In fairness this guy has more talent than most of the recent Top Gear presenters combined, not quite Clarkson calibre yet but the potential is there and let's face it we are probably going to need a replacement sometime in the not too distant future as the big fella has taken to playing around with tractors.
Sees Mk1 TT, presses like.
Sees cheapest Mk1 TT in Germany, buys it
I prefer the peugeot rcz
@@heldermonteiro2718 there were quite a few beautiful coupés from the 00s, Audi TT, Alfa Romeo GTV, GT and Brera the Fiat Coupé, Honda Integra, Peugeot RCZ, Porsche Cayman etc..
Love my 2003 Quattro Roadster… strictly stock, never any problems… a joy to drive… just turned 84K.
Based on the look only, I hv always loved MK1 TT more than the later gens, cuter yet fierce looking.
Love the Jeremy Clarkson tribute 👌😂
This was a great film 👍
Love my ‘01 225 Quattro roadster. A little over 126k miles and still going strong.
mate you are gifted with a brilliant voice and a sense of humor, i bet you are going to explode sooner or later, i subbed! Good luck
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the awesome feedback and the sub!
Totally in love with my 2001 225 roadster .
My only complaint is mpg other than that I can't complain one bit
Apparently the Audi TT was a “concept car,” not intended to go into production.
As a result, the proud owners of the TT possessed a car which was “over engineered.” Lucky them!
In love with my 2005 3.2 TT mk1 she handles amazing, never had any problems and she has 90K
Same here except 1 mile after I hit 100k I've been getting low oil pressure. Changed out the oil pump which was only changed 10k miles before but its been fine ever since
just landed one of these yesterday. tomorrow will be our first day out in the mountains here in nh. fun vid it made me grin.
Ive owned a 190bhp TT for the last 7 years. A great car suits me perfectly. plenty of poke and plenty of carrying capacity when you fold the back seats down . Plus a lot of aluminium was used so the car is no rot box. Thats why theres so many left on the roads . And the engine with regular oil changes will do 200k miles before you need to retire it .plenty available priced from only £1k or £2k alough id pay a little more and get a nice one .
great video a good rewatch having owned it for a year now
YOO GREAT VID LADS! KEEP IT UP!
Had a good laugh, nice review!
Great program my friend. Be well.
Great vid, loved it. I've just gone stage 2 on my 225 with 3 inch downpipe and sports cat and its amazing
Thanks for watching! That sounds great, enjoy it!
I've got decat pipe, pulls so much harder in the mid/high range 👍
Top stuff mate . Like a prime clarkson
Oi get out of my filming location! Great video
😂😂
Great review buddy
You’re cool. Love your sense of humour. Keep it up! 🛼
These are a good fun car to drive, look amazing too. I used to travel the country in mine and it was quite a good mile muncher. I used the back seats as a storage compartment.
Love the vid mate very entertaining 👏
Thank you Chris!
I can just smell the crayons now. Can't wait to get back back behind the wheel of mine when the weather finally permits.
Still think this shape is the best! I’ve had three.....but now drive a Boxster 987👍
987 is that the spider?
Have owned a 2004 255 coupe and a 2001 roadster - both lovely , expensive to maintain though. Went on to own a mk3 TT for 6 years and enjoyed that too. Fun review - cheers from Brisbane
How expensive is expensive?
Broo hahaha the Clarkson bit was spot on
awesome video! Right to the point and that's how it should be
Thank you!
Well done video. Love my MKI 🔥👍🏻
wow this is your best effort yet, yes it's a Quality Street video, well done The Grand Teen. 😮🙂👍😊😎😎
Thanks Keith! Glad you enjoyed it
I bought one today for 1500$ love it
I miss my mk1 225 manual tt 😢 but now mk2 manual vr6!😂😂
Great video
where did you get those shades from mate, been looking for a pair similar to them for awhile. top video btw
Thanks John! These shades are actually off Amazon 😂 I bought them for a shoot a few years ago and I think I remember paying like £10-15 for them! They’re only fake plastic ones but they do work. Hopefully that’s answered your question
Mine is still good. 2005 DSG 3.2 Quattro SLine. Best car ever made.
