You could also get the Audi 100 (C4) with a 75 hp 1.6 engine for special
markets. And my friend Paul has a 1995 80 Avant with a 90 hp 2.0 engine
(brought
here from Belgium)

Yeah, newer Audi's sometimes have quit small engines. Some are really
underpowered (how about an 1.8 in an A6??)

Of course! They are collectible's even though they are bare bones, low
price,
cheap entry models. How long since you saw a 1976 Audi 50???

Actually, a few weeks ago at a meeting from another dutch Audi club! :)
They're quit funny. Got a picture from it...fully restored, painted in
bright orange!

But the one I REALLY want is a '75 100 Coupe S like this one:
