Kevin picked up his 1989 Audi 200 Avant in Columbus, Ohio. With questionable mileage, hack-job repairs from previous owners, and a load of issues, this car may not have been the best choice to drive all winter.
However, the pros outweigh the cons. This car has a 5 cylinder turbo engine that sings sweet notes of combustion, is equipped with a manual transmission, and has the legendary Audi Quattro drivetrain.
Follow along with the winter struggle as as Kevin ignores warning lights and takes the alternate route.

"Aerodynamics of a large brick"
WTF?
This Audi has 0.30 cW, one of the best along the cars.
I just wanted to write that down. True youtube car lovers
I was thinking the same thing. Remember the Talladega top speed record car? that was part of the marketing if I remember correctly.
cW alone is not all ! cW x the size !!
Thank GOD somebody wrote this. It was one of the most aerodynamic cars of it's time and inspired absolutely EVERYTHING we see on the roads today, starting with the original Ford Taurus. Ford bought one of these things to see how they could make the Taurus aerodynamic. Millennials have no clue I swear.
Miami SWL Radio people that use generational terms are fucking morons
I love that thing, would be cool if you saved it, but its a lot of work..
Really like it, but saving it? the character of the car resides mostly in its beater nature imo
@@julesf6307 true but eventually to keep it running you'll have to throw so much money at it anyway....might as well...
if the non regular maintenance parts were available, this car would still have many many more miles to go.
If anything; that 5 cyl turbo engine sounds amazing
They still use this engine in the RS3 to this day, engine will be ditched this year I believe due to new emissions' law
and back in days audi used torsen .. now almost every car has shitty haldex
El Pequeño Pene the engine in the RS3 is entirely different lmao
This engine literally has nothing in common with the RS3 engine @@Emon_Lusk_
@@iviivi187 the longitudinal engine audis use the traditions differentials.
the transverse engine cars use haldex
*this needs to be restored*
*edit* : thanks for the likes, lets make this happen guys !!!
Claudiu Punk yes.
NOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!! its epic now, with history ;)
Where do you start???
And a nice Turbo
Ah this car costs 5k€ + in eu if in optimal condition
dude the aerodynamic was and is great also in today standards for the audi200
Dad drove a 10 year stretch of late 80s and early 90s Audi's keeping them alive in a mechanic bay in Burlington. some times it seemed certain cars just lived on jacks. The 91 200 20v avant wagon was his favorite. When tunned it was a wolf in sheeps clothing. It passed you on the way to the mountain, parked in a spot that you couldn't get to with your outback then pulled you out of the snow bank when you slide off heading home.
LOL, love this. You have story telling skills.
Although this 200 was neglected and obviously mishandled by previous owner, it´s still worth saving and keeping. They are rare, especially the Avant version, also they were fast cars. The 2.2 R5 engine is placed quite near the front bumper, making handling in corners tricky, but with true 4x4 system and big turbo it´s really fun to drive. That engine was also on the later Audi S2 and those were enormously popular with tuners. The 5 cilinder makes a distinctive noise that´s like a favorite track to car fans. These cars like this Audi, the E32 BMW or even those Volvo 850 t5´s are fading away from memories and rotting in scrapyards because they need more money and attention than some run of the mill Honda, but keeping a car like this is like taking care of automotive heritage.
So glad that this series exists... I said it and I say it again, you guys are the best thing that happened on UA-cam for at least a year!
in germany that car would cost 5000€ just to cheer you up :)
these dont even exist in my country.
Killerinator A nice one would cost €5000, this “junk” could be more like €300-€500
@@ricards8114 would pay 1500 EUR easily for this one, only 6,153 of these were ever produced
In austria are only 5 on sale with that 2.2 turbo. The cheapest one is 6.5k with rust and in terrible condition. The other 2 are 12 and 17k. The 12k model is modded and looks good on the pictures, the 17k model is stock and looks good too.
@@roberts2760 Tu esi idiots?? Vai vienkārši idiots??
Mod the crap out of it! xD ..... and save it from rust
make it so fast the rust flies off.
rust = weight reduction
So let it rust
Riste Kostadinov let’s remove the entire body, now that’s weight reduction!
@@ristekostadinov2820 actualy no...rust make thing much heavier
@@martincoufalik9101 Awww, maan. Did you have to?
I understand that edginess was the intent, but the Audi 200 actually has really good aerodynamics.
Yes, not many modern car can beat it’s CE
It has a better coefficient aerodynamics of a Lamborghini gallardo, so perhaps a flying brick is not the best analogy? With the long roof, the faster you go, the more stable it is at high speed in a straight line. This car given very little upkeep will reward you with a surprisingly fun driving experience
It's probably the shittest, but also my favorite car. The oldschool Quattro system, the 5 cilinder turbo, really cool.
Also getting parts must be horrible, I live in the Netherlands yet I never see a Audi 200 (unlike the other 4 cars).
