Default How to tell between Sport Design vs Sport Plus

Is there and easy way to tell whether an A8 merely just has the sports design package (sport seats + 20" wheels) or if it also has the Sports Plus (Sport Differential, Sport Suspension)?

Also, if anyone has driven both suspensions, how does the ride compare with/without the sport suspension. I drove a 2012 NWB where it felt a bit firmer than a 2013 LWB which I believe did not have the sport suspension. I'm wondering how much of it I can chalk up to suspension as opposed to wheelbase or wear/tear.

Thanks

Rode about the same to me. Only way I know to tell is to open the mmi options and if it allows you to set the aggressiveness of the sport diff, it has it. If not, it doesn't. Other than that, no way to tell I know of.

WIll you buy a warranty covering components other than what is covered under Audi's extended warranty for the TDI?
