Its makes sense?...not taking the micky but you're obviously joking right??

Second hand R8's go for say around £70 - £80k, a brand new one with all the toys...say £90'ish.

They are selling this at £110k and and you think its a good deal coz they're "giving away" a 5 year old mini! Surely its a missprint, no-one would get suckered in by that! You could buy a brand new Audi and a new Cooper with that money.

I think people that are resorting to giving away cars to help sell a house are just very desperate for cash in these deperate times.

Audi are offering discounts on new R8's to people who are cancelling orders. They are changing hands in the trade for 60 ish.

I think the R8 looks great in Imola Yellow. I've never seen one before.

List price for one with ALL the options is just over £130k. Bearing in mind the discount you could get on one now, you'd have a FAR better spec'd car than that, for about the same price. OK, there'd be no free Mini, but if you've got over £100k to spend on a car, surely you could stretch to another £5k for a 2007 Mini Cooper S, without getting a 5 year old one.
