Not when you look at how much a haircut costs these days outside a barber's!

That is a cracking deal for the 2.0T FSI Sport, have some heat. Keep looking and posting so I don't have to :smirk:

Oh I'm sorry for being boring, there was me, just for a moment, thinking that this was a deals site about saving money.

So a way to save £2500 without having to pay pcp every month is boring? My god, I think you need to find a different site to troll.

I mean, heaven forbid that people should reply to threads with relevant info and comments on a deal.

I've had a licence for numerous years chap. Come back when you decide not to bore us.

Great thing with a convertible is that you don't have to drive it fast to enjoy getting from A to B. On a nice day even driving it in traffic is nice as long as you are moving at 30+.... mx5 owner

Oh christ no i wouldnt dream of turning it off!

Why would anyone want a Roadster? UK weather and no additional boot space by dropping the rear seats. Perhaps that's why they are on offer.

Sounds like you need the ESP, I wouldn't switch it off ever, unless you like trees in your bonnet.

Yes

Oh - sorry - if that's the case ignore little old me...

Is your wife a Brazilian ?........:wink:

Utter Lunacy. My TTS is producing 350bhp & 400ftlbs & frankly im wishing it made LESS. Touch the gas on a corner/damp road & traction control system kicks in. Straight line yes lots of fun, but requires a LOT of attention to drive. Before the map it was very much point and shoot as it were. Now it's mental. And LOUD.

Yes but it's a Golf. We're talking about a Golf, which lots of people in the U.K can afford, versus a car not very many can. I'm not suggesting anyone who could afford a brand new Porsche 911 S would go no, I'm off down the VW dealership to buy a hatchback. I was just pointing out a blue collar hero with only the very very lightest of tweaking can give a bloody nose to a thoroughbred sportscar costing nearly 3 times as much. That's brilliant, everyone loves the underdog. A mapped Golf R shocks the hell out of a lot of very expensive cars away from lights! Especially when it's wet. The Golf can also do those times on a rainy day, even that Porsche can't and they have huge traction because rear engine.


Yeah, love the new RS. Looks like a fabulous machine for the money again, a real driver's car with most likely killer residual values if the previous Focus RS is anything to go by.

Is the cheapest £25,835 ie 23,355 + £2,500 if so please amend base price

Why not buy the new Ford rs; better than both the cars you mention and fast enough as well..

Which sounds ok, except as you rightly said you cannot really do that sort of stuff on normal roads. So then a track, where the CS is inherently better at handling, putting down the power and coping with it all reliably. I suppose it depends on what fascinates you. Pub talk fodder based on a souped up R or a properly designed sports coupe. I have driven the standard R and it wasnt for me. The ride is a bit too brittle, felt quite sterile and safe. The last gen CS on the other hand was a fantastic experience at a completely different level. Even compared to a M4, the CS is in a different league.

But I see your point even if still doesnt make me want to rush out and buy a Golf R.

So 28Mm, or roughly 17,000 miles. You get about a bit then ;-)

It's not that much about weight. The Golf R has superior traction so it is actually faster in the initial acceleration to 60mph, at which point the 911 S starts to catch it as the speeds rise so they hit 100mph at roughly the same moment- well beyond the national speed limit. The Porsche will eventually come past, but you'll both be doing way over 100mph at this point!

It's also not about whether you prefer a £30k Golf R or an £85k 2016 Porsche. It was just about how a £30k Golf with a cheap remap can go toe to toe with an £85k 2016 Porsche in a drag to jail baiting speeds. Which is fantastic any which way you flip it.

I have been burnt by that approach before. When the repair bills come in, the tuners dont really know you anymore and it is up to you prove the fault and then a lengthy battle to get your money back. Been there, got the t...... No thank you!

The 911 CS is 420bhp vs the R at 375 (stage 1) or 400 (stage 2). Weights seem to be broadly similar. Not sure the R (stage 1) will really keep up. Even if it did, I would have the CS anyday. After our disastrous Audi experience, I don't think we would buy one ever again.

Stage 3 would really be pushing it, and I would be hesitant on the standard gearbox although they are supposed to be strong. Stage 1 however I wouldn't think twice about it, nice gains but not outrageous.

Stage 1 alone is 911 Carrera S acceleration, at least up to 100mph. That is an £85k car new.

Stage 3 is 7.9s to 100mph? That's insane. XJ220, F40, Lambo LP640, Lexus LFA levels lol

I expect they know what they're doing.

bought 50 for eBay

Wonder how long the transmission will last with a stage 3? It's fine tuning the nuts off the car, but I can imagine expensive bills within the warranty period and even more expensive bills outside it. On the other hand the Porsche will be designed to cope with the power output and its owner's cackles as your souped up R explodes in a cloud of fumes will be quite distressing. As it is the Haldex is quite fussy with needing all 4 tyres to be within a certain percentage of the others tread depth etc. I for one wouldn't want to tune such a fussy car like the R.

