Find your perfect A8

The A8’s blend of performance, comfort and serenity are wedded to a beautifully built, practical and well-equipped interior. In fact, by a whisker, it beats the Mercedes S-Class, which shows just how good to drive and be driven in the A8 is.

This ultimate version of the S8 brings a panoramic glass sunroof, massage front seats and an Extended Leather Pack. You also get digital matrix LED headlights, which are said to allow a greater range of adjustment than conventional matrix lights so they can better illuminate the lane you’re in on the motorway or widen the pool of light they produce for dark rural lanes – all without dazzling oncoming traffic.

The high-performance S8, with a 563bhp 4.0-litre V8 petrol, is blisteringly quick and has traction aplenty with standard four-wheel drive.
