The C4 range of saloons and estates, produced between 1994-1997, was a complete redesign of the fifth generation Audi 100
On its debut, the S6 Avant was amongst the quickest German estates you could buy, hitting 60mph in 6.1 seconds on its way to 151mph
It featured a 227bhp, turbocharged 2.2-litre inline-five cylinder, a 6-speed manual gearbox and Audi’s well established Quattro all-wheel drive with the Torsen centre-differential
This is a very well presented, UK-supplied example in Crystal Silver with a Light Grey/Charcoal Grey leather interior
Fitted with the desirable 6-speed manual gearbox, it has covered just over 76,000 miles with our vendor and four former registered keepers
Full Audi main dealer service history bar one recent service with a recognised specialist
Substantial expenditure during the first lockdown including a full re-bush throughout, custom stainless-steel exhaust, new shocks and springs, new brakes and lines and a full cambelt service