To be fair those figures are stage 3, which requires a few parts and costs a few grand. The stage 1 remap by itself (only £600) on a DSG equipped R still does like 3.8s to 60mph and ~9.0s to 100mph. Which is the kind of numbers you'll see from a new 911 S, more than twice the price of the Golf lol :confused:

Get a DTUK box. I have one in the garage waiting to go on once I have done a thousand or so miles on my R. People have had them on the rollers at 360bhp and measured without the box at 298bhp.

I've already enquired with Revo about getting a TTS remap, not available yet though. Apparently it's not the exact same engine software set up as the Golf R, so the same remap wouldn't apply.

I ordered the TTS with lots of options through Drivethedeal a couple of weeks. £8.5k off list price was a very good deal IMHO.

I think this is the thread you are after:
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/lego-city-great-vehicles-pickup-tow-truck-12-00-prime-15-99-non-prime-amazon-2407163

Come back here when you are old enough to drive.

Ah I was waffling on there above, sod the Audi TT, I've just seen the BMW 2 series M235i rocket ship. That's the one I need to get a good deal on.

Ah ****, I just bought my A3. This would have been nice!

Ah ****, I just bought my A3. This would have been nice!

No reason not to have the pcp on this deal. I had similar on my Golf R I got last week and called vw finance the next day and payed it off. Just phone them up in first 14 days of agreement and ask to terminate the finance and still get your £2500 off.

Hot deal. May send this to the Mrs.

LOL at the list prices though, £42,000 for a 2.0 diesel TT, really? Someone's gonna have to cut a lot of hair to afford that.

Buy or lease what's the verdict with the TT? I was going to get the 2nd gen TT 3 years ago, but instead got a Golf, was looking at used ones around £15K. The Golf has done 35K miles worth and is about £6k, could sell and get a lease. I'm mid 40's with no kids or wife so can lease what I want within reason. I'll have to check lease deals. 3 year lease is £13K, hmm puts me off, needs to be nearer £10K think I'm dreaming that I could find a longer lease term for nearer £10K

​thats not necessarily modest

Let's hope so! That feels so far away

Diesel. Roadster.

Ah yes, the wind in your hair and that beautiful diesel clatter...

hmm Mk1 for sure. I'm fairly sure if the Mk2 or 3 was the first TT not many people would have thought the same

Is someone just watching this same website and posting their quarter end deals every 5 minutes..... ?

zzzz at the comments who cares what kind of car people drive

"hairdresser" comments generally made by middle age men who idolise Jeremy Clarkson :smile:

You don't see many around...

I'd rather get mine cut inside.

They often give a very conservative delivery date. It's highly likely it'll come before the middle of May.

Exactly. Ooh! I've just ordered a 2.0 S-Tronic Sport Coupe. Mines not supposed to be delivered until the middle of May :disappointed: At least we will be excited when it comes around to picking it up!!

Ordered 1 for the wife, 10th anniversary

One of those businesses that are cash rich .....How many people do you see asking for a receipt at the Barbers....:wink:

Great car. Love my TTS. Admittedly not soft top & a few choice engine upgrades but a wonderful car to drive. Ride is rather firm for the road. Excellent deal on the 'new' model!

​Yep it's £7-8 round these parts! must be one of those southerners....

[img][/img]

Nice deal bought two, one for me and the other for a friend.

Bet you're excited! This new TT is lovely.

I am quoting from the deal link....

AUDI TT DIESEL ROADSTER 2.0 TDI ULTRA S LINE 2DR

Brand new, unregistered and available for quick delivery. Available in Metallic- Mythos Black with Black Sports Seats in black leather / alcantara

This stock vehicle also benefits from the following factory options 19”x9J 5-spoke Blade alloys wheels, Auto-dim RVM+light/rain sensor, Audi Matrix LED headlights Interior lighting pack, Traffic sign recognition, Hold assist, Comfort and sound pack,Tech pack with Audi Connect, Heated front seats, Door mirror-Elec/fold/heat, Wind blocker, Parking system plus, Cruise control and Audi phone box........

List price £42,500

Totally agree. Audi were doing £5000 off list price 3 weeks ago. £2500 for taking 6.8% PCP and £2500 from dealer. So £22150 for Sport 1.8TFSI.

Salesman was not sure how long the offer would last (supposedly end of March but restrictions were likely as it approached).

Went it with wife to see just how expensive TTs were. Ended up buying a 1.8 TFSI Sport - didn't want to exceed our ability with anything more powerful. :neutral_face: PCP option allows you to buy outright to avoid interest if you have the cash.

Now waiting 8-10 weeks for delivery :disappointed:

When I feel rich I pay max £10 for my haircut, and I am sure they do not drive anything at all, I live in Essex.

Modest £15 for a haircut, with talk like that you will be banned from here soon :disappointed:

£27k aint bad for the 2.0T roadster sport with a bit of spec, but it's not like you wouldn't get roughly that from many other brokers. It's a convertible Audi TT. As long as you know the ahem 'image' you are getting with it.

our 2.0 diesel ultra was reduced to 23K (even though it's a PCP).

22625 + 2500 = £25125, or + interest, do your maths.

cheers op, bought

cheapest is AUDI TT COUPE 1.8T FSI Sport 2dr £21,115 posted by me 2 months ago ,really good deal,hot
