When was the first Audi 80 produced?

I am looking to buy a vintage Audi 80 for my collection and I want to know when was the first Audi 80 produced and in which country?

The first Audi 80 was produced in 1972 in Germany. It was the first model to use the Audi 80 name.

The earliest Audi 80 models were manufactured in Ingolstadt, Germany while the models produced in South Africa and Australia were called the 4000.

You can easily find the first produced Audi 80 models in online auctions or through vintage car dealers. Just make sure to check the authenticity before making a purchase.
