Teamspeed First Drive: Audi R8 V10 Plus

The 2013 R8 gets a mild cosmetic makeover, with new lights seemingly the major telltale sign. But the new V10 Plus is a de-specced bombshell that will frighten the children. It wasn’t until Saturday that I got a fresh perspective on the Audi R8 V10 Plus, four days and several hundred miles after I’d been handed the keys. We were driving into central London for a visit to the theatre and I reckoned the R8 was the way to go.
