    Not talking about youtube, top gear, race tracks, forums, dealerships or test drives.

    But just on a normal commute around town or to work? I have only seen 3!

    -town centre, driving the other way
    -m25 in the fast lane (no surprise!)
    -parked up on the kerb! Surely it deserves a proper car park than outside the pub on the kerb? (saw it this evening!!! brand new too as it had 58 plate)
    COMING SOON: '14 A5 Cabriolet S-line Special edition, Daytona Grey
    CURRENT: 11' A5 S-Line Black Edition Ibis White
    previous: 09' A3 S-line Ibis White

    I've seen about two/three R8s... one on the motorway, one near Aston University and one in Tettenhall (Wolverhampton). There's also a feature about the R8 on iMotor's website:
