Yes, they certainly were. I always did like the lines of the Fuego, and the
design was lightyears ahead of its time (the car was orrigionally produced
in 1979). I used to have half a dozen or so of them a few years back. I was
running my Fuego 1.6T right up until the turbo seals gave out and I got
hooked on the TQ bug. Even had a little website abck in the day at:

Still have 2 of them, though they are sadly off to the big scrap heap, I
just don't have time to maintain several quattros and the Renaults :(

Well off the Audi content....
