Quattro, ur-quattro and TQC?

I always thought that ur-quattro and TQC were other names for the car
known (in the UK anyway) as the Audi Quattro. I thought that these
cars had the following: Coupe body, 4 wheel drive, 2144cc (initially)
turbo engine with about 200hp, flared wheel arches, wide Ronal wheels
(>6"), 4 square headlamps initially, then 2 flat rectangular, then
(1984) 2 sloping to match the new grille, etc..
Could you give more info on the differences between these cars (with
perhaps years, engine cc and hp and running gear differences)?
Thanks.
