Audi TT Quattro Sport | The best version of the MK1 TT? | Future Classics S3 E3

The Audi TT was a design well ahead of its time. It’s one of those few examples where a great concept car design had very few changes to it before it was available to the public. There are a few versions of the first-gen Audi TT, but we think the sweet spot is one of its rarest examples. Many of you would assume that bigger engines are always better, but we’d argue that the model we have for you today is superior to the top-spec Golf R32 3.2-litre VR6-engine model.

The Quattro Sport may look very similar to the 3.2 Quattro, but it’s much more stripped-back when you peel back the layers. It uses the turbocharged 1.8-litre engine, but with a bit of Audi tinkering, it produces 240PS, which is only 10PS shy of the 3.2-litre engine. When you consider the massive weight advantages the Quattro Sport has, especially as it doesn’t use that heavy DSG gearbox, you can see why this was the ultimate version and swansong of the Mk1.

This spring, I bought a VR6 mk1 TT on a whim. After replacing the suspension, I've grown to absolutely love the thing. Which is a problem as I'm building a 450 wheel B5A4 Avant and space us at a premium. The TT is not a sports car (with stock motor and suspension) but it's a very unique experience to drive. I'm now a big fan!

I've got the V6 DSG, Had it about 3 years and absolutely love it. Although it is nose heavy, the low stance, short wheel base and wide track means it really grips into the corners, and the DSG and V6 just fires it out of them. It may not match a Boxster or Lotus Elise, but knowing you've saved a few £k puts just as big a grin on your face ! 😁

Found this car today and I was like do I like this or do I hate this? After some consultation I have decided that I quite like it even thoug top gear did it a bit dirty

I bought my mauritius blue qs almost 3 years ago from a friend, I took it to le mans this year and the car was still faultless. If you have one I recommend a euro trip in it as its easy and fun to drive, even on long journeys the recaros are comfortable.

I'm still dailying mine so the miles are creeping up but the car still looks and drives great.

Ya the 6sp with short shift kit is almost worth the Achilles tendonitis. What's up with the clutch pedal pressure in these?

Those then when Tec was not just garbage but a trade ™️ mark...every taste is fun & every flavour is an excitement. Lately things are just rolled out anyhow cos is more about quantity not quality.
