The Appeal

At long last, Spring is in the air, so it's high time you get your hands on a convertible in readiness for the sunnier weather to come. And what better way to enjoy open-top motoring than in this lovely example of Audi's legendarily well-engineered 80 Cabriolet. Princess Diana had one, you know...

And what a pretty car it is too, especially this particularly tidy 1999 example in Hibiscus Red metallic. As you have no doubt observed from the photographs, this car is in lovely condition and the vendor confirms that everything works as it should.

Complete with a long MOT and fitted with a fresh set of Pirelli Cinturatos, this seldom-seen and very handsome cabriolet would be a superb addition to your driveway.

The History and Paperwork

Originally owned by a lady in London
Acquired by a retired couple in 2014 who covered only 3,000 miles over 8 years
Purchased by the current owner in 2022 at 72,100 miles
72,626 miles now indicated
The vendor informs us that some service history is available

The Condition

Bodywork in very good condition for its age; the vendor merely notes a very small mark on the passenger door and a small stone chip in the driver's side indicator lens
Underside very clean with no signs of corrosion noted by the vendor
All four alloy wheels present superbly
Four new new Pirelli Cinturato P7 tyres
Factory-fitted options include air conditioning, metallic paint (Hibiscus red), and power hood
All instruments are in full working order, as is the roof mechanism
Equipped with a CD autochanger
Ultimately, this is as a very clean example of this well-designed car

The Mechanics

2.6-litre V6 petrol
Four-speed automatic gearbox
No modifications, all as manufactured
No known faults to report; there are a couple of minor MOT advisories
The vendor notes that the Audi drives very well indeed
