I remember watching this video at the start of 2015 when I was still in school. Fast forward to the end of 2020 and I'm about to buy my own Audi TTS. Completely forgot about this review but I'm so glad I stumbled upon it again. Can't believe this was your first review, and so glad I got to meet you during #DriveTheWorld in Cape Town. Cheers Sam!
First review, quite the difference with todays content 😃 However, watching it years ago made me put the TT on my ‘wish list’. Last Friday, we bought a TT roadster 👍
+Seen Through Glass I very much prefer your reviews and your style of presentation over SOL and Shmee150! You seem like a actual entertainer and a realistic petrol-head as oppose to the others I mentioned who even to me (and i come from a very wealthy family) seem unrealistic with how they present their life and their knowledge of cars. I see that there is this slight sense of privilege in modern exotic car culture to NOT know every thing about your car and have the mentality of "well I can afford it so i do not car how it works" and even in your recent videos you do not pride yourself of your ignorance and seem to be a very good person to know and extremely funny to watch!!! Thank you for being a breath of fresh air in the young perspective exotic car scene!
personality i give 10/10!!! awesome to listen to AND enjoy. i have been looking at tts's for a while now.. your review makes me want one even more so! thanks for the video and info.
One of the best if not best reviews we’ve seen because you tell it from a users point of view and that’s what we have been looking for 👍 you covered all the right stuff.
Do you miss this car ever? I drive an X5M and have a 997 but am weirdly drawn to trying to buy one of these and then doing a stage 2 chip to take it on a charity tour around Europe that I’m organising! Seems a LOT of car for what they’re going for now!
Very nice review thank you. I 100% agree with you, this car is so niiiceee in every conditions. But I have "only" the 160hp stronic version ahaha. Hope to see more from you!
I own the 2011 Audi TT. Got a guy a few states away coming to try to ram a Nissan GTR engine inside of it. I'll let you know how that goes. Going for ultimate sleeper.
French here but had no problem understanding your review, was great thank you ! No prob if your car is dirty, as you said in a comment it looks more 'authentic', more real, and shows the way the car will really look like + there are already lots of videos with the car really clean. Had fun watching your vid ;-) ! Getting mine in a few days, can't wait ! :)
The only people who have ever associated the TT with hairdressers are one or two writers in the media - nobody else has ever referred to the TT as a hairdresser's car (save for people repeating the original hairdresser's reference). My hairdresser drives a Ford Fiesta.
I m looking forward for this car but the only thing that holds me from buying one are these back seats, are they so small?I m 5’7 (1.71 m) and my friends are taller but not by much
absolutely love your videos and your tts, theres something about it that I cant put my finger on. Its the same with all the S models, would pick them over the RS ones anyday. Any chance of a new car in 2015 at all or...?
S Miller Thanks, really glad you like the videos and the car! Lots of new things to come for STG in 2015...a new car might just be one of those things ;)
Just came across this video now as thinking off getting a TT. Great video too. Also, where were the country roads you were driving? They looked great fun!
So I'm thinking I need to get one of these- I was thinking I'd get a manual though because of all the scare stories I've read about the S-Tronic failing. Have you had any problems with yours? And that MPG figure...any idea what it is when you're not driving in the city? And a slightly more random question. Do you reckon it's possible to fit a mountain bike in the back if the wheels are off?
staggabob Hey! They are absolutely awesome cars and I have never had a problem with the S-Tronic...not even a hiccup. I'm surprised to hear youve read so many bad things about it. You have to remember I do a lot of city driving with lots of short bursts of acceleration so my MPG figure is quite unrealisitc. When i first go the car, I would do 24/25 in city and about 32/34 on the motorway. Hope that helps In terms of a mountain bike, ha, im not sure..but i have fit some surprisingly big things in the back when you put the seats down..including a table from IKEA!
Seen Through Glass Thanks for the quick reply! The mechatronic unit in the S-Tronic has been a widely reported problem with a £2500 repair bill so although I really really want the paddle shift the sensible part of my brain says it's too much of a risk on a 2nd hand car. And those fuel figures are a little worrying since my Z4 averages 36-8 on the motorway and the TTS is supposed to be more economical but maybe that's your driving :) But I've got my heart set on a TT at some point, hopefully in the near future, so it's definitely useful to get feedback from an owner, cheers!
mike191817 It's a cracking car man. Only thing I miss from my previous car (Audi A4) is the infotainment screen. Other than that it's met or exceeded all expectations!
You actually owned a car you knew shit about. The TTS compared to the standard TT has uprated pistons, rods, cylinder head, mag ride, sits lower, bigger turbo, bigger brakes, thicker sway bars, the silver mirror caps, rear bumper diffuser, quad exhaust pipes and last but not least different gearing. The little bits you pointed at the front bumper was just a marketing thing you got ripped of from the dealer that sold it to you. Couple of years later, today you can admit you bought it just for the looks.
Trivia: Thanks for giving way to the cyclists and allowing them a comfortable and safe space. I'm finding this many years after the fact. Considering one of these for a toy around Hong Kong for a few years.
Great looking machine! It's so strange seeing a car without the driving position on the left side lol... I'm sure it looks odd to people who aren't used to seeing it on the left side as well. Anyway, thanks so much for the video! I definitely gave it a like.
Nice review on the passion wagon!! shame its not a TT RS.That's what I am going for. No! No! Not a hair dresser's car.Never heard of a hairdresser driving a 40 grand car before :)
***** Right, "for my daughter" ;) My father-in-law bought a 2013 Mustang Shelby Cobra GT500 "for his wife." As far as reliability, though not a TTS, my 2010 S5 has been absolutely perfect thus far with about 90,000 miles on the clock.
Why do you have so many accents and cartoonish voices to the end of every little sentence? sounds like watching a mash up of Family guy and simpsons. I think you drive how id like to be driven but id through you out after 5 mins of your voice!
@@experiment54 not too bad. Wish i had the Quattro and a manual transmission but the pirelli tires i had gripped well. (No longer have the car). I going for a Honda civic si sedan w/ manual transmission. The TT will forever be the car I’d want to get back in the future

