Default Audi 500 S turbo diesel... known problems ?

Have a friend looking at one of these.A 1983 that looks really nice. I have two VW diesels (4 cyl) and this is a 5 cylinder and I don't know anything about them. Are they a good car? Any known problems or niggling things that crop up? It is running well & sounds good & the body & interior are nice looking.
Anything to specifically pay attention to? He sure likes it & is thinking of a repaint & total restoration to keep it for 20 years or so like I have with my rabbit & VW pickup.

Any info on them is appreciated.

It is very precious commodity on the market.
Tell him that he is on the right track and preserve it.
I understand they are very good.
