    I am glad to see my 80 performed well, although the older Audis were
cracker boxes on wheels I see.  I have never checked any crash test results
for my 80.  I was wondering about getting an ABS transplant ready for my car
when I do the transmission swap.  Then I got thinking about basic safety,
crash test seems basic enough for me.  This was the only Audi info I could
find, earlier Audis that is.  For the proud new owner of the 2 door Dodge
Colt, may the q-lists prayers guide it out of harms way:-)

Alexander van Gerbig -- '88 Audi 80
