Oh... you mean the Audi S2 Quattro? Dynoed at a genuine 308bhp making it one of the most powerful cars there!

I used to have an S2. Phenomenal car, but not as scary as the TVR.

I've had 2 Audi S2's.

They are superb cars, the first one I bought was 345 BHP and never gave me even 1 problem in 14 months. The 2nd, had an engine conversion upgrade and was 421 BHP.. on the motorway I could keep up with my best friends Ferrari Modena. I still testify that it's the fastest car I have owned point to point - especially on the motorway. I have video footage at home hitting 175MPH in France. Unfortunately my 2nd S2 caused me endless agro, there was always something wrong with it and it cost a fortune to correct. Even the Audi main dealer couldn't fix half the issues!!! had to take it 150 miles to a specialist.

Brilliant car and very rare - I would buy another and stick it in my garage forever if I could find a well kept unmolested example.

A suggestion:
Bomber, next time you plan a happy accident like this, take a set of stepladders with you and take the photograph from a little higher to get that 'evo cover' feel.
Alternatively, a small troupe of Slavic gymnasts* can be invaluable in reaching the ideal viewpoint.
Other than that, nice shot.
