Few people who spend some time in the 2014 Audi A8 L would deny their lifestyle had changed for the better. The unique quality of the experience is well worth the drive and outlay.
Effortless drive, Great passenger experience, Engine performance and the quietest diesel ever!
What's surprising, though, is that this isn't a wallowing, softly-sprung boulevardier - one could equally steal out into the early morning hours and have more than a little fun at the wheel.
Audi delivers lots of goodies. Just reading through the standard equipment list requires a meal break.
The cabin is lined with leather, including across the dashboard. The huge front seats are electrically adjustable in a myriad of directions and are heated and ventilated and massage capable for those long days behind the wheel.
Arrayed on the console is Audi's MMI with a little slot for a data SIM card to bring Google Maps overlays on the sat-nav (if there's no signal, it reverts to the stored maps) and also adds in-car wi-fi.
The MMI features DAB digital radio, television, DVD and an onboard hard drive for music. You can also select the drive mode from eco through to sport as well as set the ride height for the air suspension in a suspiciously similar way to its (distant) cousin, the Bentley Continental.
Climate control is split across the front passengers as well as the rear with all able to choose their own temperatures. There's also active cruise control, active LED headlights and tail lights, quattro drivetrain and the always brilliant eight-speed ZF automatic transmission.
Give your family extra protection with these features:
