   Hi everybody,

I'm a W8 owner from Finland. My beauty is 2002 Variant and it has been working like a dream for 190000 kilometers (~120000 miles, right?) for now. The maintenance has been quite cheap so far and the only problems I have faced have been minor ones: the motor of the rear window sweeper died a year ago (new motor cost 130 euros, changed it myself) and another problem was the broken GPS antenna & radio (the radio was fixed by Blaupunkt's service and the antenna was replaced). That's it! Nothing more to complain!

Gotta say the W8 is the best car I have ever driven, it's really been worth every penny.  The sound of the engine always puts me in a good mood... purrs like a kitten when idle and roars like a lion other times... it was love at first sight... ahh! 

It was nice to find this site and see there are other enthusiastic W8 owners who want to share knowledge & experiences as well :) Cool site & good work whoever administrates this place!! :)
