Buying the 1982 Audi 5000
No 1982 Audi 5000 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. This page helps you judge the 1982 Audi 5000 before you buy one anywhere.
A buyer's checks
Owners filed 2 complaints with NHTSA, most often about power train and vehicle speed control; have those parts checked. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Under the hood
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
When the 5000 makes sense
It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
Inside and out
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk.
Rent it for a week first
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week with the 5000 answers more than any brochure. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
