    indeed, and they failed at 80mph which meant the engine was in a pretty bad state. 5k to put it right or 6k with forged internals and race bearings so i sold her on for not much money :(. was mapped for vpower(99oct) so when i had it in ireland for a few weeks was using octane booster with maxol E5, supposed to be 99oct but apparently that fuel makes it run lean and the diagnosis was that done the damage, althought it was a good 3 months after until they finally gave up. no obvious rattle or knocking from engine either. Or else it was just an freak accident and they failed at that point.

    Pity man, serious car. They went in my mates B4 too. The mechanic said the previous owner had it running far to much boost.

    My courtesy car for 2days during the week, a 1989 Corolla. Rattle can blue with the shops decals to cover the rust. No power steering (or pretty much anything). Felt like it was going to blow away at 100kph.

    Yea I was heartbroken at the time. Sometimes I wish I got it fixed but, I would have had it tuned down for 95oct and would have been losing power. I will have one again, just waitin till I don't have to pay 1500sterling for insurance. Next time I will get an Sti tho. Lot easier to tune and stronger internals!

    It's got 140k on it. It's a 180. I picked it up in England a few years back.

    Yeah it came with all the nice bits. Bose stereo as well. Got lucky with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,825 ✭✭✭✭bear1


    Is there a difference between the 1.8T and then the 1.8T which is a red T? The one on yours looks red on the pic
    Lovely clean example, loving the alloys

    Red T would denote 180 BHP but like all Audi/VW's you can't always trust what the badge says, not saying that's the case here of course.

    It's a great car that, 180 BHP and 4wd 13 years ago, there are manufacturers who wet themselves talking about figures like that on their cars of today.

    Yeah the red T is original. It even came with a red line under the A4 on that particular model.

    To the best of my knowledge on that model the fwd were 150bhp. The 4wd were 180 and had the red bit on the T. The wheels are Ronal Bolero's and came as standard on it too.
