Don't worry about the gas milage man. My 2000 4.2 gets 23-25mpg taking it easy, closer to 20mpg if I hammer on it all day. This is about the same as my old 2000 Volvo s70 which only had a 2.4 liter. The A8 is super light for it's size because it's frame and suspention are almost entirely aluminium. A friend of mine has a 2004 A6 Allroad with a 2.7 turbo and he only gets about 16-19mpg. Plus I only paid $10,000 for the A8 he paid almost $35,000 for the Allroad.
sounds good and while gas is cheap it won't be a problem. how are the repair bills? i've heard they can get steep. but i don't know if that is going with an audi dealer or any old garage.
my brother has the older one, 99 reg. not half as nice as the newer one but still an awesome fuckin car. metallic silver with a touch of blue. got it with northern(irish) plates for less than 3000euro. with irish vrt and a years tax, the car is standing him less than 9000 quid and in mint condition. a far cry off the 90 or 100,000euro price tag new. sweet as fuck.

@gaae2000 that is a normal thing with expensive big cars.
They consume to much petrol and cost to much road tax.
This makes them unpayable for people with not enough money
but than again buy a second hand A8 and you get the most car you can get for less money

Depreciation for the first 2 years = $20k,
after that $10k every year....why?...could it be the 4yr Limited Warranty?
