    V8 price increase, V10 stays the same

    I see Audi UK have increased the base price of the V8 by £1800 to £78800. Interestingly, the V10 price remains the same.

    that makes the difference between the two with the same options a nod over £10k - wonder if they see that difference as the sweetspot for upselling.

    Sorry, my mistake, the on the road price is actually £79820! It's almost as if they don't want anybody to buy the V8.

    I noticed how many used R8's are available and up for sale in the UK. It was amazing! Now they raise the price for a new one? LOL... Audi seems to working in a different world of economics than any that I know.

    price rise is across almost all Audi models, and is due to the low value of the Pound compared to the Euro.

    It was advertised in advance and if you ordered before 23rd Feb, the old price was available.
