1989 Audi 80 Audi E review from UK and Ireland
"Still up there-a classy aging lioness"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front suspension bushes all need replaced.
New clutch slave cylinder at 135k.
Complete new clutch, including fork, at 137k.
General comments?
Head-room a bit restrictive - I'm 6'1"
Boot space is compromised for anything other than a medium load. Split-folding seats would be very welcome.
Steering is very taught. With 195's and alloys you can easily throw it around-it's very forgiving and built on a sound chassis.
