I am looking for a new car so In the last couple of weeks iv'e driven a Mazda RX8, Nissan 350Z and i'm sorry to admit an Audi TT (V6 DSG) the wife wanted to try it.
The Audi was a dog under steering badly a nice sound and great cabin but not enough GO I currently drive a SEAT V5 and i feel it and my friends Skoda vRS are much better products based on the same floorpan.
If anyones interested the Nissan and the Mazda are SUPERB

I was close to going for the Nissan great styling, fantastic pace, handles like a dream and a great noise that engines a gem, but when specced up to how i would want it the price was £31.5 K not exactly a bargain close to boxster money.
The Mazda was just as good as the Nissan less powwerfull but considerably lighter so almost as rapid and fully specced comes in at £25.5K more of a bargain, and that Wankel engine what a masterpiece. Anyhow to cut a long story short the TT is CRAP

The Mazda and Nissan superb. I am going to test a Honda S2000 before i make a the jump.

Or i also tested a VX Turbo What can i say truly mad. If it was a bit more everyday driving friendly i would have snapped the dealers hand off but it's not a car you could reasonably drive every day. Beside with my banged up knee (skiing accident) it was to say the least difficult to get in / out of

Just wanted to appologise if my thoughts of the Audi TT caused offence. A car purchase is a very subjective process. I may have been harsh and i think i did go on a bit, but in my defence this is a very exciting prospect for me to be seriously considering the purchase of one of these great cars. I probably did woffle on a bit

Just a note the rules at the top of this link state "Only topics related to the slot car hobby and motoring will be allowed"
By the way the Skoda Octavia vRS is a great car my mate's a cop so he drives one at work (pursiut car) and he was so taken with it he bought one. It really is one of those cars that needs to driven to realise just how good it is and talk about a bargain.
Maybe it shuld be tried and then valued against a TT. There is noway a TT is worth it's price when compared to cars like the vRS wich are based on the same platform.
Sorry iv'e rattled on again.
