Picked up my new R8.......

Post by b7rs4saloon » Mon Sep 29, 2014 7:35 am

I have most certainly got the R8 bug....

I picked up my new v10 plus yesterday, absolutely love it, so different to my previous R8's spec as follows:

Samoa Orange
S Tronic
Ceramics
Buckets
Carbon everywhere
The other options are irrelevant

What a peach of a gearbox

I have bought it from sytner but wasn't that dealer

I moved the Daytona car on because this one came up and I thought it was too good an opportunity to miss.

On the hunt for a new RS6 aswel, will post some pictures tonight

Love the car to bits...... Sporting a milltek super cup now :biggrin3:

I'm thinking about having the rear bumper insert & front grilles painted dark grey as the silver doesn't suit

Thanks
