Hi.
The car is a registered August 2008, and the from what I can tell everything from the windscreen wipers back are perfect as should be, even the exhaust appears to be an Audi option for the car at the time of ordering.
I bought the car with light front damage and was sold at a reasonable price as the bumper had been replaced, but it would appear that they headlamps have been changed also as these are not the ones fitted to the car, this should of had the LED headlights as seen fitted to the Audi S8, and although it would be nice to get these back in, at the price of £375 each that I have been quoted plus the recoding back to the correct headlamps... it's a cost that as yet was not vital as I've have headlamps that work with the car. I have put this down to the person who did the repair work not aware when asking for a second hand pair of headlights that there were five different sets for the 2008 year.

Its a desirable colour combo, and engine, but I suspect its got little or nothing in terms of optional equipment...
Could be a bargain for someone, but some interior shots would certainly clean up a lot of questions.... |
I have some interior shots here, I will post them up shortly... It has the black leather inside and the wood trim inserts. The Colour is the Phantom Black pearl effect from what Audi have told me.
Regards

Future Plans:
Selling my current Audi A8 Quattro Sport and replace is with a newer D4 Audi A8L with the 4.2V8 Twin Turbo setup once again it must be black. I'm looking for one with the options added where it has the rear recliing seats, with heated outers. Bose speakers minimum and B&O's if affordable. Rear and back door sun blinds prefered.
Planned Mods:
Upon the arrival of my A8L D4, I will be once again having the ECU remapped to a performance setting over economy. Rear Tints as dark as can go whilst also tinting the front windows with a medium tint. Once again I will be purchasing lowering links for the air ride suspension and setting it at 55mm lower when in comfort as my desire rideheight over standard. Alloys will be 21" however the one current most likly to be the next car already has a brand new set of 2016 S8Plus wheels on it.
