A1 Quattro
Posted: Fri Jul 03, 2020 11:11 pm
I seem to be on a bit of a "hot hatch roll" at the moment, just after buying my Mk1 Golf Gti a week or so ago I received a text from the chap I bought my Audi A1 Quattro from in 2017, we had a "gentleman's agreement" that if I sold it I'd give him first option to buy it back which he did when I sold it in mid 2018, with of course the option for me to buy it back if he sold etc.....
Well he's decided to sell and called me to see if I wanted to buy, so I'm collecting it next week !
This is an absolutely epic car ! Only 333 were made and 19 originally imported to the UK. All in the same colour , all LHD and four wheel drive - an Audi A1 Quattro with an S3 engine tuned to 256bhp, with a sports exhaust . Bit of a German Integrale.
I can't actually remember why I sold it, probably to buy a 911, but I'm pleased to be getting it back, of course with the option for him to buy it from me if I sell. It's an incredible car and I think one of six left in the UK. Since buying from me, he's driven it home to Lancashire from my house ( about 120 miles ) then 10 miles to the detailers for an 80 hour ceramic coating detailing session, taken it for a service and that's pretty much it ( he's got quite a few other cars which he drives instead ) so it's in absolutely perfect condition.
I think a trip over the Alps to the rescheduled Mille Miglia in October is on the cards.
Roll on collection day next Wednesday.
