Silver R8 in Larkfield garage Chepstow.....I think I must be the only who doesn't like R8 form the amount of people looking at it. Sure they are great cars to drive but it doesn't do anything for me, as the shape doesn't jell and it's just...well just an Audi.

I saw and heard that Bentley a couple of weeks ago on Lamby way. He was giving it some beans then and it sounded bloody awesome. (Not at all like a Bentley)

The best view is inside looking in the door mirrors over the rear arches with the window down and the V8 at 8000rpm. Gels for me smile

I don't think the Renault bustle qualifies it as a Coupe any more than the new Scirocco is a coupe. A coupe doesn't have a hatch. So it's a hatchback if you need to be pedantic.

They are rare because they didnt sell well at all in the UK. I seem to remember clarkson saying that they sold in very small numbers, and the bumber started with an 8, so wether they sold 8, 80 or 800 i cant remember, but it wasn't many at all!

You think that Avantime, looks a mess, spotted Wednesday BMW X6, heading east on M4 opposite Celtic springs estate. Made the Avantime look stylish and sophisticated!

Couldn't agree more about the X6, saw driving past work last week. Possibly the ugliest thing I've seen in a while. Really really ugly and just plain wrong.
