ebay S2 - as if!!

[Tap Towers]

Bet he fooled loads of people with the manifold cooler saying that it was a turbo, even spools up when its not running- "wikid init".

No way an S2, but come on lads, the 2.2 10v's are still a cult car, my 2.3 has just stopped being a teenager this year, and shes cost me nothing since i got it. (unlike my real kids!)

But the log book reads right, and im proud to be a poor man.
For now.

Hmm my old 10v KV B2 was listed correctly on the log book. Maybe a previous owner corrected it.

Must say my 2.3 10V is also listed correctly, but my S2 was listed incorrectly at one point (as many were); I had that corrected.

I think it is only B3 10v quattro models that were erroneously listed as turbos, AFAICT

I've just looked it up and it does come back as a turbo.

Audi made a real balls of the naming... here is potted version

The famous wedgey / rally / turbo 4WD machine is the original 'UR' Quattro - with a capital Q as well I think - or maybe I got that wrong

It was based on the 'B2' bodyshell from the FWD Audi Coupe... After success of the turbo machine and its elite status on hand built line etc, Audi produced some other 4WD machines... indeed there was a 4WD version of the B2 coupe shape without a turbo (KV engine) which was the 'Audi Coupe quattro' - note use of lowercase 'q' when Audi started to concentrate on this stuff.

When the wedgy shape of the 80s phased out with the launch of the 'B3' curvy coupe platform we also have the same KV engined mechanics in the 'Audi Coupe quattro' that this eBay car seems to be. Only available circa 1988-1990 approx.

The flagship B3 Coupe was of course the S2 - 'Audi Coupe quattro S2' or sometimes 'Audi S2 Coupe 4WD' on log books - that always has 20V turbo engine.

You're right Paul - Quattro was the model and quattro is the drivetrain
