Car has come up trumps again with some sold info on the Mk3 Audi TT. It’s expected Audi will launch the third-gen TT in 2014 with the company’s R&D boss Michael Dick revealing, “It will be a fusion of the Mk1 and Mk2. Expect a more sinewy and athletic car. The design remains iconic, but [...]

Car magazine brings us a new selection of spy shots for the upcoming third-generation Audi A3. We’re likely to get a full reveal of the A3 at Geneva in March this year. We already have a pretty good idea of what to expect on the inside. It’s believed the new MQB platform is as much [...]
