 1987 Audi 5000S.  2nd odometer shows 284,000.  total miles on car around 484,000.  2nd owner, I have had this car since 1991.  Runs, drives.  Power brakes disconnected, power steering disconnected.  Steering rack seals leak therefore power steering disconnected.  I have driven this car daily for years with manual steering and manual brakes.  I do not recommend that for anyone else though.  Sometimes cold starting is difficult to keep running until warms up.  Paint is basically gone with the rust free galvanized steel exposed.  Has some oil leaks, could be made reliable by the right mechanic.  4 wheel disc brakes.  Extra engine and transmission from car with 220,000 on it. Ran when I removed it.  Spare body parts, computers, some lenses, Bentley manuals.  Distributor on spare engine pickup is no good.  Ice/snow tires on the car are excellent, around 25,000 miles on them.  Basically a project if an Audi enthusiast has some skills and time.  Rear leather seat is great. front seats are cracked/worn. passenger seat heater works, wipers work, horn works, e-brake works, heat and blower works, A/C leaked down about 10 years ago and obviously does not work.  rear defrost works, sunroof works.

Catalytic converter has been removed and exhaust pieced together but is intact. 

various spare body panels from donor car, hood, window regulators, sunroof mechanism, couple of doors


Must be picked up locally unless truck transport can be arranged.  I will help if possible.

Audi waxes poetic about Le Mans

Mon, 12 Aug 2013

Audi did it again this year at Le Mans, but it wasn't arguably a harder job than it's been in the past few years. The Four Rings has put together a five-minute recap of the 24 hours in the wet and the dry at La Sarthe, showing a lot of the low points and the one high point that makes them all worth it.
Perhaps even better than the footage are the driver interviews. Audi has owned Le Mans for more than a decade, but none of the drivers take it for granted - team driver Marc Gene said, "I also think that Le Mans picks the winner... At some point, he just decides which car and which drivers are going to win that race."
You can check it out in the video below. And be sure to hang around for the tribute at the end.

Audi bringing Q3 Stateside after all?

Tue, 08 Oct 2013

One of the major changes that made to the Audi SQ5 to get it ready for the US market was a ride height that was lifted by 1.2 inches compared to its European counterparts. The small increase allowed the SQ5 to retain its "light truck" classification of the Q5 for emissions regulations. In a similar move, Car and Driver is reporting that the Audi Q3 crossover will also be joining the Audi lineup in the US once it receives a facelift and taller ride height.
Expect this facelift to fit in with other recent product updates including the Q5, which mainly focused on a cleaner, more upscale front end and the company's signature LED running lights. The report says that Audi could bring the Q3 Stateside "within a year or two," and it also says that a souped-up RS Q3 will follow close behind. This performance version of the compact crossover gets its power from a 2.5-liter turbocharged inline-five-cylinder engine shared with the Audi TT RS.

Audi SQ7 coming, will have electric turbo

Sun, 27 Jul 2014

Formula 1 and endurance racing are already harvesting energy from turbos on the track, and now it's apparently time for a similar idea of boosting the efficiency of forced induction to hit the streets in a high-performance, diesel SUV.
In a recent interview with the UK's Autocar, Audi technical boss Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg let the big news slip. "The new Q7 will be available in the market next year but the electric turbo will come a bit later in the Audi SQ7 available in 2016," he said. The e-turbo system was already rumored for the premium SUV but for the standard model, not this just-announced performance version.
Audi has been experimenting with the e-turbo system for a little while, as an electrically driven supercharger. It showed up on the RS5 TDI concept that used a 3.0-liter, twin-turbocharged diesel V6 plus the electric system to diminish turbo lag. In that application, it provided an impressive 385 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque and an alleged sprint to 62 miles per hour in 4 seconds. Although, Dr. Hackenberg didn't make it clear if this was the exact layout for the SQ7.
