Good example..... so looks like that was a very early facelift, with fingerprint sensor option....

Absolutely loving the wonky 5.2 badge on the boot lid and the V10 below the passenger airbag...... not.

Different flavours out there... Early FL, late FL and a bit in-between the two.

Somewhere in there came the umbrella holder in the boot lid and in the sales brochure for the very late ones, there was rear, side window blinds and 3G MMI, HDD sat nav and jukebox as standard equipment.

I smiled when I saw the boot badges in that ad, but I've only just noticed the V10 badge inside the car, above the Quattro sign.

Looks like it was previously owned by Shouty McLouderson

That was a quick search on AT. The one below it in the search was the same...early FL


So these must be the early facelifts or maybe a 2008.5 model year?

That V10 badge on the dashboard, no no no!

Mine is a November 2007 facelift car with fingerprint for what it's worth. However I've just discovered that fingerprint (or "One-touch memory") was standard only on S8 back then, who knew.

Audi must have been pretty lazy back then because in the 2009 brochure for the S8, it also says "V10 badge on wheel arch above indicator"... the indicator is incorporated in the mirror housing on facelift cars.

I've driven that silver S8! That's the one I test drove when I was looking at mine.

It had clearly had a tough life - alloys were beaten up, interior was a mess and it didn't ever want to stop when you hit the brake... Probably should have bought it over mine!
