I sell for my brother (since he has "migrated" to Saudi Arabia for 2 years) whose Audi S8 6-speed switch BJ97 from first possession. Since the ladle is in a beautiful condition and apart from the chassis is still completely original, I try not to sell it to a relegated heater under value. For this purpose I build a small homepage with pictures and details about the vehicle, as with every sale of one of my cars.
Since I have not yet owned an A8 or S8 and was only allowed to drive with it here and there (am from the V8 league), I have some questions to tell the potential buyer no nonsense. I'd be happy if you could answer them to me.
- Is it the first version of an S8 or is it already face-lifted (see photo in annex) ? He is, as I said, a 1997er, but already has Xenon, shared climate, radio ZV, small nav, etc. etc.
- What do the S8 have on it as standard for a braking system? Porsche? Or HP2 like the A8?
- Were the S8 locked off at 250 km/h or were they always "open"? My brother's leaving. Tacho also 310 on BAB, therefore the question.
- Are the Recaro leather shell seats or "normal" A8 sports leather seats? They also have a cushion adjustable in all directions. Balg worked in the backrest.
- What's the root wood in the S8? ==References== What's that color? Is the leather in black also called graphite as in the V8?
- Is the black painting special or "only" normal black metallic as seen in the picture?
- Was Servotronic standard equipment?
- How many 6-speed hand switches were built and what do they usually have for acceleration values? I think my brother said something from 5.6 from 0 to 100, but I'm not sure anymore (I would check the manual, but the car is in Germany - where it is also registered)
I'd be happy if you could help me out there. So hopefully the car lands in good hands and not in the next ditch

IG and thank you

... siehste, das hätte mir keiner gesagt, und ist sicher auch was wert. Bzgl. Handschalter Seltenheit usw. kannst du mir auch was verraten?
