Hi, here's my bought from the bay £260 audi 80 ,surprisingly everything inside works but it has a blowing exhaust and some other "quirks" that need sorting. For the age and the money what could possibly go wrong?!post-20722-0-14738200-1481480566_thumb.jpgpost-20722-0-04230500-1481480602_thumb.jpg

Welcome in fella. Looks like a good little parsnip that. Id definitely butter it and roast it on a sunday.

A mate of mine had one of these, really well built and comfortable and economical too, well bought.

Posted

Ill get some more pics up tomorrow after ive had a better poke about.

Posted

Still look pretty good don't they eh? Welcome aboard!

Top buyage. Welcome from the far side ex Audi owner  :-)

Solid cars those old Audis. When they stood for a quality car, not an indication you sell Double Glazing.

No pics today sadly ,its gashing down with rain here so ill have to probably wait for the weekend. On another note i thought id have a go at welding the blowing exhaust and just blew a hole in the fragile metal instead! Awesome, i can tell this is going to go well.

Good looking cars those 80s, I liked the previous square version too.  Fartha_Carlo had a lovely 'Y' plate Audi 80CD auto in metallic grey, always loved that car.

There is just something about them,i had a 1.8 carbed version of this a few years ago and always regretted selling, and when this came up i couldn't resist i didn't even need a car! But it is nice to have something shit your not paranoid about parking everywhere.

It's not shit, it's shite. There is a big difference!

This isn't bangernomics! It's better described as a beige version of Piston heads for poor people.

Fitted new thermostat today, got all the belts, top mounts and water pump to do tomorrow if time/daylight allow.

These are awesome. Feel like you can drive through walls

Wish someone told me that when I had my vectra.
