► Month two with the Audi TTS
► Durable floor mats catch our eye
► A long test means every aspect is tested
Well, this is a turn up for the books. Of all the things I could be writing about our new TTS – its design, the Porsche-troubling pace – I’m talking about floor mats. But that’s the beauty of a long-term test; it gives us the chance to meander around the more unlikely day-to-day practicalities of living with a car.
And it’s the TT’s removable carpets that’ve caught my eye this month: they’re hard-wearing, easy to clean and somehow classy at the same time, with a nylon weave creating a rubberised feel for a grippy, durable finish. Neat.
