About this car

This is a 2008 Audi R8 V8, an early example of the car that established Audi as a serious maker of mid-engined sports cars. The 4.2-litre V8 sits behind the cabin and drives all four wheels through quattro.

It has the manual gearbox, which is the version many enthusiasts look for. The open gate shift was dropped from later cars as the R-tronic and S tronic automatics took over. Mileage is 67,000, which is reasonable for a car of this age.

The page gives no details on colour, registration, owners or service history, so these would need checking with the dealer.
