Hi Maxim,

Sorry, my 1985 yearbook doesn't quote gear ratios. If you know which
gearbox the car has and if they didn't change it for later car, I can look
it up in the '86 book- though they didn't list an 80 quattro, just a 1.8
and a 1.8GT.
Top speed for the '85 Audi 80 quattro is listed as 193 km/h for the 136hp
2144cc version and 184 km/h for the 1.8 115hp version.

hope this helps-

Bye,

Tom

             be prepared for the occasional division by zero.
