		One of Audi's stated aims with the new A8 was to create the most dynamically rewarding large luxury sedans on the market, territory traditionally held by BMW.

	Audi A8 3.7 1000km car review - Motoring - MyNRMA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The A8 3.7’s standard equipment list is more generous than its rivals, with some standard features which are optional extras in the BMW and Benz catalogues.
		The A8 includes keyless entry/starting/locking (with the key in your pocket), DVD based satellite navigation, automatic air, an electronic parking brake, active front seat head restraints, audible parking warnings at both ends, a phone, alarm, and a six-stack CD player.
		The A8 uses 9-11 litres/100 km on the highway, which is average, and 16-20 litres/100 km in town, which is a bit thirsty for a small capacity V8 and higher than Jaguar’s 3.5 litre engine in the XJ8.

		For a car of this girth, the A8 is very easy to punt along.
		The A8 is aimed at the enthusiastic driver in this segment, so it's reasonable to expect a trade-off in comfort for a bit more action behind the steering wheel.
		The Sport models promise to be a little more agile, but the A8 is still not particularly involving.

	2003 A8 Road Test
		And I can reliably report that the sight of a rapidly closing long-wheelbase 6.0-liter W12 A8 is about as effective as a rocket-propelled grenade at shifting slower moving traffic.
		Audi quietly concedes that one of the reasons the top-of-the-range, long-wheelbase A8 L 6.0 quattro gains that giant chrome edged grille is that Far Eastern clientele don't like subtle statements of wealth.
		So it's tempting to buy Audi's line about this A8 being for those for whom money is no object mainly because this isn't a purchase that makes much economic sense, and mainly because I can envision these buyers having a garage full of motors to suit every occasion.

	Audi A8 - Diesel Road Test
		Delivered via six-speed tiptronic automatic transmission, this remarkable output will be reflected in the performance of the new A8 4.0 TDI quattro, which will be capable of dispatching the 0-62mph sprint in just 6.7 seconds, and where permitted reaching a maximum speed electronically limited to 155mph.
		The surprising performance of the new A8 4.0 TDI quattro will be partly attributable to the most sophisticated body shell in the sector - the aluminium Audi Space Frame (ASF), on to which aluminium panels are mounted, giving a 60 per cent reduction in weight compared to an equivalent steel shell.
		Like its petrol-powered counterparts, the A8 4.0 TDI quattro will be available with virtually every conceivable luxury, including an array of innovative options such as DVD satellite navigation, fingerprint recognition technology, adaptive cornering lighting and adaptive cruise control.

		The A8 starts at Edinburgh's East End Junction, of which David D Miller has assembled a fine photo album here - the photograph entitled "Looking west along the A8 Princes Street" gives you an idea of the impressive beginning to this road.
		The A8 continues on along Shandwick Place, a wide road flanked by some impressive Georgian buildings, to a one-way system near Haymarket station - this is the junction with the A70.
		This is an historic crossroads: the A8 meets the A74 from the south-east (and the A728 from the south).

	2005 Audi A8 Road Test
		When I was cruising along in an A8 L, I never had the need, or even the urge, to bump the slick-shifting six-speed automatic transmission into sport or manual mode and I never saw a reason to adjust the adaptive air suspension from its softest, most luxurious ride setting to its stiffest, most roll-resistant setting.
		Although space is not as generous in the A8, the rear passengers are not left to suffer.
		But, while the A8 and A8 L are both beautiful cars, I’ll give my admittedly subjective vote to the A8 simply because I think its shorter rear doors blend better into the car’s overall design.

		The A8 carries a high volume of traffic, some 75,000 vehicles per day, and the carriageway has now reached the end of its useful life.
		The A8 will remain open to traffic at all times during the works but there will be lane and junction restrictions for limited periods.
		A proportion of current A8 traffic is likely to transfer to other main routes and local roads in East Glasgow and North Lanarkshire to avoid the construction works.

		This scheme is part of a major programme of improvement measures for this important route costing a total of £13.3 million and it will bring important benefits to both motorists and to the local economy.
		Some delay and disruption to the A8 and local traffic is likely, however, a traffic management strategy during the works will ensure that this is kept to a minimum.

		I was thinking that the solution uses roads in the City of London around Bank which are now all unclassified, but that wouldn't take one through Zone 2 which doesn't come any nearer to the City than the southern bank of the Thames by London Bridge.
		I've not yet been on this track myself, but the A8 bridge was shown in a BBC TV programme last year (in the "Artworks Scotland" series, so unlikely to have been shown south of the border).
		For comparison, the second and third pictures show surviving parts of the Glasgow and Edinburgh Road: The distinctive bridge parapets are over the disused railway immediately east of Newhouse, and the neatly trimmed/planted grass verge is just west of Harthill.

		Chances are most cashed-up A8 buyers won’t care much about the fuel bill, but the little V8 does give decent fuel consumption – we recorded a 12.5-litre per 100km average during our test.
		Another nicety is the ability to unlock and start the A8 without ever needing to find the key in your pocket – there’s a convenient start button that combines finger print recognition security.
		It’s obvious the 3.7-litre Audi A8 has been created to be price competitive in the marketplace – and perhaps because of this, we think the A8’s overall direction has been lost.
