showtime1 Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 2nd week of ownership and each time i clean it i notice how poor the quality of materials are. the carpets are rubish no underlay under them , good point the seats are pretty good though, the bodywork panels are very thin compared to the audi ,probally thats why there heavy. but it does drive nice and looks the dogs.

showtime1 Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 totally agree its a brill car just after having a tt for 3 yrs you notice stuff like the tt was slower even though it was a 3.2 dsg with stage 2 ,schrick cams etc. but seriously its a lovely car just got to clean it more and look after it ,and ive got to be carefull when i wash it as i must press down to hard as the panels push in.

Husky Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 honestly if you really give the paint some tlc with lots of layers of good hard wax its pretty durable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime1 Posted May 6, 2010 Author Share Posted May 6, 2010 my carpets look fine but start proding them they are thin and not tightly fitted but then im only comparing to the audi which had thick tightly fitted carpets . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 they are very hard wearing though if thats any consolation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop comparing it to your audi & enjoy it for what it is. The build quality will never compare to the Audi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geoff-r Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 don't forget this was a sports car built to budget. but it is a good car You can't really say it any better than that. I do agree with your points though, the paint is thin, the panels are thin, the road noise is quite bad, but then again it's a drivers car, it goes well and looks stunning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronzee Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Carpets in mine lasted 5 years from new. So that's not bad. The original ones still clean up pretty well too, just look a bit worn under the heel rub areas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 i'd pick this over an audi any day, well maybe not an R8 or R10 but then they are a different league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop comparing it to your audi & enjoy it for what it is. The build quality will never compare to the Audi +1 if you wanna add 5k more to the price then you'll get audi standards.

dcash5 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 How much carpet do you actually see? I have floor mats and a lux bootmat? Only about 15cm sq left! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
