2004 Audi TT 3.2 (MkI)

Rorty and quick 3.2 V6 with DSG 'box that's set up and been lightly used for Sprints and Hill Climbs in the 'standard road car class' offering performance and grip with its Quattro drive-train showing only 73,000 miles

Dating from March 2004 this (Type 8N) Audi TT MkI looks a little more purposeful and aggressive than your average example and not just because it’s the powerful 3.2-litre V6 version either.

This cool coupe was been enjoyed by the last owner for the last 4+ years through the local Hill Climb and Sprint Championships in the ‘standard road car’ class proving very reliable and capable with its Quattro (Haldex all-wheel drive) drive-train, potent 3.2 litre DOHC 24 VR6 engine which develops 247bhp and 6-speed DSG transmission putting the power down in Sport mode.

Despite appearances, it is remarkably stock and remains an eminently usable road car which can double for further hill climb/sprint use or even track days.  The car wears a set of lighter 18inch multi-spoke alloy wheels with sticky tyres (although the original 7-spoke 18inch OEM wheels are included with good tyres), has various safety stickers and markers for ignition, traction control, tow and battery locations fitted as well as a tow strap and conversion to manual boot release (they are originally electronic) below the boot. It also comes with a battery isolator within the boot.

Bar that, the car, is ‘normal’ and road legal (which it must be for this classification of racing).  The car has been looked after ‘in-house’ by the last owner's company, a Welsh 4x4 specialist with the car being serviced regularly including changes to the Haldex fluid which are documented on headed paper within the file.

Showing just 73,000 miles, the car presents well, starting promptly with the gruff growl of the VR6 engine immediately apparent. The bodywork shows only minor signs of age and use with a couple of scuffs (pictured) and some small, localised lacquer peel to the front (pictured). 

The interior is business as usual with BOSE sound system, digital climate control with A/C, heated leather seats and electric windows/mirrors and on-board computer.  The pixels are starting to fade on the dash binnacle, but this is a well-known Audi issue with a range of repair kits readily available online to solve should it become a nuisance. The boot includes useful spare and carpet.

Ready to be enjoyed, the car comes with its V5C showing five former keepers, print-out of works completed during the last owner's tenure and current MOT valid until January 2023 recording just one minor advisory for a missing registration plate lamp.
