This is a nice looking thing but the price is absolutely laughable for a 20 year old A8 -

Waft away in that for £3k and you’d think you had a bargain of the century!
But as you say, may be a ‘I really don’t want to sell this’ advert.

Absolutely magnificent. An old, moon mileage, porous Audi with a V10 for £3.5k. You've won the thread for the year.

I’ve had my eye on this -

Found the seller quite difficult to get logical answers out of but from what I can gather he’s spent a couple of grand or so recently on a radiator and some other bits.
‘Unsure’ of brand of new tyres that went on the back.
Insists everything works and nothing is damaged or broken at all.

The Designo E500 with the M273 5.5L engine is on sale again — this time from a different vendor and with a sticker price just ten percent above thread top. Marmite seats, but the useful luggage kit in the boot which I have too.

Yeah, it's about as good and realistic a price as one would hope to achieve, considering that this is the facelift in which a lot of electonics were improved, no SBC and an engine with substantially more power (some saddos even like to count the valves!) and improved emmpeegeees. Also, it's relatively well specced -- the ventilated seats being welcome, though no third bench option (which can easily be retro-fitted, no doubt).
