I toyed with the idea of selling this car a while ago, the trouble is you get in it and go for a drive and it just wins you back over.
But the time has come that really it doesn't get used as much as it should, it needs a new home to continue my custodianship of it, but it will need to be a good home as the car is a peach.
I'll give you the spec first.
2.3 20v Audi 90.
Silver
Black leather interior
Original speedlines and a set of Coupe deep dish speedlines in good condition.
Forged wishbones.
276mm "G60" front brakes. With new Brembo disks.
New rear brakes.
New shocks.
Lowered (factory) sports suspension.
All electric windows.
Factory Air con.
Sports steering wheel.
Triple gauges.
Trip computer.
Outside temp gauge.
Stainless exhaust.
MOT circa 11 months left.
Tax circa 5 months left.
I suspect the list could go on and on, basically though the good points are virtually everything on the car is either in perfect working order or new, I did the cambelt when I got the car along with tensioners and water pump, it's got about 2 years left on it now.
Breezed through MOT just needing the usual pair of front drop links (took all of 5 mins to change, oh and he suggested doing the inner bushes on the forged wishbones too so they now wear genuine replacement bushes.
You could literally drive this car away and other than servicing not have to do a thing to it, I service it every 3k.
Usually these cars have some little quirks or foibles, knocking suspension, seized rear calipers, dodgy running engines. This has none. It's just a car you can jump in and enjoy. And that brings me to the fantastic thing about the car.
Yesterday I took the car out just for a fun drive, emptied all my rubbish out and just went out on one of my favourite roads, I forget how great this car is to drive, I had a 911 before it and to be honest in general A-B driving the 90 is as quick, the 911 would have run away over 100, but up to that point this car is seriously rapid, the handling helps which is absolutely sublime, wearing good quality shocks and the correct profile tyres it handles like a dream, amazing fun and those brakes are matched only by the 911 brakes.
Of course it has another side too, my other half often drives the car, she doesn't want quick or amazing handling/brakes, all she wants is to get safely from A-B without working too hard. But in "Clive" the journey can be as much fun or as calm and relaxing as you like!
I bought the car as a budget banger, it's better than that but at the same time can easily be run as such, £1500 isn't a lot for a car with nice presence and fantastic performance not to mention comfort and reliability, all I've spent on is preventative maintenance and upgrades, not had a single breakdown or unexpected problem!!
I have loads of bits and service items I will let go with the car, there are probably enough service bits to keep the car serviced for about 2-3 years.
Very close offers around the £1350 mark, but the car is worth 2k plus in bits due to the spec, I would never dream of breaking it, but likewise I won't sell it cheap to let someone else profit from breaking it either. If the worse comes to the worse I will transport wax and wrap it up down at my Dads for a few years because it will always come in handy.
As I'm sure you would expect I have 2 keys for it, the spare wheel and toolkit is all present as is the wheel cover, handbook etc. etc.
Best bet is anyone seriously interested give me a buzz and we can have a long chat about it.
This is your chance to own a very fun early 90's range topping sports saloon without any of the hassle that normally goes with them, I still have the magazine article comparing this car to the Saab Carlsson and Lancia 8.32.
Located just outside Driffield in East Yorks, will take part ex/swap on a nice 924 or early 944.
