Coupe quattro?!

TurboBrookes · 05-05-10, 04:37 PM

Could someone explain why this is advertised as a Quatrro? The seller says it has 4wd etc but it doesnt have the usual flared wheel arches etc and also the engine.....doesnt seem very Turbo-ish to me...just looks like a GT5E engine? Or am showing off my poor knowledge again!

The Coupe Quattro is a non turbo model in type85 chassis. The UR Quattro Turbo (also known as Quattro Coupe) is the same car but with turbocharged engine and flared arches.

That is a quattro model just non turbo.

Ahhh,

Thats my old car that I sold to my mates lad about a month ago for £600. There are various issues with the car that have not been mentioned in the listing; handles like crap, pitches and rolls all over the place, brake fade, drivers seat bolster gone good style, headlights cant be alligned because threads have worn, cold start valve has been disconnected as u/s, exhaust end pipe has fallen off, central locking u/s, drivers seat stuck and can not be tipped forward, every panel has a dent or dink, whole exhaust system is bolted to the floor of the car causing loads of noise/vibration etc etc. I'm saying all this cause I am not happy he tried to sell it for £1250 starting bid on the bay last week and its not fair IMO for someone to buy the old girl thinking its nearly there condition wise. IMO its worth about what I sold it for, £600.
Oh, and brake fliud going somewhere but could not find the leak!!!

This is non turbo 2.2 engine, KV code I think. A standard Q model....You pehaps talk about WR engine comming from URQ, which has 10V turbo engine....Just my opinion

It's had a lot done but still looks like a project to me! But then my Coupe GT is a project!

Same as mine,but a coupe.2226cc KV engine 136 hp k-jetronic injection.
Don,t know why it,s loosing brake fluid,if it,s had back calipers replaced?
If it,s loosing fluid,it could be the clutch fluid?Clutch wears out,put strain on clutch master cylinder and seals go.End up with fluid on your shoes and can make hole in carpet.
If you,re interested,I,d ask more about the leak?