Did you get it and do you like it?

How do you like it and what's the average maintenance cost?
IT'S ABSOLUTELY A W E S O M E !!!!
Took delivery last week.... Love my Audi TT S Coupe!
Dude you are funny. good review. London lads keeping it real
Leon Henry Thanks mate

Had my Audi TTs S Tronic for four months now.Love the car.enjoy it every time I get in it 😊

I've had two TTS so far....2011 and 2015 Competition Pkg....love them both. 0-60 mph in US is stated at 4.9 sec. Got a deposit on new TTRS now.
Todd Register, lucky you! ;)
This is hilarious having been watching your more recent videos over the past few months😂😂
Been subscribed to your channel for years and I’ve been considering one of these lately so i come across this great gem!

I still listen to CD's.. They're decent. Why not? Plus they weren't around in 1982
I must say, I do like the Alan Catara seats. I have the full leather sadly, and it's so cold in winter
Very nice review thank you. I 100% agree with you, this car is so niiiceee in every conditions. But I have "only" the 160hp stronic version ahaha.
Hope to see more from you!
Alexandre Baghai Cheers mate! Appreciate it. Make sure you check out all my other vids ;) Review of my new Alfa 4C coming soon
It's really fun to watch the video's back and see how much has changed and how much hasn't (music) lol
Got my Smee mobile me old mucker.TTS with Meistershaft sports exhaust. Love it :)
this is the car more beautiful and perfect in all the World 😍
Talks about a blast from the past watching this video…
With your style and video you can make lovely every car...You are amazing!
Seen Through Glass > Rory Reid, love watching these throwback vids.
I own the 2011 Audi TT. Got a guy a few states away coming to try to ram a Nissan GTR engine inside of it. I'll let you know how that goes.
Going for ultimate sleeper.
Just bought my TTS off the back of your review, absolutely spot on! Have now subscribed to your channel too. Great videos
How is it? Do you still have it?
What's the difference between Audi TTS and Audi TT S-Line? Is TTS = TT S-Line?
@@samuellee8623 No, they are different. The Audi TT S-Line is a trim of the standard Audi TT, whereas the Audi TTS is the next model up.
Seen Through Glass > Top Gear^^
Michael Smith Haha cheers mate!

