1989 Audi Coupe Quattro, 2226cc. Registration number G323 JWA. Vin number WAUZZZ8BZKA011711. Engine number KV060682.
Cereal-box car design may have been all the rage in 1979 when the previous generation of Audi coupes were designed, but come 1989, customers were after shapes a little more organic. With sleek sporting rivals like the Vauxhall Calibra and Nissan 200SX arriving on the market, the Audi Coupe was starting to look distinctly yesterday's news. The arrival of the B3 series car in 1989 changed all that.
Unlike the Coupe before it, which from the mid point forward was virtually indistinguishable from the 90 saloon, the hatchback B3 Coupe shared very little sheet metal with the equivalent 90 saloon. Similarly, it was a very different from its coupe predecessor. All the body panels were fully galvanized for rust prevention. The five-cylinder engine remained, but there was no turbo option. Instead, the new 170bhp 20-valve engine made power with fully electronic multi-port fuel injection and four valves per cylinder.
JWA was bought by Mr Wood from Gilders of Sheffield and serviced by them up until 1999 at 91,108 miles, then Audi Dave took over the next three stamps in the book until 2003 at 12,427 miles. There is an MOT on file in 2010 at 124,047, today it is 124,283. Our vendor bought it in 2013 with an engine issue, it ran for a bit and then cut out, he tried several routes to solve it but then it has been left at a local garage for the last 3 years.
Sold with the V5C, service history and one key.
