Audi A8 is quite common, A8 LWB W12 quite rare, usually one or two on Autotrader, but my A8 SWB W12 sports quattro is very rare. They made a few hundred in 2004/5 as a stopgap between the old D2 S8 V8 (anyone seen the 'Ronin' car chase?) and the new D3 S8 V10 -same power, but less torque than the W12. Only about 50 right hand drive versions were sold here - I don't know how many are still on the road.
I see it's been mentioned before in this thread - just thought I'd clarify and expand on it a bit. One of the finest sports saloons of its time - utterly delightful to drive.
I absolutely love A8's. There something really cool about them and they're great Q cars.I see it's been mentioned before in this thread - just thought I'd clarify and expand on it a bit. One of the finest sports saloons of its time - utterly delightful to drive.
One of the best things I've seen in many years of motoring was an A8L Quattro absolutely monstering a 911 Carrera away from.the lights on an uphill slip road on.the A1M.
No.idea if it was chipped, but by the time the Porsche had reached the top of the slip road the Audi was in a distant figure in the outside lane.

I’m yet to understand what a rare common car is yet so here’s mine, 1 of 66. Next to the Eiffel Tower, 1 of 2.
Is this a C350 petrol? If so, only 66?! Really?!
Care to elaborate about the Mercedes? Or are we to guess what makes it so rare? We've have C350, so I'm going to go manual box.

Really?I think it's unusual for anyone who might visit a car forum not to have heard of Westfield before.

There is no definition of the word "win" that involves owning a PT Cruiser. https://www.howmanyleft.co.uk/vehicle/chrysler_pt_...

Only 80, wow when you think of all the 1 series on the road that makes this a seriously unpopular choice.
That's the second time you've tried that joke and you got ignored the first time.The BMW 130i is actually very highly rated.

In keeping with the latest fast Yaris - I can't imagine there are huge numbers of the 1.8 Yaris SR out there?
I'd never considered these to be a particularly rare car...but then i thought...how many of them have i actually seen?Not many!
But i have driven one, i really liked it, it was pretty quick and good to drive. Maybe it was just too subtle to interest anyone?

I offer an E60 550i SE manual (as seen on PH):
That's stunning, and a great little back-story to go with it.Boobonman said:

Hugely underrated car when new, now being appreciated for how great a concept it is with a naturally aspirated 270hp 3.0 straight six, RWD and all in a hatchback.
