I went and had a look at this car yesterday. I'm pretty keen on another interesting Audi at some stage and this ticks the boxes. The current owner is out of his depth and it has not been well cared for the in last couple of years from what I can see. If anyone wants any info on it PM me. Interestingly VCDS cannot find the ECU on this car. Not sure if that is normal on the MTM 286 cars or perhaps it's had further modification? I recall my old mechanic was looking after one of these (Euroworks) and Torque were doing some tuning work on it. Could be this car I guess, but more than likely not.

At a guess I would say it the tuned car your mechanic spoke about would be Andy H's car ^

No it wasn't as far as I remember, but I could be wrong about that too! I did actually see it at the time and I don't think it was red.

There was another green 286 Avant on TM last week. Looks like it has sold.

Cameron Brodie told me he did a few MTM conversions when he was at Continental Cars. I guess most/all of the non-body kit cars were converted after delivery to their owners.

It looked like a dog. Interior was scummy as damn

286hp wagon for $3600 though. I would have been all over it if I had the money

I actually just got given a scanned PDF copy of the Mark Petch autonews article about these cars.

It seems the most expensive option was priced at $120,000 back in 1996.

Any chance of uploading to a cloud drive and putting a link here?

If this thing has a 40mm suspension drop then the original car must have been based on a cartoon. It's not exactly low

Trying to get an electronic copy, can you PM your email address and i'll send it to you to post up.

Curious to see that the A4 on TM doesn't have mtm badges?

Thanks for the PDF slowmo. A scanned copy of a fax so yeah not great quality! It can be viewed here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/gnj7zftn6h5ikdp/Audi%20A4%201.8TQ%20MTM%20Scan%2020160419085507.pdf?dl=0

Just reflecting on the above article, Audi quattros had a lot of mana back then - they were considered something special.
