Audi R8 V10 Plus, SOLD
We are pleased to offer for sale, on behalf of one of our clients, this extremely well-cared for Audi R8 V10 Plus. First registered in 2013 and having covered just 28,700 miles, this vehicle comes with the desirable 'wing-back' sports seats and carbon-ceramic brakes.
Powered by a 5.2-litre V10 engine, and transmitted via a 7-speed S-tronic gearbox and quattro 4WD system, this R8 V10 Plus delivers thrilling performance.
With two former keepers, this highly-specced R8 has been fastidiously maintained by the current owner, and cared for by our sister company - the UK's leading independent R8 specialist - REPerformance.
The comprehensive maintenance file includes a recent major service by REPerformance. It has had a recent new battery and an air-con re-gas.
Exterior wise, this R8 benefits from a carbon front lower lip, carbon side blades, carbon mirrors and a carbon rear diffuser. The current owner has had a valved F1 exhaust system installed at REPerformance, which gives the V10 a thrilling sound. The valves can be operated via the Sport button on the centre console.
​
The exterior has been ceramic coated to protect the paintwork and this R8 has always been professionally valeted and garaged by the current keeper.
​
Inside, this Plus model boasts some desirable features including unmarked, factory-fitted 'wing-back' sports seats. There's a full complement of carbon fibre additions, including the dash surround, centre console and door cards. The A pillars and roof lining are both finished in Alcantara and there is a Kenwood multi-media unit, which includes SatNav and Apple Car Play.
​
With just 28,700 miles on the clock, the interior is in excellent condition.
​
Under the bonnet, the 'thrunk' has been upgraded to an Audi Exclusive item, trimmed in Alcantara. The original Audi MMI headunit is included.
REPerformance are happy to recommend it as one of the best maintained examples of a Gen 1 R8 V10 Plus available in the UK today.
This R8 is available to view, by appointment, at our Swindon facility. Test drives will be carried out by one of our sales team.

​​About REPerformance
As the UK’s leading independent R8 specialist, we see a large number of R8s, so we know these mid-engined supercars inside out. We regularly see cheaper vehicles brought to us that require a significant amount of work, just to get them up to a reasonable spec, often with bills in excess of £10,000.
We specialise in preventive maintenance, which involves taking steps to deal with potential issues before they become an expensive problem. Unfortunately, a lot of R8s for sale, especially at the cheaper end of the market, are maintained on a budget and this is reflected in their overall condition. It is important to remember that these were developed as Audi’s first mid-engined supercar, and, although they are very easy to drive and live with, the maintenance costs can be high if not looked after correctly.
​
Every vehicle we sell undergoes our comprehensive pre-sale inspection.
We don’t just give it a ‘once over’, we take a detailed look to ensure everything works as it should and there are no hidden issues. This includes checking more obvious things work, such as power mirrors and the air-con; to a road test to ensure the car drives without any issues. We then plug in our factory diagnostics to check for fault codes. From here, we remove the wheels to carefully examine the brakes and suspension. We then remove the under-trays, to fully inspect the underside of the vehicle to look for any other issues such as corroded pipework and oil leaks. Our detailed inspection gives us a clear picture of the condition of the vehicle and allows us to highlight areas that either need to be addressed immediately, or; noted for future attention.
Our advice is to always do your research and make sure the car is inspected properly. Then spend as much as you can afford to get the best possible example, that has been well cared for by a specialist. That way, you should minimise the risk of expensive repairs in the future.
