The Audi V8...yes there was a model just called the Audi V8. Built between 1988 and 1993, this was Audi's flagship and the 1st one to have a V8. They ran in DTM and won back-to-back driver's titles in 1990 and 1991 with Hans-Joachim Stuck and Frank Biela. There were 2 V8s available in the D1: the 3.6L and the more familiar 4.2L. This one is a 3.6 and is a virtual time capsule. Here's the ad:

We gave one away a couple of months ago and just like last time, you have your choice of either the DTM key or the VTEC key (non-titanium model). Formawerx will also engrave it for you.

Cupra is about to get its first all-electric crossover with the Tavascan.
After the VW ID.4, the Skoda Enyaq, and the Audi Q4, it's now time for SEAT. This time the Seat crew is testing on the Nürburgring in order to get their version of the VW Group siblings the sportiest of them all.
