Audi A8 (D2) Quattro - 2001 Model year


 Share

Recommended Posts

310 BHP 4.2 V8, 5 Valves /cylinder!
133,000 miles
Climate Control, Fast & Efficient
Heated Seats front and rear, very toasty indeed
Double Glazing throughout - (shhh, it's really quiet in there)
SatNav (needs a new disk as the 2001 disc is out of date). (I use Waze so didn't bother)

I purchased this with 120,000 miles on it as a temporary stop-gap in July 2018 when my 2001 E39 BMW went in for some major works and wouldn't be ready for a planned holiday with my adult kids. The intention was to sell on the A8 after the holiday. Instead, it's impressive and effortless performance and comfort beguiled me so much I kept it and it's shared daily driving duties with my 535 ever since. Now, a change in my job scenery and a brand new company lease car have caused space issues so rather regretfully letting go.

 

The car has a full service history up to 2015 - but not all Audi,  and this checks out with DVLA data and statements from the previous owner.

In my stewardship, the car has had the following works completed:
A new set of Pirelli's (July 2018, now + 13000 miles)
New engine RPM sensor
New all-in-one cruise control and indicator stalk
New after-market steel mesh exhaust flexi-couplings, which at £50 (£25 a pop) plus £80 labour for the pair beat Audi's £1550 quote! (Can do the aftermarket items every 4-5 years and it will never be painful).
Nearside & Offside Upper Front suspension arms
Nearside & Offside Upper Rear suspension arms
Nearside Lower Front Control Arm
Nearside Track-rod End
Nearside & Offside Front Drop-links
Offside Front upper suspension arm
In-Tank Fuel Pump
All 4 brake calipers
All 4 discs and pads

It's 19 years old so has a few marks but nothing untoward, and I have replaced some major suspension and brake issues. It's fairly well sorted for the next decade.

Please message me to view. Bring your insurance certificate and schedule if you wish to test drive it, else only I will drive.

Please call me on 07969 122 191 to arrange.
