Hello everyone,

My name is Nic and I am from Lake Zurich Illinois. I am new member to Audi World Forums as well as a new Audi owner. I am 20 years old (21 in December) and have a passion for German made cars. I currently also own a 2000 BMW 528i which is my project/ show car currently and was also my first car. On Sunday I traded my Jeep evenly and picked up a 1995 Audi 90 Quattro with 145K. I got the car from a former Audi mechanic who had all of the service records since the car was bought in New York in 95. I am as I said new to the Audi family but after driving the car for a few days love it and find it has a very nice feel to it. The Audi had a new clutch, timing belt and clutch installed less than 8,000 miles go along with a few other parts that I do not remember. The following are the modifications that the car has on it. So far the only things I have done is Detail and give it an Oil change.

I hope to have a good time here and learn a lot. Comments and questions Welcome,

Thank you
Nic

Nice!
I wish my 90 was in that good of condition but mine was a $600 car.

 

Hi Nic,

Hope you don't mind if I use your new find as an example on another post.

"I got the car from a former Audi mechanic who had all of the service records since the car was bought in New York in 95"

 

Thank you verry much GuyllFyre

 

No issue with it at all

 

"New timing belt and water pump (8,000 miles ago)"

Well done, kid. That alone means the car is a good find in my book.

My mother lives in Vernon Hills (next door to a certain weak-kneed QB, actually). If you need any help on a project, let me know. I don't think Lake Zurich is far at all.

 

indeed, both cars are nice.

 

I like the E39, you have good taste in cars! Nice 90 though

 

thank you verry much Typ89!!!

Thank you verry much Varia!!!!

Thank you verry much Loudgoldwing!!! Lake Zurich is about 10 min away and any help would be fantastic. I always like to take advise from people who know these cars. Do you know any places to buy parts for these cars??

 

Beautiful car. Nice buy. Parts places :Autohausaz.com, genuinevwaudiparts.com (online dealer), Force5auto.com (used parts) Shokan.com (really good used parts but pricey)
