1992 Audi 80 review from UK and Ireland
"This car saved my life"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needed a new exhaust down pipe.
Needed a new catalytic converter at £200.
Needed a new mid section exhaust.
Needed new distributor cap and rotor arm.
Also needed new spark plug leads for mot.
General comments?
I had the carburettor model and it was not as quick as I thought it might be.
The interior for age was in great condition, almost as good as new.
As the base model it didn't have many toys which was a shame.
The handling of the car was great, despite the high miles it still drove like new.
Above all the car is built like a tank. I skidded on ice head on into a tree, then bounced off it into another one side on. I walked away with a dislocated clavicle and no bruises.
The door pillar came in slightly on the drivers side knocking me about a bit. The bonnet had a slight dent in it, though the bumper disintegrated.
Unfortunately the car is a write off. It had to be peeled off the tree!
