Audi TT (1999 - 2006 )  

Design icon with surefooted handling and an intricately detailed cabin.

Initial suspension problems. Dashboard failures. Not Audi's finest-built car.

Introduction

Clever people, the Germans. They may be first to lay towels on the hotel sunloungers every morning. But if they make a product we want even more than they do, they let us have it first.

Britain just happens to be Audi's best customer for the TT. They sell us 9,000 a year. But sales of the 225 were dropping off a bit because Brits were waiting for the 250bhp 3.2V6 DSG. So the first 3.2 DSGs to come off the production line have been RHD coupes, all for us.
