Thinking about buying an A8 quattro. Should I?

[Britt Crowell]

So as a joke i bid on an A8 on ebay. 
I got out bid by $100 but the winner didnt pay so the seller sent me a second chance offer.
Its a 1997 you can check out the links and specs here

And If any has access to Carfax and can run this that would be cool too

So what do you guys think about this car? Is it a great deal that I shouldnt turn down or am I flirting with a possible money pit.

Never had an Audi with less than 100K miles or newer than an '89.  I wonder if its broke in good yet???


Thanks for any input.
