• Didn't know that Audi officially built a group S car. By officially the rally team built the car with permission or knowledge. Though the Audi was a group B development, to make the quattro mid engined to beat the other mid engined 205 and S4. When Audi/vw people learnt about the quatro the project was ended.

    There are a couple of pictures of what looks like an S1 Quattro in existence but it's a mid engined test car pre-group S. The guy at the Audi museum suggests that it no longer exists

  • Admire how the rally team found the budget and built the car with no one higher up officially knowing. Then the vehicle was tested in the old eastern block so fewer people would know about it.
