    interesting to see them running an article on the rarity of these and sound investment potential too...worth a nose if you are in your local whsmith. Acually bought the mag for a read over breakfast and wasnt bad...

    The S2 is definitely Audi's forgotten S-Car.

            Possibly the rarest S-Car of all - those UR types are so common ;-)

                The article only asks the question why so few have survived, it doesn't provide an answer. I think most of us know the answer.

                      I am so glad I own one of these cars, interesting to see the write up on the B5RS4 too. A few times I have been tempted to sell them and invest the money in more sensible things, Im glad I didn't...

                          Due to all the cannibalisation..................... the UrS6 has to be the rarest S car out there now and the Plus Speck runout cars much rarer still.

                          96 URS6 plus speck estate

                            If there are that many, most don't see the road that often. It's been some years since I've seen one on the road around the Bristol area. I drive along the M4/M5 every week and I've not seen one in years.
