None of the Audi diesels were in quattro models

I was loking at doing the same thing, but a warm climate or a car that produces a goodly amount of heat makes the best bio-diesel as you need the produced heat to warm the fuel.
My first choice would be an 84 Mercedes 300 TD with the 5 cyl. 617A engine. lots of guts plenty of room for all the extra bits and a classy chassis to haul it around in. The 300 CD is getting rarer every year. Check out a few on ebay.

Very sweet - into the body shop next week for a massage and some new paint
Then back home to spend the winter putting everything back together.
The interior is being recovered with as close to stock materials except I deviated with some leather grain microfibre as the base color.
Next spring she will be reborn and then I can start the same with the CQ.
A great performing car and very frugal to run.
I will be a Burian next year to show her off.
