You would be better to wait for a Murcielago. Even though it's a great car i don't think this would be a great supercar to bring back to the channel, the C63 has a better wow factor.
Not on Paul's C63 though!!! And he's just fucking around,got money to burn and doesn't know what to do with it! That's what his problem is at the moment!
NO, NO - why should you? Buy a manual f355 or another exotic if you want something cheap and special to surprise your fanbase. You"ve got a c63. You don't need another daily... Don't bore us with another R8. UA-cam has enough of them.
No ! Boring and to old ... need to up your game.. the competition are leaving you behind (Archie, TGE, even STG) !! .. SOL is the channel that is out there LOUD in your face bring that back please !!!!
Beautiful car but u have had an r8 already and have had a Gallardo and a huracan so the 2 of the same v10 engine. Get something different. Ferrari F430 Nissan gtr McLaren 540c or 12c Porsche gt3 or turbo s
In a word: yesssss. Looks way better than a Huracan or a Gallardo Superleggera. I love the first gen R8 V10. Even Jeremy Clarckson once said about the 1st gen R8 V10 that it was the best car he has ever driven. Not joking at all!
jr nascimento the price difference as well for a Murcielago clutch is mega. Nothing cheap about a Murci, if this guy did manage to get one... he’d end up homeless.
if you buy this, please, for the love of god, dont say the entire name and just call it an R8 rather than Audi R8 V10 blablablabla. Thaaaaaaaanks. (dont buy it)
I suggest to go for an R8 GT, but a different one. They are much more spectacular when dressed in alcantara and ideally with the buckets and cage. With this black leather it looks just too common for you and the channel. Am very satisfied with my GT. They'll keep value now and are quite low maintenance. I think the stock sound, especially at cold start is vicious enough - but if your neighbours already hate you then you may of course get more noise out of the car. And I also do like the gearbox - once it's warm it does the job well and has a racy feel. I also have a PDK car which switches gears in a kinda boring way. Regards from Germany, J
Lloyd 12 why does everyone in the comments have to be poor. Can't someone be able to afford it unless they have to upload it to UA-cam? Not everyone who watches these are 9-5 paycheck to paycheck people or children. Some are businessmen you know
Great video,and a nice car on the table...I have to applaud Forza Horizon 1 on the R8 GT, they've programmed it exactly as it is in real, gear changes are slow too in the game...
Buy it i know you are on a budget but be real all in comment say not not ,the question is have they the money to buy an normal r8 99% are kids 14-16 years or older but that is not the point the point is its your money you lose 100 or 1k subs but you will gain 5k more .
Paul, what are you thinking??? For a gen 1 R8 it’s not cheap...and a gen 1??? Maybe if you were looking at the gen2 it would be a good stop gap. The gearbox is terrible in this car, wouldn’t you find that lurch tiresome after a while? I know I did when I drove one.
I think offering 65,000£ is a really good start. I haven't seen or driven the Audi R8 but if you can get that car with only 15,000 miles for 70,000£ or less, I would grab that car so quick before someone else buys it. Especially a limited edition in perfect condition. You cant go wrong.
No more r8's. Its far too dated that model now. They just don't stand out anymore. You can pick them up for 35k with the v8 engine. Most people convert them to look like v10's too. They are worth 50k all day but I wouldn't pay 80k for an old r8 mate. Be sensible and keep looking fella.
Now is the time to buy an R8 because the prices are falling. I bought my 2017 R8 V10 Plus in February for just under $155k, all in.And it stickered at just over $228k but it's my "special occasion" car.My 2017 911 Turbo S Cabrio is my daily driver.
Huge fan of Audi, but you shouldn't buy it. Buy something that the others haven't introduced till now. A Nissan GTR R35 is a great option and you can tune it to extreme. McLaren 570s is also a great one for the wow factor and a Porsche Turbo s would be really cool
Consider a McLaren 570s perhaps, I mean you are not looking into buying a long term car,it's just for a few months,why not go for something different this time before you get the Murcieolago, I mean you've always been into Lambos and R8s, so try something different
what about like a porsche 997 gt3. If u get something like that gallardo superleggera, it'll be really hard to sell when it comes time to buy that murcielago.
Paul I think this is a good idea, though it's not outstanding in terms of sound and performance, you have the ability to make it mental. Also considering it's low depreciation/possible appreciation it is a good idea to have for a short while while you wait on the perfect Murcielago.
