1987 Audi 100 CD review from Australia and New Zealand
"Built for high mileages"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The windshield wiper mechanism is shot. To be fixed. Broken door handle on right rear door. Engine is distinctly tired now, but still runs smoothly and reliably.
General comments?
This car was purchased in the knowledge that it had a very limited life left. An A 2 B work hack basically. Has since surprised and delighted me with its comfort, reliability, and good build quality, never expected to be capable of reliable intercity trips, it's now regularly pressed into service, as it is a great long distance vehicle, and feels reliable. Body is totally rust free as the vehicle is fully galvanized and wax injected chassis.
