This is the ‘grandaddy’ of the MK 1 TTs. The mighty 3.2 litre V6, 247bhp, quattro with DSG gearbox (quicker than the manual). Immaculate, rare in ‘Brilliant Red’ only three previous owners. MOT’d to June 2015 and TAX’d to Nov 2014, it only has 62,000 miles. It also wears an appropriate ‘DSG’ registration, which is included in the sale. The standard alloys are included in the sale but upgraded 3SDM staggered alloys are available as an upgrade by negotiation but really set the car off perfectly (see photos). Easily more purer in design than the model that replaced it, it set the car industry alight when it was launched. Please don’t confuse this with the lesser ‘cooking’ models. I can only say that its ride, handling, and glorious engine note is easily on par with my 911. If you’re serious about adding the best of the early TTs to your collection then you won’t be disappointed.

The ‘Brilliant Red’ paintwork and contrasting ‘Silk Nappa’ heated leather is arguably the best colour combination and blends in beautifully with the rear light clusters.
