It's a different story in Europe. If you liked FWD cars, there were very
few to choose from in the late '60s/early '70s. And Audis have always had a
reputation for reliability here in Europe.

Besides, from the view point of buying the Audi File book: I like to know
what came before the mid-'70s Audis, which was when I became interested in
them. So, I've ordered the book.
