What year is it?  It would be a 5 cylinder but there were many variations
on it.  This would be a great engine for a Vanagon especially it is a 2.2L
Turbo or a 2.3L n.a.  Here Audi 5000s that arn't turbo or quattro sell for
$500 if it is in bad shape (autotrans dead) to $2000 for a really nice one.
 If it drives, I'd pay $500 for it!
