B4Audi 80 wanted - Page 2

esseff · 07-07-17, 09:33 PM

I'm thinking about letting my red 1992 petrol B4 2.0E saloon go. It's got around 64000 genuine miles, a full 12 month's MoT and had the cambelt changed about 6000 miles ago. Alloy wheels, which could do with a refurb, a set of four steels with some very good tyres and a box of assorted spares from my last Audis. Oil, filter, thermostat and coolant recently replaced.
It suffers from the usual red to pink fade on one door and wing but there's a Meguiars kit in the boot to fix that. No rust at all but there's a couple of scuffs on a lower rear arch that were there when I bought it three years ago.
There's also a clatter from the lower rear cam belt cover when the engine's hot; I'm suspecting the bolts need tightening. I'd fix all these things myself but I don't have anywhere to work on it these days. :-(
I don't really want to sell her but as I'm only driving about eight miles a day now, it doesn't make sense to have a 2 litre when a Corsa or similar will do.
I'll take some pictures this weekend.

Nice one, yeah some pictures would be great thanks, and a couple of interior shots please

Barely run in at 64,000 miles sounds like a very promising prospect does that

Just tried Postimage, seeing as photobucket doesn't seem to be an option now.
There's some white glare on a couple of the images, which makes the paintwork look like a pigeon's toilet. The car was parked up for two years before I bought it so the finish needs a good Meguiar-ing as you can see. The car's never been smoked in while I've had it but there's a small burn on the back seat from the previous ownership and the usual wear on the driver's seat side padding underneath the cover. Trim is OK. I've never had the sun roof open. Let me know if you want any specific images.

Thanks, it doesn't look like its for me though despite the nice low mileage. Off to see an 80 Tomorrow so i might get lucky

probably to far away for you Dan, but i'd sell my 2.0e 80 avant. i've got a members thread on here, but the pics won't show due to photobucket no longer playing ball!

B4Dan · 10-07-17, 05:58 AM
