2009 Audi S8 V10

[Nognar]

Good condition and a great car, only being sold as I have a single garage and another car needs that space now.

Will be going onto eBay next week.

As for Price I am not sure what it's worth as it's great but also higher miles, so open to sensible offers. I paid £8,000 for the car in April last year after I sold my D2 S8. If I had the room I would be keeping the S8 as its a very special car indeed.The service history on this car is really good, it comes with a large amount of documents in a folder and all the key areas of the car have been addressed that needs to be done.This is a long advert but I have ensured its all there to show how much money has been spent on the car over the years.The mileage is high but so has been the maintenance levels and service spent on the car by myself and the previous owners. One of the reasons I have so much detail on the cars history is down the prior keepers fastidious attention to getting everything done as needed including the expensive jobs and documenting it.

Any questions PM me.

Overview:

The car was first registered in February 2009 and was bought from Stafford Audi as a used approved vehicle. Looking at the “How Many Left” website there are only 14 of the later model V10 S8s now licensed.

This D3 S8 model was in production between 2006 and 2010, Importantly this is the later facelift model that was introduced in 2008 which included the following updates:

Redesigned and updated LED rear tail lights
Updated front bumper with rectangular fog lights
Fold around airline style headrests
Chrome trims in the interior cabin
Avus Silver Pearl effect paint

Highlights:

Top of the range Audi car with some significant options ticked
Bang and Olufsen sound system
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto interface added from Mr12Volt allowing everything to be controlled through the standard Audi system
Advanced parking with reverse camera
Electric rear window blind
Keyless Entry
Fingerprint Start
Soft Close Doors
Double Glazed windows
Carbon ceramic brake discs
All 4 Carbon brake discs were replaced with new under warrantee earlier in its life by the Audi dealer and have plenty of life left on them, receipt comes with the car to confirm this
Relay on the boot close that allows both open and close from the remote.
Pirelli PZero all round with good tread depths
Bespoke exhaust

Air intake, swirl flaps and engine de-coke has all been done on the car at great expense

If you research common faults on these cars, this car has had pretty much each and every one. All of them have been addressed by the previous owner.

So whilst it is clearly high mileage, it has been maintained incredibly well and the common faults resolved already.The air intake, swirl flaps and engine de-coke is a £5k job alone with the power steering pump being in the same ballpark. If you bought another example without these common faults addressed, it would cost easily £10k to fix them all. Some of the work was to address issues or faults as they occurred and in other cases by the previous owners who did some of the work purely as part of pre-emptive maintenance.A lot of this work was done by the previous owners but I wanted to list it all as its so comprehensive and the main reason I purchased the car on the back of that.. This list is below and was detailed and written by the previous owner.

Work carried out:

Some of the highlights of the parts that have been replaced over the previous years to show how much money has been spent on the car. 

Power steering pump (which was engine out)
Carbon ceramic brake discs all replace by Audi under Warranty
Two carbon cleans (de-coke) on the value stems / intake, complete new air intake manifold with integral swirl flaps (you see many of these cars where the swirl flaps have been removed when the swirl flaps inevitably fail which does impact the way the car drives so the correct repair is to replace with new not just remove)
Injectors replaced or ultrasonically cleaned to restore flow rates
New nearside and offside front dust / weather guards fitted rear of the front brake discs, new black metal triangle trims on rear window surrounds
New air suspension pump and relay
New sway bar bushes and drop links
All New front suspension arms

The car has been maintained by Audi prior to my ownership and since then (other than warrantee work) it has been maintained by leading independent specialists; (VAG Car in Cannock, Chester Automatic Transmission Centre, German Auto Solutions in Leicestershire and AudiTechnic in Gloucester)

MMI Firmware and NAV both updated. Nav is 2018 version. HPI clear.
Vehicle is mostly garaged

Servicing summary:

This has been put together by the previous owner to show how much maintenance has been undertaken on the car in his ownership.

Bad Points:

This is not a new car, please do not expect it to be. But its a good working used example.
Some stone chips and minor marks reflective of the cars age and some minor aluminium corrosion in a couple of places on the bodywork. There is a small patch of paint touched up on the bonnet. So the bodywork is good, presents well but not perfect.
TPMS light on as the rear passenger side tyre sensor needs a new battery
Mileage 190,643 is high but the high quality of the maintenance ensures its still a great car today
Small blow from the exhaust
