I am still very much in love with your ex Al. You have excellent taste. :wink:

All good. Although some idiot left the rear hatch open yesterday - went to start the car today - realised what had possibly happened, checked hatch (which was open as suspected), and shut it in disgust. No!

Hence I now know how to access the emergency hatch release. :roll:

R8 looks great. Is this the first RWD R8 there is? Wow.

That looks like an absolute weapon, hope you have the winter tyres on as may be a little bit greasy this winter :)

Yes it is, first RWD production car Audi have ever made. Apparently they will do more RWD cars under the RWS (Rear Wheel Series) going forward so it will be interesting to see what car they do it to next.

Looks great, congrats.

Like the others, didn't know Audi did RWD, nice to see more choice, would be interesting to see some reviews of it vs the regular AWD R8s.

Worthy successor to the Evora!

And I'm sure that V10 will only be an electronic tickle away from the full 600bhp available on the other R8 V10 versions.. ;)
