^ no it's def not a angiemobil
It's such a good allround car. So much torque, you can easily overtake anyone on the street. (4.2FSI and S8 are horrible lazy engines in comparison). Then, there's no other car you can drive really fast while still having just a 9-11 liter fuel consumptions. Drive it a normal you reach 8 liters / 100 kms. With a full tank your range is 1000 km. The interior is the best in class and it's comfy enough to travel for hours. Best sedan imho.

It is not my car, but I drove it thousands of kilometers. To Italy, to Munich, to Frankfurt, to Switzerland (snowboarding), in winter, in summer, many Highspeed Autobahn runs, traveled with cruise controle and so on. So I know every aspect of that car and I really love it. D3 4.2 TDi, with an ABT tune to about 900 Nm (according to abt, and I believe that because the tuning was very noticeable).
I also did about 1000 km in an D3 S8 and D3 4.2FSI. Both lazy and "slow" cars (in comparison) in everyday traffic.

Jag XJ Supersport.

The S is outdated. The A8 is a fantastic car let down by a weak engine. 7 is my second choice.

XJ Portfolio.

A8 is my second choice, although is comfortable inside.
S-Class + 7 Series is a NO to me.
