For Sale: 02 S8 Final Edition

milo900 · #1 16th November 2023, 07:32 PM

I'm reluctantly selling my 02 Audi S8 Final Edition. It is in Avus silver with the purple extended leather interior. I have posted previously when I was first thinking about selling earlier this year.
It is being sold as spares/repairs. Has been off the road for the last couple of years.The car developed a misfire in late 21 and I took it to a local Audi specialist, who said it would need the cylinder head refurbished. I've included a picture of the quote. I was unable to get the work done at the time and haven't got around to it. I'm just about to move house and with a few other cars on the drive, I have to make some space.
Car had cambelt, tensioner, waterpump done in early 21. New starter motor and battery too. Gearbox was refurbished in 2015.
Mileage is approx 163,000. Bodywork is in good condition with a few minor scratches. Interior is in great condition, no tears to the leather.
I am selling it on 18" Audi alloys, not sure of the style. Have the original 20's in storage and can sell separately for the right price.
Price wise, just trying to recoup some of the thousands spent.
£2500 but am open to offers. I just want it to go to someone who can appreciate this lovely car and get it back on the road.

Try and add some more detailed photos of the car exterior and interior, which I'm sure will generate some interest here on the forum.

Good luck with the proposed sale.

My S8 is still for sale. Have put off doing anything with it but am finally moving house this coming Monday and cannot take it with me.
I need this going by Saturday ideally before I have to scrap it. Really do not want to do that but out of options now.

Sold as spares/repairs. Obviously will need trailoring away. Comes on 18" alloys, 20s available separately if wanted.

Hopefully someone on here can help, thanks.

If it's an FE as it certainly appears to be then the 20s should go with it if the buyer intends to get the car running.
If not, I'm interested in the 20s, assuming they are genuine FE 8.5J ones, not the later D3 9J version. How many (4 or 5?), what condition and where (I think Northampton maybe)?

Ideally I would like it all to go together but as so much has been spent and lost, am just trying to get back what little I can.

Have just checked the wheels and they are the genuine 8.5j ones. Have a set of 5. Condition I would say is ok, not bad but not great. Have curbing marks and would ideally be refurbished. I am in Northampton yes.