Paul to be honest: Do it. It's 70 grand for a limited production number supercar with a V10 and probably the best bang for your buck you can get. It isn't the best supercar around, it has some flaws but you will have a lot of fun with this car I think. Just safe the rest of the money up or use it for some upgrades (like an exhaust). When you find the perfect Lamborghini you want you can always check some out.
I’m for it, but only if you Twin Turbo or Supercharge it. The R8 was what drew me to your channel and it would be nice to see it back but only if done with a twist.
Hi Paul, I've been watching your videos for a while now and I get that you are looking to introduce a "supercar" back into the channel. Firstly, you made a sensible choice in purchasing your home instead of keeping the Huracan. With that mindset, I would suggest that you would be more inclined to purchase something which demonstrates the mature choice you made before by investing in a Porsche 911 Turbo S (997). This is a dateless car which isn't short of power. The Audi R8 GT is a good car and by the looks of it you are not interested in anything being only good. You want something which would provide you with an amazing experience yet remain within a healthy budget. Furthermore, with regards to your channel, a Porsche 911 Turbo S can be tuned and morphed into something quite special, which would make great footage. All the best, W Ashraf
Hi Paul, have u considered a McLaren MP4-12C as a potential 'meantime supercar'? Lookin forward to this content a lot. Keep it up dude, peace from the East Midlands 👌
What about a (preferably manual) dbs (not the new one)??? For under £100k, there is nothing better value than a 6 litre v12. It is going up in price, in manual has no bad gearbox, and it sounds and looks good
Nissan GT-R! Similar price range, won't depreciate much in value, something different to most of these big UA-camr's, great content and will be a nice gap to get you to the Merci
I'll say it AGAIN in case you haven't read it the first time round! Buy the Murcie,do all the mods you need to it,while keeping the C63 and then concentrate buying a drift car,as a project,and THAT'S IT! Stop wasting spare cash you HAVE for the Murcie,onto UNNECESSARY average cars!!! The surprise for the Murcie is GONE,WE KNOW You'll (HOPEFULLY) get one,so waiting for the 10th anniversary seems a bit unnecessary somehow! Buy the Murcie NOW and do something special with it on your 10th anniversary instead!
Just do what you want Paul. It's your money life and choice. I have never experienced any of these cars so for me it's a miracle to even be able to have an R8. Me being someone who only has public transport haha!!!!
paul, lots of people are saying "no dont get it", but its really up to you. i think it would be awesome for you to have that car, but again its up to you. your life, your money, your car
Buy it! I’ve been in the same shoes as you with R8 being my first Supercar. The GT is like you said a collectors car. The R-Tronic being a lazy but reliable and very cheap to fix. But 70k is just cheap for that one! I’ve been looking around Europe for about 100-120k euro
I think Paul should bring the Murcielago back to youtube. The last youtuber to own a Murcielago was RobertHimler, rip. & I fell in love with Shmee's SV video from back in the day. Now if I had the money I'd get the 640 and do a DMC SV conversion. Btw, loved that video too!
BMW ///M he's got the same engine in the c63 so why would he pay so much more money for a temporary car that is similar is ways to a car he already has
the R8 is so like ‘ every supercar ever ‘ , i really think this GT is super special and that you should hop in one , since it would not really depreciate in value too ! buy it !!
NO,,,,, check up the Stradman UA-cam Channel ..... you would have similare Content and his R8 is already long on the Channel... Just safe some more money and buy a proper Mclaren 720s ... think at the value :)
Get it. If it's only 333 in world and I do believe that it will eventually shoot up in value. It is a beautiful vehicle and it looks so amazing and just to think, 70k for a supercar, what a deal
I think that's a great car for the channel as it takes you back to a car that launched you as a brand and also it's so rare you are unlikely to see another one
The fact that you said you think the old R8 is more aggressive than a Huracan makes me feel you're going into this to fast and might make a regrettable choice.
Yes, and dismantle the frontdrive by taking out the frontdrive shaft and you have a cheap RWD R8 for way less money than a Lambo Huracan that might even have better resale value ....after all it is German and a very limited production run!
Get an r8 gen2 non plus and put a supercharger like VF supercharger on it for 800brake. Then wait for the lp640 when u have a joy with that 800bhp. I think it would be super cool
Hey Paul, I am sure you probably get this a lot but have you considered the Nissan GTR? It has the performance as well as the storage space for any of your travels. Just a thought for a temporary super car fill!
"Should I this and should I that". That's all UA-camrs seem to say. Buy something already and stop milking it!
