Welcome to the "Audi TT Owners Forum"
Our Aim is to provide a friendly forum for all 'Audi TT' owners worldwide to gather and discuss 'All things TT'. Whether you own a MK1, a Coupe, a Quattro, a Convertible, the new MK2 or simply dream of owning an 'Audi TT' you are welcome to join our forum. We will even allow Volkswagen/Porsche discussion here as its heritage is closely aligned with Audi.
The TT was first shown as a concept car at the 1995 Frankfurt Motor Show. The design is credited to J Mays and Freeman Thomas of Volkswagen's California design studio. The name is an abbreviation of "Tourist Trophy", an annual road race held on the Isle of Man, not "twin turbo" as is sometimes assumed. Turbocharged models only feature a single turbocharger. It also refers back to the NSU TT, a small rear-engine model with a formidable racing pedigree that NSU produced in the 1960s and was based on the NSU Prinz, although the modern TT shares next to nothing with that model's design concepts.
History: Auto Union was the result of the amalgamation of four companies; Wanderer, DKW, Audi and Horch; hence the four rings, one for each company, of the badge. In 1969 Auto Union became Audi NSU as it merged with NSU and finally became Audi in 1985. The word AUDI stands for 'Auto Union Deutschland Ingolstadt', Ingolstadt being the town in which the Audi Head Office is located.
