I was surprised by one I saw recently on Autotrader. It was a 2004 and did not have rear lumbar adjust, nor rear heated seats or the front ventilated seats.

I dug up an interesting spec pdf which I think you'll enjoy. (if I can get it to attach)

Sounds like a "grey market" import. Happens a lot with Mercedes-Benz.

Say no more, buy it!

Biased I am.

On a serious note - any car can have issues regardless of age and km's. The servicing is critical and checking of warranty items completed on the car can give an indication if it was problematic in its early years. Thing is, an A8 is a complex car with many systems. You might buy an 06 and the air suspension comp could pack up 2 days later, or buy an 04 and the a/c control module or blower could go. Makes no difference - it will cost you if something goes wrong.

My 2c - if you've got a budget, stick it and make allowances for good maintenance. Oh, and N.blue rocks!!

Brother didn,t mean to offend you all I was saying you should be able to find an 06 for a better deal. I bought mine 2and a half years old 61,000 mi just turned 177,000 and change. Someone once gave me car advice. If your gonna buy used don,t buy the first year they introduced the new car , the manufacturer is seeing what works and what does,t . Meaning if stay with Audi A8 and when I am able to I start at the 2012 model not 2011 . Good luck and enjoy
