1991 Audi 100 E 2.0 petrol
Summary:
Very nice
Faults:
Lots, but it is older now with very high mileage. The engine and transmission have been solid and always cared for. The major mechanicals have been replaced (exhaust, suspension, brake, etc) and there is no major rust but the paintwork is really faded. Kept as a second car. Never broke down on me but had some annoying electrical issues.
General Comments:
Classic Audi 100 executive saloon - love this car and had it a long time. Used to be my daily driver, but now kept as a second car / classic.
Very comfortable and smooth for its age. Great to look at, timeless styling. Still good to drive.
2.0 engine performs well while doing around 30 mpg. Have to use super unleaded - expensive, but it did not like the new "E10" fuel when I tried it!
Audi from this time period have a following for a reason - they are good to drive and solid cars if cared for.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Poor reliability? BMW, Mercedes, and very close in reliability nowadays, which isn't to say "awesome," but that is the price that you pay when you buy a German car. Consumer Reports doesn't lie... in initial quality, Audi is in fact quite a bit above the industry average.
