Its me again.
As you all know, i recently underwent a process with the M6, and that has been subsequently traded-in, although i looked to remain int he BMW stable,. which i would of liked to have done, i searched for either an M235i or a 435i/420d, and although i came across a few, some were private sellers, and some were dealers not prepared to give me a good enough deal to let it go for that much of a loss.
I came across this 2017 Audi TT Coupe (8S chassis), im not too familiar with the options and line ups etc, and although this has a kit on, im not sure if its aftermarket, or part of the S-Line package.
I did the deal, and finalised everything pretty quickly, and took delivery. The car has 148 000km on the clock, very neat interior an exterior, apart from a few slight niggles, but nothing alarming.
So here she is:
The TT is extremely basic, with the only options on the car being the Alcantara sport seat option, the Bang & Olufsen, and i believe the navigation options ticked.
Its missing Parking sensors and a reverse camera which i believe is the Audi APS+ package.
Overall, the car drives very well, with exceptionally light steering, almost go kart like. Its a nice quaint and comfortable cabin to be in, and it covers the necessary bases just fine for what i need.
One thing i am definitely removing is the previous owners personal touch of..... :
Im just not into that way of life, haha.
The EA888 engine is pretty nippy, and it being the Gen3 variant, has had a lot of niggles ironed out, and delivers a very smooth drive, as does the S Tronic 6 speed gearbox, its not DCT quick, but does the job.
The car is 100% stock performance wise, still has the OEM exhaust and OEM Downpipe as well as OEM intake.
there are a host of modification options available for the car/engine, but, i am unsure if i am going down that road with this car. i may get the OBDEleven dongle and get some OEM+ coding done to personalise it, as well as get a hold of OEM reverse Camera and parking sensors retrofitted for the ease of life aspect.
Other than that, the car is... fine... lol. a few things i need to clean up, but what use is buying a perfect car right? where is the fun in that (im sure i said that about the M6 too at one point didnt i?)
Anyways, this is a thread to keep up with this particular journey, it will be a lot lighter in content i think as opposed to my other threads, but lets see how it goes, more aesthetically orientated than performance orientated.
Will get some more exterior and interior pics loaded in due course, and another platform to learn an figure out keeps me busy too i guess.
