This is a tight category. The Audi TT and Volkswagen Eos scored the same number of points, so the decision went down to a tie-breaker.
The Audi has superb door locks, an effective alarm and immobiliser, and especially good vehicle identification markings.
It's an excellent result for a fabric-roofed car and, along with its coupe sibling, helps Audi close in on the manufacturer award.
2nd: Volkswagen Eos
Price from £19,990
The Eos has an identical score to the TT, but is placed second because Audi has more model ranges that qualify for the manufacturer award.
3rd: Volvo C70
Price from £25,750
The C70 squeezes ahead of the fourth-placed Saab 9-3, thanks to slightly better parts marking and a unique stereo that is coded to each individual car.
