For those who I'd like an A8 (Oi! jackhackettuk - much cheapness)

shouldn't that be decent one, don't see any others listed! mazda seat is nice by the way

Damn you that looks stonking.

Sorry old chap... buying an R6 tomorrow, so all my available spondoolies are allocated to that.

Does it feel at all like a 300bhp/400nm (295lbs/ft) car, that lurches to 60 in just under 7 seconds? Or is it a case of "Oh, I'm doing 120, I better slow down..." ? To be fair the performance figures aren't bad at all considering they weigh over 1800kg with a driver on board, dread to think how much they weigh when the, no doubt huge, fuel tank is full! I bet you can get over £100 of fuel in it these days can't you? Although, PeteM once said to me the best engines to drive are petrols where the bhp and lbs/ft are nearly the same hehe :-)

I looked up the performance figures cos I was just interested as Lord Doug had been talking to me about his mates S8 (which in earlier 340bhp was only

Just as a matter of interest Timo, on the off chance - have you ever taken it to the 155 limiter? If so, did it actually exist? Because on Top Gear etc it's often suggested Audis go well beyond where the limiter should be - TG RS6 review for example, not the new V10 job, the previous 450bhp one, Clarkson mentions doing 170 on their runway!

Heh, that would be my mate's S8. He's been banding about that it has

However, my mate's is still amusingly brisk. It costs about £90 to fill. Timo's is no doubt similar.

Well, these days it can cost noticeably more than 90 quid to fill (it's got a 90l tank). But then again, that'll get you about 500 miles of driving...

Timo Geusch gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying:

FFS, my ol' 2.0 XM used to take 80-85 litres...

Email me the reserve... just out of interest, like. ;-)

TIA

I don't need to email that to you...

Seen the bit under the heading that says "no reserve"?

:P

Many watchers? I was gonna 'watch' it out of interest but I didn't wanna give you false hope :-)

:-O

Taking a bit of a risk, aren't you?

Not exactly the most financially attractive of vehicles in the current climate. :-S

Yes and no. If it doesn't work at this price I can always bump up the price but I'm more interested in selling it to reduce the number of vehicles so I have to take a hit on price.

Indeed. Hence the low starting price.

You're not saying you'd schill bid, are you? That can get you thrown off EBay...

Tell you, what, sell it to me for £500 and I'll keep shtum...

No, that's not what I meant. What I meant was that sometimes I get the price wrong and the car appears to be too cheap, so people assume it's a steaming pile. So if it doesn't sell I'll put it back on with a reserve or a higher starting price to "suggest" that it's a better car.

You're too generous :)

Ok, ok, if that's the case, I'll give you £400 :-)

Ah... but I think it *might* possibly sell, for the start price. ;-)

Hehe I do that schill bidding thing all the time :-)
