I had a Volvo XC60. Super comfortable and practical, but it was getting old and expensive to maintain. A few months ago my girlfriend traded her little Fiat 500C for a Jeep and we didn’t need two SUVs- it was my turn to have a fun car.
I live in ski resort town in Canada with long winters and lots of snow. My house is on top of a very steep driveway. Saying that for me AWD is a requirement for a year-round daily driver is an understatement.
Before any test drive I had my mind set on the Audi TT. I had a good experience owning an A3 and an A4 before. I like the look of the TT in and out. Then I did a test drive. The base model was a disappointment, it didn’t feel much sportier than the A4. The TT-S was quite better, especially the exhaust and suspension, but also more expensive.
Then I test drove the 240... Oh boy... no contest. It’s as fun to drive as the TT-S (maybe even better), at the price of the base TT.
I also considered the S3/RS3 and Golf R, but it felt déjà vu.
Three weeks ago I became the happy owner of a 2018 M240xi.
