I got bored with the 530i and chopped it in against a 2018 Audi S5 (B9). I px'd it at Audi Poole and it's reappeared just back up the road from me in Horsham... It's a tad overpriced imo; I paid £20k for it Approved Used from BMW in October last year with the 1yr BMW warranty and put 5k miles on it in the 10 months I had it.

This is what replaced it:



I also have Wnker Doors..!



Still miss the 8 though, perhaps one day I'll have another.

Navarra blue is the best colour for these IMO.

Good cars, but the wife got fed up of the stiff suspension so mine went. Still miss it.

I thought so too until I saw this:





Navarra Blue dropped to second place once I saw that one... That green is stunning.

Not finding the suspension too firm personally, I think it rides really well (mine's on standard suspension). It's no firmer than the 840i was imo.

There's a sub forum for Audi, Seat, Skoda and VW lumps > https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&...

I'm well aware.

However this thread's pretty much dead now the lease deal's done - we've had people posting pics of other cars they moved on to posted in here over the last few pages. Can you derail a thread that isn't actually going anywhere now...?

[Regbuser]

Threads are derailed somewhere every minute of every day; and a kitten dies every time...
Won't someone think of the kittens ?!?!

That green with red looks spot on. I originally ordered Navarra but then fell in love with the red leather interior and didnt like the blue/ red combo so ended up with grey exterior / red interior.

Gunna get told off by regbuster now for talking about Audis again

Now it looks the government is moving banning new petrol and diesel cars from 2030 to 2035 it may well impact on second hand values and demand - if I had a spare 40k and a 2 car garage I’d go for another 8GC as there are some bargains out there ATM IMO.