This guy is everything 🌡
Top gear, 20 years later version.For who know what I mean.🤣 🤦🏻♂️
Top car for cheap. Paid peanuts for mine bam 225 mapped to 270hp. Bang for buck you cant beat
I had the same thought until my transmission went out:(
Red seatbelts are awesome
Nothing beats it
I'm about to bring my 225 back to life (2001 model) already done a load of work, shift fork/gearbox issue sorted, new clutch, remap and big filter - pulled 271bhp!
still on the original exhaust!
hopefully she'll pass the mot.
No kidding, just a filter and tune? My Malone 1.5 is advertised at 274hp but I assumed this is with full exhaust etc .
I’m saving for this car
This gives me OG Top Gear vibes
Im thinking to buy one but im concerned about the reliability is it as bad as people say? because i've heard a lot, and which one is better the roadster or the coupe?
Well as a 21 year old car you get what you get. Some people get unlucky but I believe the owner of this one has barely anything go wrong with it, even compared some way more modern cars. Some typical things are oil leaks and boost leaks but both are easy fixes in the grand scheme of things. The Coupe definitely looks 100X better but a lot of people like the roadster as a summer car. Hope this helped!
I got 02’ BAM since 20 years ago when I was under 20, my 1st driving L & my first TTQ and I’m still driving in as Daily now along with another sometimes 05’ R53 and 16’ S1
I can tell this TT is reliable enough if we care enough, I have no big issue with except : I replaced DV(OE) with 034 DV, 2 rear Struts with Bilstein, 2 front shocks mounting rubber and 1x Timing belt, 2x driver belt/ serpentine, 1x reservoir coolant , twice of flushing coolants, twice spark plugs and changing engine oil every 5-6K with 5-40 Mobil 1 that’s all and No MOD than basic 225HP
Nice video, and clothing part was straight from Jeremy Clarksson Top Gear clip :D But still cool.
Haha i love this review... yea i love my TT everyone looks at it like wtf is that.... haha
-it's so curvy it puts Kim Kardashian to shame😂
What did the modifications do to the insurance costs ? I know it’s a boring mundane sort of question but it is important.
Really depends what want to mod (and what you declare). For example an exhaust might raise it £50 or so, while something bigger like a suspension, turbos and remaps would raise it quite a lot more
bravo. This is good
Jeremy Clarkson made this video much better.
I wanna buy this as my first car.. Maybe slightly modifying it as well.. Any tips + normal costs for the mk1 Audi tt? Thanks
Year later but from my experience… it’s a quick car for your first car if you modify it. Probably too fast.
Get one that’s been well maintained, I bought a decent low mileage one but have spent 2-3k getting it up to scratch due to things I should have checked.
I’ve had a lot of quick cars but I really love my 225. It’s still very quick with a remap and some bolt on mods and very practical considering the size.
Nice video bro. How many miles to these typically last until they need serious work? Been looking at one from 2003 but it’s got 120k on the clock… Think it’ll still be reliable?
Thanks Nathan! It depends on how well you look after it, bit like most classic cars. I’d say 120k is okay but I’d recommend you find one with a little less miles on it just so you know you can enjoy it before they go wrong. This one had about 110k miles on it and there were a few minor problems with it. It depends on your preference! Hope this helped :)
@@CarCultureClub Thanks for the reply mate, it was helpful - I went off and bought a roadster with 80k miles instead. Even though lots of people hate the convertible model I think it’s great. Gonna have to test it on the roads in the video, I live just round the corner haha 😄
@@nathanskingley ahh that’s fantastic news, congrats on the purchase! I think the convertible is still great, you’ll be able to get the roof down when the weather starts getting better! Do you live locally then?
@@CarCultureClub thank you mate! Yeah that’s what I’m thinking, plus it drives great too. I do yeah about a 5 minute drive from where you filmed this, funny that 😅
@@nathanskingley oh fantastic, we aren’t far from this location, we’re in Ascot. Not sure if you know where that is but only up the road!
I remember this top gear episode 😂.... Well done with your own flair
Great Clarkson parody! Lol!
