Hi guys just purchased a 1996 1.8 b5 A4 with about 180k on the clock, completed a visual inspection before buying and everything seemed in order for 20+ year old car, with light amounts of bubbling on the arches and a bit of lacquer peeling. The clutch is high but not slipping as I would expect with a high milage car without a previous replacement. There also looks like a slight oil leak from the rocker cover gasket which isn't too difficult to sort.
My plan is to get the car in tip top shape ready for a rally next August from London to Romania and back and keep the car as my first project.
Are there any common issues or faults I should keep an eye out for when looking to get it back in shape.
Thanks Adam.
