Today there was a lot of stuff going on in my hometown (Triathlon World Cup + lots of tourists at the spa due to the summer) so I went to check out the town, hoping to find something, and I actually did. After spotting an M3 at the back of the spa (which I'll upload soon too), I checked the town centre as well, and I found this Audi S3, although I initially thought it was a fake (despite the brakes gave it away that it should be genuine) so I just quickly shot it around to be sure. After I arrived home, I checked the Hungarian car database, and it is a genuine V10 S8, so I went back later once again to take some better photos but it was gone already, so this is all I have, unfortunately.

The S8 is such a fascinating car, a luxurious Audi with a powerful V10! Sadly I’ve only spotted one at the moment, I hope to see more in the future, although it’s one of those cars that make you feel a little bit uncomfortable spotting as the majority of the people passing by probably have no idea of what car it is and so they just look at you in a strange way. It happened to me a couple of times with the Aston Martin Cygnets 😅

Excellent narrative and spot, Greg. I was thrilled back in the day when Audi decided to pop that Lamborghini V10 engine into that low key S8. Most definitely a wolf dressed in sheep's clothing.
