It’s amazing what you find in ebay these days; a 1984 Audi Quattro Treser Roadster which is believed to be the only Right Hand Drive to be in existence! According to the information provided by the seller, in all, Treser manufactured 39 units of this unique car. Apart from the foldaway hardtop roof which operates through pressing a switch on the B post (the whole operation takes around 20 seconds) Treser had also fiddled around with the turbocharged in-line 5 pushing output to 250Hp.

We agree that it’s no beauty but its sure is one hell of a serious head-turner and a part of European Automobile history of the “great-white” 80’s. According (again) to the seller, to buy this car new in 1984 cost a staggering 41144.25 BP -options included. The current bid (27-04) on ebay UK is 7.645 BP (about 15.400 USD or 11.300 EUR).

Great car. Guys I have a question, the differential lock controls, are they supposed to control the driving wheels. I mean when locked to Rear wheels, the car will be totally RWD ? If so, then why the hell Audi does not offer this these days ?
 
Neat car! I never knew this existed.

I wonder if the conversion added a lot of weight (which might explain the extra power)...
 

Audi

Audi AG is a German automotive manufacturer of luxury vehicles headquartered in Ingolstadt, Bavaria, Germany. A subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, the company’s origins date back to the early 20th century and the initial enterprises (Horch and the Audiwerke) founded by engineer August Horch (1868–1951). Two other manufacturers (DKW and Wanderer) also contributed to the foundation of Auto Union in 1932. The modern Audi era began in the 1960s, when Volkswagen acquired Auto Union from Daimler-Benz, and merged it with NSU Motorenwerke in 1969.