A Google User my comment is a bait and you are the fish. So yes, I would say I do know how throw a bait
A Google User you personally told me your an ijiot. Besides the not much else you told me 😉😜
In a word, NO
i've had hot farts all day
It's £70k for a reason, I remember a few Ford Ghia's with limited trim, as appealing ?
NO.
I mean it’s cool and kinda unique but it’s a bit meh
BMW ///M meh are all BMWs
TheEryk03 gotem
TheEryk03 not really
but definetly more meh than this R8 GT
Bruce Wayne bmw still doesnt have such nice car like this R8 GT. BMW morons can only dream of it.
Thats why bmw morons hate on R8s.
You would be better to wait for a Murcielago. Even though it's a great car i don't think this would be a great supercar to bring back to the channel, the C63 has a better wow factor.
I have said that all along,he should just buy the Murcie,keep the C63 and do his drifting car project,as a 3rd one!
An r8 has much more of a wow factor than a c63
Not on Paul's C63 though!!! And he's just fucking around,got money to burn and doesn't know what to do with it! That's what his problem is at the moment!
I would turn my head on R8 GT in the street but i would never turn my head on C63 enough said
NO, NO - why should you? Buy a manual f355 or another exotic if you want something cheap and special to surprise your fanbase. You"ve got a c63. You don't need another daily... Don't bore us with another R8. UA-cam has enough of them.
Get a superleggera
DanielDowling is
I'd rather have an Aventador.
No ! Boring and to old ... need to up your game.. the competition are leaving you behind (Archie, TGE, even STG) !! .. SOL is the channel that is out there LOUD in your face bring that back please !!!!
Get a Porsche gt3. Great mods and awesome performance
Beautiful car but u have had an r8 already and have had a Gallardo and a huracan so the 2 of the same v10 engine. Get something different.
Ferrari F430
Nissan gtr
McLaren 540c or 12c
Porsche gt3 or turbo s
I vote for the Ferrari F430
Archie's impression of Dean is hilarious
Archie always is hilarious
In a word: yesssss. Looks way better than a Huracan or a Gallardo Superleggera.
I love the first gen R8 V10. Even Jeremy Clarckson once said about the 1st gen R8 V10 that it was the best car he has ever driven. Not joking at all!
So nearly 2 year later, it would have been a good investment. The R8 GTs on autotrader all cost more than this.
Clickbaiting us all until he can afford a Murci in a couple years.
Dan Hall bet you feel like a big fanny rash now
Step back, get a 911 this would take total sense and think of the content
911 are boring apart from GT3s.
AP13P he just wants a car for the summer, plus he’s a drifter so 911 makes sense.
AP13P how bout gt2 ?
L Distributor why not a Carrera GT?
Dashte gt2 “ONLY” costs as much as his house, Carrera gt costs double his house
8:05 Paul went full chicken mode
lol. People are saying that this R8 sucks because it has a single clutch and it's better to buy a murcielago but the murci is also single clutch lol
jr nascimento the price difference as well for a Murcielago clutch is mega. Nothing cheap about a Murci, if this guy did manage to get one... he’d end up homeless.
+Adders321 he got one....and his not homeless
No, the most common cheap supercar
That car brand new is 250k that’s not cheap
That shape looks outdated now and the single clutch sucks, sounds poo aswell, i think you will loose interest quickly. You can do better
if you buy this, please, for the love of god, dont say the entire name and just call it an R8 rather than Audi R8 V10 blablablabla. Thaaaaaaaanks. (dont buy it)

No, I had one and the single clutch is a pain
colin Monk Finally someone who isn’t lying saying they had a car when they didn’t thank you 👍🏼
He had a Gallardo e-gear, he knows what r-tronic is, they are the exact same box
Lloyd 12 why does everyone in the comments have to be poor. Can't someone be able to afford it unless they have to upload it to UA-cam? Not everyone who watches these are 9-5 paycheck to paycheck people or children. Some are businessmen you know
Lloyd 12 I have a 2000 E36
Wtf they put a single clutch on the R8 and the double clutch s-tronic on the tt mk2 hahahah
Great video,and a nice car on the table...I have to applaud Forza Horizon 1 on the R8 GT, they've programmed it exactly as it is in real, gear changes are slow too in the game...
