1981 Audi Coupe GT5 review from UK and Ireland
"An enthusiasts dream"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My bonnet blew open (just after fixing the water pump so possibly my fault) causing snapped hinges and a broken screen.
General comments?
This car has had new uprated suspension fitted by myself when I got the car (£130 from a local secondhand dealer) it handles well. Goes better than the boy racers Saxo VTR's, recently towed a boat 350 miles to Cornwall and back (with only a flat tire on the trailer) The car is bright yellow and has been nicknamed Louis the Lemon.
