Audi TT RS: Sounds fantastic!

Audi TT RS
Very nice review here of the Audi TT RS.
Audi has summoned up the spirit of its iconic Ur Quattro from the 80s with the introduction of the TT RS, a 335bhp five-cylinder-engined version of the popular TT.

But where the TT is a tame, comfortable sports cruiser, this new variant is a very different beast. It certainly looks the part, with deeper air intakes at the front and a large fixed spoiler and integrated diffuser at the rear. And under the bonnet sits a new 2.5-litre turbocharged five-pot engine, a spiritual successor to the powerplant found in the original Quattro.

It makes the TT RS mighty quick, dispatching 0-62mph in just 4.7 seconds before powering on to a limited top speed of 155mph. However, if this isn't enough, for an extra £1,300 you can ditch the limiter to enable it to reach 174mph.
