Great car, but make sure it's certified

Over the past three years, it seems like my A8L has been in the shop as much as in the garage. Fortunately, it was Certified, so except for the $50 deductible and inconvenience, it has been relatively painless. Here is a listing of problems: Thermostat (replaced along with timing belt @ 50K miles), vacuum hoses/connectors, Torque converter/Transmission (required replacement), peeling console material, etc. etc. etc....

Should the flagship retire?

Vehicle has been a constant source of satisfaction from design and function point of view. Quattro is to die for when you live on top of a mountain in NE. Car gets many looks. Classy, understated but luxurious, especially with rear and side shades up. Formula shifting and 310 HP makes it a L&P vehicle. Too bad Audi can't engineer a car that's not in for repairs as often as it's being enjoyed.

I took this car for test drive and had to have it. That 310 HP V8 is just awesome - powerful, smooth and very quiet. I cruise at 90-100 mph and can barely hear the engine running.

Car drives like a dream. Its a little slow off the line, but when it gets going, wow! Lots of room and many upgrades. You must consider when, looking in the large sedan category.
