So, I wanted a TT for years, ever since I can remember, always had baby engines and had finance, this year I saved like nuts to buy the car I always wanted......Mk1 TT convertible.
I literally spent a year looking at TT's but couldn't find one that I fell in love with or had the "spec" that I wanted, not overly fussed about having 150,180 or 225 just wanted a car I would love looking at and love driving.
So in October I found her! I found what I was looking for.......but a week before I was going on holiday and with a car unsold in my current possession with no interest in anyone buying it, so a trade in deal was agreed, I was busy signing all the paperwork for the deposit and for them to hold her till I got back from hols - whilst doing this someone called up wanting to view her....too late I signed the dotted line!
My ibiza went up for sale thinking I'd try and get more than the trade in offer (the garage were fine with this) and I took a deposit for the ibiza the day before flying off.
My entire holiday I was counting down till I would be back to pick up my beauty.
that day came and I was soooooo excited.....the first words out of my mums mouth (bearing in mind im 27) "this cars got more power than the last be careful"
So I owned her for a couple of days and the engine management light comes on.....urgh really?! and then a few hours later the airbay light came on!!! ffs! Skeee the little ledge that he is told me to go to his for him to plug in to her and it came up with one of the O2 sensors and the airbag not communicating.
She was back in the garage within days and they did great, replaced/fixed everything under warranty.
So then I take her to Audi for her winter health check..........I now have a shopping list.
Few days later the airbag light comes back on, she goes back in to the garage and all fixed again.
Even though having owned her for a short while and a couple of general wear and tear bits need doing (which I expect) I am so so happy with my purchase. Not planning on lots of mods but I'm sure that will change over time, but for now im loving my 2004 dolomite grey 150 tt she's beautiful
