And Now The Time Has Come ....

for the final curtain.

Folks

I have sold my mint condition pearl black R8.

Got a cracking price for it -- a tribute to the technical mastery at Audi.

Reason is Audi's V10 hard ball pricing policy and the sales in-difference to the customer.

Simply put, as a business owner I have had ot adjust and take a cut in fees and be more efficient -- so why not Audi ?

Bought a near new (12 months old) Bentley GTC convertible W12 twin turbo 560HP cruiser for a lot less than V10 R8 and Bentley fell over themselves to please the customer -- Audi take note !

The straight line acceleration of the GTC is the same as the V10 and its much cheaper ! (Audi write this down).

Could not be happier.

The technical side of Audi is brilliant, pity they are being let down by the other side of the firm. For what it is, the best sports ever made. Period.

Nothing like ice cubes in the martini (from the walnut drinks cabinet) being stable at 140mph -- a Bentley gaurantee.

If Audi and its sales people continue like this its going to end in tears -- another Bentley gaurantee you could say ......

Adios One and All

Farewell to your R8 too. Curious to see pics of your new Beauty/Baby. Will be interesting to see how long it takes for you to get another R8. Peace. \"/

Many Thanks Gazza.

I am sure a V10 will grace my garage one day next to the GTC after the economy improves. I am also hopeful Audi will have sorted things out by then.

Cheers

How could I not pay my respects to Harrison.

Here is my car :

It sold in 24 hours -- just goes to show how in demand the V8 still is. The guy that bought it collects it tomorrow morning.

I understand why you may have got pissed with Audi...but a GTC? I just could not bring myself to own such an ugly car.

Each to his own though

I love the Continental GT and have driven one - a whole different experience. A perfect mix of opulence and performance.

Folks

Here is the pic of the new car.

Performance is awesome but effortless from the twin turbo W12 :
