Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
This is the newly-updated Audi S8, and Mat-s on a mission to see whether it has what it takes to compete with the BMW 7 Series and Mercedes S-Class! For starters, let-s kick off with what you-ll find under the bonnet! The A8 range kicks off with a 3-litre V6, but this S8 offers a whole lot more. Right here you-ll find a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can put down 571hp and an eye-watering 800Nm of torque! Even if it-s pretty heavy, this luxury behemoth can still reportedly hit 60mph in just 3. 8 seconds! But then again, that-s the least you-d expect from a car that comes with a starting price that-s north of -100, 000- And of course, when it comes to the interior you know you-ll be treated to high-quality materials throughout. Sure, not too much has changed compared to the previous version, but that-s no bad thing! From the dashboard upfront through to the middle seat closing mechanism in the back (trust us on this one, this is one of the most luxurious interiors around. The only question is, is it time for people to pick the S8 over the S-Class and 7 Series?

Just yesterday i saw one of those on the road. Now our roads are lightyears away from German roads and to watch this suspension work really hard was incredible. Idk if you can feel it inside the car, but for an outside observer it's striking AF. It was almost like i was watching the BOSE suspension video from 15 years ago. The wheels move up and down like crazy, but the body stays levels as a plank. Probably could drive with a full glass on the bonnet and it will never spill. Just incredible.

Well for the Audi S8 (which was in this video even though you called it an A8 half the time, I think is very well put together car. I like the driver's screen better then the other 2 big German car brands. It is far more functional than a Mercedes or BMW. I don't think this facelift moves the needle for me, but I would take this over a S-class or even the BMW M760i. It just barely edges out the M760i, but I do like the S8 better for large luxury sedans!

Pointless for Matt to dis the optical disc drive, as even without the ODD the empty upper shelf area is still there, so no increase in storage volume. Meanwhile this also shows that even with the latest MIB3 infotainment system the ODD can still be available. Problem is that most dealers worldwide somehow cannot order this accessory module for some unknown reason.

- why is it that in the UK that we can't get all of the options and enjoyment from the vehicle? - Answer: Audi UK. They decide which versions / equipment they think UK buyers would like. A lot of it is mis-guided. Manual transmission model with a reasonably sized engine? UK- No. Germany -Yes. I'm talking A4/5 type models. -

In UK many versions of different cars are not sold because of the right hand drive steering wheel. In terms of production it requires a different production line for right hand steering wheel. If UK will change and put left steering wheel like the majority of the world you will not have to bear the limitations.

I'm glad you asked, Matt. I like to start with the Swiss Ball Blitz, then roll into the Boa Constrictor. Once things have heated up, I pull out the TV Dinner and work my way into a Staircase Pogo before finishing with a Permanent Press. I can't pick one single ideal position though.

1: 28 that not true, if anything the air will fill the hole and the rest of the flowing air will pass under. which means this is actually the best solution. and no drag from any useless diffuser, it's all about looking cool.

-Would you have a 996? - - YES! I have one (2002, and I love it! Still have that light and somewhat rough feeling of the previous generations but with 320hp to play with. A true 911, affordable and so much fun!

I like the sound of the name -Matwatson-. like Madonna, it rolls of the tongue. the s8 grill looks like the bottom row of shiny bits fell off; the sport grill looks like a grocery market package tray.

I dunno why people think this is a good looking car. I find it real ugly. The 1990s car had a very special presence, this modern iteration just looks gawky to me. It remains a No from me.
