When I was going around looking for a car not long back, We went to a car dealers with an A8 diesel in. Couldn't beleive how big they are inside, Its like driving around in your living room.

They're tiptronic so you play rally driver in a speed boat if you like.
Jambo, they're absolutely enormous, they must be at 7 meters long Plus if anything goes wrong with it, and it will, it's not going to be cheaper than the M3...

Stops people from being able to steal your TomTom at least, and makes you appreciate that it's important to have glass cover in the insurance when they do try one