This is the content I love! Buy a supercar, this is exactly what your channel needs bro
That guy around 4 minutes in, looking at the Porsche like he can afford it, pretending to consider to buy 😂story of my life
No
YESSSSS THAT'S A HUGE THROWBACK TO THE R8 V8 DAYS 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Buy it i know you are on a budget but be real all in comment say not not ,the question is have they the money to buy an normal r8 99% are kids 14-16 years or older but that is not the point the point is its your money you lose 100 or 1k subs but you will gain 5k more .
That orange GTR in the back, just under/around 70k, modern technology, brand new, looks the part and not many other mainstream youtubers have it
What about the manual one? How much is that on the used market?
Paul, what are you thinking??? For a gen 1 R8 it’s not cheap...and a gen 1??? Maybe if you were looking at the gen2 it would be a good stop gap. The gearbox is terrible in this car, wouldn’t you find that lurch tiresome after a while? I know I did when I drove one.

Delta BoXeR but hey morons like you at the same time tell that R8 MK2 looks worse than the old one....
Delta BoXeR The car in your picture hasn't changed it's body style in decades and you call something else dated. Lol
The 911 is timeless and Porsche is the ONLY company capable of improving upon PERFECTION.
Now is the time to buy an R8 because the prices are falling. I bought my 2017 R8 V10 Plus in February for just under $155k, all in.And it stickered at just over $228k but it's my "special occasion" car.My 2017 911 Turbo S Cabrio is my daily driver.
Huge fan of Audi, but you shouldn't buy it.
Buy something that the others haven't introduced till now.
A Nissan GTR R35 is a great option and you can tune it to extreme.
McLaren 570s is also a great one for the wow factor and a Porsche Turbo s would be really cool
Whats with all the studs in the seatbelts?
Consider a McLaren 570s perhaps, I mean you are not looking into buying a long term car,it's just for a few months,why not go for something different this time before you get the Murcieolago, I mean you've always been into Lambos and R8s, so try something different
You should get a nissan skyline r34, you whould be special and whould have a beautiful car that will get way more respect from the real car guys.
I would get more property a little flat or apartment and rent it out for a nice stable income then get yourself a super car
what about like a porsche 997 gt3. If u get something like that gallardo superleggera, it'll be really hard to sell when it comes time to buy that murcielago.
I know its not really a supercar but why mot buy a nissan gtr and mod it , tune it up to like 900bhp be a bit different
Do you like Nissan gtr's or maserati granturismo mc?
Welcome to Average Cars of London and today you have joined me on my never ending Window Shopping series.

When you find the perfect Lamborghini you want you can always check some out.
Noooooo Follow Your Dream Paul Dont Buy A Another R8 Murrrrr?????
you could easily get a 2013 audi R8 v10 plus with the s tronic for near enough the same money also the one i seen had a larini exhaust
Hell yeah!
Pretty hard to hear during the in car segment. Assuming you're using the built in go-pro mics?
I’m for it, but only if you Twin Turbo or Supercharge it. The R8 was what drew me to your channel and it would be nice to see it back but only if done with a twist.
What year is the car

Hi Paul, have u considered a McLaren MP4-12C as a potential 'meantime supercar'? Lookin forward to this content a lot. Keep it up dude, peace from the East Midlands 👌
Absolutely yes!! I live in the United States and I’m looking for a manual v10 gt myself
i also love the smile and the "ofc i did mate". flawless response.
What about a (preferably manual) dbs (not the new one)??? For under £100k, there is nothing better value than a 6 litre v12. It is going up in price, in manual has no bad gearbox, and it sounds and looks good
Were they ever available as a manual? If so, what would the price of a manual now be ??
Nissan GT-R! Similar price range, won't depreciate much in value, something different to most of these big UA-camr's, great content and will be a nice gap to get you to the Merci
01:44 Anyone know the Name of the Color from this RS6? It Looks so fu***** Beautiful
Definitely on the “must have” list!
Nice video
I'll say it AGAIN in case you haven't read it the first time round! Buy the Murcie,do all the mods you need to it,while keeping the C63 and then concentrate buying a drift car,as a project,and THAT'S IT! Stop wasting spare cash you HAVE for the Murcie,onto UNNECESSARY average cars!!! The surprise for the Murcie is GONE,WE KNOW You'll (HOPEFULLY) get one,so waiting for the 10th anniversary seems a bit unnecessary somehow! Buy the Murcie NOW and do something special with it on your 10th anniversary instead!
what about an nsx prices have come down alot since they are not selling well
Yes
Yeah definitely, it's your dream car, said it's what you'd buy when you met your dream to become a champion down hill skier.
