Driving the Audi A1 quattro on snow does seem like a lot of fun, and you've acknowledged that about a month ago, but getting double DTM champions Timo Scheider behind the wheels makes it even more exciting to watch.
The two were paired by Audi in a somewhat different commercial meant to promote the world's biggest used car center, located in Munich, Germany, due to be opened this summer.
Don't expect for any kind of DTM-related stuff to be happening on site, because it has nothing to do with Scheider's driving in this clip. It's all about mud, drifting and inch-precision. It's rally style, baby, and Timo is what lucky fellow to be able to do that with a car limited to just 333 units.
The turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine seems to take it pretty well, and with its 252 HP the car is very close to World Rally Championship specifications.
Now watch Timo Scheider getting dirty with that all-wheel-drive Audi A1.
