I hate to be "that guy" but nonturbo front driver means it is pretty much just an interior trim donor at this point.  Not sure that the NF engine is even valuable anymore.  They were popular for a while for re-engining Coupe GTs and 4000s, and someone figured that you could stick a 20V head on one and have low enough compression to work with a turbo and the cast pistons still aren't the weak point in the equation... but a 20V head is worth like three of those cars nowadays, if you can find someone willing to sell one.

For the miles driven, the price is reasonable.  But a 35 year old Audi?  I don't think you are looking at transportation as much as you are looking at spare parts if you somehow had one of these that you wanted to restore.

...and it's an automatic transmission.

In reply to Hoondavan :

Most front drivers were.  Manual trans front drive large chassis Audis were exceedingly rare.
