LUXOBARGE (sub5k) of the week/day

Just an idiot dealer so. Sometimes you have to wonder what they are doing.

Brasso

Older A8 3.7 Quattro, 125k miles, NCT 10/18 and asking €2,300. Looks like it could be a reasonably genuine car.

A 07 Gs450h for just over 3.5k and it's up a while but only dropped to this price now!

Any idea on the minibus in that clip what price it's going for? Looks like it needs bit of body work at this stage )

Add the almost two grand price of road tax to the purchase price and you nearly have enough for a chape tax '08 model.

Not many 08 models at 2K extra though! Their should be but they are dreamers.

CheezePleeze

Here's an 08 for less than 5 grand.

He says the road tax is only €95 - is that per month!

Furzy

That’s a GS300 not a 450h.
€95 tax is because it’s registered as a PSV. Private tax is €1495 vs €750 for a 2008 GS450h.

Ya I think it's 9 years or lower..

Furzy

No it’s less than 10 years for a taxi BUT AFAIK there’s no age limit on a Limo.

No age limit on a limo, this is to facilitate classic PSV limos for use as wedding cars etc.

Cars on an early plate have a one time exemption of allowing the car to reach 15 years of age. Once the vehicle is over 10 years it's subject to 6 monthly Nct and suitability tests. Limo's can be any age but are subject to 6 monthly testing once over 10.

Bit over budget & big-ish miles but maybe worth a look (they don't up for sale often enough to dismiss without a physical look imo)

@Truckermal...?

That's down to €5,850 now! What's my own worth, I suppose 2k and a bit considering it needs nothing.

Greybottle

I like this, the black on black with the lighter coloured wood suits it. Black grill and 5 spoke alloys set it off well. Slightly strange Ad, but a decent price with 6 weeks tax thrown in to boot. Pics are a few months old.

NCT 09/18 €3700

Funny you should post that because I was watching the Top Gear where Jezza was test driving that this week!

Wonder how easy it would be to remove the ultra tack tinted windows from the back?

No that would only take about 10 seconds.

IIRC it was advertised a couple months ago on DD for 1650 and very, very poor ad at that. Somebody bought it, then quick valet and back on the market for 5950, pure chancer. There's a badge on the grill which is a bit of giveaway, it also had funny number plates back then. Not sure why bumpers have chrome strips, I think they were black, much nicer IMO, just like my S-type is

I've always wondered what these d2 A8s are like. Has anyone here owned/driven one?

Such a weird spec, the rear seats are adjustable and full rear screen / nav, heated and massage front seats but not comfort seats, stupid low miles, low price, nct and tax.

So tempted but with the NCT out since September it could potentially be a minefield, with the tax at €150 a month either the car or the owner has issues not to NCT it for €55 :pac:.
