This Audi Ur-Quattro got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1985 Audi Ur-Quattro is finished in Amazon Blue over a gray leather interior and is powered by a turbocharged 2.1L inline-five paired with a five-speed manual transaxle and Quattro all-wheel drive. The car was sold new from Precision Imports of Tulsa, Oklahoma in March 1985, and spent time in Colorado and Texas before being offered on BaT in 2013. It came to New York with the seller’s purchase in 2019. Equipment includes heated front seats, air conditioning, and a sunroof, and the car was serviced in December 2019 with a valve job, a new head gasket, and recalibration of the fuel distributor. This Ur-Quattro is now offered by the selling dealer in New York with service records back to 1990, a factory warranty card, an owner’s manual, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Texas title.

The turbocharged and intercooled 2.1-liter WX inline-five was factory rated at 160 horsepower, which is sent to all four wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle and an all-wheel-drive system with lockable center and rear differentials. Work performed in December 2019 included adjusting the fuel distributor, removing the cylinder head, replacing the valves, replacing the head gasket, reinstalling the head with new head bolts, and a timing belt service.
