Developed jointly by Audi and Porsche, the RS2 combined a turbocharged 2.2-litre, 20-valve five-cylinder engine with a six-speed manual gearbox and quattro four-wheel drive, establishing the template for Audi’s subsequent RS models

Finished in Ragusa Green Metallic, this example was supplied new by AFN Isleworth Audi and retains its original book pack, including the handbook and service book, fully stamped up to 2008 and 133,983 miles

Purchased by its late owner in 2015 and subsequently entrusted to respected Audi specialists VRS Performance of Northampton for an extensive performance build

The 2.2-litre five-cylinder engine was completely stripped and rebuilt with forged pistons and connecting rods, together with a reworked cylinder head, uprated turbocharger, intercooler, fuelling, induction, exhaust and engine-management systems. A nitrous oxide system was also installed, with the completed package reportedly producing around 580bhp

The transmission and chassis received further supporting upgrades, whilst the cabin was fitted with front bucket seats and a half roll cage. The original rear seats have been retained and accompany the car

Accompanied by a good history file containing numerous receipts for maintenance and parts, with the VRS build also documented in two online videos, this is a particularly distinctive and extensively developed example of Audi’s landmark RS2 Avant

Viewing of this fantastic RS2 is imperative to fully appreciate the quality of works of VRS
