Gave the car a clean over the weekend...

Cyrus

Ive had this TT for nearly 10 months now, i really only bought it to tide me over, and it has surprised me in how much i like it, reasonably quick, very nicely put together and handles very well,

obviously coming from an e46 m3 and then a 3.0si z4 coupe its a different kettle of fish and i will be letting it go over the next few months to get something a little more powerful,

Anyway ive taken care of it, came up well after the wash (had been waxed when i washed it previously so didnt wax this time)

You missed a bit on the drivers carpet.

I love that version of the TT. Smashing colour. Would love one myself.

Cyrus

:Praging when i saw that TBH

Nice car, i need to book ya for a number 3 back and sides, just trim the top.

Piriz

+1 on the colour,
you'd make a great car valeter however you probably couldn't afford a car like that as one..its pristine clean tho..lovely model, my mate bought a 02 TT 1.8 recently, i drove it last night, great power but feck all room in them really..even in the driver seat i was thinking it was cramped and im not exactly 6 foot.

Brilliant

(No offence Cyrus, I like the TT, but that joke is funny)

Screw the car, I love your garage! Told herself when we emigrate to Poland and get a house there, it's gotta be a twin car garage at least.

knowing that you own an avensis and get a semi over old carina e's ill let you take your pop :D

Don't listen to the haters . It's a cracking looking car and looks as good as when you first posted it here. At least you won't have to worry about people pukeing in the back seats :pac:.

Show off!

Really love the TT.

It will be my next car but insurance won't cover me at the moment which is probably a good thing cos gonna try save up a few bob and splash out on one next year come renewal time. Never have anybody in back of my car anyway so don't care about space.

nice car Cyrus. Great clean. You kept it so well. Is there even a scratch on that car?

EPM

Love the colour and wheels combo.

Looks mint:D

Nice car as usual Cyrus! I'm not mad on the colour though I think it's a bit soft for the aggressive looks of the car. My uncle picked one up too across the water and got a lovely spec on his, I think the colour and wheels really suit it. (Without meaning to hijack your thread)

copacetic

prefer that colour and especially the wheels alright.

It's bizarre really. I think the TT crosses the uncanny valley from "class" into "too pretty".

No. Four doors = Mans car. Two doors = Pornographers/Footballers/Hairdressers/Metrosexuals car.

Dead serious, ya know everything you read is true.


Oh FFS, it was a sweeping generalisation combined with my own personal views and a dash of stereotyping.

What do you have your eye on after the TT?

Nice choices

I drive a 986 Boxster and will be selling it on soon. I had 2 E46 Coupes before the Boxster and found that they give so much trouble with the engine.... the Boxster is some car, not a problem with it since I bought it... and its cheaper to run than the 320ci.. I want to buy a E46 M3 next but Im afraid about anything going wrong with it... Did you have any dramas with yours?

my e46 m3 never gave me a moments trouble, however i did really look after it, they are an awesome awesome car tho, id still have another

Having driven both the above Porsches I can say that they are cracking cars, if you can stretch to a Cayman S you wont need another sports car for a while. Just make sure to get it in black with the black interior and of course with a manual gearbox.

I am not a big fan of the e46 M3`s I have heard all sorts of horror stories about the engines being a little soft but that could be all unfounded rumours.

yeah the boxster and the cayman are super cars, we'll see whats about when i move on,

i know a lot of people with m3s and have never heard any horror stories, most likely issues are to do with the smg gear box which can be pricey to have fixed

rabbitinlights

Cayman S would be my choice, Black with a nice dark tan interior.......

Loads of potential for tweeks and tuning as well.

S.

Cyrus,

why dont you sell that and buy a s2000.......

then you will have a grin on your face.:)

He's gone down far enough. Time to get up again. I'll vote Cayman S too

Cyrus

cant wait to start looking again :cool:

mickdw

I just coming aound to the idea that the cayman S is unbelieveable value. Its a proper porsche & can be had with tiny mileage in as new condition for high thirty thousands.

Ive been told that your average driver would possibly lap a circuit quicker in the cayman s than similar powered 911.
