The 2002 Audi S8 for buyers

We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no 2002 Audi S8 for sale by us right now. Thinking about the 2002 Audi S8? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.

Before you sign for the S8

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

What the figures tell you

Power: the 4.2L 8-cylinder; drive: all-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

Plan on about 47 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 15.7 L/100 km. Expect about $27.48 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

When the S8 makes sense

It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

The S8 in everyday use

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. In plain terms, its 510 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.

Drive it on your own roads

Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. A test week in the S8 tells you more than any review. Rent the S8 for a week and see how it fits your life.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

Running costs

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $274.80 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.

Your move

Tell us the car you are considering, and we will help where we can.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2002 Audi S8 from us first.
