Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.

Marque analyst note

The Audi Quattro Ur is trading at a median of AUD $89,333 in the Australian market, up 25% year-on-year, though this signal comes with medium confidence given limited transaction data. No sales were tracked in the past 12 months, which suggests this segment operates on an infrequent, deal-by-deal basis rather than consistent market flow.

With 11,452 units produced, the Ur-Quattro occupies the middle ground of production scarcity—common enough that examples surface regularly, but not so abundant as to commoditize the model. It carries a "Highly Collectible" classification driven by its significance as Audi's first production four-wheel-drive performance car, though current desirability is marked as low, indicating buyer interest is not yet intense despite its historical importance.

The illiquidity rating reflects zero active listings and no transaction volume in the tracking period, a condition typical of models that change hands infrequently and often outside the conventional resale channels. Buyers and sellers of Ur-Quattros should expect extended holding periods and limited discovery mechanisms in the formal market.

The base projection anticipates AUD $151,252 over three years (69% appreciation) and AUD $180,430 over five years (102% appreciation), positioning the model for steady gains in line with broader classic Audi market recovery. These forecasts assume sustained interest in early quattro models as quattro's 50th anniversary narrative matures and collector focus shifts toward first-generation four-wheel-drive sports cars.
