Hi all, as per my recent thread on the VAG forum, im currently tempted by an S8 V10.

Before I commit however, the very nessesary matter of running such a rare thing comes to mind. To that end, I was just wondering if any v10 audi or Lambo owners could recomend someone to look after the car for me?

Thanks everyone in advance!

I ran a C6 RS6 for eight years and used a local competent mechanic, to him it was "just a car" only time I needed to go to an Audi specialist was when special tools were required eg to reset DRC when some components needed replaced. I'm not aware of any specialists in Edinburgh but there are a couple of decent on the west coast and one near Falkirk

Good to know, thanks!

Im not adverse to traveling for maintenance. Id rather things were done right and therefore only done once.

Any experiances with V10s at Edin Audi? Ive had prior with them but that was about 12 years ago now...

Never used them, however I don't think you need to go to a main dealer, not sure most of the techs would have experience on a D3, most of the Central belt are Lookers and none of them have a good rep on Audi groups, Perth Audi are often recommended though as they are not part of the same group, however the labour rates will be main dealer high I suspect. Join the FB group called Scottish Audi clan and there might be more experience of Edinburgh based there.
