S8 vastly superior to discovery,was the audi flagship and 40mpg on gas,not to be sneezed at,bose hi fi and double glazing nice but i'd rather hear that v8 with its 360 horses

Isn't that a bit pricey for a 1998 S8?

I'd expect a 1998 model to be the 340hp version.

Not so sure you can fit a towbar to them either

And the 40mpg figure on LPG is misleading. You're only getting ~20mpg on the gas. It's much cheaper than unleaded so you spend less to do the same miles
