new member about to buy !

[bazzis 10]

I'm new to this, hope you can help ! I've always wanted an S8, i'm just about to buy a 1998 with 130k miles, full history etc, it looks beautiful and seems good to drive, nothing I could sense to be too worrying, are there any specific problems that I should watch out for?? many thanks

I would get a code reader on it, just to make sure nothing seriously wrong. remember it may be cheep now, but the bills to fix it are still the same;)
