Henny 0 Posted October 21, 2005 oh my.... where can I get £50k from... :| 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted October 21, 2005 Thats the starting price Henny.. I shouldn't imagine you get the V10 version for that much! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted October 21, 2005 Jim, that's the starting price for the S8 though, which means you get that engine, just not all the electric toys and extra gubbins... ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corradophil 3 Posted October 21, 2005 Cool, £50k for an executive car powered by a modified Lamborghini engine, sounds reasonable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted October 21, 2005 Hmmm, just got a finance quote. (For a laugh). Purchase Price: £50,000 Deposit: £0.25 36 Monthly Payments of £1631 The Finance company has an acceptance fee of £159 on the first payment. They liked my deposit... :D Ok, so I need to stop sleeping, and do a second job to earn another £20k (after tax!) to afford one... ProPlus anyone? ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr Forinor 0 Posted October 21, 2005 ProPlus anyone? ;) Hang on, lemme buy shares in that company first :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted October 21, 2005 Problem is the big big Audi's depreciate like fury.. I think even paying it back at £1,500 month would still see you losing big money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedi-knight83 0 Posted October 21, 2005 yeah you can pic up the old 4.2 v8 s8 now for silly money! i saw one with about 80k with all the toys for under £6k!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted October 21, 2005 Problem is the big big Audi's depreciate like fury.. I think even paying it back at £1,500 month would still see you losing big money. For a 25p deposit, I'd leave the country. Very quickly. (In a Lambo'd engine Audi, funnily enough) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walesy 0 Posted October 21, 2005 there was a 55 plate silver lambo parked in my street earlier....he belted it off when he left aswell and the noise the thing made was awesome. :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted October 21, 2005 Forgot to mention the 'Comments' section I got back from the quote: Now I have given u a quote if u don’t go for it I will have to send my boys round to kick your mother****ing ass. In case you're wondering, friend of mine did the quote.. hehe. Would be scary if not! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy665 0 Posted October 21, 2005 Was in a dealer last week and watched someone walk in and order a metallic black A8 W12 and a Q7, he asked for a 40k deposit to be taken off his Amex - sickening Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
