Default Why you shouldn't drink and drive; or how to wreck an A8 in several easy steps ...

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/55399/dsc0068.jpg"></center><p>1- Get toasty on new years eve
2- Try to drive home
3- Bite your boyfriend when he trys to take the keys
4- Drive home anyway
5- Go off road into a ditch (explains the front damage)
6- Think "I can just back out ..."
7- Several minutes pass with progresively louder noises (explains the rear damage)
8- Say screw it and walk home
9- Start drinking more for an excuse to fail the breath test when the cops show up later
10- Call the local dealer and say you got a flat and want it fixed ...

(not my car, but another local A8, and yes the mud is on the inside of the car)

Default Lucky she didn't kill herself or someone else. Maybe the ditch was a blessing in disguise.....

Poor car- likely totaled :-(

Wow! So, 3 wheels were stuck and the fourth spinned until it set itself on fire?

Default Indeed. Let us know if they part it out. Line forms here :)

Poor car. Not the first time it's had an accident (Looks like previous owner a few years ago though) -thanks Carfax.

Default Was that her boyfriend's car? Boy I would be furious. I know cars are just possesions but that

sort of a fiasco would be totally testing my patience.
