Description

2002 Audi A8 6.0 W12 Quattro with only 108.700km.

This beautiful example of the flagship sedan built by Audi, was sold in Spain by an Audi dealer as a company car (leasing). After five years, in 2007 a dealership bought it from the first owner and eventually sold it in October 2008 to the third owner, who kept until March 2023. It has a clean Carfax and Spanish report (ITV/MOT). The last MOT/ITV was validated until March 2023, so the car will be deliver with a new one.

The short wheelbase W12 is a very rare iteration of the first gen A8, and one that was very groundbreaking at the time, of which, according to the seller, only 750 cars were built. This sedan, was built with the famous aluminium, Audi Space Frame and is powered by a W12 engine displacing 6L, that send 420hp to the four wheels, via a five speed automatic gearbox.

The exterior is finished in dark blue. It was repainted to its original color and, as it can be seen in the pics, it's in great shape. The forged aluminum 18" wheels look amazing give this relatively rare A8, a very classy look. The seller states that this car never had any accidents.

The interior, as it is expected from such a high end car, is in very good condition. It remains completely original and shows some signs of wear. The leather seats look well and are very comfortable; they are in good shape but have some sings of wear, normal for the age of the car. This A8 has a lot of options, such as the three screens seen in the car made by Alpine with rear TV, the curtains, heated and electric seats front/rear, sunroof, a Nokia phone and many other features that only the best cars of the time had. Everything works as it should for a twenty year old car and the only know issue is that sometimes, the rear electric curtain, falls down.

The mighty W12, is in good shape and runs properly. It shows some superficial wear and tear, normal for the age of the car, in the aesthetic cover on the intake manifold. The car was just serviced for a total of 6.000 euros and there's invoices to prove that. In May 2023, the gearbox and the transmission were rebuilt.

The seller can assist with transportation and paperwork.

The vehicle is located in Madrid, Spain.

Good condition: visible signs of wear and general ageing
