Just introducing myself. I have finally have a R8 V10 Plus Gen 1 in my possession. It’s been a very long 3.5 months and I’m glad it’s over tbh, I was going insane looking on the used sales
Sites….Gave up on finding the holy grail of a 14/15 plate plus manual so went for a S Tronic instead and I’m glad I did. All my other cars in my collection are manuals so it’s nice to have an auto in the stable :). I am a purist car enthusiast at heart so I won’t be modifying the car to much but I do own a vehicle installation business in the UK which we strive on thinking outside the box when it comes to retrofit installs, and we have some development products I’m dying to retro install on this car so watch this space as some
If you may be interested in some of the products I have in store, as well as being able to offer reviews on other products I intend to install on this little beauty.

Congratulations and welcome.
Congratulations and welcome.
Nice ride, welcome! Do you still have the original Plus wheels for the car? Looks like base model facelift rims on there now, any plans to switch things up with those?
Congrats and welcome aboard.

In the Uk I think they were a optional extra, so I have purchased these and got them painted in Anthracite Black :) will be getting them on when I have done a few other bits on the car :)

nice ride & congrats......(y)
Congrats! I think I have your twin, but in a 2014 manual
Nothing like fresh PS4S rubber on a new car! Beautiful, congrats.
Congratulations - she looks great! Enjoy!
She’s a beaut. It took me a long time holding out for a manual. I got one finally, but higher mileage than I wanted.
That said, now I won’t feel bad driving it. ;)

welcome. Please share any retrofit items you end up developing :)
Congratulations! She's a beauty. Even with the CCB, very nice!

If you ever need new shocks - keep us in mind! :)
