The main problem with actually driving them is that in a straight line they had fantastic grip, but around a corner, they understeer like a pig. That big 5-cyl engine was hung out in front of the front wheels and with a 50-50 torque split (the Torsen diff didn't come in till about 1988-89), you just couldn't get the back end to hang out and oversteer.
Also, on the 80 and Coupe quattro, the front bumper - indicator/front fog light was a different design from the FWD versions and they are the bits that take the impact if you understeer off a corner. I know, I did it. Three times :-(
