Description
Some designs arrive ahead of their time. Others simply refuse to age.
Penned under the direction of Walter de Silva, it remains one of the most resolved shapes Audi has ever produced - a car he himself once described as his most beautiful work. Coming from the man behind cars such as the Audi R8 and Alfa Romeo 156, that's not said lightly.
A proper four-seat convertible, with the ability to carry people in genuine comfort, yet still feel composed and refined on the move. Roof down, it delivers exactly what you want from a car like this - alfresco enjoyment without compromise. Roof up, it remains quiet, solid and usable year-round. It's that balance that makes it such an appealing proposition today.
Finished in Deep Sea Blue with a matching blue hood, this example leans fully into that understated, tonal aesthetic. It's a colour combination that feels deliberate rather than default - subtle, cohesive, and far more interesting than the usual greys and blacks. Paired with 5-spoke silver wheels and clean exterior detailing, it presents as a car that has been specified - and maintained - with care.
Inside, the cabin reflects Audi's "peak" era of design. Clear dials, intuitive controls - The Bang & Olufsen sound system adds a genuine lift in quality, delivering crisp, well-balanced audio whether the roof is up or down.
What sets this particular example apart is not just its specification, but its ownership.
Supplied with two previous owners prior to its current custodian, it has most recently been in the hands of someone whose attention to detail borders on obsessive - exactly the sort of person you hope has owned a car like this. The service history is fully stamped, with the most recent carried out on 20th January 2026 at 99,456 miles. All books, folders and keys are present.
More importantly, the recent maintenance speaks for itself. The timing chain - a significant and often deferred piece of work - has been replaced, alongside associated components. The wheels have been professionally refurbished by renowned Lepsons, the Audi amplifier has been repaired and future-proofed, and the roof has been detailed and treated. Further work includes a new boot seal, replacement rear springs, discs and pads, and a full interior refresh with the leather seats and door cards cleaned and recoloured.
It is, in every sense, sorted.
