“I’M TAKING THE RS Q8”
Of course the Ed is taking the RS Q8. He’s been deprived of fast cars for so long that the faintest whiff of a V8 has him salivating. Doesn’t matter, because I had my eyes set on something else. The Audi A8. Forget the fact that it’s a proper looker, and can hold its own against these fierce-looking SUVs beside it. The A8 is the pinnacle of luxury from Audi, and I was in the mood to indulge myself. evo India is all about the Thrill of Driving, and normal circumstances dictate we begin our reviews from the hot seat. Behind the wheel, chasing another car up a twisty road, or simply chasing happiness. But that morning, happiness was a little further behind the steering wheel than usual. So I toss the keys to the wide-eyed intern, kick my feet up and get comfortable in the back!
