WHAT were Audi thinking when they discontinued the TT model? The quintessential millennial sports car was discontinued in 2023 after 25 years of production. Model: Audi TT The Audi TT is a rare example of a concert car becoming a reality and what a storm it made when it hit showrooms in 1998. OK, so early models were plagued with issues, but once ironed out, the Audi TT was, and remains, a stylish, sporty and seriously cool car. It’s fantastic to drive, reliable and looks great. Available as both a coupe and a roadster, the convertibles are the ultimate summer cruiser. Oh, and it’s a bit of a bargain too. Used Audi TT Review How can you not love the Audi TT? It’s an iconic design that has stood the test of time. The Audi TT has evolved over time, becoming bigger and more aggressive-looking. Taste is a personal thing, but we’re big fans of the MK2. They retain a similar shape to the Mk1, but are a little longer. The standard 2.0-litre TFSI (Fuel Stratified Injection) engine was powerful enough for this lightweight vehicle. Model: Audi TT The original TT was based on the trusted and loved Golf Mk4 platform. In fact, all TTs are built on VW’s standard chassis, which makes them solid, robust and reliable. In 2014, Audi launched the MK3 TT, with a full facelift that lasted until 2023, when the final car rolled off the production line. These are more refined, bigger and bolder TTs. What does it drive like? You don’t climb into an Audi TT, you sort of slide into it. It’s low to the ground, which makes it feel fast to drive. The handling is great, fuel economy average, and it looks amazing. You find yourself smiling while you drive, and that’s what a car like this is meant to do. Water leaks are a common problem with the TT and there have been issues with the interior trim. Like all used cars, look for one with low mileage and a full service history. How much is a used Audi TT You can probably pick up a used Audi TT for a couple of grand if you buy privately. But it’s a big risk, with older cars potentially plagued with problems. In our view, it’s much better to buy from a dealer. On Sun Motors, you can find Audi TTs starting from around £10,000. Stock at dealers can – and does – change quickly, so keep searching if you’re seeking a bargain. Model: Audi TT At the top end, a nearly new, top-of-the-range, TT will set you back around £50,000. If you’re buying an Audi TT, spend some time learning about the different models. There are a lot and it can be confusing when comparing one car to another. Is the Audi TT a good used car? Pros of buying a used Audi TT Looks amazing, drives well and convertibles are super coolBuilt on solid VW chassis which should last a long timeOriginal Audi TTs are classics, which means a good-condition older model could be a good investmentLots of used models on the market means prices are competitiveNo room for the kids Cons of buying a used Audi TT Not much boot space and rear seats are laughableLow driving position may not appealIt’s a sportscar, so it could have been driven hard. Depreciation on nearly new cars can be relatively highNo room for the kids What is the mileage on an Audi TT? Older Audi TTs are approaching and may even have clocked over 100,000 miles. In our view, it’s best to avoid those. You can find nearly new TTs with a handful of miles (like the one featured below) or those with many, many more. Modern cars shouldn’t fail and a full service history and repair record is often more important than mileage. Used Audi TT Cars: Sun Motors best offers Low mileage monster Model: Audi TT This mean-looking Audi TT RS TFSI Quattro Sport Ed has just 4,460 miles on the clock, making it the nearliest of nearly new cars. It’s a desirable Quattro model, so it’s packing a super powerful, 2.5l supercharged engine knocking out 394bhp. That’s going to do 0-60 in less than 4 seconds. Ouch. Inside, you’ll get everything that Audi can chuck at the car. It’s not cheap at £50,099, but it’s a low-mileage monster. Affordable classic Model: Audi TT This old-style Audi TT is available at £320 a month, making it the most affordable Audi TT on the market (if you’re buying from a trusted dealer, etc.). The Audi has done less than 5,000 miles per year and has been well-maintained, with strong bodywork. It’s a Sport model, so expect great performance from this super car. Ultra cool convertible Model: Audi TT Another Quattro model? Yes, but this time it’s a convertible. Imagine driving this beast of a car with the top down, wind in your hair and a superior 2-litre engine providing 305 bhp. It’s another low-mileage, reasonably priced 2015 model (our choice). Yours for £476 a month. That’s not bad at all. Where to buy a used Audi TT Sun Motors provides you with access to the UK’s best selection of used Audi TTs. Buy privately and you can pick up a cheaper car, but Audi TTs can be plagued with problems. Ask yourself: Do you really want the hassle? We always recommend buying from a dealer (like those featured on Sun Motors) who will check every car before they sell it. Most come with warranties, too, giving you thousands of miles of stress-free driving. When you buy from a dealer, you can have confidence in your car. It also ensures you’ll probably get a better price if you come to sell it in the future.
