Nope, but a mate of mine once rang up looking for an audi coupe from the local classifieds and the folk on the other end were a Saudi Couple looking for some swinger action. :teehee:

Sorry only just seen this

I had an '86 2.3GT ( non quattro ) a few years ago

rear brake calipers stick on
Mine had a noisy thrust bearing
Distributors wear out leading to intermittent starting and eventually breakdown
Clutch reservoir is a single plastic moulding and they commonly break/leak and are stupid money from Audi - you'll be pleased to know that an E30 reservoir and clamp can be fitted in its place :wink:

Galvanised so shouldnt have any rot issues even now.

IIRC I had to run mine on super unleaded too.

Mine wasnt very fast and it was a 2.3 - I can imagine the 2.0 needing a fair stab of the loud pedal to get decent performance
