Guess what happened when Leasing.com loaned Howard our 2021 Audi S8 for a review. He only went and found it the best car that Audi makes! But it’s not just the 4.0 V8 S8 engine that made his mind boggle, it was something else entirely; how it drives!

The Audi S8 is a pinnacle of automotive engineering, combining elegance and exhilaration in a seamless fusion. With its commanding presence and luxurious design, this high-performance sedan redefines the boundaries of what's possible on the road. Underneath its sophisticated exterior lies a formidable powerplant, typically a V8 engine, delivering a symphony of horsepower and torque that propels the S8 from 0 to 60 mph in breathtaking speed. The interior is a sanctuary of opulence, where sumptuous materials and cutting-edge technology merge effortlessly. The S8 offers an agile and engaging driving experience, aided by Audi's renowned quattro all-wheel-drive system. It's not merely a car; it's an embodiment of automotive excellence, offering a perfect blend of power, prestige, and precision for those who demand the very best in luxury performance. The Audi S8 is a testament to Audi's commitment to pushing the boundaries of innovation and delivering an unmatched driving experience.

As Ritchie reports, it’s by far not only his most favourite car in its range but also his preferred daily, over any of the RS cars; no he wasn’t drunk, we checked. He even prefers this over his own 7 Series BMW. (It's not a new one he wanted us to tell you!)
