Originally a Quattro RR 20-valve, this car has been substantially modified; in its creator's opinion being the car that Audi should have made when production of the original Quattro ceased in 1991. This car is now fitted with a 4.2-litre Audi RS4 V8 engine producing in excess of 350bhp with 290ft/lb of torque (as measured on a rolling road dynamometer). The engine revs to over 8,000rpm and drives via an Audi RS4 six-speed gearbox matched to the four-wheel-drive transmission. The engine has a MoTeC engine management system with mapping from MacKellar Racing, with enhanced cooling synced with the MoTeC ECU.
The running gear features three-way adjustable Proflex suspension front and rear, with up-rated road springs. The front brakes are large AP Racing callipers with vented discs, while the rears are standard but fitted with competition pads. The car has OZ wheels and Kumho track-day tyres, and is fitted with a rear roll cage with both standard and race seat belts.
The car's current specification and set up is the brainchild of Alec Cooper at Coopersport, who has 30 years rally and race preparation experience. According to the vendor, the impact of this car at a track day is remarkable: 'It makes a great noise and is very quick if driven hard. It is also a perfect way to learn how to drive quickly on a track because it is has four-wheel drive, goes fast, stops faster, and is extremely forgiving. It also drives like a manual-shift road car so the transition is easy. The MoTeC management system also has full data logging capability should one wish to get serious about track driving.' Offered with current MoT and a V5C registration Certificate, this is a unique vehicle with which to enjoy driving to the full.
