Hi!
I have to give you some more info:
Here in Europe, as far as I know, all the 2.2/2.3 I5 engines have got
power varying from 133 hp (last model (91-94) 100 ) to 138 hp (early
5000 (78-85)) The versions "in between" have got 136 hp. 
When it comes to A/C, none of these cars has got it. It is only now,
the last 2-3 years that A/C has become standard equipment, even on
that expensive vehicles. In the mid-80s, A/C was only on about 1 of
250 sold Audi 100...
I'll check the ABS issue tomorrow. (it's 8:35pm here now)

Thanks
