Search for an honest opinion

[Ed Kellock]

I think you're already driving it.  But after the 4kq, a V8? 
(ducking)  But seriously, I find them to be more straightforward to
work on than the turbo cars and depending on which turbo car one might
compare to, the V8 has better access for the most part.  Just about
every V8 for sale nowadays is priced under 10k.  Do you do your own
work?  If not, then I can't think of any other Audi that would be
cheaper to keep running than the 4kq.

I do not have the time to repair it myself and don't think it is worth putting that much money into the car.  So, as I look for a replacement (not a daily driver) I'm wondering what are the most reliable Audi models?  I would like to spend less than $10,000 and not have something that I have to take to the shop frequently and cost me in frequent repairs.  But then again, if this is my goal, should I forget Audi altogether even though I will probably not find anything else that handles like a Quattro?
