1986 Audi 80 1.6 normally aspirated

Summary:

A workhorse who needs more attention than I would give!

Faults:

Driver's door Llck does not operate.

Oil leaks.

Clogged feeder pipe.

Water getting into the engine (hence blocked feeder pipe from sludge)!

Wheel bearings.

Shocks.

Dash lights and speedo not functioning.

Oil pressure valve malfunction.

Engine mounts.

Brakes grinding.

Seats are worn.

Heater/fan in car has stopped working.

Rear de-mister only works if the fog light is on.

Numerous CV boots gone!

General Comments:

But, I expect that from a car of this age.

It is fun to drive (needs power steering though!).

There is not a spot of rust on the entire car (great plus for a car of its age).

Very easy to work on.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

1986 Audi 80 CL 1.6 petrol

Faults:

In the last 4 years I have owned it, nothing major.

General Comments:

Very comfortable, quiet car with plenty of power when necessary and good economy. 90K on the clock and feels smoother than many new cars. Definitely recommended.
