S1 For Sale

[mikeraz1]

Just looking at a copy of Classic & Sports Car, they recon that new it would have cost £51,282 (1985) but is now worth between £45,000 and £80,000

[S2_Dave]

Not worth considering as a company car then. The Benefit in Kind would be a killer!!

[volcano rs]

i have never seen a right hand sport .as far as i know they never built them in right hand drive .

[newsh]

This one is LHD, check the pics.

[Tonks4x4]

There was a company that was commissioned in the UK to convert some from LHD to RHD. IIRC.

It's f'in beautifull. Checked my savings and all I need is at least another £64,800 and I can make the guy an offer.

So here goes.......

For Sale or hire:

Middle aged, over weight, ugly guy. (Too) many previous owners, geeky character and annoying personality (brought about by interest in Audis). Will do anything (pretty much) for cash donations for old (ugly) car.

Help a geek, make a donation.........


I'll be hanging around street corners every night untill I've got the money, hope nobody buys it first...

How many white ones are in the uk?
This wouldnt be the one that got "bent" at castle coombe a few years ago would it? rear OS quarter, seen as the boot is out of line.
I posted a pic of it on here but cant find it.

absolutely gorgeous, however with Audi's service to heritage vehicles I'd be worried the day it needs fixing...cambelt cover is nla for starters

Apparantly, windscreen rubbers are nla as are screens, being basic Audi 80 parts !
I do not believe they ever made RHD versions ??
Having been exceptionally lucky to have a ride in and then actually driven one about 10 years ago........ I wouldn't buy one- even if I had that money !

[UrS4boy]

Oh and only 8 RHD cars were officially imported into the UK so this is a damn rare car and also the one my wife will be buying me if she ever wins the lottery Cheers n Si

Ah, er, I think you need to check your facts. Of the 214 Sport quattro's that were built, exact ZERO were RHD, i.e. NONE.

Of the original run, 6 sport quattros were intended for Britain: 063 (red), 072 (red), 076 (red), 160 (green), 206 (white) and 207 (green). All had mph speedos, electric windows and mirrors and central locking "features not part of the normal specification"

Reference: Audi Driver, April 2001, pg. 66 "All the Sports - A guide to the 214 Sport quattros produced by Audi".

If there were any RHD cars, they were conversions of some type, not factory cars.

unfortunately the type 81/85 stuff is only going to get worse, speaking to martyn f at vagparts highlighted this as I was planning on building a ur quattro from scratch from a shell I know of and he said its actually easier to say what he can get rather than what he cannot.

And that was not alot

Oh yeah i remember that now you mention it

[UrS4boy]

Wow lovely and in my fav colour

And from the Pistonheads advert "CAR ORIGINALLY SUPPLIED NEW TO SWITZERLAND"

There were several white Sport q's supplied to the Swiss:

No.'s 132, 134, 142, 153, 154, 156, 174, 182 and 211 (the latter's production date was March 8, 1985 - still not a "1986" in my mind).

They also got some red ones and blue ones.
