Highest I've seen on a 5 speed box for sure...

Very similar spec to Mikes and 'Jane' - The first S8 we ever dismantled back in 2007.

Notable differences: it doesn't have heated windscreen, and this towbar was factory fitted.

Nice find, good value at a grand for some of the kit it has on it tbh.

I initially thought that that number plate looked very familiar. Further checks revealed that the original number plate assigned to my A8L was W208 EWL and this particular S8 is W218 EWL - only 10 away. Interesting extra snippet of info, our family's old Bedford CA ambulance was ALR 656B, and the coach on The Italian Job was ALR 453B.

Wow. I thought Mike's was the only Merlin Purple left.

It's only in Bristol... argh

You appear to be suffering from an incurable condition known as audiatis, and I know someone in the medical profession that can help... Oh, hold on a minute lol

If it was yellow, or had a black interior, that would have been milliseconds :p

If I had space there would be a lot more than three Aluminium Audi’s in the household
