Year/Make/Model: 1991 Audi 90 20V
Transmission type: 5 speed manual
Hwy/City Driving Environment %: 50/50
Current Mileage: 140,000
Miles driven weekly (to and from work only): 130
Average MPG: 23
How long have you been using this DD: 6 years
Reliability - scale of 1 to 10: 9+
Repairs during ownership: Various replacement bits that go bad with use - tires, brakes, shocks/inserts, coolant hoses, spark plugs, etc. The only real repair was to replace the radiator due to a cracked end tank.
General Comments (if any): Just completed a 700-mile round trip this last weekend. Mostly highway, most of it 65-75mph, 28+mpg. Not too bad.
Would you recommend this to others as a DD (1 to 10 scale; 10 being highly recommended)?: 7. DDing an older Audi is not for everyone. You can't defer maintenance, and you can't just McGyver something together to make it work. That being said, I'm not sure I would trade this car for any other kind of DD. OK, a Cayman S. There, I said it.
