Audi 5000 non-turbo Quattro ?

[Kneale Brownson]

Friend of mine drove a nonturbo quattro S from, I believe, 1986.  He really 
liked that car as he's one of those folks who appreciate stability more 
than performance.  He lost the car in a house fire that burned up 
everything he owned except for the horse and boat in a remote barn.
