The Appeal

While the Audi badge may not have quite the pulling power of a Ferrari one, there's no denying the pulling power the R8 can lay claim to. The octane-happy V8 coupe was an impeccable achievement right out of the gate, and in 2009 an even more powerful 5.2-litre V10-Plus model was introduced - which is where things really kicked off. This beast boasts 518bhp and a 0-62mph time of less than four seconds.

Couple in excellent build quality and remarkably laid back, easy handling and you've got one of the best of the modern classics, and potentially one of the best all-round 'thinking man's sports cars' out there. Put simply, this is a modern, high-octane piece of hardware that's got just about everything going for it.

This example is ready and waiting to provide all of that V10-powered charisma that it's so preened for, with a remarkably low mileage of 38,002km - which we're informed is an authentic reading. The car boasts a valid technical inspection that's valid all the way up until October 2026.
