For anyone not familiar with the S8 in the D2 platform, here is a brief overview;
The body and chassis are aluminium, making it not only very light, but also extremely corrosion resistant. The V8 in this facelift model produces 360hp. They'll achieve around 30mpg on a motorway run. This was Audi's flagship model and still stands out as a fast, luxurious car. S8 was given notoriety as the star of the Hollywood film 'Ronin' (with Robert De Niro in a supporting role).
I've owned this S8 for the past 10 years. It has been garaged during my tenure. As you can see from the photos, it has been de-badged and standard A8 seats fitted, as I far prefer them. It will be sold with the original badged grill. I have also upgraded the audio system. Original Recaro black leather sport seats and Bose audio/nav/tv available by seperate negotiation.
