Decisions decisions
So as of today I no longer own an Audi. I have traded the $500 monstrosity to my father for a Chevy blazer. The 1996 a4 was a parts car when I bought it. I got it Running, spent months working on it, and then it needs a steering rack. I do not have the means to fix that kind of a problem. So until this summer I will be Audiless.
So my question is: On a $5000 budget (give or take) what kind of Audi should I get? I need reliability above all. I would also prefer a manual.
I'm thinking a '99-'01 a4
But what do you think I should be looking at?

Considering the car isn't brand new, there are eventually more things that go wrong with the 1.8T compared to its 2.8 brother.
Boost leak for instance. As the car ages, the hoses get old which will lead to a boost leak/decrease in performance.
What's your personal take on the whole turbo vs. NA when it comes to reliability?
