1991 Audi V8 Quattro review from North America
"Depreciates like a rock, so used is a great bargin"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hydraulic leak, replaced battery, replaced radio twice (chronic problem), Heated seat for driver not working, power window in left rear not working, replaced oxygen sensor, check engine light comes on after driving over one hour, ABS light is on - no ABS, oil leaking slightly from the rear main seal.
General comments?
After driving well over one-hundred thousand miles on this car, I still love it. I have the sport seats, so it is a dream to drive. No low-end power, but does scoot when the RPMs exceed 3,500. Great road car. Usually gets around 25 to 27 MPG on regular fuel.
