Pretty sure they've featured '8s before.. and it's usually the same story.. How cheap they are to buy and how awesome they are for the money.

Buy one, they're so much better than a C5 RS 6 and cost peanuts to run.

I want one too, this one didn't have black leather so was a no go. Will buy one with a broken gearbox/light accident damage. I don't know what the heck I am going to do with one, but I need one as I think the D2 is the best car Audi have ever made.

Needs to be:

PF
95,96 (want the RS 2 style steering)
Sport
4.2 only, will consider an S8 but prefer an A8
Black leather

Someone must have one.
