1986 Audi UR Quattro

£ 55 000

The UR Quattro didn’t just join the rally scene. It detonated it. Permanent four wheel drive, turbocharged five cylinder power, Box arch aggression. This was the machine that dragged Audi to the front of the world stage and forced every other manufacturer to rethink everything they knew about performance. Without this car, there is no modern RS lineage, no Quattro dominance, no blueprint for turbocharged all weather performance cars. This is not simply a classic. It is a cornerstone of motoring history.

WHY THIS CAR STANDS OUT

• Lightly used over the last decade

• Carefully maintained rather than stored and forgotten

• Media history through Wheeler Dealers

• Signed by a rally legend

• Presented as a truly lovely example by its long term owner

It hasn’t been over restored, it hasn’t been modified beyond recognition, it hasn’t been thrashed and flipped. It has simply been enjoyed sparingly and looked after properly.

WHY YOU NEED TO ACQUIRE THIS VEHICLE

• Because it is one of the most important performance cars ever built

• Because rally heritage matters

• Because collectors value originality and provenance

• Because five cylinders on boost still make grown adults grin

• Because opportunities like this are getting rarer by the year

For the rally enthusiast, this is history you can start and drive.

For the collector, this is a blue chip icon with story and substance.

For the proper car person, this is everything a classic performance car should be.

If you know what the UR Quattro represents, you already know why it belongs in your garage.
