For sale is our 1989 Audi Quattro 100 4dr. sedan which we owned for approximately 16 years. The vehicle has been great to us over the years and we have replaced many parts throughout the years to include a new steering rack, fuel pump ,headliner, and tires. and painted the original color with BASF Glasurit paint (flamingo metallic) with all dings being removed. The vehicle still looks great but may have a few dings here and there but overall it's a great car. Please continue reading.....
The most recent replacements was a complete overhaul of the a/c unit including flushing the lines and replacing the accumulator, evaporator, a/c line, a/c compressor and cleaning out the heater core. This was a huge job costing over $1,000. I recently replaced the clutch actuator (as it was leaking on the driver's floormat), replaced the starter a few hundred miles ago and last the radiator.
Now the strange part is after installing the radiator I checked for leaks and found none as I replaced the hoses and ensured I utilized 50/50 antifreeze and distilled water. The part that I can not figure out is that after I drove the vehicle a few times I noticed all was ok but after parking it and coming back from doing errands I noticed a good size puddle of antifreeze on the ground. I looked everywhere I cannot find where it is coming from as the hoses, radiator and heater core all looked dry and free of leaks. The only thing I can think of is the head gasket but the car still drives and runs great with no smoke out of the exhaust at all.
Overall the car is very clean and well taken care of and with a used vehicle comes some small things to do which in this case is the sunroof headliner is sagging but no big deal to fix. Tires are in good shape but could probably use some bushings in the rear control arms as they are worn. There are no noticeable dents other than the one I pushed out but it's located above the rear bumper and under the trunk lid and is not that bad. It's the size of a golf ball as somebody backed into the car a year or so ago and I did not want to put more money in the car as it's only cosmetic. The power windows work other than the right rear window and the power locks never worked when we bought it as these Audi's have air assisted or vacuum assist which was trouble-shot for hours with negative results, therefore we lock it manually.
Brakes are good with 4 wheel discs and manual shift (5 speed) A/C could use a recharging (R-12) as I did not convert it over to R134A. Otherwise it's been a great car and we are looking for someone else to take it and drive it for however many years and or miles. Thanks for looking and if any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
SOLD AS IS, NO GUARANTEES OR WARANTEES AVAILABLE
Thanks and Happy Bidding !!!

Automakers teaming with Google to bring Android to cars this year
Mon, 06 Jan 2014Remember how we mentioned that Hyundai would be offering a BlueLink infotainment app for Google Glass? And how last week, we told you about a rumored partnership between Audi and Google? Well, both of these things were just part of a much bigger deal.
Google has teamed up with Audi, General Motors, Hyundai and Honda to form the Open Automotive Alliance. With the help of chipmaker NVIDIA, the group aims to bring Google's Android operating system to the auto industry on a large scale. While the speed with which Android will be adopted by the industry remains unclear - the OAA's own press release says "timing for each automaker will vary" - we could see the first Android-equipped vehicle by year's end.
For those that keep their ear to the ground in the automotive tech world, this is a big deal for more than just one reason - Honda, GM and Hyundai are all partners in the Siri Eyes Free program from Apple. The future of that relationship now that three of its automakers are in bed with Apple's arch-rival, though, could be under threat.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger
Mon, Apr 13 2015The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

BMW says SUVs killed the sports car market
Thu, 13 Nov 2014In many ways, we're living in a golden age of automotive performance. After all, it's possible to show up at a Dodge dealer, hand over about $60,000 and storm away with a 707-horsepower Challenger Hellcat. Or for those who prefer a touch more luxury, the BMW M4, Mercedes-AMG C63 and latest Cadillac ATS-V offer between 425 and 503 horsepower, depending on your pick, with a bit more poshness. However, none of these powerful vehicles fit the classic definition of a two-place, droptop sports car, and according BMW head of sales Ian Robertson, that's because the segment is very much in the doldrums.
According to Robertson, two factors seriously wounded the classic sports car market. First, the global economic crisis of a few years ago put a serious hurt on sales, according to Bloomberg. Further worsening the situation, the boom in popularity of luxury SUVs and crossovers in the past few years hasn't allowed for much recovery. Even car-hungry China hasn't helped much because of the smog in many cities and preference among some of the very rich there to be chauffeured.
Combined, Audi TT, BMW Z4 and Mercedes-Benz SLK sales peaked around 114,000 units a year in 2007, but they are only expected to reach 72,000 annually by the end of the decade. Robertson is pretty pessimistic about the market's comeback too. "Post-2008, it just collapsed. I'm not so sure it'll ever fully recover," he said to Bloomberg.