Amazing video kinda like the old and best topgear
Thanks!
I love the Clarkson reference 😂
My friend wants to trade me his 2000 tt 1.8 for my 2001 330ci 3.0 5 speed... Only thing is he don't have a spoiler on it.. I have a wing on mine that's universal... Should I do the trade?
Top gear reference O.K.!
huehuehue, he knocked off the skit Clarkson did about getting dressed reviewing the very same mk1 TT
You're like a good combination of Clarkson and May
hahahahha I look like that when driving my TT......ray bans are de rigueur, of course. The statue is wellington so my old stomping ground of Aldershot and fleet maybe, i remember it with more cars😂
Best car ever
Nice jeremy clarkson tribute there
Crikey, Clarkson has lost some weight
🤣🤣🤣
Homage to Top Gear; very nice
How tall are you? because i am thinking about buying an Audi TT but im 6,2 or 187cm.
I now drive a Toyota Paseo GT but im too tall for it.
im 185cm and i fit comfy inside my mk1, id say its fairly roomy actually, you can get the seat quite low which is nice, i had peeps over 190cm in the passenger seat and still no issue, but the rears are, well, basically unusable, thats why i took em out haha
Sold😀
I think the damn jeremy clarkson joke is overplayed , he did almost the exact same thing
got one last week... amazing car... shame someone murdered the interior in the video car...
Actually it doesn't look that bad, the boos gauges is a normal upgrade.
What's not to like? Getting spare parts, that's what. Months of searching and waiting....
Hopefully getting a BAM at the end of the month 😁 a great nod to the Top Gear episode lol
Kept this one quiet! Very good
Thank you Matty!
Total Pratt
love how you stole the style thing from top gear but didn’t make it 2 minutes long
Just a Clarkson emulator. Content would have been better if you found your own style. Like the cinematic nicely shot.
thats not even a BAM but then of course you got the r32/vr6 destroked 3.0 turbo. its a bit boxter at the front but looks more 911 from the side and back
Like it, I like it a lottttttttt. So much so I’m in the market for a V6 Buggy, watch this space 👍
Still not sure about it - my headteacher had one and he was a total knob 😂
🤣🤣
Very Clarkson esk
Did i just found a baby Clarkson?
Good video but is it me or does he trying to be Jeremy clarkson
Be yourself dude, not Clarkson otherwise good review
🤣 this guy says 1990s is retro 🤣 what would he call the late 70s when I started driving ?
Classic
Aldershot
Correct! 🤣
I prefer the peugeot rcz
You totally ripped off Jeremy Clarksons wardrobe montage for the tt review.
I think you’d find that was the joke… 😅
1 crashed
Not really a true review as this one been modded 🤔! Should have driven the stock 225 model and offered your opinion on it.
Allways 1.8 T (225). Funny, turbo magic. V6 is a good car, but not special for me.
This car is a future classic no doubt. As I have studied car design I really do understand what I'm talking shout.
Work on your audio
U stole that from clarkson.
This guys ripped off everything from top gear! Ripping of jezza! How dare you! I'd stick to just video 9r reviewing the car 😅
The car looks ugly I like the S13 better
Copying Jeremy Clarkson 🤣
I think the word you’re looking for is ‘inspired’
@@CarCultureClub hahahaha
@@CarCultureClub I think that you think too much of your inteligence. Trying to convince me that you are not copying him is just pathetic
@@slawomirczaja1 what’s been copied from him? This whole review has been written in our own way, apart from the small scene of changing clothes which is referencing Jeremy’s Audi TT review
@@CarCultureClub Everything including the way You speak for example...
I'm not saying Your reviev is bad. Actually is very good but:
it's been 'inspired' too much which makes it feel like a copy if You know what I mean
You right about the car. I totally agree with that. I'm proud owner of exact one myself and I think it's brilliant.
Conclusion is: if the person thats not English like myself can see too much similaritys to Jeremy it means that You are inspired too much. English is not my first language and it hitted me pretty much straight away...
Think about that
mmmnnnnnn, gotta come up with a new talk style , sound like someone else and old boring
