100 Years of Audi at Ingolstadt driving at the Donauring

[hansport]

By kind invitation from Audi, we (Hansport) were asked to participate in their 100 year celebration at Ingolstadt and so we decided to take a select few of our cars and eventually transported three Ex-Works factory rally car examples back to the factory, not only to show and shine, but also to drive alongside the greats at The Donauring which is just a few minutes from the Factory.

We brought The first ever audi quattro competition rally car, (yes- this car is the very first). It was debuted on the Algarve Rally in 1980 by Hannu Mikkola (IN-NE 3), a car which runs on the mechanical Pierburg injection system.

Also, we brought the first A2 quattro rally car of all time, (IN-NL 67) which debuted on The 1983 Corsican Rally with Mikkola - a car which was subsequenly also used in Mikkola's World Championship winning year.

Last, but by no means least, we brought the car which won Pikes Peak in 1985, with Michele Mouton (IN-NY 25). Michele still holds the record on Pikes Peak with this car and it was the baby of our turnout group for the Centenary.

Here are the first 5 photos and hope we have much more to follow:-
