What a great day!

Post by iR8V10 » Sun Jul 10, 2011 5:52 pm

My wife is working so I initially thought, no play today as I've got the little man.

Then I thought feck it!

So out we went in the car, been to Tescos for some bits, and parked over two spaces. Visited some family, going the long route, went to the park on the way home with a football and now just got home, again the long way!

My son actually fell asleep in the car, didn't think he'd be able to...

...so there we have it. The R8 is a family car (we'll if you are a single parent with one child anyway! or you can leave your wife at home!)

Anyways, what's a post without a pic, probably my favourite yet!

I had a Range Rover but must have weighed twice as much!

If it was my first day in an R8, I'd have probably parked a minimum of half a foot from that kerb! Eek!

Dont blame you for getting rid of the front rings, worst idea Audi had sticking them on the front bonnet!
