AUDI 100 SE
AUTOMATIC 3 SPEED
POWERED BY THE BULLIT PROOF 1. 9 4 CYLINDER PETROL OHV CARB ENGINE SO NO NASTY CAM / TIMING BELTS TO WORRY ABOUT
I PURCHASED IT 6 YEARS AGO TO ADD TO MY CLASSIC AUDI COLLECTION WITH NO INTENTION OF EVER SELLING IT ON HOWEVER I AM MOVING OVERSEAS AND SADLY CANT TAKE IT WITH ME
IT TOOK ME YEARS OF SEARCHING BEFORE I FOUND THIS OUTSTANDINGLY SOLID ORIGINAL UNMOLESTED EXAMPLE
THERE ARE NO SHORTAGE OF THE "LS" AND "GL" MODELS BUT THIS IS THE HOLY GRAIN AUDI 100 C1 AND BELIEVED THE ONLY SURVIVING "SE" !
IVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER ONE AND "HOW MANY LEFT" SHOW JUST ONE 1976 CAR ON "SORN" WHICH IS THIS ONE
ITS COVERED A MERE 59000 MILES IN 48 YEARS
UNBELIEVABLY THE ORIGINAL SERVICE BOOK WAS STILL WITH THE CAR
IT CARRIES THE VEHICLE DATA INFORMATION ON THE REAR COVER AND SHOWS THE CAR WAS SUPPLIED NEW BY "CENTRAL GARAGE AUDI COBHAM LIMITED"
IT ALSO HAD 4 X SERVICE STAMPS BY THEM
I WAS ADVISED BY THE GUY I BOUGHT IT FROM THAT THE CAR WAS USED BY THE DEALER PRINCIPLE BEFORE BEING SOLD TO HIS GRANDFATHER WHEN IT WAS 3 ONLY MONTHS OLD
HIS GRANDFATHER ( COL J W G PEACOCK ) SALDY PASSED AWAY AND THE CAR REMAINED IN THE GARAGE UNTIL 2018 WHEN I PURCHASED IT
THE CAR STARTED , RAN AND DROVE
MANY YEARS OF SITTING IN A DRY GARAGE WITH BLANKETS ALL OVER IT HAS HELPED PROTECT THIS 48 YEAR OLD AUDI FROM THE USUAL RAVAGES OF ROT SO ALTHOUGH IT NEEDS COSMETIC PAINTWORK IT IS NOT A ROT BOX
FURTHERMORE THE INTERIOR HAD VINYL SEAT COVERS ON FROM 3 MONTHS OLD SO THE INTERIOR IS NEAR PERFECT
THE BODY ALTHOUGH SURFACE SCABBY FROM STORAGE IS NOT ROTTEN AND LOOKS WORSE THAN IT ACTUALLY IS
THE CAR DOES NOT NEED A TOTAL RESTORATION AS A REPAINT AND DETAILED RECOMMISSIONING WOULD MAKE THIS A SHOW STOPPER !
THE ONLY AREAS THAT APPEAR TO NEED FABRICATION ATTENTION IS THE BOTTOM OF THE BOLT ON FRONT WINGS ( AS PER PICTURES)
THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR APPEARS SOLID WITH JUST THE EXPECTED 48 YEAR OLD SURFACE CORROSION
THE SILLS ARE SOLID AND HAVE NOTHING MORE THAN LIGHT SURFACE RUST
THE REAR WHEEL ARCHES ARE GOOD AND NOT ROTTED OUT LIKE MOST C1 AUDI's
ALL 4 DOORS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE INSIDE AND OUT WITH JUST LIGHT RUST SPOTS ON THE BOTTOM OUTER EDGE HOWEVER NO HOLES ( SEE PICS)
THE BONNET IS COVERED IN LITTLE SURFACE RUST SPOTS BUT AGAIN SEEMS SOLID INSIDE AND OUT ( SEE PICS)
THE ENGINE BAY NEEDS DETAILING HOWEVER THE INNER WINGS , BULKHEAD AND FRONT SCUTTLE ARE ALL SOLID
UNDER THE REAR SEAT IS THE BATTERY TRAY AND THE FLOOR IS EXCELLENT
BOTH ALUMINIUM BUMPERS ARE STRAIGHT AND IN GOOD CONDITION
ALL EXTERNAL BODY TRIMS NEED NOTHING MORE THAN A DETAILED CLEAN
THE CHROME SILL TRIMS ARE REMOVED HOWEVER BOTH PRESENT
THE BOOT LID HAS FLAT LAQUER AND WILL NEED PREPPING BEFORE PAINTING BUT AGAIN IS NOT ROTTEN (SEE PICS)
THE BOOT FLOOR IS EXCEPTIONAL WITH NO CORROSION ISSUES
THE FUEL TANK IS GOOD WITH JUST LOIGHT SURFACE RUST SPOTS AROUND THE EDGE ( SEE PICS)
THE BLACK YINYL ROOF IS EXCELLENT AND THERE IS NO RUST ISSUES AROUND THE FACTORY FITTED STEEL SLIDING SUNROOF ( WHICH WORKS PERFECTLY)
THE FRONT AND REAR SCUTTLES ARE SOLID WITH NOTHING MORE THAN THE ODD RUST SPOT
THE INTERIOR IS OUTSTANDING
THE SE HAD VINYL SEAT COVERS FITTED BY THE AUDI DEALER IN 1976 AND HAVE ONLY JUST BEEN REMOVED
THE REAR SEATS LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN SAT ON
THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS SEAT ARE EXCELLENT WITH ONLY A SMALL 6mm HOLE NEEDING REPAIRING ON THE DRIVERS SEAT BASE ( I WAS ADVISED THAT A PROCESS CALLED "FLOCKING' USED BY TRIMMERS WOULD MAKE THIS AN INVISIBLE REPAIR)
WHERE THE COVERS HAVE BEEN ON THE SEATS HAVE RETAINED THE DEEP BLUE COLOUR WHEN THEY WERE NEW
THE DASH APPEARS TO BE IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NO GAPPING CRACKS OR LIFTING
