Looks pretty good externally, just a shame with regards the motor, the ZF5HP-24 failure has been well documented, so not really much of a surprise.

Those blue lamps behind the grille are interesting...do they flash at the same time, or alternately?

I think the 'red button' changes the flash pattern. At the moment they flash together.

I drove to Southend when I first got the car and hadn't realised that they were on until I parked up at the beach.... wondered why other cars were braking and pulling over all the time, it was really irritating.

Once I realised I was relieved that I didn't get myself arrested.

Childish fun though. I couldn't get an answer from any previous owners as to why they are on there.

I've seen this really cool one on eBay that slots in where the numberplate goes so no drilling required. I could probably do it myself but it will be messy.

Make sure it will fit first, i bought one and though the dimensions are good externally , the bit which goes inside wouldnt fit , take your light cover of - and if you have a full rectangle it will fit, if it slopes away it wont

Might not fit guy, and you'd need to add the AV input.

Also, it would need to be manually selected in the Media input to see it unless you can spoof the system somehow.

If you end up breaking it, I would be interested in the LPG system.

Thanks and good luck.

Hi, thanks. I don't have the skills or space to break the car so it has to go as one lump.

Cheers P

The final stab in the back is that the S8 broke down this morning with a suspected fuel pump failure.

Anyone still interested and can fix/trailer away please make contact with your final offer by Wednesday otherwise its going to the breakers yard.

My best but unconfirmed offer received to date is £1000.

Car as was, but with an additional £100 worth of fuel, a valet, and a broken fuel pump (suspected)... doesn't start anyway.

Regards

Reassuring to see that the guy telling you what’s wrong with the car can get the model right
