Audi 80 Saloon 1.9 TDi 4d (1993/L) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Cheap to buy, but values fading. Very spartan in standard trim.
Costs
Audi dealers expensive. Private specialists help keep costs down.
-
On the road
Driving
Like a barge. Heavy, with dull, lifeless steering.
Performance
Not too bad for a fairly old tech diesel engine. 115 mph.
-
Living with it
Reliability
What do you expect, it"s German!
Image
Nondescript and boring. If you want image, buy a 3-Series.
Comfort
Very cramped for a big car. Seats poor.
-
Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser as standard. I expect more from a small exec.
Service
Dealers very helpful, but very expensive.
