can't see a BMW being that much more expensive to insure than a TT

225's are group 18 in old money terms - appreciate the group is not the direct impact of insurance costs

I've had my 225 for a year now and love it. Deffo recommend them.

As said with a £300 remap and DV etc they go from 225 to as much as 260.

A v6 with DSG is the way forwards, my neighbour had one and after going out in it really changed my opinion of TT's

And Quattro in the winter is only as good as the tyres you use.
