Audi 100 c4 1991 on.

I quite like these cars as we had one 20 years ago in the family and it was the first car i was insured on etc. I would actually like to get hold of one in good condition to just keep.
Now I know they didn't sell in big numbers but I'm very surprised to see that they are pretty much gone. They are very very rare now, I cannot even locate one for sale in uk. I honestly thought there would be numerous very clean ones in uk. There is a destroyed one on donedeal but that is all.
The A6 that followed was the same car apart from very minor facelift and while they are still around, I don't really want one of them.
Anyone know of a tidy saloon petrol version, ideally in silver that might be for sale.

Nope. I hate them tbh.

Jeez that 92 one on DD is a bloody mess.

Ya, I dont know what they were thinking

Love how they say it's a Collectors item... Probably was until they touched it.
OP, maybe you could check around Europe? Don't know if LHD is an option for you.

ah no, I will just keep an eye. Im sure an odd one will appear for sale over time but I was sure there would be a few well minded ones for sale in uk.
Look at the numbers of Audi 80s still around. I know they sold multiples compared to the 100 but with similar range of engines, same motor tax etc, I find it strange that the 100 disappeared so fast.

why not get an A6 version, they are the same car.

I know they are practically the same but bumpers, front and back lights, rubbing strips, bonnet all different.

Tis rough judging by the description but a tourer must be even rarer? 175 pounds with an MOT so just drive away to the ferry

To be fair if that Waterford car was a 1000 you'd have a look at it, the wheels and trim inserts are not much if an issue.

Fair point but yes they are looking for all the money for it. I can only guess what they did to the interior also. I'm guessing lots of shiny stuff.

I remember a friends father getting one new in 92. Such a silent car to be in while driving

Wouldn't buy anything as rough as that and I'm looking for a saloon version. I'm probably looking for the impossible but I will keep an eye on uk sites.

Fantastic car at the time. E34 bmw was the competition really and swept up all the sales and to be fair that was understandable.
I remember someone asking was it hard to drive because you couldn't hear the engine revving. A silly comment but it does give an idea of how well sound proofed it was.

I rang this guy, he sounds like hes 15 and didnt know anyting about it, unless that was the owners son but he said it was his. Very ignorant anyways but that car if someone gets it is a good one with that engine
