday:

It's a late TT Quattro Sport 240. First impressions are good! I have no idea why these get such a 'dull' reputation tbh, it's the first car I've had that has made me giggle since I had the Trophy. Quicker than I was expecting too.

Couple of very quick pictures:

...and obligatory Xenon shot for Alan:

Plans? Well, it needs a decent detail and fresh plates, but other than that I'll be keeping it standard and well maintained I think! Better pictures to follow in the next few weeks.

We'll see how long this one lasts

Cheers,
​Luke.

Love it Luke, if ever you're in Oxford I expect a passenger ride.

 

[deutsche_blonde]

Nice motor. There's a red one near me that looks superb.

 

[Mar172]

Very good car the 240 tt I also like the red & black roof ones as well

 

[Herr Flick]

f**king awesome. Liked my ropey TT 225 so can't imagine how great this one is.

Didn't even realise you could get one on a '56 reg. It looks proper mint and that interior! :hail:

 

[Poopensharten]

By god these have aged well. I also f**king adore those thrones, pole positions are alpha league heroic.

Well played Sir, well played.

 

[Matthew]

Those seats are quality.

 

[Wick]

s'all right

 

[Joe#]

Love that Luke, enjoy it mate.

 

[Gaz85]

Looks great! I love the seats!

 

[George182]

Those seats! Want.

 

[Rob]

Really f**king like that, in every picture I've ever seen of one I haven't liked the wheels, but they look bang on in your pics.

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

Lovely car Lukey boy!!

 

[Gally]

My God you can take a good picture.

240% chairs! Very jealous.

 

[Yosemite Sam]

I absolutely love that Luke. Bloody lovely car.

 

[Russ_16v]

I used to hate these, in fact so much I will use capitals - HATE.

But as of late, I've got 180 - I think they have aged so well, and yours just looks stunning mate! The seats and 2 tone look awesome!

 

[ch!ppen]

Never understood people disliking the wheels on these, looks great imo.

 

[leeds_182]

Looks nice.

 

[Dave..]

I really like that. It's a shame I can't fit in them though!

 

[BigDaveRotary]

Short back and sides please!

I do love a nice QS. Looks good buddy.

 

[david hodson]

Looks great, are the seat backs painted the same colour as the car ?

 

[jam.]

Bloody love that Luke - I think I want one again, just not a 180 this time..

 

[marshall878]

Interior looks so clean!

Love it.

Cant say ive ever noticed these on the road.....*runs off to eBay*

 

[Nickson]

Looks great Luke, those seats are full of awesomeness.

 

[Hixle]

Cheers chaps! More positive than I thought!

f**king awesome. Liked my ropey TT 225 so can't imagine how great this one is.

Didn't even realise you could get one on a '56 reg. It looks proper mint and that interior! :hail:

I didn't either tbh Rich, hence my shock in the other thread about the tax, lol.

By god these have aged well. I also f**king adore those thrones, pole positions are alpha league heroic.

Well played Sir, well played.

I still can't believe the design is some 15 odd years old now, mental! I love the seats too, watching the wench try to climb out of them is amusing too!

I used to hate these, in fact so much I will use capitals - HATE.

But as of late, I've got 180 - I think they have aged so well, and yours just looks stunning mate! The seats and 2 tone look awesome!

Cheers Russ. Yeah, I have to be honest, I was never a TT fan per say when they were first about. Love the looks now though.

Looks great, are the seat backs painted the same colour as the car ?

They are indeed mate. I originally wanted a red one with the red seats, but the silver/black combo really suits it IMO.

 

[Ian_182]

That looks very nice.

 

[Philip.]

I am so jealous.

Drove one of these a year or so ago and loved them since.
Gorgeous example too.

 

[Lal B3N]

Very nice!

I don't think i could leave it standard though when there is just so much available for them haha!

 

[Knuckles]

don't normally like these but that is immense... puff

 

[Gally]

Does it have an aftermarket exhaust or matt tips/dirty tips?

 

[Lukas1]

Lovely car, as said they have aged so well. What lens did you use to capture the interior shots if you don't mind my asking?

 

[Adam.P]

I love this Luke, those seats are 1000% win as well!

 

[2Damnsly Andy]

Lovely looking car, not a fan of the wheels and the tuning packages for these are insane.

 

[LiamR172]

Those seats....

Looks lovely

 

[_Tom]

Nice. I could have had one recently but I couldnt get on with them.

 

[Stefan.]

I love the interior, just not so keen on the exterior personally.

 

[Rob]

I'm pretty annoyed Luke, I keep looking at it and quite want one.

In a year when you're bored shall we swap?

 

[Munson]

Heavy gay but at least it has chairs taken straight from God's track car.

 

[Matt_90]

I like... will suit you and your dress sense down to the ground!

I need an excuse to take some photos of something with 4 wheels, meet for some photos and beer? Drop me a message on FB.

 

[DanielJames]

Lovely Interior

The exterior is perhaps not what I would have gone for but still very nice.
