D3 S8 5.2 V10 FSI Vs D3 W12 6.0

[Nollywood]

Hey ladies and gents!

Having done with my D3 4.2, I find myself hankering after another D3.

Yeah, yeah, a diesel would be a sensible buy. But, a frugal D3 running on heavy oil doesn't appeal to me. Fuel consumption isn't really a consideration, I'm quite happy to swap MPG for SPM (Smiles Per Mile).

I am looking at two similarly-powered models, the S8 and W12. I have driven an S8, without exploiting its true potential, as I was picking up the car for a client, and didn't want to risk breaking something just before delivery.

For those who may have driven both models, how did they compare? I'm aware the S8's suspension is tuned for handling, so I'm looking more at outright pace, comfort and of course ultimate luxury.

I look forward to reading from different perspectives.
