Ok, after much deliberation on what to replace an E38 with. I've gone with the S8 Audi. Keeping the Silver E38, can't part with that. I looked at a few E65s and after throwing up in my mouth consistently, I decided I needed to look elsewhere. E60 550, been there. Options on large sedans with autos and pace with style are quite limited and this baby ticks all the boxes. It's a NZ New, 1 owner with full Audi service history, 140ks. love the look and the options boxes are well ticked. V10 5.2l 450hp, B&O upgrade audio, keyless entry. All the full A8 options. Drove back from Auckland, got 11.6l/100ks which was better then I thought. Included some spirited Action from the V10, sounds quiet glorious through the hills. will keep a running record of maintenance and ownership here

How much would it cost for a video of you smashing those taillights?

Very nice. Audi also don't do it for me, but I'd have no worries having that (or an RS4) parked in the drive. You can't beat the price of larger Euro luxury sedans. I guess this is one benefit of having all these brain dead sheep flock to SUVs and Utes... The best all round driving vehicles on the road have now become forgotten about, they aren't as trendy as a Hyundai soft roader or similar tacky POS. The E65s are truely vomit inducing, and more so on the inside IMO... All of those buttons on the dash, centre console, doors that scream turn of the century. What sorta figure did the S8 set you back? I have my eye on this, I think these are 1000nm. Not a lot of cars for this money will come close for performance and luxury... http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=1176386498

Yip v10 petrol 5.2, Quatro, derivative of the Lamborghini V10 with a few alterations, more toque less power, just 450 hp

it really does look tidy. 230kms, if it's well maintained, that's a drop in the bucket. And Alpinweiss? Perfect. GLWS Hey, Elijah - surely you need a BMW that runs? This is perfect, yeah?

Looks like an old photo as I spy a V12 E34 touring and about 50 missing cars

I take it you found that 1 series coupe you've been looking for judging by the last picture

Say you need a full respray ?
