TT 8N model years

As is usual with cars, the Audi TT 8N has had regular updates throughout its lifecycle. Below is an overview of the known changes to the Audi TT 8N Coupé from its market launch in October 1998 until June 2006, when the curtain fell on the Audi TT 8N and the 8J took over. Remarkably, apart from the Model Year changes (standard at Audi in May), there were regular interim modifications.

We will discuss some of the changes (see the links) in more detail on other pages such as equipment.

Remarks

On the desktop version of the website, this overview is best to follow. Unfortunately, the screen of a smartphone is too limited.
This overview is based on the German market and will certainly still lack some details. But the main points are definitely there.
