Audi S8 roadtest (english subtitled)
De Audi S8 heeft twee cilinders moeten inleveren. Zeg maar dag tegen die heerlijke V10. We voelen hem aan de tand in het noorden van Spanje, en komen tot een verrassende conclusie.
Klokje rond - Audi A8
De eerste auto van Jeroen Reekers was een Suzuki Alto en anno 2011 rijd meneer in een Audi A8 met achtcilindermotor. Groter kan de kloof nauwelijks zijn! Nu zijn er wel meer verschillen met dat oude trouwe Japannertje van weleer te bedenken. Of valt het in de praktijk wel mee met de kosten? We zijn benieuwd naar het verhaal achter deze vette limo.

Audi RS3 review - Auto Express

An intoxicating five-cylinder warble reverberates around the mountains as we accelerate out of yet another switchback hairpin, all four tyres scrabbling for grip. Of course, the craggy walls have heard a similar sound before.
That's because we're driving the new Audi RS3 Sportback up the famous Col de Turini in the south of France -- the very place where its ancestor, the original Sport Quattro, won the 1984 Monte Carlo Rally in the hands of ex-world champion Walter Röhrl.
