New Audi TT Advantages: Strong engines offer a sensational drive. Solid build, quality materials and strong resale value make it a good choice to buy and own.
Disadvantages: The rear seats are suitable for children only. The cabin lost some of the intricate detailing of the previous car.
Verdict: Even better than the old car.
Also consider: Mazda RX-8, Nissan 350Z.

There are many V70 Classic's about, many with high miles, but several with under 100k on them, at very little extra money.
Thats not to say the V70 is still good at 150k+ but you have less risk with a lower mileage car on things like clutch (500quid job on a 70series) and the like.
Otherwise-
a) Drivers door checkstrap clicking or door pillar itself cracked. b) Growling and or nearly knackered clutch. Life is anywhere between 80k and
140k miles. c) tired tailgate struts and or snagged headlining -avoid car, its had a fair bit of use. d) evidience of lots and lots of receipts and regular servicing. Condition and service history is more important than age or mileage. e) A/C evap burst. - dash out job. f) Electric window switch pack knackered- 80quid new, and good s/h are like rocking horse s*1t. g) Saggy rear suspension and or tow hitch thats seen some use. h) Any sign at all that the engine has overheated in the past or been apart. - avoid. g) ABS lamp lit, or not present at all. ABS modulator faults are reasonably common.Look for the SE's with winter pack (headlamp wash wipe) and the Tape / CD stereo. There are alot of S's or base models about masquerading as SE's. The fake wood and the CD player is the clue its a real SE.
The 2.5 10v is very capable and deceptively faster than it feels, though if you plan to carry passengers, tow or live in a hilly area the 20v is a better bet, or better still the 2.5T.
