I have a 1987 GLi with the 8 valve engine. I love the little car but it has too many problems that aren't worth fixing on a car that's approaching 140K miles. Not much power, but it handles great and stops short, just wish I had more time/money and maybe i'd keep it. Those older A2's are kind of like saabs, parts are plentiful, not horribly expensive if you know where to look, there is a helpful community devoted to keeping them on the road, and they're easy to work on. I can pull and replace a driveshaft in my VW in about 1 hour, brakes are a snap. Only thing I don't like doing is replacing the belts, that one hidded bolt behind the PS pump had me stumped for 5 days.
