Re: Nurburgring Nordschleife Weds 2nd April 2014

Ouch..So in reality how many accidents are there? I've done lots of motor bike track days and most of the spills are people being just plain daft but whats it like with cars?

Do you guys take insurance out or is it largely unnecessary ?

Re: R8 Servicing Costs Vary?

Audi always quote Fixed Price servicing…but they will always negotiate on the price. Call up a couple of other Audi garages and you can be sure there will be a range of prices. Then play one off against the other.

PIRELLI TYRES, FULL SET FROM R8

I have a full set of Pirelli PZero tyres from my V8 R8. They have 2-3 mm of tread left, I changed them for a new set to go to the Nurburring last month so nothing wrong with them. Maybe useful if your tracking your car or just want a spare set. 300 pound plus post and packing. I'm in Suffolk if you ...

Re: V8 or v10

I've got a V8, and while I love it to bits it's not really that fast. My 911 C2S was quicker.....Saving hard to for two more cylinders...... NIce pub by the way went there in my RAF days

Re: R8 V8 manual vs auto - advice wanted

Tried a few autos before the manual and they are so different. The manual makes you grin from ear to ear, fantastic gearbox...the auto is a bit clunky in my opinion...Now have a V8 manual and loving it....just need to save some more to upgrade to a V10 !!
