I had a look at one before I bought my A8. I've always liked the look of them (the facelifted ones less so).

Good bits:
I think they look elegant
19" Helios wheels
Interior is well-made and sound system was good
Double glazed too, IIRC.

Bad bits:
Much heavier than the A8

Ugly bit:
They used aluminium strips around the windows on top of the doors and they react with the steel on the door tops, causing the paint to "Blow". Not sealed away from each other properly. There were instances where VW replaced all the doors under warranty but as this is an inherent design flaw, how long etc... The one I saw had bubbles on the tops of all the doors and on the boot handle (which I've seen on A8's too).

You might get one which has been done properly but keep an eye out for it. Shame, it put me off the car as it'd be a Forth Bridge job keeping on top of it.
