The Appeal
We love a barn find here at Car & Classic but some clearly stand above others.
And what could be more exciting than uncovering an Ur-Quattro that hasn’t seen the light of day for almost 30 years? You can experience the fun by searching through the Late Brake Show youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kFpoh1COeE)

Now this very car could be yours.
It’s going to need some work to make it roadworthy, clearly, but the allure of an original Quattro Turbo is hard to resist. Without wanting to offer any spoilers for the video, it’s currently a non runner and will need trailering away.
However, the interior is in good shape and, while there is some corrosion to take care of, the bodywork is in remarkably good condition.

If you’re prepared for the work, the rewards are there for the taking; values of early Quattro Turbos have been on the up for a while. But the joy to be had from opening your garage door to see a fully restored ur-Quattro?
Now, that would be something to savour.

The History and Paperwork
- July 1982 build, thought to be one of the first 70 RHD examples
- First registered 1 September 1982
- Believed to have been owned by the last owner for 4-5 years prior to being parked up in a garage, for reasons unknown
- Completely untouched from 1994
- Star of a recent Barn Find edition of The Late Brake Show with Jonny Smith
- Currently SORN
- Old MOTs
- Some handwritten invoices
- V5 present
The Interior
- Brown Zebra velour seats
- Matching headlining
- Completely original
- Good condition
- Everything in place apart from the radio
Almost a design classic in its own right, a zebra velour Audi interior from the early eighties is quite something to behold. Not only does the distinctive pattern appear on the seats but also in the headlining.
Over the years it seems to have avoided any serious abuse from its owners and the attention of any small furry animals while in storage. That, and having been out of the sun for the best part of thirty years, means that the soft furnishings and the dashboard are in surprisingly good condition.
The radio is missing and it’s not known if all of the switchgear works at this stage. But when you do find a suitable stereo, there’s a full set of Alpine speakers to hook it up to.
The boot is tidy, too, and there’s a space saver spare, a jack, and the all important sticker that helps to identify the build date.
In all, it’s about as good as you could hope for in a barn find interior.

The Exterior
- Alpine White
- Body kit
- Fuchs Alloys
The Audi Quattro Turbo was launched in 1980 at the Geneva Motor Show in this very colour and with these optional Fuchs alloy wheels, making this a very evocative colour scheme.
The bodyshell has fared remarkably well, as has the paint, but it will need a full restoration.
The bodyshell has fared remarkably well, as has the paint, but it will need a full restoration.
It’s not known when the bodykit was fitted but it’s very of its time and so a future owner may decide to retain it. The wheels are in fair condition but the tyres have perished and won’t hold air for any length of time, which isn’t a huge shock at this stage.
The underside reportedly shows no signs of damage but there is some corrosion which will need to be addressed in numerous areas.
Overall, there’s plenty of work to be done but the starting point could be a lot worse.

The Mechanics
- 2.2-litre turbocharged inline five cylinder engine
- Five speed manual gearbox
- Four wheel drive, as the name implies
- Currently a non runner
- Starter solenoid inoperative
- Original cam cover has now been found
- Brakes removed
Under the bonnet the engine looks to be almost complete but it is currently a non-runner.
The starter solenoid fails to operate and so it’s not been possible to turn the engine over. Also, when the car was put into storage, the cam cover, brake callipers and pads were removed. Thankfully, the owner has just found them, so the original cam cover and brake calipers will come with the car.
We therefore can’t tell you how the car goes down the road but we can easily imagine how it will drive when it’s restored and that it involves a lovely, five cylinder, offbeat, whooshy soundtrack and unbeatable traction.

Summary
A fabulous opportunity to bring a very rare and early Audi Quattro back to life, not to be missed for the ur-Quattro enthusiast. Get bidding - this is one car that's sure to be a bit of a scene hero once it's been restored to its former glory!

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
