Make sure you watch until the end! Thanks for watching!
The tts is a super car for the money and highly tunable. The mirrors are actually brushed aliminuim. The DSG is 5.2 0-60mhp and the manual is 5.4 secs I am 6ft 2 and got lots of room and the kids fit in the back no problem at all 👍 The hairdresser joke comes from the 2001 mk1 tt which is a completely different car to the mk2.
💯
Everyone overlooks the huge advantage the back seats bring! Push the passenger seat forward a little and there's ample room for 2 kids. Then you have a sports car suitable for school runs, works really well for me.
I've got an 11 plate 3dr s3 8p manual , I also looked at the tts but the s3 just made more sense for my needs, each to their own but manual all the way for me when it comes to a hot hatch.
S3 is definitely more practical
What’s dwane said is right on the money! I looked at s3 but got the tts and put the child sit in the back, no joke lol.
Awesome video, looking at getting one in few months cant find many reviews of the 8J TTS so this has helped a lot
Actually pretty cool cars.. idiots who comment "hair dresses cars" 🤦🏾♂️ that term is referred to the mk1 tt... loving the review mate! Keep it up!!!
Couldn’t agree more mate! More reviews coming very soon 🤙🏻
I have a 2010 TTS that I have owned from new, it has just hit 58000 miles. Just love it, normally I have got bored quickly with driving the same car, not this one.
Black on the out side, black and red inside, what could be better. and best of all it's a stick change. Strangely I have not changed a thing it is totally standard just as it came out of the factory.
Would you recommend the manual then ?? I have had 2 tt’s before but the last one was brand new on a 57 plate so a long time ago , never had a tts but I’m seriously thinking of getting one like yours
@@wbev_thai1666 yes go for the manual, 100%
Great video! I picked up my first MK2 TT on the weekend, absolutely adore it so far! It's not a TTS but still incredibly fun to drive 😄
May i ask how much you paid? I see one for 17k 2008 145kms
@@emmanuelw9832 £8,500 2L 2011. I think it had 60k miles on it when I picked it up :)
@@EllaJ oh dang! That’s a great price for today’s market! I was looking at a 2010 white 2.0 for 16,900 CAD and it had 145k kms . I couldn’t justify the price :/ even though it was so fun to drive
Hi EllaJ , can I ask ...has it been reliable since your 2 years of ownership? ,
Cheers ,
Lee.
@@Lee-cz6ss hey Lee! Still reliable 2 years down the line 😁
Great video, I really like the TTS
I am looking to get a tts but dsg only, live in London in a built up area full of speed humps and loads of traffic, so tired if manuals now will go with the dsg
Nice video! I love my manual TT 08 plate, 60K miles. Picked up last year in mint condition. The TT was made for A and B roads which happens to be my way to work every day. I'd love to take it to the Lake District or Highlands. The dealer I got it from sent me to an A road nearby to have a go for the first time on any TT. Came back reluctantly after 30 minutes and bought it on the spot. Love my SUV for the road trip and bad weather but the TT is a joy to drive. May upgrade to the TTS at some point but won't rush.
I think on the right roads you can always have fun in a TT, whether it’s a TTS or TT!
I'm 6'1" and have a tts and there's plenty room! Maybe he will agree now you've told him how to lower the seat haha. Mine is a face-lift DSG that is stage 2 tuned by R-Tech and it's a proper little weapon. The hair dresser car digs come from Jeremy Clarkson fan boys from the video he made on the mk1 years back and it's stuck. Luckily I don't give a monkey what people think and it's helped me get it for decent money if anything. Bang for buck you can't get much better imo
You're absolutely right. The hairdresser comment is so stupid. I used to dream about the car when I was 18 living in Brazil. Moved up here some 15 years ago and got me a TT last year to be my daily when weather is decent without ever hearing the comment and then someone mentioned it and I went that's rubbish, who says that? It's only in this country that people would say this about the car. Proper car people in other countries would just go you know not what you say. Anywhere in North or South America the TT is just a huge icon and worth 3-4 times more than here.
What sort of power you getting at stage 2?
