Review of Audi A8 2.8 

Buy secondhand only.

Advantages: Looks, value for money, secondhand.
Disadvantages: Depreciation.

If you can afford the depreciation on a car like this then fine, go ahead and buy one. I would wait a while however and wait for that fantastic value for money. They've recently brought out a facelift so that will make them depreciate even quicker. Then again look how S-Class and 7-series depreciate as well. At least this won't rust. Get one with all the toys. Sat Nav, drivers information centre etc. However when you are accelerating hard, don't ...

Review of Audi A8 4.2

Audi A8 4.0 TDI

Advantages: luxury, diesel, beautiful
Disadvantages: jealousy

If you want to drive a luxury car this is it!!! Not only it has been selected to be in the new film 'Transporter 2' it was not my choice of car but when I started driving it I knew this is a very special car. This car is not chosen by many women and I have not yet seen a woman driving it more than myself but, this car gives you most of the pleasure of a driving a car and those who either got one or are actully been driving an A8 knows what I am ...

Review of Audi A8 6.0 Quattro

Brute !

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

The Audi A8 is the VW’s group answer to the Mercedes S-Class and BMW’s 7 series. It looks like an elongated A4. It certainly doesn’t look as large as the S-Class and its all aluminium construction helps to keep the weight down. My road test during my time working at a VAG group dealership involved motorway and town driving. I drove the 3.7 sport model with tiptronic transmission. The car pulls like a steam train and using the tiptronic, progress ...
...or backward to change down and while it takes a while to get used to it certainly helps when sporty driving is required. All mod cons are included from air-con to electric seats. Rear room is acceptable without being gargantuan. Overall this car should not disappoint and makes an attractive alternative to the other German marques. ...
