The Audi TT is a style icon, unmistakeable and hugely desirable. If you planning to buy a used TT make sure you do a through research and know the car cost, engine size, specification etc. It is also worth working out on your car finance and choose the one that best suits your needs.
Know TT Car History
If you are buying a used car, you absolutely must get the used TT Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and have a mechanic inspect the car on a lift. You are about to purchase a used car for thousands of dollars, don’t get stuck with a lemon because you wanted to save a couple of bucks on a used Audi TT history report.
Know the Audi TT Types –
The Audi TT has truly come of age in second-generation form, as there are now coupé and roadster editions along with a choice of petrol or diesel power. Those opting for the former can choose from a 197bhp four-cylinder 2.0 turbocharged unit, as fitted to the VW Golf GTi. However, from summer 2008 there was a beefed-up version of this engine, offering 268bhp; cars fitted with it carry TTS badges. As with the previous TT, there’s also a 3.2-litre V6 petrol option, but something never offered before is a diesel engine. Introduced in summer 2008, the diesel TT features a 2.0TDi engine giving 168bhp and 50mpg.
Audi TT Specifications –
1. Looks of Audi TT
The Audi TT still has a short, curvy stance, with a curvaceous roofline and slightly flared wheel arches. The front features Audi’s trademark grille and a pair of sculpted headlines containing intricate patterns hiding sidelights and indicators.
2. Audi TT Interior
Like every other model in Audi’s current range, it blends Germanic style with tremendous build quality. All models feature 17-inch alloys, a 9-speaker, 140-watt MP3-compatible single CD player, leather/alcantara interior, front sports seats, trip computer, climate control, electrically-operated and heated door mirrors, electric windows and an automatic rear spoiler. The roof is also operated electrically on Roadster models.
3. How practical is the TT?
The boot is surprisingly large for a small coupe, measuring 290 litres; just two litres shy of the ‘Golf coupe’. Space around the cabin is reasonable, and the rear seats provide ample space for luggage without using the boot.
4. Performance of the TT
The Audi TT is fast, whichever engine is chosen. The 2-litre TDi offers 170bhp, but an impressive 258lb/ft of pulling power from 1,750rpm. Read Audi TT review.
Examine the V5 of the used Audi TT. Hold it up to see it has a watermark. Is the car registered to the person selling the car, and at the address you and the car are standing in front of? If not, why not? The car’s number plate must match the document’s registration number. The Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the V5 should match the number. Also ensure that the car has been tested at some MOT Centre.
