Audi TT Roadster test drive since 2007
We go to Gogol, we walk with a trump card

Show yourself. The streets and especially along the embankments on the Cote d'Azur, they go slowly. Not because it is dangerous to rush (and sometimes contagious: after driving along the Nice embankment, let's say, on Ferrari Enzo, you can pick up a pig), it is simply customary not to drive, but to walk. Show yourself in your gorgeous square and look at your own kind. A kind of car promenade.

This roof does not only require manual labor, but also stops to work with it. We go to ourselves in a general stream with an officially permitted speed of 50 km/h and calmly open for envious look and closed from the malicious-vicious ones-this is exactly the speed to which you can play with the roof.
We have achieved our own: they pay attention to us. And on the roof, and on the new class itself. And on the embankment of Nice, and with the famous casino in Monte Carlo, and the equally famous oceanographic museum of Kousto. Everyone, of course, understands that we are showing off, but they come to these lands. There is the daddy who waves a tennis racket on the upper deck of the yacht, aiming the ball into the wheel of the cutting (imagine this yacht?), Does he not show off? He is a yacht, we are a family. We are here among our own. (And by the way, he never got into the porthole while we stood on the embankment. One is in our favor.)
Okay, they showed themselves and enough. We won’t call in the casino, otherwise it will be nonpathos in such a relative and with empty pockets. It would be necessary to rush into the mountains, twist through serpentines, and to repay the autobahn.

... and get a baseball cap. We go to the autobahn. We accelerate well. And then it becomes uncomfortable in an open car. In the summer, probably, the mountain wiper would be very pleasant, but now, alas, not summer, and the breeze is not

Well, all, stuck. Raise the roof (naturally, reducing the speed to the placed fifty), thaw. How good and comfortable, warm and quiet in a closed salon. There is already speed, wind, cold and rustle of tires do not play a role - we are in the house. Above our heads we have a solid sandwich, in the filling of which there are noise and heat-insulating layers- we theoretically knew this, but now we feel in practice. With your own ears and tops.
Drive in high. You read and probably think: what is it on the roof only on the roof? And where is the technique, where is the drive? I have excuses. Firstly, the roof in this case is an element that determines both the type and the ideology of the car. She is archived here. Secondly, about equipment and drive have already been in sufficient detail. We rolled the TT coupe and on a presentation test drive in the Alps (No. 8, 2006), and on the steam room, with Porsche Cayman S, a test drive in Moscow (No. 11, 2006). The coupe and the class technique are extremely close to each other. The differences are that the relatives are heavier, since the open body requires a powerful additional amplification, it has aerodynamics and acceleration worse (but only a little bit, for tenths), smaller trunk (the roof requires a place), two, and not two+two seats. ... And by the drive they, in my opinion, are completely indistinguishable. Compact, strong, tight, fast, stylish car. In this and on the Cote d'Azur, it is not a shame to appear.
