Here we have a rare 1987 Audi 5000 S - Special Edition
2.2 Inline 5 Cyl- 3 speed automatic
After sitting for too many years, this gem has been brought back to running condition.
Owned by an elderly woman who purchased it new from Dave Strong Audi of Salt Lake in 1987.
The car was parked a few years ago due to her retirement.
This is a running restoration project.
Recently installed a battery, topped off the PS fluid,resealed / gone through the fuel tank / lines.
Can be daily driven carefull, it’s mechanically capable as is.
This is a running and driving restoration project that deserves to be preserved.
I have yet to find one for sale recently, majority of these 5000s succumbed to rust, and to find one in this condition nowadays is extremely rare.
Car is a classic and has:
Zero Rust
Clean Title
No Accidents
All Original
Blue Paint Over Blue Leather interior
New Battery
Freshly resealed fuel tank
No check engine light!
Immaculate interior
Sunroof-Power seats work
Blower motor blows
All lights work
Power windows - mirrors work
Good alignment
Cruise control
Front and rear cigarette lighters work
OEM ski bag intact
Spare tire and jack in trunk
Operators manual intact
Cons :
Odometer reads 65,101, but it doesn’t move.
Owner confirmed it has sub 70k miles with oil service receipt
Paint fade and one cracked headlight
Radio not working - fuse
Cold starts take longer than when warmed up
Small power steering leak
Light on dash indicating brake pad wear,
Air intake boot cracked, I taped it for a temporary seal - easy replacement
Small inconsistent fuel drip from an old fitting under the hood - easy replacement
Transmission shifts rough until it reaches operation temperature.
Takes about 15 minutes of driving nicely / idling to fully warm up.
Once that’s done, it drives wonderfully.
Certified Audi Technician says it needs a transmission fluid flush
Driver door lock is interesting
Front passenger and rear driver window struggle to go up and down, but they do.
Rear Audi emblem needs to be applied with new adhesive
Tires are old but have tread and hold air
Email with any questions.
Great project car with a lot of potential
