Does anyone have a video of the Audi S8 beating the R8 in a drag race on Fifth Gear on discovery?.

Bloke at work is on about it and not going to believe it until i see the video.

Great video. The Porsche vs jet is really good.

There is a good reason its faster, its got 520bhp and 650NM torque from 1700rpm and its got an 8 speed box.

It will fly to 100mph.

I can see owners round here needing to bolt the thing to the floor to stop it getting nicked.

They spent the whole show telling you about the Porsche vs jet and when they finally show it it was hardly that great. All the porsche had to do was turn 180 degrees. Hardly showing off its great handling

Porsche v jet was a complete waste of time. VBH should go, can't stand those stupid faces she pulls.

A8 got a very high "comfort" rating in a Winding Road summary I saw recently. Wonder if the S8 is nearly as comfortable as it could be a great all rounder? Looks like an A4 S line which is perfect for blending in.
