1991 Audi 80 Sport review from UK and Ireland

"Fast and reliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Front dampers failed at around 135000.

Front wheel bearings at the same time.

Idling valve at 140000. Intermittent fault causing stalling and failure to idle.

Various hoses worn and needed replacing.

General comments?

This car was a luxury to drive. Electric everything. The sport kit includes a spoiler, wide tyres and lowered+stiffened suspension. Great handling, but a lot of road noise.

Tendency to under steer when pushed hard because of heavy nose. Also brakes were not quite up to very heavy driving and prone to overheating despite being disc front and back.

Due to the sheer weight of the car it was somewhat slow to accelerate from low speeds. However once it's rolling and the RPM's are above 3000 or so it can move some.

However it will comfortably cruise at 110MPH+ on a motorway and feel as solid as a rock.

Reliable, never let me down really, despite being mistreated quite often. How many cars would survive aspirating about a litre of the Irish sea through the air intake? The engine still ran fine after that incident.

Insurance expensive.

Unfortunately a unlucky low speed front collision meant that the car was never the same again.
