hi all,
I have an opportunity to purchase a 1993 Audi 90CS with 139K miles, 5spd, 2.8V6 for around $2200. The owner has receipts for some major repairs as follows:
Vehicle Options and recently done work:

Power Everything (doors, windows, steering, front seat…),

- ice cold AC w/digital display,

- ABS power brakes w/On-Off button,

- Moonroof/sunroof,

- winter package,

- heated front seats,

- front/rear fog lights,

- AC-Auto weather button for immediate windshield visibility,

- headlights washers

- digital displays/calculations,

- extra gages for oil pressure, bar, and volt,

- cruise,

- alloy wheels...

done work:

(I have receipts for most of these records)

- tires (80% life left),

- front brakes,

- timing belt (on time),

- tenssioner rotor,

- water pump,

- serpentine belt (on time),

- thermostat,

- radiator hoses,

- w-pump by-pass,

- front struts,

- mountings,

- tie rods,

- w/all wheel alignment,

- central exhaust pipe patched and tightened,

- battery,

- left headlight,

- air filter,

- pollen filter,

- cabin filter,

- oil and filter change every 3-4K mi


My commute will require about 35-40 miles a day, will this be a reliable ride with MINIMAL investment in repairs besides oil change, tune up, radiator flush etc etc. ?

I welcome any previous/current owner experiences and any opinions you may have and I thank you very much.

What are the odds?
I am also looking at a '93 Audi 90CS for a daily driver. I'm waiting for the owner to call back and get more details on the vehicle.
