One of only 295 right-hand drive UK-cars, this 20-valve RR is on offer from long term ownership after much recent expenditure. . The Audi Quattro may not have been the first four-wheel drive production car (that honour belongs to the 1966 Jensen Interceptor FF), but its place in history is assured. Thanks in no small part to its enormous rallying success, the Quattro popularized all-wheel drive and is now regarded as one of the most influential and important sports cars of the 1980s.
By the time the 20V (RR) arrived in 1990, the crude cable-operated 50:50 split differential had been replaced with a much more advanced Torsen (torque sensing) diff and the engine had been uprated with double overhead camshafts and a larger 2,226cc capacity, upping power to 217bhp. Supplied new by Audi Main Dealer Keith Garages of Aylesbury on 28th October 1991, this Crystal Silver Audi Quattro 20V (RR) has only had two previous owners and has been with our vendor for ten years. Purchased by him in 2014 after an exhausting search to find the best and most original in the market place, as he started to build a Collection of 1990s icons.
The comprehensive history file contains multiple invoices from Audi specialists, the original sales invoice to the second owner in 1992 and many stamps in the original service book. In November 2021, it was subject to extensive mechanical work by SJH Motorsport Ltd to ensure it remained mechanically sound. The work included a full engine service including cambelt and pulley, water pump, alternator and power steering belts, new radiator core, rocker cover gasket, plugs, rotor arm, distributer cap, powder coat boost pipes, new manifold gaskets, water rail gaskets, fuel filter, clean injectors and flow test, powder coat fuel rail.
Both front and rear subframes were removed and painted and old bushes replaced. The front wishbones were refurbished and new ball joints fitted. All roll-bars and links were fitted with new bushes and new Koni dampers were fitted. New wheel bearings were fitted and new top mounts. All new bumps stops and drive shaft gaiters were fitted and the springs were repainted. The rear diff mountings were renewed together with the rear wishbones and ball joints. All differentials fluids were drained and refilled.
All the discs, pads and master cylinder were renewed, a new clutch fluid reservoir was fitted, the repainted sub-frames were Waxoyled, four-wheel alignment was checked and finally, all work was signed-off with a road test. The Audi Quattro 20V (RR) continues to be regarded as one of the most desirable modern classics and, with the vast expenditure lavished most recently on this cared-for example, it certainly warrants consideration.
