I think the R8 looks nice in person. I remember when they first came out last year or so and were very much the trendy expensive car to have. I was just having drinks with my boyfriend at the Blue Bar at the Berkeley Hotel in London and was waiting outside while he paid. Well someone pulled up in the R8 to have the valet take it. And normally when you are in Knightsbridge you are used to seeing loads of Bentley's/Jags/Rolls with loads of leggy Russian women getting out of expensive cars. But the woman who got out of the R8 was this frumpy Russian woman with red hair wearing a bright pink sweater with fuzzy strawberries all over it.
It made me smile. I know that's OT for the thread but I think the story is so funny
