Audi TT 1.8T 225 Quattro - 1999
Loved or hated, the first-generation TT leaves no one indifferent but remains undeniably an icon for the brand with the rings and, in our view, a true classic in the making. This example, sold without reserve, is the perfect opportunity to form your own opinion on this coupé that stirs up so much passion.
Description
Originally from Switzerland, this Audi TT was fully mechanically serviced in December 2017 by the current owner, a professional mechanic who has owned it for 14 years. It is a second-hand car. The car currently shows 248,000 km, mileage that the seller considers accurate and consistent with the overall condition of the car.

Externally, this German coupe retains its original paint except for the left front wing, which was repainted very recently to correct a deep scratch. The paint presents well considering its age, but shows various signs of use and age in multiple places (visible in the photos). The front bumper shows scuff marks and the front grille has a small crack under the emblem. The rear trunk lid shows some traces of corrosion that have caused paint blisters. The body panel gaps are very good and the seals and exterior plastics are in good condition.

Opening the door reveals a blue leather interior with no tears or holes, but showing signs of use such as creases and discoloration in rubbed areas. The door panels and dashboard are in good condition, showing only light signs of wear. The three-spoke steering wheel has no tears but is very worn. The instrument cluster is said to work normally, as do all the equipment, including the optional heated seats. The radio is the original unit with 6-CD changer and Bose audio.

The 1.8l turbo 4-cylinder is original and produced 225 hp when it left the factory. The owner states that the car has been properly maintained throughout its life. All fluids and filters are less than 6 months old (including gearbox and differential), as are the spark plugs. The timing belt was done at 180,000 km. The airflow meter, lambda sensors, ignition coils, and water temperature sensors have been replaced. The turbo hoses have been completely replaced with their Forge equivalent. A custom-made stainless steel turbo downpipe by the renowned Belgian tuner BFR Exhaust has been installed. Also among the modifications, the car is fitted with a Miltek exhaust system (midsection and muffler, with the original system also supplied). The engine runs perfectly, with a stable idle and strong revving. The 6-speed manual gearbox works normally and engages properly in all gears.

The car is equipped with its original wheels in average cosmetic condition, but not warped. The 4 Continental winter tires currently fitted have less than 1000 km. The seller states that the car behaves well and that no defect or abnormal noise is to be reported. The car brakes properly and the pads are in good condition.

The technical inspection has been carried out and does not report any defect. The seller is a private individual located in France in Chelles (77500) and accepts visits during the sale.
The car is sold without reserve.
