Dampers and brake calipers failed at just 1000km.
Both engine and generator belts failed at 9000km.
Heater failed in cold winter.
Cheap as dirt, but not even an average ride.
1.8.i engine has only 100 Hp, which makes highway driving and any maneuver uncomfortable.
3-step automatic transmission is outdated.
Bad handling above 100 km/h, mostly because of light weight.
Firstly the car you speak of is not a Sport as they do not come in automatic, secondly the only automatic AUDI 80 of that year was the 2L non sport. The Audi S80 is nothing like what you described. It has 126bhp, is very quick and smooth a 130mph. These cars fill the clock very quickly and because it's a heavy car it sticks to the road resulting in excellent handling. Please do not display your ignorance of classic cars. I have three of these and they're all great.
