I'm going to buy a bigger memory card for my camera, so that I can take some more videos when the icy roads are gone :)

VERY nice car you've got there, nice you've made some videos. It's quite fast from 0-100 kph. I've mesured around 6.1 seconds. How fast can it go ?

[Skaala]

I've measured about 5,6 seconds (0-100) on summertires and on dry asphalt (No ESP), and the speedo passed 270kph (didn't max) on our way home from Köln. So the modified sport program really worked.. top speed is so far unknown :? :D

Nice ride indeed...Looking forward to some additional vids :wink:

Very nice car! I like big 4door saloons with a lot of power, you don't expect. May I ask what changes that S8 engine mode includes?

Performance ECU is my guess...However, 25hp addition would be quite a good achievement for a NA engine.But per cent wise , it's not that much so it could be.

I simply adore the new A8! Such a nice and big and perfect quality car! Yo are very lucky to own one.

[BADMIHAI]

Damn ...did brembo just own him? :shock: Nice car regardless. 8)

[Skaala]

I dont think I owned him, but I think its one in his familiys car not his......and by the post he made it sounds like its his....... :P :wink:

-it was'nt ment like that

Could have made a more clearly topic, I'll edit it. :oops: It's not mine in legal terms no, but I do drive it :D

It was bought used by a dealer in Köln in Germany and we were told the Sport program for the car (engine and susp.) was modified by the previous owner. He called it an S8 mod, but nobody really know what the next S8 is gonna be, most likely because the previous S8 had 360hp..

You are lucky the Skaala family to possess an A8 "The flagship of Audi". It's a car which has a lot of prestige and which is also sporty. The Quattro system is in its element in the snow of Norway. :wink:

[Skaala]

For the exact same prise of the Audi A8 in Germany you get this in Norway. Same year of model

Excellent interior!

me like all the pretty lights in the car

[Skaala]

superb!!

that's the best Large 4 Door sedan in the world, in my opinion. I drove one on a small track once and it was fantastic...

i see he also got the RS6 wheels...very nice :)

what company did you have the retuning done by? is it an ECU tuning or an actual engine re-tuning?

I'm not sure, remember it was bought second hand through a dealer, but I think it mabe was ABT, some of the other cars at the used-car dealer had ABT work done, mostly cosmetic.

Nice and elegant car, thanks for the custom shot and for "admitting" it is you dad's (nothing bad about it obviously :))
