In the trade world that car would probably be worth a good £3k less than a silver, black, whatever colour, car. Even brilliant red would be better. Buy it if you like it and you have no intention of ever selling it again. If you have even half a thought of trading it in in or selling it in 12 months, give it a miss.

It's cheap for a reason and that reason is probably the colour. Fine on an RS2--abominable on an S8.

You did ask for opinions.

Thanks Darren

Tonupkid - I do like that S8, but I don't think its anything special. I only like buying cars if they are really special e.g spec, or a real bargain & that ones neither I'm afraid.

I think thats a nice S8 for what its worth Amar - great colour, late, just had the cam belt done, not too high mileage and love the interior colour combo etc. Dont know what you could knock him down to on price, but its gotta be worth a look in the flesh and a lower offer maybe? Just a thought. . .
Nice find tonupkid

I think you're really going to struggle here Amar.

I'd say either get a motor that's written off, but has good engine and transplant into yours, or get one in good nick, bite the bullet on price and transfer all your cool mods to it.

Default Here's another S8 for your consideration

Hi Amar

Here's a 52 plate S8 in Manchester. And it comes with the schizo sports mode. And..... being sold by Suki Singh no less.
That's got to be worth bargaining leverage
