Amazing video as always, the production quality is high whilst not being too flamboyant. Straight to facts with the personal aspect - great style!

    Great car, great vid, great subtle use of the drone.

  • @NZsarge1
    @NZsarge1 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yeah that creaking would drive me spare but I’d probably be running the stereo so it’d be less of an issue but still I’d want it sorted. The noise and potential for leaking is why I’d never spec a sunroof and in our market you don’t have the three tier package system so if you want massive spec but not the sunroof you can get it 👍🏻
    Although it’s less adventurous I guess that colour spec of your test car looked quite sharp and silver can be quite good at picking up body lines so.. Nice vid, beautiful vehicle.

  • @jasonsfraser
    @jasonsfraser 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    One thing no one seems to mention about the Q8 is how unbelievably quiet the interior cabin is (obviously I’m not talking about when you nail it, and I don’t have a creaking sunroof)....it makes it so relaxing to drive, and the B&O stereo sounds fantastic, not least of which because it isn’t competing with a lot of road noise.
    Agree on it hiding it’s size well, until you get on a narrow country road with a car coming the other way....at which point you realize it’s a monster.

    If I had to be driving an SUV, would need to be this or Velar SVA... Luckily I don’t, not yet at least, not old enough to not get into a proper car (at least half gracefully). And pleased that you called out the touchscreens - call me an OCD or not, but I just can’t see myself living with them... Can’t car manufacturers develop a material that doesn’t show finger prints? But for what it’s worth, the RSQ8 looks truly gorgeous, both inside and out!

  • @commentator_101
