Description
This 1996 Audi 80 Cabriolet 2. 6 is an attractive modern classic cruiser, which is finished in an eye-catching colour scheme and with low mileage from new.
Under the bonnet is the 150hp 2. 6-litre V6, which drives the front wheels via a five-speed manual transmission. The odometer displays just 30, 101 miles. Largely based on the B3-generation Audi 80, the simply named Audi Cabriolet was first introduced in 1991, and underwent a number of minor changes until it was phased out in the year 2000.
First registered on 20 April 1997, this right-hand drive Cabriolet has spent much of the past 10 years in storage with its previous owner, covering just 390 miles since August 2010. The vehicle remains stored indoors with the current owner as well. Laser Red paintwork presents extremely well and the interior is unmarked. The black fabric soft top (electric) is also fully functional and in lovely condition.
This Audi Cabriolet’s external trim is also all in superb order. The car rides on the correct set of 15-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels, which are again completely unmarked. On entering the cabin, you are met by a set of vibrantly upholstered seats, which feature patterned red fabric centres and smooth black leather bolsters. Elsewhere, the interior trim has a smart appearance and is excellent condition.
The car has also been fitted with a more modern Sony CD radio head unit with electric aerial. Stamped services have been completed @ 8, 262, 11, 501, 17, 320, with the most recent service being carried out in June 2020 at 30, 053 miles by Audi specialist QST Limited, by way of a major service including replacement of the cam and V belts and repair of the fuel sender, as well as an oil and filter change, and the fitment of a new oil pressure switch resulting with an invoice for £1, 324. 79.
Accompanying this open-top cruiser are its original handbooks, owner’s manual and service books, a number of past MOT test certificates, code cards, tax discs and spare remote batteries. This Audi 80 Cabriolet 2. 6 is a classy open-top tourer which features a vibrant interior colour scheme and very low mileage from new. Offering comfortable seating for four and a smooth 2. 6-litre V6, this lesser-seen manual Cabriolet will make an excellent companion for the coming spring and summer months, and its Laser Red paintwork is sure to brighten even the dreariest of days.
