The Appeal
After 25 years of production, in 2023 we saw manufacturing of the TT cease, having spanned three generations, producing 650,000 cars worldwide. Pioneering in its own right, the TT encompassed characterful design with impressive handling and performance, leading to domination in the entry level sports car market. Its name inspired by the Isle of Mann TT took where NSU (Audi’s predecessor) had massive success - offering the very best engineering VW Audi had to offer. Minimalist in design language, the car still feels forward thinking and the best examples are becoming coveted, as the early generation cars move into classic status.
With smart, unmolested Mk1 TT’s hard to come by, this presents an opportunity to pounce on an aspiring future classic. This facelift example is in stunning order and is backed up with a consistent service history file. The colour combination is fabulous and presents in a time-capsule-like condition. This undeniably fun millennium-era coupe is ready for summer-time b-road bashing.

The Condition

- Front headlamps appear crystal clear - commonly cloudy on Mk1 TT’s
- The 18” BBS RS2 Split-Rim alloys were a fairly rare option - we really like the look of them on this car, which clearly had a lot of very attractive (and expensive) options added when the car was ordered new