Local lad? Thats Earlswood lakes I spy. On the hunt for a TTS so thanks for the video review.
Got to love a tt mk2 and doing things to them such a great platform 👍
I also have a tts pre-facelift and though about a ttrs spoiler but getting a genuine one isn’t worth the money in my opinion.
I have one and it’s great over 400bhp at the moment, and I probably mess more 😂
The car is also not new. For 60,000 miles you can except a little decrease in 0-60 times. Nice car tho I want a tts🔥🔥
New subscriber here - whenever this lock down is done let’s try to link up. Wouldn’t mind arranging a little drag race with my one 👀
I don’t know why or how but my TTS is so much louder than every other TTS 😂😂😂 It’s 100% Stock just some nice specs on it
Blown cat haha
@@P7PatYT 😂😂🤷♂️ I don’t care to be honest if that would be the reason
@@raullopeslem3129 nothing but extra points in my books more performance and if police stop you, you had no idea haha
Nice video mate ! What a lovely car! Car couldve easily gone quicker, launch aggression was good but short shifted 1st with slow gear changes ! But tbf his looking after the car so fair play! Great video non the less ! And lovely car/ owner
Yeah I agree about first gear. The TTS definitely has way more to it other than just 0-60 times though! 👍🏻
Got one of these dont feel that fast definitely a little quicker than my old focus st but 270ish bhp was expecting bit more
I think the low ground clearance adds to the experience
Need to stage 2+ it then see if you feel the same 😁
@@atyler5332 I’m trying to convince the owner Jake!
@@CarsWithSmithy He wouldn't regret it! Surprises a few people for a "hairdressers car"
Although, a bit more costly in manual form..
Like the content mate, nice to get regular tfsi talk.
I think it's an alright time for not being a guy who launches his car n really drives it hard. I get 5.8 sec 0-100km/h best in my Cupra 1P Stage 1.
Just recently bought a 1P Leon FR but it doesn't really do it for me so I'm deciding whether I should get a cupra or one of these. What's the ride in yours like?
@@isucc4shekels779 The ride isn't what i would call good but neither was it in my S3 8P, so it might just be the chassie. I do have lowering springs. I do really like my Cupra R but i do miss my S3 at the same time. If you're getting a TTS/S3 I think you might as well get a DSG, cause whats the reason for haldex if not. If you're thinking about a manual car i would go with a Cupra R unless you feel the need for DSG/Haldex.
@@MrZyLeXx Thanks for the reply, I'm thinking it would probably be the dsg if I did choose the TT as I've heard nothing but good things about the dsg. The Audi would be my first automatic and I've heard it's a cracking car but a bit dull to drive. I guess it just comes down to comfort Vs feedback.
@@isucc4shekels779 I mean it's different to what u compare it to. Get a tune n an exhaust, they're not dull anymore. But fully stock they're quite boring honestly. I feel that's the problem with most german 4cyl cars.
@@MrZyLeXx I'm more on about the handling as a few friends who previously owned S3's, TT's etc have said there's little to no feedback resulting in a rather lifeless drive once the new car excitement wears off. I probably will just end up going for TTS since it's a banging package for the price they're currently going for. It's a shame to see so many diluted 4 pots nowadays but i guess they're all just competing for the largest market share.
I cant find an 08 tts for sale anywhere
This one is for sale
Sell your s3 and buy the TTS please I have this car and I need to see you transform it into a real beast. DSG is the way tbh
Maybe one day I’ll get one!
needs to learn to drive and hold in gear for much longer, i mean who hits 4th gear on a simple 0-60 run?
Everyday is a school day!
That's nice that but I rather my S3
Still a hair dressers car 😂.....nice video reviews are something I’d love to get into eventually 👌🏻
How is it a hairdressers car 🙄
Really you went from s3 you went for a hair dressers car 🤔 time to leave
The S3 hasn’t been sold 👀
I think anyone who has had the pleasure of owning any Audi S model, would understand theres a huge following around the world. Exciting, classy they can be as fast or as scary as you wont. Mk2 2009 TTS owner.
Clarkson and his big mouth eh.
