I am pretty sure that my next car will be 3-4 year old A8 but I need to know more about fuel consumption across the 2.8, 3.7 and 4.2 models to make my choice. Does anybody know of any good websites to guide me?

4.2 = 13.0 litres per 100 km
3.7 = 17.1 litres per 100 km

3.7 with greater fuel consumption than the 4.2 ?
I think you must have your figures round the wrong way.

Check out this site to do side by side comparison.
I don't know for sure how accurate it is, but it's worth checking out.
