+1. It'd probably also help your case to give details on the "improvements" mentioned above. Like most of the others on here, I've yet to see this car, and a picture is worth a thousand words, as ever ;) .

I am selling my Audi S8 D2 4.2 V8 Quattro in rare Cedar green colour. The car is excellent condition for its age very clean and tidy always turns heads and receives positive comments where ever i go.

The car has been my pride and joy throughout ownership and has never missed a beat it is washed and waxed weekly, only run on Shell V-POWER and is my weekend car.

It took me a while to find an S8 D2 in this condition with the right specification after looking at a few bad examples this one came up and i fell in love with it, i have always wanted an S8 D2 after my favourite film Ronin.
The car has been extensively maintained by JKM Performance in Portsmouth (VAG specialist) throughout my ownership. I handed the car over to them on purchasing it with 100k miles with a list of future proofing jobs so i could just enjoy it without having to worry about things going wrong, all of the big jobs have been taken care of and they gave the car a clean bill of health - total bill £4.88615

No VAGCOM faults shown with engine and gearbox modules can show this with laptop.

Bad points to consider. As with all cars, there are some very minor marks on the exterior rear bumper, very tiny mark on passenger wing.
The rear seat base has a very, very small hole in it and there is some discolouration on some interior panels but none of the above detract from the beauty of this rare modern classic.

I am the 6th owner, the previous owner was a mechanic and had his own MOT centre and looked after the car very well.

5.5k wanted no offers

Why would it make sense for the thread to be deleted? Regardless of whether you're still selling it or not, there is information on here (spec details, price guidance, etc...) which is potentially useful to forum members who may be interested in similar models?

AFAIK, there's nothing "confidential" in this thread, and surely it's a principle of a good forum - which this is - about openly sharing information, unless confidential, for the benefit of all forum members?
