Thanks so far with all the help!! (89 quattro 100)

[Perry, Christoper (EDS)]

That is being generous, I was going to say "RUN AWAY, RUN AWAY" (half
sarcastically).

In all seriousness, unless you have the time and the money to go through the
car bumper to bumper and fix a couple of large problems and a million little
ones, don't buy it.  Without service records you are playing Russian
roulette, it may run for a week - it may run for 10 years.

I'm really not trying to rain on any parades, I've owned and driven nothing
but Audi's (1 VW) since 1975.  I am comfortable with their systems and
idiosyncrasies, I have reliable and _Cheap_ parts sources, and I do all my
own work.  This has saved me big$$ owning Audi's.  If you have to pay
someone else to do work on it, your $2000.00 car may turn into a $5,000 car
or more.

My .02.  I really do love these cars, people have told me I'm nuts!
