1990 Audi 100 2.3E quattro 2.3

Summary:

Fantastic

Faults:

Gearbox mountings have failed (and apparently this is reasonably common)

Fuel pump got noisy, so was changed.

General Comments:

Fantastic "fun" car to drive, faster than others imagine off lights, handles as it were on rails.

Loads of torque, supremely smooth comfortable mile muncher, and 130mph (English miles at that!) Top speed!

Economy is reasonable considering the beast weighs in at 1900Kg dry.

Overall I am left in a quandry-What do I replace it with when the time eventually comes?

Have to say-I love mine!

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

1990 Audi 100 Avant 2.3E

Summary:

High speed cruiser

Faults:

Thermostat needed replacing and the rubber seal was not replaced which subsequently had to be done (by me).

General Comments:

Lovely to drive. Quite quick but doesn't encourage you to drive fast except on the motorway.

Quite low gearing in top gear means that you can regain cruising speed quickly.

I have had 32-34mpg.

Large fuel tank means long range (500 miles) between fill ups, but it does cost a lot to fill.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
