Audi's old V10 'bahnstormer was already interesting enough; maybe even more so with Jude Law as the first ownerPromise this feature is about the Audi supersaloon more than the actor. But when some dealers will seemingly tag the ‘celebrity ownership’ to cars driven by local radio DJs, to have a car owned from new by an Academy Award nominee feels like quite a big deal. You know who Jude Law is; everybody does. If you don’t, at least one person in the household will.
Anyway, of far more relevance to PH is that Jude Law knows an interesting car when he sees one. Because in 2009,brand new. Back then there were all manner of powertrains available for the A8 for effortless, serene progress, from V8 diesel to 6.0-litre W12, because that’s just how things were in the 2000s; but rather than going for one of those, Law got the big Audi saloon with the 5.2-litre V10 in it. You know, the one that made peak power of 450hp at 7,000rpm and sounded like a big angry bear.
Furthermore, while grey with grey hardly sounds like the most interesting specification in the world, this Audi looks nicer than might be expected. The Nappa leather used inside is quite light, and Daytona Grey outside has plenty of shiny silver - the trademark mirrors caps, the wheels and the grilles - to work with so this doesn’t look like a four-wheeled rainy cloud.
Speaking of which, the condition and the mileage of this one means it’s understandably a cut above those Brave Pill-spec S8s that hovered around £10k not so long ago. The asking price is £24,950, which makes it as much as a later turbo V8 car with comparable mileage. And quite a bit more than any other V10, though only as every other example of those has now endured much more use.
