The 2003 Audi S8: before you buy

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2003 Audi S8 for sale by us right now. Before you buy the 2003 Audi S8, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

Before you sign for the S8

Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

Under the hood

Its powertrain is the 4.2L 8-cylinder with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

It is rated 14.7 L/100 km combined: about 44 litres every 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $25.73, and a 300 km weekend about $77.19. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$5,150 a year for 15,000 miles.

Space and size

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is 510 litres, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.

Who the S8 suits

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. Its all-wheel drive suits winter roads and trips to ski country.

Rent it for a week first

If the S8 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent first, buy later: a week with the S8 answers the big questions. Drive the S8 on your commute before you commit to it.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $257.30 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,150 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $25.73 in fuel.

Choosing the right one

If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
