Anyone else from the UK waiting for their S8? The first batch are being built this week. (Mine was done yesterday) Sadly though, I won't be available to tale delivery when it arrives at the dealer as I'm away on an USAR exercise. Damn!

So, you are in the .... ? Some kind of service...?

No- it's an independent, voluntary, civilian rescue team. Most of our work is earthquakes and floods, though we do other work sometimes.

I can confirm that I will be available to collect your car for you and keep it safe until you are able to collect it. I will also provide a free running-in service! :wo:

Pics and write up-when it arrives please! :0:

Nice try, Rupert. Certainly will take some pics and do a write-up when I've got some time.

When you have it , can you say what color are the exhaust tips? .
In the two S8 that I have seen they were almost gold tinted , may be the heat? , just curiosity .

And enjoy , the sound is amazing .:applause:
