Audi TT Review | Why I Think You Should Buy One

- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- Today on Buckle Up, Jasper reviews his new (to him!) car - the third generation of Audi's iconic sports coupe. The 8S generation will be the final one as we know it, and is the best? Watch to find out!
With other sporty coupes such as the Porsche Cayman, Nissan 370Z, Toyota GT86/GR86, VW Scirocco, BMW 2-Series, Mercedes-Benz SLC, BMW Z4, Jaguar F-Type, how does the sensible German stack up as a daily-driver?

Thanks a lot for the detailed review. I was looking for a video like this for a while.
Hope it's been useful!
@@BuckleUpShow It did push me more towards the MK3. I am still considering keeping a bit more money in my pocket to go for the MK2 but do love the look of the MK3 way more.
Perfect review! This has been at the top of my list for a car and now I’m completely sold
Hope it's been useful then!
I'm also planning on upgrading my BMW 1 series to this one, but it's incredible the prices here in Portugal you pay no less than 26k€ for this same exact car, while in the UK you can get this for 15k, even in Germany it's around 22k. You guys really have a nice awesome used car market.
Wow, and here we were thinking the UK used car market was off the rails at the moment!
One of the better TT reviews, cheers! Receiving some inheritance soon and a mk3 TT is on the list 🥰
Sounds like a good choice! Enjoy 😁
Nice Jasper looks and sounds like a great choice. Congratulations man
Thank you! I'm really enjoying it so far 😅
Just saw your video. Great review!
I also did myself a favour and got a 2016 TT a few months ago. Am super happy and loving everything about it
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying things, as a fellow TT owner! 🫡
Excellent video and review! I got a 2016 TT in November 2023. The driving experience is unbelievable...I wasted my best years with other cars...
Glad you're enjoying it!
I love them too, i bought a new 2013 Roadster. Have had it now for 11 years, just a wonderful car. I’m turning 69 this year, still having fun with the roof down and some great music.
Nice specimen of a car Jasper. Good review, can I ask why you chose this car over your previous car? Seems quite a change. I like Audi cars but have never owned one☹️. Perhaps one day I’ll get the chance to own one. Enjoyed the review as ever 😊 - take care, Paul.
I'm very much enjoying it so far! I was missing having something sporty and fast in my life, and it turned out that if it snows where I live in not getting to work even in a Range Rover, so one of the main justifications went out of the window! 🤣 Thanks for watching 😊
I have just watched a review you did on a base Porsche Boxster a car which I have owned before buying my 2017Audi TT S line roadster four years ago. There are many things I like about the Audi but it does not handle anywhere near as good as the Boxster. Fuel economy is good, better than the Boxster
The TT will never handle as well as a mid-engined two-seater with a Porsche chassis, but as far as a vehicle built on a primarily FWD platform goes, it's not bad. The TT is much more usable than a Boxster would be in a daily sense, partly due to packaging and partly due to running costs. Both excellent cars, though - I must compliment you on your taste!
Good review, have one myself from Australia. Huge tuning potential on these engines too which just livens them up even more.
With the engine being the same EA888 as is used in the Golf R, it can offer a decent chunk of power with not too much effort.
@@BuckleUpShow Yeah mines currently at stage 2 full bolt ons. Only limiting factor at the moment is the IS20 turbo which the Golf R/ TTS get the bigger IS38. But its so rapid i dont really see the need to go to an even bigger turbo as i dont quarter mile drag it.
I've been in a TTS that had had a hybrid turbo fitted and it was absolutely SAVAGE 💨💨
@@BuckleUpShow I bet! Guy here in Melbourne who tuned mine also has one. His one is running into the 9 second 1/4 mile on stock engine with a Turbo technics v5 turbo. The torque on that is insane
@@adz5936which TT is that and what mods on it?
I love the TT MK3 angry face.
So do we!
Great review! What would be your thoughts on getting this car as a first car in Ireland?
It would be a bit of an expensive first car to buy and run. It's a great car, but due to the lower seating position it will be more difficult to position on the road than a hatchback, and you've got worse visibility due to the coupe roof too. We know that cars tend to be more expensive in Ireland too, and especially as a first car, we'd recommend something cheaper.
@@BuckleUpShow That makes sense! After doing a bit more research, I'm leaning towards the Suzuki Swift. Either way, excited to get my first car lol
Great choice! If you're looking at new cars, we've just put a video out on the new Swift this evening: ruclips.net/video/JRpi3tOBUVc/видео.htmlsi=6rUQDJjpBcS-7iwC, but if you're looking for older cars, we've also got a video on an older Swift Sport (most of which will be applicable to non-sport versions of the same age) here: ruclips.net/video/2TBAy4Wu6AQ/видео.htmlsi=zLR5AA3dBUAve1jD
@@BuckleUpShow Ah you're far too kind to attach the video links here, thank you! Your reviews are one of the best on the internet!! Keep it up 🖤
nice color that metallic blue -- so this is a "s line" but not a tts?
Thank you! I do like the colour a lot! Yes, this is the S-Line, which gives you sportier styling, stiffer suspension, nicer alloys and some fancier bits in the interior, but still only with the 230PS that the standard Quattro model of the TT produces.
I love my Audi TT 8s 2.0 tfsi Quattro. I´m verry proud😁
All I can say so far is they are excellent cars and I'm very much enjoying mine
Welcome to the club!
Good club to join, thanks Dan 😁
Love it!
So do I 😁
Young?? 😂
I’m 71 & loving my 66 plate TTS
Excellent choice - glad you're enjoying it!
What does it mean with “66 plate”?
It was registered between 1st September 2016 and 28th February 2017
@@GTRuppsala .. U.K. age registration for new vehicles.
66 plate is from September 2016 to March 2017 ..
Mine was registered in December 2016,
Love the colour of the car.
Shame Jasper keeps scratching it
@@BuckleUpShowRude!
Good review, thank you. You are a young guy though so why are you calling door mirrors wing mirrors?
Because that's what they are referred to as in the UK.
@@BuckleUpShow no they are not, look at any car spec list and you will not see them referred to as wing mirrors. They stopped being wing mirrors when they were relocated to the doors but some people have just not made the adjustment.
🚨 Pedant Alert 🚨
@@BuckleUpShow not at all, I have no issue with you referring to them as wing mirrors but at least you now are doing it out of choice which is just as it should be. Anyone who buys a TT has my respect. Good luck with the car and channel.
I disagree with the manual gearbox engagement , it felt numb and just like I was driving an A4 avant
Hi Paul, the car in this video doesn't have a Manual Gearbox as it was not possible to get the manual in the 2.0 TFSI Quattro TT. (TTS, yes) As a result there is no discussion about engagement of a manual gearbox?
Hi yeah but you mentioned it’s not as engaging as a manual gearbox. I know you could only get the manual with front wheel drive but to me the gear stick and notching was just not fitting for a sports car which I was hoping for that’s why I tried one and was hoping to save a little bit of money at the same time
tt is golf tipe R mini R8 :))
In a way, depending on the engine specified, yes!
DSG is smooth on shifts and in town?
DSG of every TT mk3 is always jerky at low speeds (usually when you are parking). Try to parallel park without it lurching on you. I dare you :D
I've never had a problem with trying to park the car at low speeds, it's a case of being incredibly gentle with your pedal inputs. A DSG will never be quite as smooth as you can make a manual, and obviously miles behind a conventional automatic gearbox.
They still look great, can’t get over how big the gear selector looks, only 8 years and now we have these silly little nipples to select
There is something reassuring about a large gearstick, though it does consume quite a bit of space in the centre console!
Why spend so much time in the back? There is a sticker on the door in the shot that tells you the max height for rear passengers.
Because it’s sold as a four seater? If Jasper, who is a tiny, tiny man, cannot fit comfortably, it’s worth pointing out.
@@BuckleUpShow not without quoting the actual restriction which is written right there on the door frame. It's about 1.4m without going to look at mine.
1.45 m, though it's more guidance, as different people have different length bodies and legs. Someone may have short legs but a long body and be less than 1.45 m, but their head would still touch the roof.
You don’t have to defend the car's shortcomings just because you own one. It’s objectively poor rear passenger space.
I think you’re pushing it saying muscular, more sculpted I’d say.
Are we talking about Jasper here or the car?
I like that Audi....but not automatic
Quattro is very handy for where I live, and in the none-sport TTs, if you wanted Quattro, you had to get the S-Tronic 2.0 TFSI as it wasn't offered with a manual.
Reedit this so that your are not showing the speed . i.e 53 in a 40 zone plod is watching🤨
If you're on about times you can see the left hand dial, that's the indication of drive mode and what gear you're in. In which case your "53" is actually "S3", in other words, the gearbox is in Sport setting and in 3rd 😅
@@BuckleUpShow old eyes 👀 🤣🤣🤣
No worries 🤣 Gave me some entertainment on a Monday morning 😂
