Marque analyst note

The Audi Quattro Ur is currently trading at a median of £28,750 in the UK market, with a three-year base projection to £31,490 (up 9.5%) and a five-year projection to £32,427 (up 12.8%).

Transaction volume remains thin, with only four sales recorded in the past twelve months against a total tracked sample of eight cars. This limited liquidity reflects the model's niche appeal and the relatively modest collector base for Ur-generation Quattros at present.

The model sits in the appreciating classic category with a collectibility score of 7, supported by production of 11,452 units. While this makes it less rare than contemporary supercars, the Quattro Ur's engineering significance and pioneer status in four-wheel-drive performance have secured its standing as highly collectible.

Cars turning over in the market show a typical mileage of around 46,703 miles, suggesting most examples have been reasonably well maintained and driven rather than preserved as show pieces. This moderate use level is consistent with the model's evolution from period workhorse to respected classic.

The absence of active listings in the current market aligns with the thin liquidity picture, indicating that supply remains constrained. Buyers seeking an example may face extended search periods, though the steady projected appreciation supports patience in sourcing a well-kept car.

The modest appreciation trajectory over the next five years reflects consensus that these cars occupy a stable but not explosive segment of the classic market. Desirability remains moderate rather than intense, suggesting the Quattro Ur will continue its gradual revaluation without dramatic swings.
