V8 QUATTRO

[Todd Phenneger]

All the usual stuff of course,  Hyd. Leaks, Rack leaks,
suspension in good shape.  One thing is Very important though. 
Make SURE the Timing Belt has been changed if its due.  Its a
60k replacement.  (used to be 90k but was changed due to many
problems).  A fellow friend of mine (lister) had one blow at
like 70k.  Thats a vERY expensive proposition. And its a hard
belt to change (not to mention expensive).  Other than that, I
dont know of anything in particular. 
  DOH!  Yea, its an auto, get it checked out as well.
