I looked around for quite some time, and here is the link for the best price I could find, some places charge cra...

Sports mode on and shifting with the paddles, the down shift blips are addictive! Share your first impressions once you've had a weekend of fantastic driving.

Re: R8 V10 plus 2014 Advice please peeps !

I've heard people mention this before but I've had the bonnet sprayed twice now d/t really bad stone chips without issue. I am busy organising having the bonnet and bumper wrapped now with one of those new self healing films, I cannot remember the brand name now, so I don't have to have work done a...

Re: R8 V10 plus 2014 Advice please peeps !

Oh the Estoril Blue is stunning! But I am biased. If reds your colour the Maidstone one surely has to be the winner, you've got to have buckets in a car like the R8. Then keep an eye on R8talk for a nice used aftermarket exhaust for sale and the smiles per miles just gets better. There's a lot of ba...

Armytrix Exhaust

After spending sometime reading everything I can about exhaust options and watching literally hundreds of Utube videos, I managed to bag myself a bargain a few weeks ago, a close to new, Titanium Armytrix exhaust. Someone trading in for the new V10 plus. The thing sounds Insane! Decided to do the in...

I am not on R8talk but if my work rotation works out right, I could be up for a run down to this.
