Is ridiculous. 500hp A1 anyone?

It's just the same as that W12 Golf - a pointless car which exists for no real purpose other than saying Look!. It wont go on sale.

However, it will most likely mean that a quattro A1 isn't too far off.

Perhaps with the introduction of the 5 door.

Those wheels are superb, bet they are a nightmare to clean

I think it looks fantastic apart from the wheels

Is it just me, or does it seem to have a side-ported exhaust in the picture? Yet on the AE site that isn't visible on the sill.

That AutoExpress article is about the A1 Quattro and it supposedly being released in the summer, not the Clubsport Quattro Concept, though they look the same.

Already announced. Along with comedy ridiculous pricetag.

I wouldn't put it past a tuning company to offer TT-RS engine conversions to achieve the same end result. Would cost a fortune, but i bet it would be great fun.
