Ok…if you want to make an impression at the next Cars & Coffee or Audi Club HPDE event, I don’t think you could go wrong with this. This is an Audi S1 E2 Pikes Peak replica. It has raced all over the UK, Europe, and yes, even Pikes Peak. Here’s the ad:

Wheels Speedlines
This car is something very special I advise you to come see this car in the flesh to get maximum appreciation.
Price is £295,000
So this S1 E2 has run Pikes Peak and that pretty much sells it for me. Now only if I could scrape up £295,000 ($335,849 USD). Still, quite a bargain against Audi’s Walter Röhrl S1 E2 Pikes Peak which has to be valued in the millions. If you want to make a splash at the next gathering, you can find this PikesPeak HERE.
