There is an euro 85 200 quattro around Boulder, Colorado that I sometimes 
see in passing. I have never been able to really check it out, but there are 
body differences from the US 5000 series cars. The euro car has trimmer, 
less bulky bumper covers. They fit more closely to the lines of the car and 
don't seem to extend down as far as the US bumper covers. A euro car should 
also be equiped with euro head lights. Not sure which engine came in the 
200s of this era.
