Default Bought a S8!

08 with 56k and I think it has every option but you guys will have to tell me:

Extended leather
Lane assist
Side assist
Solar panel sunroof
Rear lumbar adjustments
Door assist

What did I miss?

I'll have a bunch of questions which I already do but wanted to introduce the car and thank the members for all of the help and the incredible resource of search threads! Couldn't have done it without this place!

Adaptive cruise.

I saw that car advertised.

Hopefully you did your homework. I know of one S8 that had it's engine pulled due to salt water immersion. It was a ticking time bomb and blow it did.

Btw there were a few blk/blk for sale. Where did you see the one you're thinking of?

Default it should have the options on the cruise lever

on the left of the steering column or on the front lower grill, you should have the sensor



Cheers,

That's a lovely car! Enjoy it.

To check whether you have adaptive cruise, check if you cruise control stalk has a distance switch.