Richard - Cheapest audi 200 avant i could find WAS 15K FUCKING EUROS. Holy shit.
Hey Richard, i´ve got an Audi 100 5 cilinder turbo quattro. I also have got the same troubles ;) hear hear bud!
Nothing shitty here.
Where's that?? 😅
Rare car
We have an Audi 100 C3 Avant. Basically it has the same exact chassis, but it is FWD and non turbo. I wonder what that car has been through so it is so horribly rusted. Usually these cars' bodies are bulletproof (ours doesn't have even the slightest bit of rust on the undercarriage or fenders, just a bit on the hood and trunk door where is has been hit by somebody). I feel your pain for parts. I have been trying to scavenge for some parts for years now and still haven't found sh*t. Would be glad to see a car like that to be given a new life, especially since they are so rare. Good luck, man!
Your videographer (or team) is killing it these days!
That 5 cylinder sound makes me feel kinda funny
Kenny K ikr.
Kenny K I think it’s called an Erection.
To think that the Audi 100 from the 80s had a better drag coefficient than a Ferrari F40 and on par with the Porsche 959.
Well, it doesnt need downforce. a sports car meant for handling and speed typicaly always has a worse drag coefficient than a family car. not different today.
@@Digi20 But a lower drag = higher top speed.
@@Vazin sure, its always a trade-off.
It's drag *coefficient* though, not total drag.
Cd is drag per unit cross-sectional area.
Total drag, which is the number you need, is CdA.
there's just something magical about a 5 cylinder engine
2.2 Turbo Quattro is a legendary combo, the engine and drivetrain is already worth what he paid for it. Had a 1988 Audi 100 2.3E sedan that my grandpa bought in 1991, awesome cars.
5 cylinder turbo. That's what makes this car is awesome
And a manual
I want a 5 cyl in my life
Damaged Goods I've had one in my live. My dad had a ur Quattro.
Buy one before they become too old, more and more brands are dropping the 5 cyl.
Get a Volvo
I've got a feeling the price of these cars will just spike up In a few years
they already are getting expensive and rare, nobody wants to sell them lol
The 2.2T 10vt versions not really expensive, but 200 20V with 2.2T 3B engine are really expensive
They are already ridiculously priced in europe. Germans sure love their oldtimers.
I found that out after watching the video like I can't find them anywhere in my country holy shit I thought I was gonna get a classic for the price of an iPhone 😂😂😂
I have 7 and i hope so. 6 being the far better 20v variants and my absolutly mint 10v, to bad its a sedan
Sounds like a good old Audi! ❤️❤️❤️
Make that 5Cyl shine again.
beater? this car is a piece of history. would love to own one of these
Save this Audi.
Audi ❤️
Audi and Volvo 5 cylinder engines sound the best out of all engines IMO, gives me goosebumps every time i hear one.
Did he say it's only making 0.8 BAR?
That's a vacuum.
These should make 1.4 stock.
6psi.
0.8 overpressure was propably what he meant.
I would hope?
A tuned MC2 should make 1.8 or 1.9bar. (13psi)
The screen in the dash reads absolute.
@@Mpeterson1286 Why do u use overpressure for psi and absolute pressure for bar?
0.8bar boost is around 12psi.
1.0 bar is equal to 14.7 psi dude
Vacuum is below 0.0 bar as is -0.8 bar is about 10 to 12 inches of vacuum
Tbh i know it's a winter beater, but you could make it an epic cruiser!
this is my favorite video of the entire series so far.
Years ago this guy I worked for bought a really mint sedan version of this car for $800 and it was a blast to drive! Interesting 80's quirks and awd.
Pls no Winter BEATER pls restore it and show us the steps to it! This car is too good to beat it you have to show it love!
Love the winter beater series!
This thing is in Germany worth around 4000-5000 Dollars.
8K+
Absolutely not. Greetings from Germany
Waiting for the drifts !☝️🙌❤️love these series!
It's amazing how good cinematography, music and story can make me dream about an old rust bucket like this.
PS: Definitely is NOT about "aerodinamics of a brick", more than that, were MORE aerodinamic than many of actual cars 😂.. For your knowledge.. audi c3 avant.. got some cx 0.29!!
This thing deserves a restoration. It sounds great!
Oh God, I keep coming back to this video more than I should.
“There’s a lot going on here under the hood” lmao sounds like your talking about some crazy turbo Supra or something. All in all cool car.
Just, please bring this back.
Great vid ya’ll! Loved it!
What an awesome sound from an awesome box on wheels!
i love the mercedes, i have owned two of them but still, the audi looks so cool. sorry merc this is the coolest winter beater.
Hahaha Did a ton of work and still needs a ton of work! Drive it till the wheels fall off. Love the sound of the motor too 👍🏾
I think its fair to show us that “winter beater” poster to us, it looks sick 😷
Respect for the unreal amount of work you done on the car. Shame it was in such crap condition.
My dude youre out of your MIIIIIIND with the work youve put into this car..
