Yeah, and there's always the type 81 vs 85 discussion. I've seen a letter
from Audi AG stating that FWD Coupés are type 81 cars. However, there's a
factory technical drawing of the Coupé body (a copy of which is next to me
on the couch), dated December 1979, carrying the legend
'Zulassungszeichnung Coupé Typ 85, Teil-nr 855 000 111'.

Errr... right.
