Confession!!! My mind and heart are starting to wander. I never thought I would consider another but
having now seen the Mk2 often and gotten used to the new look, which I now like especially in different colours, and having driven it, and having my own impressions confirmed by award after award for the new car, I am thinking of getting one.BUT WHAT TO DO WITH MY BELOVED MK1??? Stupid to keep it, although I think it will be a classic like the 356P car, or '63 911, and besides it is still worth about 35-40% of the cost of a new one so would cut my payments consdierably. Won't give to my older son as it would kill me to see it trashed, so I am not quite ready to move yet, but getting closer. Is this what it would feel like if I had an affair???

funny you should say . . . during today's drive . . .
my wife (!) suggested that I keep the TT as a classic, and in a year or two get something else as well. We talked about what the car could be worth in 25 years, which might be considerable. Tonight I was thinking exactly what you said, like a 356. So I say keep it ! And add to the garage. I also like the new TT, am looking forward to sitting in one at the Philly auto show next week, and a drive in the spring, and the bigger engines down the road. And then there's that darn gorgeous M Coupe I like a lot. So life might be more interesting than I thought.

well, sure, that too . . I mean how cool it'll be . .
to head out on a cruise in a perfectly maintained original TT, after the car has gone through 5 or 6 model changes ! Haha I'll be 83. Well, you know what they say, 80 is the new 60 . . .

Sorry, the new car looks like what you would get if a crappy Korean car company tried to copy the ..
