Two years ago, I bought a 86 4000 Quattro with 170k miles on it.
At the time I thought I might be nuts too.

Two years later, the car is driving and running fine. Mileage is unknown
(broken odometer) but I would guess around 215k.

Audi drive trains seem to last forever. If the car is in good general condition
(good body, shocks, supension parts, etc.) and the prices is right
(I paid $2100 two years ago) I'd say go for it!
