I normally use the Lambo board but thought posters on here might be interested to know that I saw a car transporter truck on the M1 motorway this morning with 8 new R8's loaded on it near Loughborough. The car looks bigger in the metal than I thought it would. The cars on the upper deck of the truck were mostly covered with the white zip up bags for transit protection like the ones that Porsche use for new Cayennes. The cars on the lower deck just had the white protective film on various body panels. I didn't get a chance to take any pics (sorry guys) as the truck was headed in the opposite direction to me.

Saw a transporter carrying R8's myself during the week - much as you said, on the top covered by those white things.

I am also 90% sure I saw an Mitsu Evo X today, in the same red as the concept car..

Saw 2 R8s on the M1 Northbound on Saturday morning - one black, one silver.
Not sure about those slats....
