I had a TT try his luck about a fortnight ago, we both come out of an island and blasted down an empty dual carraigeway.

He was quite convincingly left to watch my rear disappear.

I was mildy surprised with the gap attained in a straight blast.

You must have come up against a standard uk model.

Well 'my mate' raced a tt (225bhp) and pulled away quite nicely which just adds to my theory that uk (my98) scooby bhp figures are somewhat conservative.

Matty, true because even the TT boys say that once the scoob hits 3rd its goodbye larry...

Also, I caught up with a (twin exhaust) TT convertible very quickly in my MY99 when joining a motorway and from the look on his face I think he was really going for it

I am registered on the TT Forum and wind them up every now and then - they bite like anything...

In fairness, the TT is a nice car, but it is by no means on a performance level to any Scoob - Even a Sport would be quicker than a 180bhp one...

Really? A sport is as quick as a 180 VAG unit? Hmmm, better nip out and buy one then.

Silver Audi TT, Leicester ring road, he was pushing me for a bit of a race, I wasn't biting, and just as my S6R Neo alerted me to a Specs camera system he blasted past me doing 70+ mph in a 40, Oh well I thought!
When I got to the roundabout at the top he was only 2 yards in front, all he gained was a few yards and I suspect a lot of points.
Ha Ha Ha Ha !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
