These figures are provisional

The deposit, the excess and the mileage terms for this car come from our catalogue data, and we are confirming that data with the insurer while the fleet is finalised. Read them as the shape of the terms rather than as a quotation. What binds is your written quote and your hire agreement, and we check the specific car against the specific driver before you plan around it.

The deposit is refundable and held against a card in the hirer's own name at handover — it is not taken online and it is not part of the rate. Deposits, excess and driver criteria

About the Audi S8

It pairs a 563bhp twin-turbo V8 with predictive suspension that reads the road ahead through a camera and adjusts each wheel before it arrives. Dates are confirmed with a partner first.

A 563bhp limousine that hides it completely. The S8 is the quiet answer to a Bentley Flying Spur, at a fraction of the monthly figure.

At a glance

  • 563bhp 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with 800Nm
  • 0-62mph in 3.8 seconds
  • Predictive active suspension reads the road with a forward camera
  • Rear-wheel steering and quattro all-wheel drive
  • Five seats with a rear cabin built for being driven in

What makes the Audi S8 different from a normal A8?

The engine and the suspension. A 563bhp twin-turbo V8 replaces the standard car's V6, and predictive active suspension uses a forward-facing camera to lift or press each wheel before it meets a bump. The result reaches 62mph in 3.8 seconds and still isolates the rear seats from a ruined road surface.

Is the S8 a good car to be driven in?

One of the best at the price. The rear cabin is quiet, the seats recline and heat, and ride quality is the point of the car rather than an afterthought. Rear-wheel steering makes it easier to place than its length suggests, which matters on a hotel forecourt or in a multi-storey.

How much does it cost to hire an Audi S8?

Expect a refundable deposit near £3,500 and a matching insurance excess, with 12,000 miles a year included and roughly £1.75 a mile beyond. The exact terms are set out in writing before you decide.

Is an S8 better value than a Bentley Flying Spur?

For a driver, arguably. The S8 matches a Flying Spur to 62mph, rides at least as well and hires for a good deal less. What it does not have is the Bentley's cabin materials or the badge, which for some hires is the entire point. If the car is being photographed, take the Bentley; if it is being driven, take the S8.

Provisional. The age, licence period, points tolerance, deposit and excess above are being confirmed with the insurer while the fleet is finalised — read them as the shape of the criteria, not as a decision on your hire.

If you are under the minimum age for this car, or short on licence years, say so when you enquire. We will point you at something you can hire rather than let you find out on the day.

Questions about hiring the Audi S8

How old do I need to be to hire an Audi S8?

Partners typically ask for drivers aged 30 or over with at least five years on a full licence and no more than six penalty points. We confirm the criteria for the specific car before anything is booked.

Can the S8 be supplied with a driver?

Not on this arrangement. Everything in the catalogue is self-drive hire and the person named on the agreement does the driving. If you need a chauffeur, tell us and we will point you to a firm that does it properly.

Is the S8 economical on a long run?

For a 563bhp V8 it is reasonable — cylinder deactivation and a 48-volt mild-hybrid system help at a steady motorway cruise. Expect low twenties to the gallon at a legal pace and considerably less if you use the performance.

How sourcing a car works

What does "in our fleet" mean?

It is our car. We own it, we insure it, we maintain it and we deliver it — we are the rental company, not a middleman. The rate shown is our rate and the availability is real.

What does "we can source" mean?

That car is not one of ours. We arrange it through a vetted partner, so the price shown is a guide and the availability is subject to confirmation. We confirm both with you before anything is agreed.

Why show cars you do not own?

Because the alternative is pretending we own them. Our own fleet is finite and the range people want is wider, so we list both and label which is which. You can see the full choice and know exactly what you are getting.

Is a sourced car more expensive?

Not necessarily, but its rate is a guide until the partner confirms it. We come back to you with the confirmed figure before you commit — the price never changes on the day.

Tell us the dates. We’ll confirm the car.

Send us the dates and a delivery postcode — that is all we need to start. Someone here will come back to you with what is genuinely available and the full cost, deposit, excess and mileage included.