Just do what you want Paul. It's your money life and choice. I have never experienced any of these cars so for me it's a miracle to even be able to have an R8. Me being someone who only has public transport haha!!!!
Are you going to Coventry Moto festival?
paul, lots of people are saying "no dont get it", but its really up to you. i think it would be awesome for you to have that car, but again its up to you. your life, your money, your car
How much is an R8 LMX
If you’re going to get a V10, get a gen 3 Gallardo
Buy it! I’ve been in the same shoes as you with R8 being my first Supercar. The GT is like you said a collectors car. The R-Tronic being a lazy but reliable and very cheap to fix. But 70k is just cheap for that one! I’ve been looking around Europe for about 100-120k euro
You e got to admire Archie’s positivity haven’t you.
Yeaaaah those slow gear changes are cool 😂
Top friend
I think Paul should bring the Murcielago back to youtube. The last youtuber to own a Murcielago was RobertHimler, rip. & I fell in love with Shmee's SV video from back in the day. Now if I had the money I'd get the 640 and do a DMC SV conversion. Btw, loved that video too!
how much is a 997.1 gt3 in UK?
How much is it up for?
Why not the AMG GTR I know it’s not 70k but it’s certainly worth a look and you liked your one GTS if I remember.
BMW ///M he's got the same engine in the c63 so why would he pay so much more money for a temporary car that is similar is ways to a car he already has
BMW ///M bro it's like almost 200 grand
Amg GTr is morning with engine that have any other Mercedes. Boring car for old farts.
luka matt it’s 140,000 actually....... with options like 155,000
BMW ///M Tim's one was almost 200
the R8 is so like ‘ every supercar ever ‘ , i really think this GT is super special and that you should hop in one , since it would not really depreciate in value too ! buy it !!
If you are genuinely thinking about this, please check out the lotus evora 400/410. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised
Chap Hammersmith That would be interesting to see, they're underrated cars 👍
Dean redline is the MANNNNNNNNN, Archie can go away in slow jerky movements.
I think GTs will rise up in price sooner or later. £70k is a steal for that car
Its very nice, but could it receive, lets say, a VF engineering supercharger kit?
Julio Cesar Besler or twin Turbos 🤔
No, you should not!
For £70k that’s an absolute bargain. Surely those cars are appreciating as well?
NO,,,,, check up the Stradman UA-cam Channel ..... you would have similare Content and his R8 is already long on the Channel...
Just safe some more money and buy a proper Mclaren 720s ... think at the value :)
YESS!
The R8 is cheap enough to buy and keep, and still be able to buy the murcielago. Just an idea. 🏎🔥🏎🔥🏎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
HELL YESSS, Stright pipe it and just go back to the Gallardo days (maybe keep the cats in order to not make your ears bleed).
Get it. If it's only 333 in world and I do believe that it will eventually shoot up in value. It is a beautiful vehicle and it looks so amazing and just to think, 70k for a supercar, what a deal
Wtf is up with you "Should i buy this, should i buy that, being a drifter, being a racing driver". Are you even yourself?
Look at the KLine innovation R8 GT exhaust BEST EXHAUST FOR THE R8 HANDS DOWN
I think that's a great car for the channel as it takes you back to a car that launched you as a brand and also it's so rare you are unlikely to see another one
The fact that you said you think the old R8 is more aggressive than a Huracan makes me feel you're going into this to fast and might make a regrettable choice.
5L Superleggera!! With a Tubi Exhaust!
Yes! Buy it. 👌🏻
Nowadays the new A6 costs 80k new. This is well worth the money
Yes, and dismantle the frontdrive by taking out the frontdrive shaft and you have a cheap RWD R8 for way less money than a Lambo Huracan that might even have better resale value ....after all it is German and a very limited production run!
Get an r8 gen2 non plus and put a supercharger like VF supercharger on it for 800brake. Then wait for the lp640 when u have a joy with that 800bhp. I think it would be super cool
I would love to see an old R8 back. But what about a manual V10?🤔
The r8 is awesome! You should look into Astons ie vantage v12 s. Little bit more than the R8 but a brilliant car about 85k on auto trader
Get a Ferrari 430 coupe Manual gearbox, you're not in love with then, this should be interesting
I think you should buy the Superleggera but no one can deny that this R8 GT is a very very attractive deal
Hey Paul, I am sure you probably get this a lot but have you considered the Nissan GTR? It has the performance as well as the storage space for any of your travels. Just a thought for a temporary super car fill!
or even the 430 Scud
