Thumbs up Fancy an A8 in Silver

Hi People,

Not sure how true this is (received a mail today), but thought you'd appreciate either way...

This Audi A8 was made for a sheik in the United Arab Emirates.





As well as it being silver in colour, it is also MADE of silver!!!!

Whatever it's made of, I like!!

Hmmm nice.

Must take a lot of polishing to keep the oxidation at bay. It must also be a deathtrap at night with all the reflections and resulting confusion to other road users.

My current car is any A8 and I've heard about incorrect tools causing corrosion to the ali body. How do I know what tools I can and cant use on it?

No, they varnished it after the ali body had been polished.
