Audi TT 2024 review: 45 TFSI quattro Final Edition
7.8/10
Do you remember when you first saw an Audi TT? I can go first. It was 1998 and I’d been backpacking through Europe for months and had arrived in Paris just as all my money had run out.Anyway, as I was beating myself up for spending way too much on a fridge magnet in a souvenir shop (it had a built-in thermometer) when one drove past me.I saw the Audi badge but before I could work out what it was it turned the corner and was gone.The mysterious Audi was silver and it looked like it was from the future, but actually it was the original TT, the first one, and being about October ‘98 it would have only just come out.I would never have believed you if you’d told me at the time that 25 years later I’d be a motoring journalist and that I’d be reviewing the final Audi TT ever.And here we are with the Audi TT Final Edition. That’s right, Audi has decided to discontinue this sports car after 25 years of production and it’s made this commemorative TT Final Edition that adds unique fettling and some nice features.So, is the TT Final Edition worth buying? What’s so good about it? And how much more does it cost over a regular TT?I found out after spending a weekend on some great roads to say goodbye to this icon. Oh, and I still have the fridge magnet.
Mercedes-AMG C63 S E Performance 2024 review
7.4/10
The Mercedes-AMG C63: Beer taste on a champagne budget? Actually, that’s being unkind, because the C63 has always been every inch a Mercedes.But it’s also the car that proved that just because your wallet has plenty of depth, doesn’t mean you wouldn’t often prefer a good rib-eye over foie gras.Meantime, the changing world has seen to it that the relative fuel consumption and tailpipe emissions of a twin-turbocharged V8 won’t cut it for much longer.The vegans have spoken (although foie gras is probably off the menu there, too) and Mercedes-AMG has been listening.The result is the C63 S E Performance which uses advanced (Formula 1-inspired, according to Mercedes) hybrid technology to deliver the same (or more) thrills as the ICE-powered C63.Along the way there’s also a slew of chassis control technologies at work, all aimed at making this the hot-rod AMG for future decades.But are the nay-sayers right? Will a four-cylinder ever replace a V8? And can a 2.0-litre hybrid ever produce the theatrical splendour of a large-capacity V8 grabbing huge lungfuls at 7000rpm?
Porsche 911 2024 review: Carrera T
7.9/10
It's a question only a relative few have the opportunity to answer for real. How much Porsche 911 is enough?Faced with myriad options through Carrera, Turbo and GT models, where does your satisfaction threshold lie?Well, I've just confirmed mine with the subject of this review, the 911 Carrera T.Closer to the entry-point to the line-up than the top shelf, it's a lightened, tweaked, yet every-day driveable version of this iconic sports car.The 'T' stands for Touring, a designation first applied to the 911 in 1968, and experiencing a rebirth with the previous 991 series of the car, as well as the current Macan.We spent a week exploring its form and function, so, read on to see if this could be your Porsche 911 sweet spot.
