An 80 Sport in 1985? Any pics?

cant remember the reg but this 100 is identical to a 1983 100 cd that was for sale in a wee place called 'oban' early last year if I recall even the down to the alloys,,,, pity no pics of the rear as the 1 in oban had a mark on the bootlid where a hungry horse got at it

This isn't too far away from where I live, I'll see if he still has it and go have a look this week.

Just up the road from me - would be an ideal garage partner for mine. Having checked DVLA database, it hasn't been on the road for 21 years!!!

Remember it well, a lot of money for what it was.

In 1983 there were 3 100's available IMHO
100CC
100CS
100CD
Also no quattro badge on the grill

Do we know if this is a quattro?

100% not a quattro. The CS was a short lived spec above the CC, but below the CD. The '85 Model Year saw the quattro introduced, on B Plates, and were called CS quattro. This is were the confusion maybe.
Still an interesting find as is, being an early Y Plate one owner car. Got to be worth preserving?

Definitely worth saving if it's in any way decent nick, the fact that it hasn't been on the road in 21 years is a bit of an eye opener, I'm curious enough though to take a trip down there to give it a good once over. Pity she's not quattro, though I would have thought this guy would know what he has, unless she was badged I wouldn't say it's a quattro either.
