Audi 100S Coupe

The old 100S Coupes were beautiful cars. I think they were made from the
late 60s to the mid 70s. They looked very like some of the Aston Martins as
driven by James Bond. A friend of mine in Dublin, Ireland had three of
these in his family for a while, and another friend in Dublin had one during
my final year at college. They were performance cars in their day
(something like 0 - 60 in <10s and top speed of >110 from a 1.8 I4 engine).
I saw one for sale about 10 years ago in London for about GBP1200, but I was
too practical to buy it. I still regret it sometimes.
