Audi Coupe GTi 2d (86) (1988/E) Owner Review

Economy
Value
I have owned one for 10 years and it still makes me grin when I open up on a good safe road.
Costs
Buy from a non-franchised supplier (German, Swedish and French are the best.)

Better than many new Audis. Upgrade the suspension for better road-holding.

Lovely pull from 3000 RPM in 3rd gear.

I burnt the clutch out fording a river! just after I bought it, It's never let me down. Use synthetic oil.