Enjoying watching this, and the ending is epic
The glorious 5 cylinder!!!!
Remove the black plastic cover on the distributor cap... collects moisture and eventually carbon tracks and arcs around the cap. Works okay in Phoenix, etc, but not anywhere with some humidity....we removed them at the dealer when the cars were new or we replaced the distributor caps. The alarm system had a starter interruption circuit so be aware of that if you have starter issues. They were amazing cars. Never saw a 5-cylinder wear out.
If this car originated in Columbus it more than likely was sold at Capital Import which is part of the Byers automotive Group. You just gotta love the creature comforts found in these older audi...we had a 200 turbo lease return and a 5000cs turbo...so fun to drve
If you want to make this thing pop again, I think you should come to Europe,plenty of these things lying around,base models mostly, with a lot of spare parts which are in good nick. Idk how you would ship tho,but a good suggestion nonetheless
aerodynamics of a brick? Look it up dude, it won awards
For $950, you did very, very well. I would have bought that in a heartbeat.
Because.. racing!
That S badge was not original. Came on actual S cars starting early '90s. These later '80s cars were galvanized so whatever was done to this car by previous owners was pretty crazy.
I'm in love with the car
My parents had one of these and it lasted over 300 K before it was rear ended and totaled.
Only had a single dime sized rust spot on the tailgate and everything worked.
This poor car must have been through HELL and never been maintained....
Big fan of AUDI so I love it. Needs a frame off resto, alot of Fab and love!!! 😍
I love the sound of it 😍
This car doesn't need lot of money. It just needs LOVE and it runs all the time. Do the rost off
Old school Quattro gang. Got a 1994 S4 that I run in the winter!
My god... Audi 200 for 950, even in this bad condition... You better fix it and keep it. These things are kinda rare
Petar Nikolov or you could just buy a half decent Rex
@@anthonyfarnan5935 rex ?
If you had gone through what works on the car, this video would have been 20 sec. long. Respect for all the work you've done.
You guys are the best. This is why I buy from you
I love this so much... This is the sorta thing I'd love to drive round in
Forget about fixing cars! This channel has excellent cinematography/directing/filming skills! Better and more beautiful action scenes than a lot of proper films!
Hannu Mikkola and Stig Blomqvist would be proud of the noise! 😜👍
Don't forget Ms. Mouton!
What a beautiful car, that is a very rare car here in the UK. Worth a sub just for this car.
Do take care of this car. It is becoming a classic!
This is a better vehicle than most people will drive in their life.
I’m literally going through the same situation on a 91 Audi 200 20v. Got it running and daily drivable !
I had one. Such an amazing car. The drag co. Is better then most new cars. It only looks like a brick. Takes abuse and smiles back
I liked these when I was a kid. Audi makes the best wagons on the market. Hey - you should drive it up a snow-covered ski slope. I'm jealous!
This made me miss my old Avant too much :( Started looking for another one.
My first car. I have the first edition avant. Great memories 👍🏻
at least the hood struts work haha
I was thinking the same thing hahhaha
That outtro for the quattro. Best part.
This car is really cool!
What a wonderful car
In my country they are very rare and expensive now
Save it
Hi! I have the same 1991 sedan! Amazing in the snow!
Now I feel a lot better about my rust-free Porsche 924S for $1,075. Only major problem was a seized water pump. Car would have started but didn't chance it. Lots of other, normal problems for this year and model. I have to admit that I'm starting to love beater cars though.
The gas tank is the same in all the Audi 100/200 quattros, the V8 and the first audi A6 quattro - should not be impossible to find 😉
awesome car bro
Love that outro
This thing is completely destroy- b-but it sounds EPIC though
is it really that rare of a car in USA or whatever they are in? in my country theres probablly like 400 of those listed for sale and you can pull of the gas tank for parts.
More beater challenges please!
I really loved this thing 🥺😢
Awesome car 👍
As bad as that car is, it is still very, very good. Audi's from that era were on a completely different level.
Beater? I have an Audi 80 B3 2.0E 1989 and it's my daily driver (only car).
30 years old!!!! Let me say that again "30 YEARS OLD" !!! It will definitely need a lot of work as parts age!! Again, "30 YEARS OLD"
THTS so awesome I net alot of hours cursing & wrenchin ! I just finished replacing turbo in an old audi wagon same thing every thing was fuct but what do u expect for a 900$ car but i love it!
That is a cool looking Audi! The 5cylinder makes such a nice sound and the quattro is fun on the winter or muddy roads! It is a weird looking car but in a good way!
Yea Audi 200s are some of the hardest cars to find parts for. Hell all those 80s Audi’s. It’s a damn shame. That is definitely a winter beater tho!
''Aerodynamics of a large brick'' this guy hasn't seen an old Volvo. Prove me wrong
This Audi fucking rocks bro. Wagons for life.
5zyl Turbo quattro thats the magic words
The definition of a winter beater haha
