The Audi TT is in my opinion one of the best styled cars in the past 30 years. And I’ve put my money where my mouth is – I owned one for 9 years. I loved every minute, even taking it around the track. But I’m waiting for the next car with a style so unique that I’ve just got to own it. It’s a car that’s spanned four decades through three different guises and ended production in November 2023. So, just where did the inspiration for the TT come from, what disaster struck just after it launched and did the second and third generation improve on the TT formula?
