I havent been able to find anything about issues with these cars other than the standard trans problems. Anything I should look for? Looking at a few.. one with 74k one with 122k and one with about 113k. prices are reasonable (between $8k and 12k). Also I would like more info on all the options and standard features of the 97/98 a8's. any help is apreciated.

Rather than hoping you won't have a problem, why don't you buy mine that already does? I set reserve rediculously low at $5400, and it seems stuck there.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4568036738">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4568036738</a</li></ul>

Timing belt needs to be done around 95K miles. So make sure it was done (documented) when you buy an A8 or S8 that has more than 95K on the odometer.<ul><li><a href="http://www.audipages.com/usedA8.html">http://www.audipages.com/usedA8.html</a</li></ul>
