Default Debating coming back!

Some of you may remember my brief time here (6 months) with my old D3 4.2 TDI.

I left A8 owndership and went all economical, bought a cheap and tatty 2006 Mk6 fiesta... *cough* 1.4 tdci *cough*

I ran that alongside a few "weekend motors"

- 1992 Dodge Ram D350 Cummins 12v 5.9
- 2003 Mercedes S55 AMG Kompressor
- 1999 Audi S4 Avant


I despise driving the fiesta, but i do love my gas guzzling V8's.

Im debating dailying a D2 S8, with LPG to make the fuel costs a little easier.

I've considered a number of vehicles, but bang for your buck i dont think you can beat a D2 S8 in regards to performance, reliability, interior quality etc.

Any knows issues with D2's?
Can you squeeze any more ponies out the V8? exhaust / headers?
Anything to look out for when buying?

Also - the rear end im not a fan of, the lights i feel make it look a bit dated, has anyone done anything with this before? replaced the lenses or something??
