The model
Read full Audi TT RS reviewFew similarly priced sports cars can match the outright pace and beautifully constructed interior of the Audi TT RS, but it isn’t the sharpest model in its class to drive. Most obviously, the Porsche 718 Cayman shows it up in the corners, but similarly priced versions of that car have coarse four-cylinder engines, whereas the five-cylinder unit in the TT RS sounds epic.

See full engine specsThe mightly 2.5-litre turbocharged five-cylinder petrol engine pumps out...wait for it...395bhp, and sounds superb — even more so if you opt for the Roadster and put the roof down. With standard quattro four-wheel drive the Coupé can hit 0-62mph in a claimed 3.7sec, while the Roadster is only just behind that. The dual-clutch automatic gearbox is usefully responsive when you're driving hard and changes smoothly when you're cruising.
