Audi TT TDi - so what's the thoughts...

[BCER]

Hello,

I am thinking that the Audi TT TDi might just make the perfect car in a bit. It looks good goes fast and is good on the old fuel.... But what do you all think is it any good or is it Just wrong.

It combines a bit of my last two cars, GTM Libra, (Fun,Fast and good looking) and the current one a Fabia VRs, (Ok, Fast ish and er practical).

Cheers

Fifth Gear tested it on Monday if you're interested:

Interesting, He did not really like it. Mind you the fact that it did not get it’s tail out and head for a hedge like the BM is a plus in my book lol But if the TT TDi has lost ist mid range grunt then oh dear is that not the point! But the Audi blurb I think said that it is faster in the mid range than the 2.0 Tfsi, (aka thingy) one…

Any one got one?

I havent got one but they do look very nice. Although the 123D is faster the TT is probably the nicer car to spend time in and it looks a lot cooler.

I lent a customer of ours one a few weeks ago and he came back saying "it just dosn't seem like a TT"

Its aimed at people who want the looks but are happy to compromise performance for economy, which really goes against the spirit of the TT completely IMO. There are a few more engine/gearbox combo's due later this year, might be worth seeing what comes up.

Plus the real-world MPG figures for the 170 diesel and the tfsi engines mean there's not a big fuel cost saving to be made - especially if the 11p price difference continues.
