Audi Coupe GTi 2d (86) (1987/E) Owner Review

Economy
Value
Great overall performance for the money.
Costs
You need to be a good DIY'er as the franchises have forgotten how to maintain these.

On the road
Driving
Almost unbeatable through the curves, great steering feedback.
Performance
A swift car, 5 cylinder torque is very nice and available from low rpm.

Living with it
Reliability
Never had a problem in five years, like any car must be maintained regularly to give the best service.
Image
Rather dated, but still grabs attention. It will become a collectors item along with the quattro's
Comfort
For a car with such good handling the ride is very compliant. Cabin is functional rather than luxurious.
-
Security and Service
Security
No deadlocks, relatively easy to break into. Needs alarm or immobiliser fitted.
Service
Largely misunderstood, especially by the main dealers. Find a good specialist or do it yourself.
