Going to look at this this week. yes I knows its an R Tronic but I want to try it as I think I will like the box to be honest.

As its Harwoods and they have Audi in the group I am hoping it can get the Audi warranty even though its at their Bentley dealer.

Car has also been on the following plates OO03LEM, 7NC, PO53OHC.

Anyone know the car?

Thanks in advance.

Not aware of the car but regardless of who you buy it from, I always recommend a PPI ideally from an independent specialist who know the R8. Whilst R8's are probably the most reliable of supercars, when they go wrong they are expensive to fix.

I'm pretty sure you can purchase extended Audi warranties direct from Audi - I looked and a quote for my car (2008 R8 v8) for everything was around £1,800 for the year.

Let us know how you get on and good luck with the R8 hunting.

Thanks, will let you know. Not a great start as I contacted the dealer on live chat, they took my details and said they would ring me back this morning......still waiting.

I wouldn't let that put you off as it appears to be a common trait of car dealers. The OP of the R8 thread entitled 'Audi R8 Spyder' also describes a similar experience .

I like the colour scheme.

It's not a great advert - not much spec listed and no service history. The engine-bay hasn't been cleaned before being photographed, and why does there appear to be a hole in the plastic cover on the right-hand side?

I doubt that they will put an Audi warranty on it - I wonder why it hasn't been sold through their Audi franchise?
