Original AUDI S8 in-depth REVIEW - this vintage blend of power and comfort is absolute joy to drive!

The luxury large executive saloon class has been around for a long time, but when Audi brought out the D2 platform A8 and gave it a V8 engine, the first S8 was born and 25 odd years later is looked upon as a bit of a pioneering car in large sports saloons.
I was lucky enough to know someone who owns one as his toy and he let me take it out for the day and it blew my socks off.
In this video, I’ll tell you everything I can about it and why there is so much to love about it all these years later.

Great review! Loved the enthusiasm and learning about a car I haven't seen much out on the roads. What a beast.

Thanks Wayne. A beast indeed!
