Blimey, on UK plates, MOT'd. Pictures without the grille are a bit worrying (asked the question). Watchlisted anyway.

Grille is on place apparently, pics without it were taken after it was painted.

the air filter is missing ,  the engine hasn't been started in a long while and I have made no attempt to start it .

think there might be more than that missing.Shouldn't there be a brake accumulator where that spare coil sits ?

 

Still he only wants 35 grand for it.

It's probably above my pay grade, but had one bid on it at least, before it gets out of reach ;-)

Every day’s a school day, even Boxing Day. I stand corrected.

 

In that case, GIB.

I suspect you are thinking of the slightly later Audi 80 2.0E which was a 4 pot

That Romanian satellite channel will probably buy it, then cover it in homemade adverts and park it by the North Circular.

Apparently, these have got sodium filled valve stems, which, if you don't strip the engine after a long hibernation, have the habit of exploding when you try and fire it up..............

You suspect exactly right - in fact, I’ve got one.

They certainly have and it happens to biturbo's as well, the one I had a couple of years ago did it. The stems corrode and the heads drop off.

Sorry I'm a couple of days behind on this thread but I cant let this pass without comment. This is the exact model I want, a 613/4. Mainly because it shares half it's dashboard with my Favorit. Air vents, big buttons, ash tray, heater control. All the same. I'd be right at home in here.

Would prefer a darker colour and £18k is a bit steep for a big Favorit but still very much want.

Isn’t that Tatra a 613/3? I had a 613/4Mi which had the 220bhp fuel injected engine but I don’t remember the difference between the /3 and /4 carburettor versions
