Hi guys,

Considering jumping into an R8 this summer - getting itchy feet.

Previously owned a Gallardo, C63 and Bentley Conti GT 6.0 but just bimbling round in an electric EQC merc at present as a family car. This would be my side fun.

Heres one I've found I quite like the look of; https://www.junction17cars.co.uk/used-cars/audi-r8...

Thoughts on spec, price etc?

Thanks

History not great if this is all there is:



One inspection in 7 years? Miles overdue a service, spark plugs, brake fluid etc...

Look closely at tyres, the OE P Zeros are notorious for perishing badly. Those silly "alloy gator" things trap dirt and water against the paint on wheels and leave a mess too.

If there are invoices to support the gap in history fantastic, but not at all unusual to see these neglected a bit on maintenance.

Spec's nice and colour is personal.
