We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2016 Audi S8 for sale by us right now. We do not lease cars. A monthly rental has no long contract: each booking runs up to 365 days. This page puts the 2016 Audi S8 in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the S8
NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 6 complaints with NHTSA, most often about service brakes, electronic stability control (esc) and power train; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Under the hood
The powertrain to know here is the 4.0L 8-cylinder turbo, with all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
It is rated at 13.1 L/100 km combined, so budget about 39 litres for 300 km. Every 100 km costs about $22.93 in fuel at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$4,550 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
What to expect from the S8
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. With 425 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes a family's bags for a long weekend.
A good match for
It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits client visits, weddings and special weekends.
Rent it for a week first
Rent first, buy later: a week with the S8 answers the big questions. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer.
Money matters
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $22.93 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $229.30 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular.
Picking a year and a trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
