1988 Audi 80 E review from Australia and New Zealand
"A very satisfying car to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Valve oil stem seals, oil cooler (fitted above oil filter). this lets oil into water system.
Door and roof liner falling off.
General comments?
This is the best car I have owned. cleaned up it looks good and not dated at all. It uses the 1st generation fuel injection system, not needing a computer so is very cheap and easy to maintain.
From service history I have obtained it is on its 1st clutch. Galvanised body, not a spot of rust. Have installed momo gear and steering kit. Very nice to drive, I prefer this car to my wifes BMW 318is.
