audi 80 LS B1 - Page 2

Just a point regarding the engine, the advert states 1588cc, but a 73 LS would be 1471cc
in my book. The only pre facelift 1.6's were the GT/GTE

We used to have one, ours was an auto in a sort of metallic green/blue with an orange interior. It went to Ireland and was up for sale last year, someone put a link to it here in the cars for sale section.

Yes, it was featured in May/June 2001 issue. It was then owned by Richard Wayte, who was the chief designer/ production sub-editor for the magazine at that time...
