The Convertible was a very aspirational car from very early on in its life and got the Audi brand in front of a wider audience than just the motorsport fraternity. The pivotal point for this car though was Princess Diana choosing one as her daily driver in 1994. She went for the 2.3 Automatic and took delivery of it in March of that year. Virtually every time she was photographed over the next few months in and around London she was never far away from the Audi and the young Princes were often sat in the back with the hood folded down.

The Cabriolet signed off with a Final Edition in late 1999 with the last few registered in early 2000 on a W plate. The Final Edition was a full specification version, as you would expect, with equipment such as full leather upholstery, 17" alloys and additional specification over the standard car of metallic paint, wood dash inserts, CD auto-changer, wind deflector and on-board computer and a price tag of around £31,000.
