Hi All, I am now the very proud owner of an Audi R8 V10 Plus in Bright yellow! If I can work out how to share photos on here I will add some, my previous car was an R8 V8 Spyder, very nice but hell this V10 is a totally different drive.
I bought her from Premier GT north of Brighton Sussex....that place took my breath away...the cars there are mind blowing!

Are there many Super car/R8 meets in the U.K.?

Cheers
Val

Welcome to the club.

The social scene for R8's only isn't great however I'm planning on launching an owner-only Facebook group to purely address that within the next week or two.

In the meantime, there is this Facebook page which you can like and contribute but it's open to everyone and anyone. Have a look at the events section which details past supercar events for this year - they're mainly events in the south though!

Welcome to the group. I am an R8 owner too ... but don't get 'em started on here about whether an R8 is a Supercar or not! :-)

Just in case you haven't discovered it, there's also R8Talk.com which is a great resource for all things R8.

Cheers

i don't understand this insistence on moving conversation from open forums like this into closed facebook groups, so many people don't use, or don't want to use bloody facebook!

Congrats on your purchase. Yellow I think is a great colour for the Gen 2 V10 Plus. Enjoy in good health. The cars are such great value right now!

I guess it stops all the abuse R8 owners get in the Supercar section of PHs

Hi Pioneer

Why are some car owners so pathetically childish? We all love our cars and there is no need to make people feel bad about their chosen car.

Not sure why you're posting here!?

It only has 500+ bhp, 2 seats, exotic looks & is relatively rare, pathetic!

Please get off & let us continue discussing McLaren depreciation & how much 'overs' to pay for a 911 gt something.2

Anyone who says an R8V10 is not a supercar is either someone thinking they are elite with a more expensive or super. supercar or just jealous and not worth spending the time to listen to their small mined drivel.
