the latest british "car" magazine has some interesting audi-related news.
1) audi is strongly rumoured to be *building* the w12 of avus fame. 4.8 litre, 400hp and for the new a8/a9 due the year 2000.
2) vw will have v8 and even v12 engines.
3) both audi and vw will continue to move up market. audi to make room for vw, and vw to make room for seat and skoda in the "value" category.
4) the a7 looks like it's happening as well.
5) audi to be still strongly marketed and segmented from vw (phew).
