Pre-Order Audi Quattro No.0 Rali Urbibel Algarve 1980 H. Mikkola - A. Hertz

Audi Quattro #0, entered by Audi Sport at the Rali Urbibel Algarve in 1980, driven by Hannu Mikkola with co-driver Arne Hertz. The car ran as the zero car, serving as a course opener rather than competing for a classified result. This event was part of the Quattro's early competitive outings, as Audi Sport used rallies in late 1980 to develop and demonstrate the revolutionary permanent all-wheel-drive system before its full World Rally Championship campaign. The turbocharged inline five-cylinder engine paired with quattro drivetrain fundamentally changed rally car design, eventually forcing a rethink of regulations and engineering across the sport.
