Audi A8
The Audi A8 is a costly car to buy and own. Purchasing the diesel option will soften the expense at the pumps as well as taxes. Running costs and upkeep are high as well, but if you can afford to buy this car, you can probably afford the upkeep.
The A8 has an extremely large boot. Leg and headroom is more than ample for front and rear passengers. The cabin also provides quite a bit of storage space for miscellaneous items to be stowed. The glove box is limited on room due to the fact that it houses the CD changer, but it is sufficient.
All of the controls and dials are sensibly placed and functional. In the attempt to offer more and reduce control knobs, Audi has gone with a system similar to BMW’s iDrive system, the new system is called MMI. The system works well, but like the iDrive, it does take some practice to figure it out.
The Audi A8 delivers a more comfortable ride when all the standard features are kept (wheels, etc). The seats are supportive and firm, and are easily adjustable to comfortably accommodate most drivers.
The A8 is designed with large doors that open widely making accessing and egressing the vehicle a fairly simple task. Not only does the cabin provide adequate head and legroom for forward and rear riding passengers, but it is wide enough that passengers have plenty of elbow room as well.
The Audi A8 can be a difficult car to park. It wasn’t designed for easy parking. However, forward visibility is good, and the cars side mirror dips when the car is put into reverse. Power steering also assists in maneuvering into tight places, and parking sensors are a must have with this vehicle.

Audi A8
For such a large car the Audi A8 is super easy for a seasoned motorist to drive. The appeal doesn’t end there; the A8 has an adaptive air suspension system and Quattro four-wheel drive. The car drives and feels better once it has gained some speed.
If you can afford the Audi A8, it would make a great family car. It’s spacious and comfortable. A family could easily adjust to the A8 as their primary means of transportation. The Audi A8 could easily accommodate both long family road trips, and shorter local jaunts around town.
The A8 is definitely not a starter car. Most new drivers probably couldn’t afford it. The A8 is too large and powerful for beginner drivers, and insurance wouldn’t be affordable either. Not to mention running costs would be just as outrageous. This is not a good first car.
Audi is very popular in the lower end segments with a loyal following of customers. This has not been true in the higher end of the market. Normally beat out by the competition in the higher end of the market, Audi has rigorously marketed the A8 in a desperate attempt to reverse this trend. The Audi A8’s quality is not in question though, it is made inside and out with top-notch quality materials.
