The Appeal

Audi knows a thing or two about high-performance estates, and it's fair to say that the original S6 Avant was a triumph. Taking the new Audi 100 replacement, the A6, and dropping in a Quattro-esque 2.2-litre 20v five-cylinder turbocharged engine, this was one seriously quick wagon, especially when paired with a five-speed manual gearbox.

The 1995 Audi S6 C4/4A9 Avant is a rare gem, especially in this US specification. With its powerful AAN engine producing 230PS and a 5-speed manual gearbox, this 7-seater offers a thrilling driving experience. It stands out due for its originality and having been owned by one family since new and imported from the USA to Poland. It remains in factory spec, with no motorsport history or modifications, except for an ABT end muffler from the '90s. The car's impressive history and regular servicing make it a worthy consideration for any fast estate enthusiast.
