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 has climbed to a median of £28,750 in the UK market, posting a sharp 25 percent gain over the past twelve months. This sustained appreciation sits above inflation and signals genuine collector interest in the model, though the sample size of four transactions warrants measured interpretation of the trend's durability.
With only eight total sales tracked across the dataset, liquidity remains thin. This scarcity of transaction data cuts both ways: it underscores the car's relative rarity and collectible appeal, but also means buyers and sellers should expect narrow windows and potentially wider bid-ask spreads when positioning or liquidating positions.
The Ur-Quattro occupies a genuine collectibility tier, with a score of seven reflecting its historical significance and the 11,452 units produced worldwide. The model's status as an appreciating classic is well-established in the market, though moderate overall desirability suggests it lacks the universal cult following of certain contemporaries.
Cars transacting in this segment average 46,703 miles, a figure consistent with cherished ownership and light use typical of appreciating classics in their fourth decade. This mileage profile reinforces that condition variance—rather than age alone—will drive individual pricing within the band.
Looking forward, the market projects modest upside, with median values reaching approximately £31,490 within three years (a 9.5 percent rise) and £32,427 by year five (12.8 percent). These gains remain conservative relative to the recent twelve-month surge, suggesting the market is pricing in a deceleration of appreciation as the model matures further in collector consciousness.
