If you’re a fan of premium cars then the Audi R8 certainly would have appeared on your radar at some point.
The stunning luxury model which bears a striking resemblance to the Lamborghini Gallardo has been termed by AutoExpress as the ‘everyday supercar’ and by CarandDriver as the ‘supercar gate-crasher’.
The reason for this?
Its style is far more refined than its supercar competitors. From new, the model provides superb handling which is down to its smaller engine and lighter body, brilliant dynamics and a stunning street presence, all enclosed within that familiar Audi charm.
CarandDriver commented “While still sufficiently civilised to fill the R8’s essential role as an everyday, all-purpose supercar, it provides the car with a new level of agility and response, and crucially without torpedoing the ride at the same time”.
