Audi RS2 Avant: What makes it so special?

When it was launched in 1994, the Audi RS2 Avant was the world's fastest production estate car. Fast forward to 2020 and, while there might be much faster estates on sale, the RS2 Avant still feels very special. Dan Prosser gets behind the wheel of Audi UK's pristine heritage RS2 Avant to find out what all the fuss is about.

Nice video as usual from Dan. I knew it had a a Porsche influence, I didn't realise it was basically a Porsche in an Audi body. Lol

A great comparison to this would be a golf r estate (sameish power, size). Would love to see that to see how you think things have moved on in like 25yrs.

I can't find the video now, but I know I've seen a video with Passat R36 and RS2.

Fantastic job Dan. Always love your honesty and the way you describe the driving experience. Great work

The performance figures on this are very comparable to a Golf R estate or Seat Leon Cupra estate, would be interesting to see a back to back comparison & drag race to see how much of a difference 20 years of progress actually makes

Just wanted to say what a clean example, then I read the description why :)

I love this and don't even know why. Younger drivers wouldn't look twice at it because it's an estate but as you get older you realize, although estates are a bit boring... this one isn't. Same with the Volvo 850 T-5R Estate... the wheels alone on that car.

Wasn’t the RS 6 in earlier iterations that were understeery and wallowy but RS2 of this era were much more engaging- great drive review Dan

Ya those c6 rs6s were titanics. Heavy car and a twin turbo v8 that sat 65 meters infront of the front axles.

These avants are much better than our current SUVs. Bring the wagons.

Believe it or not, it is the correct pronounciation. I spent years pronouncing it 'Porsh', but alas during a factory visit years ago, I was corrected, and so have had to begrudgingly pronounce it 'Porscha' too (even if it still sounds wrong!). Trust me mate...... I wish it was wrong! 😕
