Knob.
I'm not sure I'd call black + paedo leather an 'exceptional colour scheme' either.
Plus its clearly been thrashed on a track.

If you were a millionaire wouldn't it be fun to provide proof of funds and state in your letter that you just want to cut it up with a chainsaw for "shits and giggles".

He does seem to be a bit shiny.
If he does not need to sell the car, why is it being advertised? A couple of feet short of a yard to me.

He didn't even buy it new, FFS. Romans sell loads of cars to twats like him.

Yes, I think we can all agree that he comes across as a prize-winning bell-end.

I only looked at the pictures. They were enough to put me off.

I quite fancy a manual R8 though. Coupe though and not sure I'm fussy whether it's a V8 or V10.
Pipe dream though.

I have a friend who works at a Land Rover dealer and he gets offered the trade ins at cost. A few months back he was offered an 80k mile R8 v8 for £24k.
Edited to say it was a v8. One of the very early ones.

My opposite neighbour has an R8. He's a high-end carpenter. I remember back in the day a project manager friend sold his Omega Seamaster watch because a chippie on site had turned up wearing one so he couldn't be associated with a tradesman. I feel the same about the R8.

Because a "tradesman" drives one?

The R8 does tend to be the knuckle draggers vehicle of choice, even more so than the GTR.

I must admit he's not the kind of chap I'd invite out to a black tie event

He's obviously more than a bit insecure in his social status. And wearing the watch for the statement value rather than because he likes it.

Have you seen how much plumbers charge? No wonder they're all minted. I've yet to meet a poor plumber.
Tradesmen are not always at the low end of earnings.

Project manager bloke sounds like a right snob. I expect bog cleaners in Saudi wear those watches. Probably have one in each colour...

I wouldn't buy an R8 as my neighbour has one and it looks a bit "keeping up with the Jones'" for my liking. |

The R8 does tend to be the knuckle draggers vehicle of choice, even more so than the GTR. I followed a twattishly driven V10 R8 out of Leicester a couple of weeks ago. Fitted that stereotype to a tee. It was constantly up and down the gearbox, harsh acceleration, harsh braking, etc. That advert is hilarious. How far up us own arse is he? |
