Still, show it the kind of road that’s more common in Britain, with lots of missing scars, abrasions and bumps, and the mask can occasionally slip, exposing the odd noise through the cabin.
This has always been the A8’s biggest objective weakness – and still remains so today with the sheer amount of chassis tech, including adaptive air suspension and variable dampers as standard. Which is very frustrating.
