While we said goodbye to the Jon Olsson Audi RS6 DTM a few days ago, we can now say hello to its little brother. It's risen from the ashes, like that cute Baby Groot dancing in the pot at the end of Guardians of the Galaxy.
The Audi A1 you're enjoying belongs to Bourguignon, a dealership from the Netherlands. While it lacks the 231 horsepower engine of the S1 model, everything else about it is quite special. Haan Reclamewerk, a print company from the same corner of the world, designed this awesome urban camouflage theme to match the Audi RS6. It comes complete with Betsafe corporate logos and other graphics.
Audi fans will also be able to tell that this A1 facelift has been equipped with all the parts from the Audi Exclusive parts catalog. These include the wheels, roof rails and top box. While the S line kit adds some curb appeal, Xenon plus headlights have unfortunately been left out.
Jon Olsson's name is associated with the most famous Audi RS6 of the year. The skier drove a DTM-inspired Avant that had 1000 horsepower and features covered in 18-carat gold during the 2015 edition of the famous Gumball supercar rally.
After the event, the RS6 was sold to Dutch Auto Leitner, a company that usually deals in expensive and often very rare cars. Shortly after, it was seen being used as a daily driver by a woman and met a tragic end on the night of October 14. It was stopped at the Amsterdam Piet Hein tunnel by a van in which were some armed men.
These men threatened the cameraman and the owner, taking the RS6. Nobody was hurt, but the unique Audi was later found burned down to a crisp. Various reports have suggested that the thieves took the car without its starting key, which meant that once stopped, it would be stricken. That would have spelled trouble, considering the high-profile nature of this tuned machine.
