> I feel it's the changing of times

"Dave, I strongly suspect there is a YouTube video regarding this."

It's not just a changing of the times - the simple, basic reason the 
list existed in the first place was an historical anomaly. Due to the 60 
Minutes hatchet job, a lot of us found ourselves able to buy mid-80s 
Audis on the cheap.

Repairs, however, did not come with that discount, and so a lot of 
people were struggling to learn how to do them themselves, and also how 
to deal with the various quirks of the brand. Enter the internet in the 
mid to late 90s.

Those people have mostly moved on, and the those cars were mostly 
crushed long ago. A decade ago. And the internet has vastly improved in 
the ways it can be a vehicle for information.

This list was literally dead for six months and I did not even notice. 
No one noticed. I got occasional spam on it, and an annual reminder of a 
charity bicycle ride.

The only thread to go on for more than two replies in years has been 
this one...
