Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Convertible Audi TT S - roof reliability / costs?

    (tossup between here and the diy forum - mods move if needed)

    So.. the time has come for a new motor.

    I'm thinking a MK 2 Audi TT (S variant). Happy to go with a coupe but love the idea of a convertible..

    I will be getting a circa 08-10 car and plan on keeping it about 5 years give or take.

    Just wondering about the general craic with soft tops. Are they inclined to give trouble such as leaking or broken motor / mechanism.

    Does anybody have a ballpark on fixing the above if they can be fixed? What would it set me back to replace the fabric if somebody ran a knife through it?

    My aunt has an '08 Renault Coupe convertible (hard top)and it's leaks... last thing I want. I'm inclined to think there is a big difference in quality for Renault versus Audi but I could be very wrong.

    If all is working as intended, would the soft top contribute to the car smelling damp inside. Somebody passed a comment about that before.

    Cheers guys, appreciate any feedback.
