Hi all,

I always thought that the old shape Audi TT's were all Quattro?

..but my friend here believes that some did come in 2wd?

...is this true?

Audi made a 2WD MK1 TT. Not sure the BHP, it may have been 180 or even 150.

Audi made a 150bhp FWD TT. All the others were quattro.

Audi made a 2WD Mk1 TT with 225 bhp, you could only buy the 4 pot in 4wd OR auto not both together, if you wanted 4wd and auto you had to buy the 3.2 V6.

Wrong, you could get the 180 in FWD also.

All the 225's were quattro the same as the V6.

My understanding of the MK1s

225 4x4

150 2wd

180 2wd

You can tell the lower models by only having one exhaust and only the one hair straightener holder

All the UK ones were quattro I believe. and yeah, the 180 version has 1 exhaust instead of 2

UK 180's and 225's are QUATTRO.

UK 150 is FWD.

No idea what the 163PS model is. Euro spec?

They are all made from a jelly mould and the steering works by inserting a stick into said jello to ensure that bespoke "feels like its dead" characteristic that Audi seem able to build into most of their cars. It is a quality stick however and I believe the jello used is 3 star Michelin standard.

I'll try again, some people might listen this time...

225 - all quattro (possibly with the exception of the rare auto, NOT dsg but normal auto, box models)

180 - early models were fwd, then they changed to or offered quattro, so you need to check which it has if it's a 180.

V6 3.2 - all quattro.

150 - introduced later in the life cycle - all fwd

240 QS - all quattro

near the end of life cycle they upped the 150 to 163 and the 180 to 190 as run out models.

163 still fwd and the 190 all quattro I think as it was end of life.
