Description
The car was imported from Germany in 2008 and has since had six registered owners. The current owner acquired the vehicle in 2023 as part of a car collection from an estate. Due to limited space, he has decided to part with his Audi A8 W12.
The odometer reads 139,026 km, but as the service book and owner’s manual were lost during the estate cleanup, the accuracy of this figure is unknown. However, since 2014, recorded mileage from vehicle inspections aligns with the current reading.
The current owner has recently changed the engine oil and filter, but as the car has mostly been parked in a garage since 2019, a general service check is recommended.
The car passed inspection in 2024 and is approved for the road until July 31, 2025. Reportedly, fewer than 20 Audi A8 W12 D2 models are registered in Sweden.
For this sale, the car has only been washed for photography, and a full interior and exterior detailing would further enhance its appearance.
Includes spare wheel, jack, and wheel tools, as well as two keys.

Condition
-
Mechanical condition
6.0-liter W12 engine with a rated output of 420 hp, paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission. The engine and gearbox run smoothly.
As the car was previously deregistered, no highway test drive was conducted—only a short drive around the block. No issues were noticed during this test.
Equipped with navigation, a sunroof, and air conditioning (navigation system not tested). -
Interior condition
Stylish leather and suede interior, with minor wear on the driver's seat. The suede section is slightly pilled (see pictures).
-
Exterior condition
Gives a clean and well-maintained impression. The aluminum body has few exterior blemishes.
Scratch mark on the rear fender edge, affecting only the paint.
Lower decorative trim on the front door is glued.
Small dent in front of the driver’s door handle (see pictures).
Overall, the condition is on the higher end of the scale for a 23-year-old unrestored car. -
General condition
A sought-after enthusiast car with few owners. Can be further improved with minimal effort. A future classic.

Facts about the model
The Audi A8 was launched in 1994 as the successor to the Audi V8. It featured permanent all-wheel drive and an aluminum body, making it lighter and more powerful than many competitors.
The first-generation D2 was available with engine options ranging from 2.8 liters to 4.2 liters Quattro, but only the V6 version could be paired with a manual transmission.
From 2001, the Audi A8 was offered with the W12 engine—a compact 12-cylinder, 6.0-liter gasoline engine producing 420 hp. The engine was essentially built from two VR6 engines, making it remarkably compact for a 12-cylinder unit.

- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
