Now that is a stunning car. I bet you'd be happy if they take their time on the R8!

Is the R8 manual or paddles? Friend of mine had a manual and loved it. I owned the new gen V10 plus for a while, stonking car though I didn't gel with the adaptive steering it had.
Mines a manual, as I could only really afford an early one and didn't like the sound of the R-Tronic box. (Plus I felt that my first V8 car should be a manual!)

Good man - completely agree your logic!

Also your first V8 is better than mine, which was a TVR that broke down every week for a year. Until I sold it... for another TVR smile

Mostly likely saw the same one by Timberhill in Norwich centre at around 7pm - Huracan 580-2 Spyder in black with black wheels.

EDIT: I also spotted Norfolk police's promo Cayman GT4 eastbound on the A47 between Dereham and Norwich late morning Tuesday.

I think that's my 1st spot in the mini!! :-)

I also saw last week a light blue Mini Cooper S with a PH smiley on the back on the A11 near Red Lodge. His was a bit faster than mine wink

Spotted a MK4 Supra just coming through Narborough towards King's Lynn as I was leaving for work, roughly 8:30am. Red with TRD wing and black wheels. Listened it go up the road and sounded like an auto by how it shifted.
