DDB London has created a national TV campaign that celebrates the 30-year history of the Volkswagen Golf.

The 60-second commercial, called '30 years in the making', shows the history and evolution of the Golf through the eyes of a young German engineer called Wolfgang.

Jorian Murray, the managing director at DDB London, said: 'The strategy behind the campaign is to show the evolution of an icon. The Golf has firmly won a place in the hearts of the British public. The job of the ad is to say 'right, this is something you love, it is iconic, it is everything you love about the older ones and more'.'
