Not normally a fan of the M3 but in white it really works and is for sure one of the best colours for it.

That first pic of the bonnet etc is awesome

Glad to see you got a proper car after the girly Z4

Glad to be able to say that my garage is still faster than your though

Thanks 535dboy  I am like you & think that white seems to suit it, your garage is quicker & alot sexier than mine! You have an awesome collection...I wouldn't say no to any of yours, enjoy 

Very nice car and they rev high as tried one on a test drive.

Thanks very much graemeX5  I test drove one a few months after they launched & just fell in love with the engine & knew I had to own one at some stage, my bro in law has the convertible model but deep down I know I am a coupe man so coupe it had to be.

It's twin clutch, but if I am honest I wish we had gone for a manual, the M3 is manual so all is not lost! I am very old fashioned & enjoy three pedals, there isn't that much reward from the TT even though it does 0 to 60 in 5.2 it's not the most rewarding steer, it looks good but that's little consolation.

They are good all weather weapons, you may remember we had a V6 vert before the Porsche

I could confidently drive the TT faster in the cold/wet than I can the porker.

In the dry however .....

I agree, the mrs just fancied something a little more competent in the bad weather than the 330 as this caused a few challenges in the snow a few years ago!

She used to have a TT roadster & she loved it tbh & my mate had a 3.2 DSG TT & when I drove it I was very impressed with it.

The twin clutch in the TT-S is at odds with the turbo engine though I think the twin clutches work better with a natural aspiration engine,  I must admit i am in awe of your collection you must be very happy with them you have the best of all worlds, enjoy. 

I never drove a TTS but many say it was better than the V6, would have liked a go or even more so in a TTRS.

I need to make more of an effort to use the Exige next year as barely used it last. Only did 3 track days and I used the Porker on the early morning runs more than the Lotus too

If I don't use it more this year then it may well go but the Mrs keeps telling me to keep it (although she never goes in it!)

Good to hear you have a nice understanding mrs  the TT-S gives a nice sound for a four pot & is capable & when using the paddles it can be good fun...I like you would like to experience the TT-RS I bet that five pot is a gem in that car.

I only ever drive ours cars off the paddles, just feel a bit more connected that way
