My Other Car’s a Porsche

The first generation Audi TT is – in the writer’s opinion – one of the greatest automotive designs of the last quarter-century. With curved surfaces, minimalist detailing, and brushed aluminium everywhere, it was a zeitgeist for the new millennium aesthetic.

That it didn’t drive anywhere near as good as it looked was irrelevant to the tens of thousands of buyers in TLCB’s home nation, where the TT was an enormous success. They bought it on design alone, a niche today filled by the Range Rover Evoque.

Cue Nathanael Kuipers’ recreation of the TT, constructed solely from the LEGO 10295 Creator Expert Porsche 911 set. An opening hood (with a detailed engine underneath), doors and rear hatch feature, and you can jump back to peak late-’90s automotive design at Nathanel’s photostream.
