Audi A1 Quattro (1 of 19)

[The Chubby Pirate]

Remember reading about these when they were first brought into the UK! Only 333 worldwide and only 19 brought to the UK!
Pricey mind lol.

Forty faaasand paaaand ?!

Roffle.

 

[George182]

No ta.

 

[Diagro]

wrong side. LHD no thanks

 

[Knuckles]

Looool. Fuk dat!

 

[adamlstr]

I'd consider this over a 1m tbh, bit of a gamble on future value though.

Edit: Actually sack that, they're only 256ps. I thought they had the 5cyl RS/TTRS lump!

 

[Steven103]

Odd.

Seen a few in real life and they look brilliant.

Manages to look bizarrely proportioned and a bit tacky (gloss tailgate insert, gloss seat back etc not for me) in these pictures.

 

[aucky]

Golf R.

 

[Chris V6 255]

Future classic without a doubt.

 

[brisa4984]

my crystal ball says prices will dip to about 25k before they increase with these.

More or less what the CSL did then.

 

[Dave..]

Do want. Even in LHD

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Only 13 left in the UK as well, i'd guess the 5 sorn'd ones are tucked away show queens.

Not massively keen but I can see it being something collectors might be interested in down the line. Although at nearly £40k there is a big range of better cars to choose from on the market over this, especially when you're effectively talking about a Nissan GTR with a bit of spare change versus this!

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

I appreciate what you're saying but its not really about what else is out there for essentially 40k, is it?

19 were imported here, i doubt any of that remaining 12 or however many are left will really be used - these will mostly be destined to sit in garages, sadly!

 

[Addicted]

Yep, this argument always comes up with collectors stuff.

"OMG Its a ripoff, you can get so many better cars for the same money"

bla bla bla, the same has been said countless times vs the Clio V6's, and look how their prices are increasing.

It's a collectors car, not a drivers car (imo)

 

[cat171]

Those wheels!!! :fearscream: No thanks! I wasn't keen on the car when it was announced, and I'm still not now.

 

[Stefan.]

I like them, sat in one at the goodwood fos and thought it was nice!

Exactly this

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Double post

 

[Matt W]

There was one of these being abused around the 'ring back in October. Looked great being used properly!

 

[Gally]

I think people would be surprised just how insane that little car actually is. Journos were shocked at what they done with the car.

In RHD then they would have sold more. Maybe a ltd run of 500, 250 each.

 

[DrR]

Looks hideous

 

[Lal B3N]

Looks fantastic. Only A1 I would own.

I thought that too, remember it being mental power with a v5?

 

[daydotz]

I doubt theirs many left in the UK that company exported many out of the country

 

[daydotz]

Theirs only 13 left in the UK parklane exported 6 someone on here had one or family member irc

Would love to own all of them at some point.

Excluding the Mini, absolutely !

 

[Chris V6 255]

Nah, love the GP Works!
They are most definitely on the BucketList

That's awesome! Do love modern American muscle.

[CrippsCorner]

Properly love these... saw one in Paris. Was the first time I've seen the Eiffel Tower but couldn't care less when the Quattro drove past

 

[Welsh.Dan]

SAME!!! have you seen the hennesy mustang????

Ooooo. That's sexy.
I hired a mustang convertible for my Florida holiday, much to the delight of my Mrs [emoji11] .
It was just a poverty spec v6, and to be fair it was pants.... I did have it sideways pulling out from a waffle house though. Yeee haaaa! [emoji38]

Swerving way off topic..... sorry.

Audi is pretty awesome and a rare special edition etc, but not for that money! You'd have to be special to spend that much on it (or have enough cash where you wouldn't notice 40k missing from your account)

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

"I'd rather..."

"But its 40k"

I'd rather be banging Christina Hendricks than corpses from rough areas of Glasgow but thats the baby in the bonfire!

American muscle cars over a highly sought after seriously rare bit of German engineering - jesus wept!

 

[Welsh.Dan]

I'm just dribbling over some nice cars.
But if a comparison on rarity is to be made here in UK, I'd say there'll be about the same, if not less, Hennessey mustangs here.
On an engineering front.... erm... hmmm. It's got a big engine? [emoji9]

Hilarious isn't it, it's just deja vu all over again xD
