my uncle had one of those back in the 70s. I thought the overhead console was the coolest thing ever.

This was before white became the latest must have colour.
And before Audi was associated with cocks.

Great car, definitely fits the thread.

I had the same shape Audi 100 that preceded it and rather liked it.

That white 100/A6 C4 has been discussed already in the thread priced nearer £3K I think. Not the best engine, not a quattro and an auto.

I was young and more used to Caterhams and 205GTIs which probably didn't help. I love my current W124 but think it is a lot more focused than the Audi and even better built.

Diesel Granada.
Must be noisy and slow.
Amazingly so, even by the standards of its day. Much as with the normally aspirated 2.3 diesel Sierra.

That one is most likely the most powerful of the three diesels they put in the Mark II Granada, a Peugeot 2.5 litre engine with an earth-pawing 69 bhp. It will probably eventually do 90 absolutely flat, providing you don't encounter a headwind or a hill. 0-60 in about 20 secs if mercilessly thrashed.

The smaller engined ones, on the other hand, were really rather sluggish.

Yes I originally noticed this car, it was £3-3.5k! My dad an Audi 100 C4 2.6 auto. I borrewed it for a week when I was 18. Was really nice, apart from the thirst biggrin
In fact I own the S6 of this model at the moment - that's a fair bit quicker!

I grew up being ferried around in a succession of diesel Peugeot 504s with the 2.5 engine.
Progress was glacial, even for the period.

A bit over budget.
Not as common as the Monza.
