That is the best looking interior I have ever laid eyes on! Very jealous!

I think since the rear sunshade is broken you should sell it. Cheap. To me.

And you should get me a job in Saudi. Just kidding. I almost went to work over there. I figure 3 years and I could come back home an find a $15/hr job and live out the rest of my days. But then I found the job I have now and I get to go home every night.

And on top of that, being in Montana, you can drive your A8 the way it should be driven not like us, or at least not like me in Illinois (:

That is true. I love Montana but it can be challenging to make money out here in the boonies.

Default Nothing so far

Took the door apart and manually wound it back up. Could not get the spring to re engage. Will prob have to buy a replacement 😞

To other posted. Montana would be a good state for running an S8, but believe me, so is Saudi. Only $80 U.S. for a ticket and you can get as many as you can afford. No points, no insurance costs. (More of a speed tax than a penalty) I have seen guys regularly cruise along the highway on road trips at 180-190 km/h for hours at a time. And since gas is so cheap here, you can afford to. Premium is less than 20 cents a litre.
