Default Little Christmas Competition..

I thought we would do a little competition this week with a small prize for the winner.
Attached are some photos of the Pearl S8 and I would like everyone to list out as many factory options as they can see. Additionally, to make it a bit more tricky, also tell us which options we are missing.
Anyone listing something that was standard will have a point removed so please dont just list everything you see...!
The car is a late 1997 S8, UK bought and registered, and we havent added any extras ourselves.
To start you all off I will give you 1 which is Servotronic Power Steering - it was going to be very difficult to get that on a photo!
Answers please by latest close of business Wednesday 19/12/2012 by email to
enquiry@a8parts.co.uk. We will announce the winner(s) Thursday and the prizes will be shipped out to arrive Friday to go in your stocking! In the event of more than 1 perfect answer we will have to find some more prizes, and if no-one gets it spot on then we will pick the nearest correct answer.
IT - you are allowed to enter but if you happen to win then we will pick the next closest correct answer as well to receive the same prize!

I wondered if we could amend this a little? If I guess how many cleaning products are in the last photo, could I win the S8?

Apologies this is a day late but we will make sure your prize arrives before santa!

OK, so the correct answer would be:
Options Fitted:

Acoustic Parking System
Auto Dipping Rear View Mirror and Side Mirrors
Bose Sound System
Cruise Control
Electric Rear Sun Blind with Manual Side Blinds
Headlight Washers
Mother Of Pearl Paintwork
Electric Rear Seat Pack (heated and Electric Lumbar/Headrest)
Servotronic Power Steering
Solar Sunroof
Walnut Wood Inlays

Options Omitted by the First Owner (damn him!)
Towing Equipment
Enhanced Leather Pack
Through Load/Ski Hatch
Four Spoke Heated Steering Wheel
Delete Model Inscription

Standard Equipment (mentioned by some)
Sat Nav
Phone
Avus Alloys

The tinted windows are after market (no marks were deducted or added for that one!) and Xenons weren't available until around mid 1998.

And the winner is.......

Guy, by 1 point - well done - Please can you give Carl a call on 01642 783537 to confirm delivery address for your prize!

Thank you to those who entered, a free shipping credit has been added to your customer record.

Happy Christmas........
