my daughter has a BMW with some electric on order for end of november and the plan is for me to take over her A6 avant so the idea is for that that to be my last car [ I'm the forums oldest member !]

best feature is that the 8 had a new transmission ex audi in the last 25 k at vast expense with the idea of keeping it , but as I no longer live anywhere I can do anything myself it seems sensible to have something younger even though I hate the idea as it still runs just fine but the right car has come along for me

at one point I considered changing the wheel as I was told that it was possible with a new controller ....Ian can probably advise if that is correct
Hi Nick, thanks for getting back to me, please do let me know once you're ready to part ways with it it sounds like a very looked after car and a V8 as well! I live in Cardiff but driving it all the way from Southampton is my idea of heaven haha.

I have retrofitted a multi function steering wheel on a mk1 Octavia in the past but an A8 must be at least 2x more complicated, still I would try and do it
