1990 Audi 100 review from North America
"Great comfort and moderate performance are the norm for such an old car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The brakes were shot when it was purchased, but that can be probably expected of a car this age.
The wiring was terrible-- as a result the radio and headlights malfunctioned.
The transmission was starting to act up. Excessive noise plagued every start.
General comments?
This is a fast little car, once one has had time to accelerate.
Handling is slow and sometimes lethargic due to the vehicle's weight.
The cabin is extremely comfortable and well-arranged. It's even comfortable to nap in!
