It's THE very car that Michelle Mouton raced at the Pikes Peak in 1985. The owners were running it at minimum boost given the track, and it was only a demo run and not competing, yet it was still making around 450bhp! They'd also removed the huge front wing to stop it hitting the bumps. To say this isn't an S1 shows how little you know, this was probably one of the highest spec S1's there was as it didn't have to adhere to as many rules as the Group B rally spec ones!

The car Michele drove at Pike's Peak had no huge front wing, what are you talking about ?

This car was recently out in Germany at the request of Audi for the 100 years of audi celebrations together with the first A2 quattro and the first quattro to ever do a rally- "The Algarve car"...See Youtube clips for "Donauring"..

We are taking the A2 this weekend to the Pendragon stages and the Geans Gold cup on Monday..come and see original Group B cars still being used!

Correct, a very hi spec S1 from 1985 Pikes Peak, Buggable - you are thinking of the Evolution 2 with the spoilers, in its day this car was producing 550bhp

Nice sound but I think the S1 is the "Monster". This is not the one. The S1 sounds even better ;-)
