Race Retro Classic & Competition Car Sale 2020 21st - 23rd February 2020

www.silverstoneauctions.com 55 Competition Cars - Friday 21st February 2020 + buyer’s premium of 15% including VAT @ 20% and a Coupe back end, in exactly the same way as the originals, our vendor’s engineers set about building a usable re-creation of an SWB Quattro for time attack, hill climbs and sprints. With an outstanding reputation for his knowledge of all things Audi of the period, he set about creating this masterpiece. The power unit is a fully forged, 2.2-litre, 5-cylinder Porsche Development RS2 ADU engine fitted with JE pistons, Jamo Rods, Race-King shells, ARP Crank and Head bolts, Race Cams, ported and flowed CNC head, a solid engine cover, and an Auto-Verdi dry-sump set up. It has an S1 Borg Warner Turbo with a large intercooler, modified intake manifold, twin Bosch 044 pumps, a custom Swedish Header and all lines are Aeroquipped. Fresh cambelts and new gaskets throughout. Engine management is by Maxx Sport and, even running at low boost, will produce 500bhp. The engine was tuned and set-up by the legendary Keith Edwards who believes that it might be possible to take it up to 1,000bhp safely. The gearbox is a 01E 6-speed manual with a sequential shifter and a quick-release 90mm single piece prop shaft. The car is fitted with sold-mounted subframes with solid top-mounts, KW Coil-overs, Group B tubular T45 rose- jointed lower arms with poly bushes, poly-bushed roll-bars front and rear, S2 5x112 Hub Carriers, RS2 drive shafts, big brakes and Compomotive 16x9 S1 wheels wearing Hankook FIA slicks. The accuracy in replicating the original cars continues inside with the correct S1 dashboard with period VDO gauges, an internal electric steering pump supporting the quick rack, and hydraulic pedals with brake bias. In terms of motorsport legality, we understand that the FIA approved fitments within the car include the 8-point roll cage, ATL Fuel Cell, Sparco seats (2024), harnesses (2023), harness anchor plates, isolator, 4mm glass, Lifeline 4.5 extinguisher system (four under dash and four in the engine compartment) and an FIA approved hand-held extinguisher which is still in-date. The six big Bosch spotlights at the front, the H4 main beams and the smoked rear light lenses are all original. The car’s builders carefully researched the original’s external presentation and were keen to exactly replicate the look of the HB Audi Team cars from 1985. Although the HB Cigarettes decals and stickers were still available, every other sponsor and team logo had to be painted by hand, matching the colours and size, a laborious and expensive process but ultimately worth it. The Audi has an MOT (on road tyres) so, if required, could be driven to events and the newly issued MSA Passport is valid for sprints, hill-climbs, club rallies, the Festival of Speed etc. This is the best replication of a serious Group B car that we have seen. It’s a fire-breathing monster that spits and bangs just like they used to, the ground vibrates to the extent that you could measure it on the Richter Scale and your internal organs threaten to fall off their hangers. Completely addictive. 1987 Audi Quattro S1 Evo 2 Rally Re-creation LOT 228 More Images Lot 228 Bid On Lot 228