Melvin KEATON Awesome, glad you enjoyed it and even more exciting your car is arrving in a few days! They are awesome and you will have a great time!
if he knew that moment that a few years later he'll have a mclaren :'D
pphilmunich 95 and a few months after that a Ferrari & a Porsche
Still a knob tho
Great review!! Love your personality dude keep it up!
seen this car go 0-62 mp/h in 4.9 it was 272 hp 2.0 turbo. how come your order 5.4 ? or did u read it from the manuall?
“It’s give you the confidence to go gas and throw it around, even in these conditions and it’s so fun”... continues to go 40 mph everywhere
You can spin, slide etc in those conditions in the uk at 40mph in the wrong car
For some reason I thought your car was purple from your other videos, does look good in black
Shagar Miah Ha probably something the camera is picking up...maybe I should wrap it purple!
The only people who have ever associated the TT with hairdressers are one or two writers in the media - nobody else has ever referred to the TT as a hairdresser's car (save for people repeating the original hairdresser's reference). My hairdresser drives a Ford Fiesta.
Loved it! Hilarious ;) great review! Picking up my TTS in black - black n white leather this Friday!! Ur video has got me V excited buddy :)
Good review Sam! What would you go for out of Porsche Boxter S (986), Audi TT 3.2 DSG (mk2) or BMW Z4 3.0?
Gary Lefteri Audi personally
Thanks for the reply mate. Carry on the good work on the vlogs! :-)
Want to get a new daily driver; what's your thoughts and comments on this 2005 3.2 VR6 Audi TT Quattro or the VW Golf Mk4 R32?
Great to watch and listen to. Very entertaining. Btw did the 2010 audi tts not come with LED's?
I m looking forward for this car but the only thing that holds me from buying one are these back seats, are they so small?I m 5’7 (1.71 m) and my friends are taller but not by much
Love the review mate cheers. A question-- expensive maintenance? Thinking of getting one.
Kemble, Badminton Park and Didmarton! Weird seeing the area you live from someone else's perspective, Good film
man, you are funny. But I can tell you really love your TTS. Nice review and we feel it.
absolutely love your videos and your tts, theres something about it that I cant put my finger on. Its the same with all the S models, would pick them over the RS ones anyday. Any chance of a new car in 2015 at all or...?

It's not the real quattro though, how did that work in snow? I'm interested because I'm getting one of these!

Great Review!!!

This is a great video. The ones you are doing in these days (nov-dec 2015) are not as good.
Can you connect it with your iphone? Like mp3 phone calling and stuff?
Your videos have definately improved since this one. Still good though!
ALAKAZAM !!!! Omg i can't stop laughing !!! XD
adit rafianto You have to admit, 'alcantara' is a hard word to say... lol
The dial swoosh doesnt happen on all audi models ;) I had to modify the s6 to get it ;)
ThatGuyNamedScott. C Oh no! Another fact I have got wrong! haha. Thanks though and glad your S6 now swooshes :P
Fastest reply in history ;)
ThatGuyNamedScott. C Probably need to get better at pretending I have a life ;)
Great review, love the comical side - makes an easy watch - really wanted a TTS but 15mpg ooosh that's harsh lol
***** Cheers buddy! And dont start on the 15mpg..it gives me a headache lol
+Seen Through Glass your F Type must be a kick in the goolies too
love the video mate haha
I'm a barber and looking in to getting this car haha !
Is the exhuast or engine modified?
3 years later .. owns a rarri and a cayman !!! go get em Sam !!! ;)
hows the reliability; thinking about getting a tts for my daughter.
***** Never had an issue with the TTS. It was incredibly reliable and relatively cheap to run
Cook thanks!
***** Right, "for my daughter" ;)
My father-in-law bought a 2013 Mustang Shelby Cobra GT500 "for his wife."
As far as reliability, though not a TTS, my 2010 S5 has been absolutely perfect thus far with about 90,000 miles on the clock.
Got her bmw 135i instead. Have a s2 exige s for myself
