First produced by Audi in 1998 and still produced in as Mk3 version today, the TT needs little introduction.
Concepted as a front engined front wheel drive or 4-wheel drive, 2+2 coupe or 2 seat roadster, this little sports car has been extremely popular throughout its production.
Based on Volkswagen Audi group A platform, it shares many components with the Audi A3 and Volkswagen golf.
The History
First registered in March 2002 by supplying dealer Grimsby Audi, this TT appears to have had 1 lady owner for most of its life & so now only 2 owners from new including the vendor.
The Paperwork
There is a current Mot certificate, valid until September 2023. There’s also an owner’s manual, service book, sound system handbook & TT brochure presented in an Audi folder.
The last service entry is in August 2017 at 70,815 miles so this vehicle has seen very little use over the last 4 years.
The Interior
Finished in blue leather, the inside of this TT is in superb condition with the passenger seat showing little signs of use & the drivers seat showing not much more as can be seen in the photos.
Rears are almost unused with door cards and carpets both in excellent condition. The boot lid does have a sagging lining, but I’m sure this could be easily rectified.
The Exterior
Finished in Black, this early TT looks stunning. There are a number of very small stone chips to the lower part of the car, mostly to the front and just behind the front wheels, but to be expected, especially on a black car which tend to show through. There’s also a slight scuff to the driver’s side front corner bumper and a light scratch on the boot lid.
All of these marks are small and wouldn’t take much to rectify should the new owner see fit. Wheels are all in excellent condition with no signs of scuffing.
The Mechanics
Said by the vendor to drive well, and it certainly appeared to start and change up and down again through the gears when being moved & positioned for photos.
Mechanically quiet and with the bonnet up, everything looks exceptionally tidy and all in place. At the time of the photoshoot, an engine management warning light was on, but this apparently was indicating a coolant sensor failure. The vendor says he will have this changed before sale.
The Appeal
An exceptionally tidy Mk1 Audi TT which will appeal to the enthusiast. It’s the right model with the correct specification and it’s an almost one owner car from new, there can’t be many around this good.
One to drive and enjoy summer or winter, it’ll be a lot of fun for not a lot of money.

About Max Bids
The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.
Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.
Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.
Auto-bidding increments
If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Automatically outbid immediately
When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.
You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.
Matching max bids
When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.
Pre-authorisation
We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.
What are pre-bids?
A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.
Problem with your bid
Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
