This really isn't a problem, at least not as yet. I have a the chance to buy a 1992 Audi 100 CS Quattro with about 217K miles on it and I was wondering how reliable this car is and if I should buy.

The only two things I know that are wrong with this car is a small oil leak that from the sound of it drips about 2-3 drops a day give or take and cracked cv boot on the front end.

Should I buy this car? I have maintenance is costly for Audi's and this has me worried about the cost of up keep.

I can buy it for $1400 [img:d2af2894ef]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/344766_car1_1.jpg[/img:d2af2894ef]

217K miles is a decent amount if you buy it dont be expecting over 250k total miles. you can get over that but dont buy it expecting that.

the car looks like its in good shape. its a reliable car. its just high mileage... its up to you. i wouldnt 1,400 is a good chunk of change...
