RS246.com Forum :: The World's #1 Audi R, S and RS Enthusiast Community

Hey guys, how about a thread of your very 1st Audi, with pics if possible?

My 1st Audi was the AUDI 80GT (100ps) I purchased new in 1975 for the princely sum of £2,800. A year later I bought the fuel injected version (pictured) with 110ps (the same engine subsequently used by the Mk1 Golf Gti).

Brilliant handling, great economy & blindingly quick. The RS4 equivalent of the 70's with Recaro seats too.

Enjoy.

She looks awesome! just love retro VAG cars, wonder where she is now?

Thanks.

I would buy it instantly, provided of course it was in good nick. I saw one of these advertised recently for £2,800!!! That's good residuals...

The not quite so iconic Audi S2...

This car convereted me to the Audi marque although I'd driven 4WD turbocharged cars for a good few years prior to owning this car.

I sold it to a guy on http://www.S2Forum.com with 195000 miles on the clock and its still going strong I believe as a stripped down track weapon.

Whilst the V8 rumble of a B7 is great, I personally am just as enamoured with the inline 5 noise which forever evokes memories of the S1.

Nice pic of a car that was really fashionable in it's heydeys, and still.

That 5 really was great, enjoyed it on my RS2 but was introduced to it on the Audi 100 Avant CD5E - anyone remember that?

Technically my first Audi was an A2 TDI company car, amazing car, have bought 2 more since....but here is the first Audi I bought and owned

Bought it once I graduated and kept it for 2 years, loved it....1.8T 163bhp but as earnings increased, so did the desire for more horses!

Nice looking car

The A2 is a real classy small car. and a future classic IMO.

I have a 2004 1.6 fsi in black. It's looks, IMO, are timeless. Just compare with the equivalent Merc A Class, BMW 1 series. And no manufacturer will ever make an aluminium chassis car at that price point again.

When I bought my car I was looking for a tdi with leather seats, the full length panoramic sunroof and I believe some also had the sat-nav - that was a dream spec, my car has none of those great features.

The A1, IMO, will increase the appeal of the A2.

1.6FSI is a great choice, my gfriend has a FSI colour storm in Misano, great looking car

I had a 1.4 TDI colour storm in Imola. It had full black leather, heated front seats, lumber, opensky roof, x4 e/w, DIS, headlight washers, auto dim mirrors, 17" wheels, cruise control & I had the RNSE unit retro fitted.

The best A2 in the UK by a stretch if you could stomach the yellow...only sold it to fund the RS 4 !

Respect ..

That's a perfect spec. I did see one almost that spec, but red leather,not my choice.

and here it is

Thanks, really appreciate the trouble taken to post these pics . Hopefully this will encourage other forum members to post pics of their 1st Audi's


What a great interior for a car of that vintage & size.

Have not seen those wheels before - standard Audi?

I do see what you mean about the colour, an acquired taste .

the wheels are Audi Allroad replica's...quite rare, but a nice change to the standard "RS 4" type normally found in an A2

the colour! is like marmite! but it quite suited the quirky nature of the car...and amazingly enough, I used to see one identical on my daily trip to work, what are the chances!
