Barn Find Rare 80s classic - bought 40 years ago, parked for 20! Will it run?

Barn Find Rare 80s classic - bought 40 years ago, parked for 20! Will it run? In this barnfind episode Jonny Smith ventures to a farm in rural Shropshire, where Pete Jones reveals he's owned this lesser known German 'hot saloon' since it was 4 years old. He shared it with his Dad, and then retired it to the garage in the early 2000s. There's a spare car of the same type next to it, and a pair of classic Range Rovers in the adjacent barn.

Got out on I-85 in Atlanta to 2-285... no brakes. Nothing. I said not a word. Drove back in the rain. $1000 for the car became $400. I drove it home to the mountains of NC and fixed it over the weekend. I kept a box of door handle kits in the trunk. I could fix them pdq.

For a few years from about ‘98-03 I had a 1983 80 Quattro…what is referred to as the KK engined car, with the 5 cylinder 2144cc engine…what a fantastic car to drive. Same colour as the car in this video. I really wish I hadn’t got rid of it….so rare now.

[@BillyWatersIE]

I was driven to school in the mid 1980s in one of these. My friends father had one and he drove it like he was being chased by the police every single morning.

[@davegrindey7823]

Loved this. Real trip down memory lane. I had TEH 457X, a 1981 quad headlight gun metal Coupe GT, followed by a 2.2 coupe ‘platinum blue’ double headlight D439 NBW like the 80 sport (which also had the internal audi coupe window stickers), and finally a red ur quattro 2.1 10v D279 RKJ with split rim gold BBS wheels, which had quattro in the rear windows. ❤ this episode

[@syedkashaf667]

Amazing how quickly it started given the length of time that it was sitting. Testament to how well they are built!

[@James-gf9jl]

I owned a 80 sport of the same year back in the early 90s. In red which, I think, was the most popular colour at that time but used to go a bit flat over the years. Galvanised, which was a big plus-point. That lovely long-stroke GTi engine was a joy. I'd have one now as a daily driver.

[@hughmarcus1]

This was an interesting watch. I had 2 new Golf Turbo Diesels, one in 86 the 2nd in 87. In 88 when our 3rd child came along I decided I couldn’t afford to run a new car any more. The diesel Golf was so popular that the VW dealership bought it back off me for a good price. While I tried to find a decent used car they loaned me a red one of those 80s. It was a lovely thing to drive, but in the end I chose practicality & went for a Passat estate. I can still remember the smile that resulted from touring around in that Audi. 👍

We had these in the States but they were 4000s - my father in law had a 1986 4000S Quattro Sedan, in line 5 cylinder engine, locking diffs and 5 speed manual, fully optioned in dark graphite over black leather. FANTASTIC car, virtually unstoppable in any road conditions or inclement weather. And yes, they are now very rare. LOVE these cars!

[@georgebookercompilation7486]

I knew it was an 80 sport from the quick glimpse through the side of the garage, liked the look of these more than the coupe

[@sharpgage6512]

these 80 sports were not anywhere near as well known as xr3i , gti, sri's back in the day but to me thay were far better in every way, very fast, spacey, comfatable and soild build quality. looked great too.

[@affordablevs]

Wow what a thing ! I remember being 14 and a family friend of my dad's pulled up in a grey one of these and we all thought it was such a piece of prestige sportiness at the time. Think about it everyone else's dad including mine were running cortinas, cavaliers, allegro 's etc... and then this pulls up! Thanks for keeping bringing that nostalgia back! Top episode.

There’s a 1984 80 Sport parked up outside a disused petrol station about a 10 minute drive from my house, it’s been sat there easily 20+ years. I’m very tempted to put a note through the door of the house next to it asking if I can buy it…

Great Jonny, fond memories came flooding back. I used to own an almost identical 80 sport on a C plate, mine had the tweet style cheque interior. A bit of a wolf in sheep’s clothing back in the day.

In 1996 I had a 1990 80 sport as a taxi in Newcastle. Same lump as an 8v golf gti and it was a beautiful pearlescent blue and came with the gauges in the centre console and split rim alloys the same as a Quattro. So smooth and quick. I loved it.

[@TheLateBrakeShow]

That's a very slick taxi. I bet it did a lot of miles.

[@darrenmechen1136]

@@TheLateBrakeShow unfortunately not as it was crashed into not long after I got it and I was gutted,so it was de-taxied, repaired and sold on and replaced by a cavalier Gsi 16v (glacier white, lovely) which was even quicker, especially after I tweaked it a bit with a few mods 😉. That taxiied for 2 years, back when we could afford to run taxis on petrol.

Wow. One of the best cars I ever owned . Owned a red C plate Audi 80 sport in 1991 I think. As a young lad it was a seriously fast, smooth drive. I remember the gear change was so slick and it had a beautiful factory smell inside. The 3 gauges made it even more sporty . I recall it's had brown tweed cloth seats? Not sure now ... Either way I loved it and it made its mark as I've owned way too many cars that didn't. When it was jet washed ....just magic to watch!!!

[@Terence-mk9jh]

I loved this one. i had an 80SC from the same year in metallic green and put about 250,000 miles on it before she was finally scrapped at 350,000 miles. It was probably the most reliable car I have ever owned and I can only remember replacing one light switch. Other than that it was unbreakable and served me so well. I do remember that the headlights were really dim so I can understand why the spots were fitted.

[@markschofield3563]

I had a Y reg one of these from 95-2000 EVH849Y. Coupe cookie cutter alloys and no side rubbing strips. Model launched to celebrate Audis rallying success. 1.8dz engine code and only difference was a finned alloy sump instead of a steel one on the golf. I’d love another! Brilliant to see and good luck!

[@deliawolfe]

Thank you, Jonny, for this easy and unruffled re-animation of this Giugiaro-designed classic. The four-door model and Coupe are the essence of Rallying in the mid 1980s and here in North America sales reflected their popularity/practicality. I was surprised to read the seemingly modest horsepower figures on the screen, but as I recall, 110-130 horsepower was typical for cars in this era. This one stands out in all its stickered and bespoilered glory. Love the Ronal wheels and Rally lights, too!

If something went wrong, couldn't beg buy or steal parts, had to be ordered. Compared to the basic aussie 6 of any brand, where we would go to the rubbish dump, rummage in any shed and any auto store, they were a pain to find even simple parts for.
