Fantastic build quality
Great performance.
Great handling for road use
Fuel ecconomy not bad for the size of engine.
B and O sound system out of this world.
Interior the best in the business.
Bad Points
Handling is a bit soft for track use.
Tyres need replacing at 15k max and all 4 need doing.
Front fog lights badly misted up.
Fingerprint recognition does not always work.
General Comments
All in all the Audi S8 quattro is one of the best cars I have had, which inclue 996 turbo, E55, M5, Cayenne Turbo, 745 and others.
The best build, exceptional interior with great usability. Understated but slightly aggresive looks.
I use this car for motorway miles for work, transporting family about at weekends and blast when i'm in the mood. Have even outrun a bentley flying spur and that has 540BHP.
A truely stunning car.
The suspension even on the dynamic setting is fantastic for the road but not quite hard enough or track uses, though this is a big saloon so expected a little too much.
It does eat tyre and they are a bit hard to come by, some supposed world wide shortage.
And mine had the fingerprint recognision. It is handy when it works (setting seats, aircon, radio etc). Though can be a bit of a pain when it doesn't.
All in all a geat car that in my experience is at least one of if not the best on the market at the moment.
