First introduced in 1980, the Audi Quattro redefined the all-wheel drive performance car sector, with the later MB-engined versions from 1988 featuring the sought after digital dashboard and Torsen differential for improved traction and balance
Registered in 1988, this UK-supplied MB model is on offer from 12 years ownership and has recently emerged from long term storage
Finished in Metallic Zermatt Silver with black leather upholstery and fitted with electric windows and mirrors, factory sunroof, power steering, ABS, differential control, front fog lights, headlamp washers, rear spoiler and an upgraded CD/ radio system
The 2. 2-litre, five-cylinder turbocharged engine delivers around 240bhp via a 5-speed manual gearbox to the Quattro permanent all-wheel drive system, incorporating a Torsen centre differential
Upgrades include a Motec M84 electronic fuel-injection system converted by VRS Performance and mapped by David Rowe of EPS Motorsport, an uprated K24 turbocharger with billet compressor wheel for sharper response, and a Milltek stainless steel exhaust
Supplied with a substantial history file dating back to the 1990s containing invoices and records detailing maintenance and upgrades, with an MOT valid until August 2026 and mileage recorded in kilometres
A well presented and increasingly sought after modern classic, combining rally-bred engineering, period styling and subtle performance enhancements, representing an excellent opportunity for any enthusiast of 1980s performance machinery
