1990 Audi 90 Quattro review from UK and Ireland
"She will be around when 2007 cars are long gone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear discs and pads replaced when I first had her, then nothing until this spring when the main radiator failed. I couldn't source the correct part. Audi UK had 10 in stock @ £345 each, guess what I told them. Instead I fitted one from an ordinary non quattro 90 and blanked off the pipes to the secondary radiator. She has run great all summer, pulling our trailer through the mountains of Wales and has never got hot. Question. What is the secondary supposed to do? Unless you live in Death Valley I don't see the need for it.
She is my third Audi and the best by a mile. 100% reliable, summer and winter, She is nearly 18 years old now, but going as strong as ever.
General comments?
Not much goes past us on the local Welsh roads; it's real fun watching the rest when snow is on the ground.
