A really brilliant iconic Audi coupe. New delivered on 23.04.1986 in Aachen and later the car went to Belgium where it was restored in 2015 in today's top condition. During the restoration, the car was painted in the original factory color Alpine White (L90E) along with the Ronal rims which gives the car a very nice look. The car features the popular 5-cylinder 2226CC engine, 5-speed manual transmission and the optional fully removable tilting sunroof. Revised cylinderhead with invoice available. An Audi Coupe is a rarity in this condition! Given the price increases of the original Quattro, the coupe should also be a very healthy investment.
Audi Automobilwerke GmbH Zwickau was founded by August Horch and his partners. In August 1928, the majority of shares in Audiwerke AG were acquired by Jørgen Rasmussen,the owner of Dampf-Kraft-Wagen (DKW) In 1932, Audi merged with Horch, DKW, and Wanderer, to form Auto Union. Auto Union used the four interlinked rings as their logo, the Audi badge today, representing these four brands.
After the war, Daimler-Benz had taken 100% holding in the Auto Union company by1959. By mid-sixties they had decided to sell to Volkswagen -a decision Mercedes must be regretting by now. Under VW control they took the two-stroke DKW F102, fitted it with a modern Mercedes designed four-stroke engine et voilá a new modern Audi had emerged. The rest, as they say, is history.
