    Paul, Sam, Seb and an R8 - this is a UA-cam nostalgia trip and half! Love the new R8 content Paul

    This is the best an R8 has ever been. Someone in my city drives this exact spec every summer (just saw it last week) and it gives me chills every time. You absolutely nailed this one, Paul!

    Man this gives some nostalgic vibes, it’s going to be a decade in a bit. R8 is looking as beautiful as ever.
    Btw Paul, I believe there is an AUX port that you can hook up an AUX cable to and then grab a converter, a 3.5mm jack to lightning port and then you can use your iPhone to listen to music. Try it out

    Why didnt you get one of those phone chargers with built in Bluetooth to FM.
    It pairs with your phone and then sends the signal out as a weak FM radio signal - weak so it doesn't break the law but plenty good enough that the car radio can tune into it.
    Iirc Sam uses one in the 360 or used to

    I haven't watched you or Seb's channel for some time now. Sam's as well but just recently started watching his again and now yours. I remember when I started watching Seb he had the Lotus and looked like a 16 year old kid! Funny to see him age. You don't look much different though. 😁👍
    Looking forward to the next installment.

      Porsche actually used to recommend NOT letting the engine sit and idle. I think the concept was that by putting a little bit of load you'll warm everything up quicker, which is better for it

    • @k-man88
      @k-man88 Рік тому +4

      First start up in the morning and sitting idling is causing the most damage as the oil is sitting in the sump so the quicker you set off after start up and get the oil moving around the engine and lubricating everything is better. If your car has a cold start feature were the engine revs a little higher for 30 to 60 secs I would normally wait until it has stabilised before setting off
