Acccckkkk!!!!  Run away, run away quickly!!!   

I had an 86?( I have blotted it from my memory)  5000 sedan.  The day I got
it, used, the stering wheel locked and I had to replace the ignition
switch, couldn't even move it because the stering wheel locked and it was
parked behind my roommates car in the garage.  The transmission cable
broke, never buy an automatic! The axels broke.  It nearly ran into the
neighbors house while I was trying to figure out why it would not move when
you pushed on the excelerator (granted I had proped it on with a stick
while I fiddled with the carb), picture me jumping in the window of this
audi driving across the lawn.  After all of that the engine caught on fire
while my friend was driving it and I was on vacation.  I had it for a year,
bought it for $3,000 US, put $2,000 into it and traded it in for $700 to a
dealer and was happy to get rid of it!!!!!   Sorry to put a damper on your
new car!!!   But I will never, ever, ever have another audi.  Good luck
with it I sure hope it's not like the one I  got.
