saw my first R8 today cruising along St Neots highstreet earlier this afternoon and then again a little later on outside Texaco on the Gt North Road. what a car! looks fantastic, the shape of the car is superb and it sounds great even just cruising along!
managed to grab these quick pics of it outside Texaco,

One went past me when I was driving to Brands hatch the other day.

Very tempting.

Its just down the road from my house. Expect to see it lots around Papworth area because unlike most super car owners, he actually uses it!

Indeed it was!



Looking at your profile, I seem to remember your Porsche too, does it have a large exhaust on it? If it's the one - sounded great!

Yes that was me! I didn't stay there long, only really went to see some 924 racing so watched their first race then headed home!

I had the exhaust done by LPS in ipswich/woodbridge, it is quite loud but does sound good when giving it some, it gets a bit unbearable on motorways sometimes but then thats not the reason I've got the car!

If thats the one I saw it is indeed a local (Cambridgeshire) guy, owns quite a few "classic" cars also. I briefly spoke to him and he really is passionate about them. Top guy.

In which case it must be extremely close to me - must keep eyes peeled
