It looks MINT! Can't go wrong for €2,500

That's my old one!! It's had a few things done since: Alloys, clear front & rear lights and black grille.

That car has really been taken care of. The history is incredible.

Alloys , tyres, and lights prob cost 2500 k

What size are those rims? Maybe it's the camera angle but they look too big. Mine were 18's. Pretty sure those rims are spurious too.

Advert says they're 19's

Clear lens', M pars and black grilles are overdone imo.

Stallingrad

That steering wheel is leaking oil.

Over budget slightly but probably worth every cent.

Needs different alloys but for €1,750... Looks alright.

Whatever about the rest.


You cant over do M Pars. I have your coat here ready for you.

That S8 is really lovely, the seats looks amazing. I dont know exactly what it is, but for some reason I prefer the whole look of this S8 to the next one. D3 or whatever its called.

I looked on the ROS export site, I only see a VRT rebate of €1200, not €2000 as stated in the advert. At €5k is this a bit overpriced? Could it be that when people realise there is reclaimable VRT they just add that amount to the asking price, on the assumption that it might be exported? Doesnt do much for people wanting to use it in Ireland!

19" paras are overdone. Sevens looks perfect on 18s, anything bigger is total chav.

EDIT: This isn't the first time we've seen that S8. I have to wonder why it's sitting arse down in the first photo.

Did that poster state the size ?


As i said M Paras are a lovely classic design and are not 'overdone'

Re the BMW 7 4.4 linked in the last page, is it me or does that look like a Japanese import?
The rear part with the square number plate plus it seems to be in KPH??
Don't think I'd bother with it if that was case as it will be maxed out at 180kph

I agree with you in that the 19" m-pars don't look quite right, but I don't think it's the wheel size.

20inch Alpinas look fantastic on an e38

BillJ

I dont tink it's the size I just think it's a very deep dish is the issue. I'm not against the deep dish look but I agree it's too much in that example.
