Quite a few of these in the UK - in fact a lot more than their turbo
brethern!
Because of our late introduction to stringent emission laws, these non-turbo
cars produce 136hp from the I5 2226cc engine, so reasonable (if not
exciting) performance is achieved. A friend of mine has a 1993 Audi 100
quattro (no turbo) - well over 100k miles and looks as if it is just out of
the showroom!
