1992 Audi 80 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

My car was ok when I bought it but had plenty of repairs done. Oxygen sensors, left catalysator, problems with electricity and finally the air con broke. Just to omuch money went to this car and I lost my nerves and get rid of it. Car is good to drice, very sturdy and nice to drive with automatic transmission. I had 2.6 liter v6 wich gave nice power too but used 16-19 liters of gas on my short trips to work so not good for short distances. Uses around 8-9 liters in highway.Aug 27, 2010

really nice to drive doesn`t feel like a big car when you are drivin it light steerin, but handbrake lever was a bit hard to pull up, but clutch, been hydraulic, was feather light and brakes, discs all round, were very good. Was very good handling even in the wet when I pushed it too far it was very easy to correct unlike my saab i am driving at the moment. Engine had a lot of complicated electrics for a diesel throttle sensors airflow meter etc that i didn`t expect to find on a car this age although i have since learned that these audis were very advanced at the time of manufactor, compared to newer diesels owned by my friends ie a 1997 diesel escort and mondeo had no ECU fitted but my audi did. On the plus side software can be downloaded from net for free to reset engine management light and a cable only cost £20 to connect it to my home computer. I think these audis are very good but mine was about worn out with over 180,000 miles on and no service history for about 100,000 of those miles. I would advise anyone looking to buy an audi TDI to get one with lower mileage and full service historyAug 16, 2009

Audi 80 2.0l 16v Sport Avant Probably got too much of a soft spot for thsi car as i was in the family got 10 years before I got it. Borrowed it some time before it finally came to me and loved it. A good jump from my Golf. From 213,000 - 240,000 miles in my hands, and a trip to the Nurburgring a few months before the end. Performance - When it was new, even new to the family, it was fast. Given some 10 years and 150,000 miles it was starting to drop off. Still fast and handled really well for an estate. Build Quality - 2 spot of rust bubbles no bigger than 2p piece in 15 years. Generally well build and solid car. Eventually Heater matrix was its downfall, engine still in a garage after it was scrapped. Apperance - Never dated in my opinion, always looked good on the road and still makes me smile to see a 2l 16v on the road. Cost of Ownership - Not cheap, but far from expensive. Probably expensive for my means at the time, Heater Matrix fitting cost too much hence it was scrapped for parts, consumables (discs/pads/tyree) were quite cheap, major parts a bit more expensive. 30-35 mpg on average. Fun Factor - Great fun, on track it handled better than msot estate cars and at the Nurburgring survived a spin in the wet although it lacked power up hill. 'Ring notes - fastest lap 11:13.6, spin at Kallenhard with poor rear tyres on 1st lap. Pointed out that "if it'll survive this, it'll survive forever" while on track. Reccomended as a cheap, well built load carrier. If it hadnt been the 3x the cost of the part to fix the heat matrix (£300 labour) i'd still be driving it.Sep 30, 2008

performance is what you would expect from a 2.8 Litre engine awsome Build is great full galvanized streel body so no rust at all after 15 years you might expect a few dents and rips but no immaculate inside and out £500 but worth £1500 Petrol though ouch grips the road like its life depends on it so at high speeds you can take a corner without the worry of you hitting the ditchJul 24, 2008
