This example is an R8 in arguably its purest form. Supplied new in 2009 it is a V8 example, fitted with a manual gearbox. Externally, the car is finished in Metallic Black. It's a colour that suits the R8 perfectly, despite the R8's pretty looks the shade makes for a sinister look. The paint work presents well and still retains a deep shine. There is also the added reassurance of 1,700 worth of paint protection film, fitted by specialists in 2021. The wheels are 19" items, finished in sparkling silver and wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S and tucked neatly behind them are the black alloy brake callipers. Inside the cabin, this R8 benefits from an Audi Exclusive trim upgrade, an option costing 4,795 when new which added Sand Beige fine Nappa leather across the seats, door cards and steering wheel. Nappa is a premium leather with a much finer grain, and is far softer to the touch than the standard fit options. The interior is in great shape, though there is some light wear on the drivers bolster which is to be expected. In the centre console you'll find Audi's Navigation Plus which also adds a reversing camera and the all important gated 6-speed manual gear lever, featuring a turned alloy gear knob and a strip of matching sand beige leather, despite being 15 years old, the car has covered less than 24,000 miles!
