Most Expensive Audi A8 Delivered
Posted 3rd March, 2007 in Audi | 1 Comment
The most expensive Audi A8L ever built, has recently been delivered. The W12-engined, armour-plated giant (obviously) came equipped with everything on the options list, and with a price tag of €520.000 ($685,880.), it costs four times as much as any other A8.
The identity of its owner hasn’t officially been disclosed, but it’s believed that the car was built for German politician Edmund Stoiber.
The armour-plating offers ballistic protection against hard-core bullets up to 7.62 millimetre calibre. Tests with hand grenades and explosives have also proved that the floor plating is able to withstand blasts from below.
The bullet-proofing of the new Audi A8 Security has been independently assessed by the German Federal Criminal Police Office (the Bundeskriminalamt). The car is certified to the highest bullet-proofing classes B6+ and B7 (European standard).
