It sounds awesome! Sounded way better than the R8 I had a play with today.

There is one decatted that hammers it regularly through the village with the sound bouncing off the houses. In fairness they sound immense. I thought it had a hint of 6 cylinder about it, similar to a GT-R. Shame they are driven generally by idiots.

Thing is they sound immense. They look OK. They aren't great to drive. Not bad, by any means. But a golf r has it covered everywhere bar straight lines.

It's neither here nor there for me. It's not a great drivers car, and in comparison to a RR it's not a great daily.

Why not a great daily? Its got 5 doors and a boot?

The R8 doesn't have a great sound at all. Especially the V8. The V10 was maginally better but it's supposed to be a more reserved supercar is it not? I want noise. Aston noise.

Surely it has the noise as they rev quite high don't they? Just take the silencers and sound deadening out?

I love coming in here to see another mans world ending dilemma over a car i lust most and a f**king Range Rover Sport.

It makes me feel extra f**king poor.

Who knew one mans unhealthy interest in pigs having sex would make him such a wealthy lad.

I certainly missed a trick whilst I spent time on farms as a nipper.

Hit a piece of wood on the M-way. Needs the front and back bumpers painting now.

Also due its first service and inspection. Joy.

Still fast as f**k like though.
 
There's Two of these RS3's that live close to me, i'am pretty sure they have the 'Sports Exhaust', sounds like all hell is breaking lose when one or both go for a 'hoon' sounds ace!

R8 V10 sounds alot better. Who you trying to kid.
The standard previous gen R8 V10 (not the plus model) was one of the most disappointing sounding cars I've driven.

The plus model was a lot better and the current gen sound good but only at the top end when you get the V10 wail.

I don't see why people get such a stiffy over the sound of a V8. I'd take a five pot turbo soundtrack over most V8s or V10s.

We all have different tastes.

I'm not a massive v8 lover either, unless it revs over 8k. Georg plasa's judd v8 was imo one of the best sounding v8's ever. Massive induction then screaming like a v10 f1 car. My idea of motoring heaven.
The rs3 with straight through does sound awesome. Prefer 6cylinder though.

Up to 17500 miles and no one wants to service it.

JCT600 Audi are useless.

Why does no one want to service it? Unless it has a service pack specific to Audi, take it to any VAT approved Audi specialist.

No one answered the service desk at two dealers after calling 4 times. The one dealer I did get through to couldn't give me a price!

JCT600 have just emailed me saying it'll be £371 for an oil change and to look at it! f**k that.
