Another excellent video Matt! 👍 Ordered a hoodie from your website too which I couldn't be happier with in terms of quality and thickness. Top marks all around as per! 👏

Cannot believe this is 14yrs old. Still looks like brand new.

I have owned a 2012 TT RS for a year now and it always puts a smile on my face when I drive it

This man could sell snow to the eskimos

The MK 2 was the prettiest TT in my opinion especially the Black edition Amplified edition with the TTRS bits on, stunning looking

[NicholasSadlier]

I own a 2007 MK 2 with that same engine, but it's the s-tronic. Still looks fresh, goes very well and yes... tells me about road surface imperfections I previously didn't know exist lol.

let’s talk a bit about common problems, should we :
1) water in the boot. in both convertible and coupes, drain are blocking easy and you end up with plenty of water in the boot..
2) boss system is lovely, but the amplifier goes wring easy and the replacement cost around £400-£500 fitting EXcluded.
3) mobiliser unit can go wrong too. as a result you may end up with your boot opening every time you closing your passenger door or other gremlin like issues (common problem in plenty vw skoda etc)
4) if you go for the vr6 you will absolutely fall in love with the sound and the kick, but you will have to pay around £1500 every 100k for a chain replacement.
5) go for the quatro no questions asked.
6) it comes with magnetic suspension, haven’t drive it but i know it had a very expensive repair cost when will need replacement/fix (£4k-£5k)

7) in good news it looks much more expensive than what it sells in UK.
8) it feels much more expensive than what it sells in UK
9) snow is not so scary with the quattro
10) something v yes very important that a lot of people forgetting about this generation is that half of the frame is aluminium, which means much much much much harder to have rust issues. Also it helps have 50/50 weight distribution but yeah who cares about that 😂..

I own a 2012 Quattro TT roadster and I love it. It’s relatively quick, handles well, and looks great. The MK2 takes the MK1 and fixes the problems while improving most of its aspects.

Bought 2011 TDI Black Edition last year, now done 114, 000 miles, flew through MOT last month. Comfortable, quick enough, 500 miles on a tank, Bose is great (had it re-conditioned, common fault) - brilliant car 👍

Got the mk2 TTs love it! Had it four years now.Never broke down very reliable.Mines on a stage one REVO now pushing 333bhp 450nm 0-60mph 4.2 secs 😊👍

From a guy who grew up around south Manchester and now lives in the Southern Hemisphere, i love your reviews as I get a wonderful nostalgic 10 minute view of the Peak District:) oh, how I miss it. much appreciated:)

[AstroDad]

had a TDI one of these, fell asleep at the wheel on a long drive, the car saved my life.

[stevebennett]

I’ve had my 56 plate 2 litre petrol for 4 years and it’s been awesome and never let me down 👌🏽

[zaffiqbal]

Great review Matt. I owned a TT mk2 09 plate. 2.0 tfsi. I owned the car for 10 years and was my second car. Great car to drive, I only did 30k in 10 years mainly weekend drives otherwise garaged. Faults were…… rear lights had bad earths. ..Power steering rack replaced. .. Both front springs and mounts ..wiper motor broke...car doors let water in...window trim on small rear windows came away...rear parcel shelf mounts drank oil until I got updated breather fitted which made a huge difference in consumption...turbo diverter valve replaced with new version improved turbo lag...coolant thermostat at 70k.. wiper motor, rear parcel shelf supports kept breaking. Sold car at 81k fir 3700. ..would I recommend it, yes. l miss the car it was such fun to drive.

Recently bought a 2007 Audi TT love it and everything works well

I’m buying a 2009 TTS in 3 weeks and been watching all the reviews I can of them. I’m finally buying a “big boy” car and I’m so stoked. Something I can grow with and it’s a mature car. I was considering a STI but honestly, compared to a TTS, it’s a cereal box kids toy. The TT is a sophisticated coupe that’s perfect for a bachelor like myself lol. I’m so very excited to experience this car!! Thanks for the great review. Very informative and I really dig your opinions on style and performance. Cheers from America 😎

Always loved TT's but could never afford one but think I might be looking again Matt as I feel the Need for Speed.

I was a Honda guy for 15 yrs. First was a beautiful late model 2.2vtec Prelude followed by two FN2 Type Rs. However, switching to a 2011 Daytona Grey 2ltr TFSI Mk2 TT made me wish I'd bought one earlier than 2020. The build quality and acceleration are far superior than the Type Rs. It's typical German engineering at its best. Matt hits the nail on the head stating the Mk2 hasn't aged. It's understated and easy in the eye. If I had one complaint, the front seats sagg somewhat. Mines only done 50k and I'm a second owner, yet it does let the overall experience down somewhat. I've read on TT forums this is a common issue hence was surprised Matt didn't mention it on his high mileage example. All said I'd highly recommend one and Matts review, as ever, is precise, interesting and engaging.

[samuelakinwonmi]

The mk1 was a great piece of design imo. Bulbous is not the word I’d use to describe it. I feel the mk1 will be the future classic.

[orangecayman]

i got a 2008 TT 3.2 Quattro 6MT as my first car back in May, I absolutely love it.
