2001 S8 Re-advertised?
 

Pistonheads have an advert for a 2001 S8 living in Lanark. The same advert was showing 3 or 4 months ago and it seems to be a reasonable price for a 79,000 mile car. Does anybody know this car, regn, S8 AUO,? Is it too good to be true? I am new to the forum and don't want to get burnt first time out. Thanks in anticipation of any help given.

got a link?

I still have the number for that guy on my phone.
It all looked like a top notch car, but I could never get a hold of the owner to go and see it.
It was up for sale at 4200. What'd it at now?
I went as far as a data check, which came back ok.
Try n get a hold of the guy, its been up for sale for a while.
Good luck - looks like a good car & I'm pretty sure that price will be negotiable!!

Thanks for that Dave. I have spoken to the chap and it 'sounds' OK but it has 5 owners at 79,000 miles? Sounds a little odd. Currently on at £3800.

5 owners on a 12 year old car would not ring alarm bells, thats an average of 2 years per owner which is longer than average.

Sorry Sarg, I have to admit that I don't know how to do links from Pistonheads.
Easy to find though, it is up at £3,800. John

Hi Mannyo, what you say is true but if you look at it another way it is only16,000miles/owner? john

Looks nice, very good price considering the lower than norm miles.

Are those US style rear lenses?

Wheels look OK, but need to budget for getting some new discs and paint the calipers when you can see them so clearly

If I was in the market for a D2 S8, I'd be at least going to view this one

Thanks for that Mr. 47p2! John
