I need to run in my new Audi R8 for 1,000 mile before I could properly thrash it. So I decided to drive to the Nurburgring and back. This did enough miles that while there I could do my first ever 0-60mph launch in it. But when I got back to the UK I decided to take the Audi R8 Spider to a runway and do a full quarter mile test. How fast can this 5.2-litre V10 supercar go... Watch the video to find out. - Auta a dopravní prostředky

Mat what’s the difference between a i20 and a Getz? Day 232
When is your GT3RS getting delivered? It's been more than 3 months now.
The car fits you Mat, keep up the good work.
Next race on Carwow: AMG One VS Aston Martin Valkyrie VS McLaren Senna
😂hey ,YOU HAVE SECOND CHANNEL 😂 TO MUCH FOR ME... GET OF FROM NET.
2:10
"This is the British side so they're quite nice"
Also the British side :
*Can you not film here please*
He did say please
Lmao
Not exactly an unreasonable request
@@syko2695 Yes, but asking that simply for having a mounted camera in his own car, pointed at himself, that seems a bit unnecessary to me. Matt was filming himself, not the guard or the checkpoint itself, they were just in the background by coincidence and it's a place that's accessible to the general public, so what harm could being in the background of a short video possibly do?
@@moogle68 They weren't in the background by coincidence, he drove there with the intention of filming himself talking to the guy 😂😂 If he doesn't wanna be on camera, it's his choice.
Love Matt's interactions with people :D
Everyone is like, Matt is quite eccentric, but we love him! 😁
With that R8 spider Mat looks like british Tony Stark 😅
More like Swiss Toni 😂
Matt is living dangerously in these times of easily offended individuals.😂
He likes to live on the edge. 😂 adrenaline pumping thru veins😂😂😂
We gotta keep up the banter people because the way it's already going is ridiculous tbh. How can anyone feel offended when it's a obviously a bit of fun and no ill intentions or personal offence intended. Just banter and fun that's all. Heck the kind who we have to be worried about offending would have a heart attack or mental breakdown likely both b4 10am with the lads at work it's ruthless no mercy but it's all good fun, said he's straitened me granny's back out the weekend by🤔🤔 you can guess the rest lol
What did he do?
He’s literally the modern day Clarkson.
@@magnustan841exactly what I thought
Love this type of vlog mate !
We need more of this grand tour
Matt is a very funny guy for this kind of vlog. I want Matt to drive around in a nice car while giving commentary on the state of our country
Ok this was better than a Carwow episode . ✅😃
I really hope this video goes viral in Britain, so our fellow brits can see it's actually possible to follow the highway code and move out of the way, like the hyundai, like the astra, etc. All you have to do is check your mirrors, indicate then change lanes. Oh yeah, and use the 3rd lane only if you overtake, pretty simple, no? Brilliant video Matt
Lol paying out the lesser TT next to you made me laugh
One of the masters of dad humour.
Once you switch from carwow to Mat’s personal channel you realize he is more of an entertainer than a journalist. His charisma and ability to entertain his audience have not many parallels. 😄
Cars that Matt requested for us to spot (from interior apparently talking before racing at "Ring)
10:46 Suzuki Jimny, 10:52 looks like a Renault Megane coupe, 11:10 Porsche 911 , 11:15 looks like a back of old Range Rover, 11:31 is Toyota yaris GR or Supra GR,
from 11:50 he moved back into Gimny, 12:02 looks like the same tan interior from the 911-Porsche..
It's an s8
Not a Renault
Idk tbh I think it's an S8
It’s his X5 not a Range Rover
It's not a range rover, BMW leather is unmistakable.
2:42 those are some dangerous and brilliant jokes. Same for the fake subtitles 😂😂😂😂
You are living my life Mat , and enjoying it , that R8 is dope 💪🏼
If this video was in CARWOW
Mat would be dead from all the kick
He also would have said "click the pop out banner in the top right corner or follow the link in the description" about 100 times
2:45 Mat is playing a dangerous game.
Really enjoying these types of video, Matt :) thank you!
Wow really you doing 95 in an r8 ???!!! Couldnt believe my eyes xD.
I know. When I had my R8 I never put 95 in her. Rather not drive her for a few days lmao 😂
@@AM-bn8xm did you walk?
Matts like a real life Alan Partridge !
Lol this is spot on
😂 I’ve always thought that but was too scared to say 😂
No, that's an insult to Partridge!
Partridge is funny.
I just passed up 1 year of ownership of my Solar Orange 2017 V10+ and I have to say, listening to Matt, as a Matt, is like seeing myself and its hilarious. Every single time I start Natalie, it is like the first time. It is so nice seeing someone that loves these cars as much as I do, sending it full throttle and hitting the roads like the car was designed. Enjoy Matt and keep up the great content!
Love seeing you having fun and living life! Carry on!
Good video. So much better than those boring and repetitive drag races. Well done 👏
Great job Mat. That’s a sweet ride 👌🏼
Congratulations Matt! You got one of my dream cars! Enjoy!
Enjoyed meeting you on that trip! Hilarious video 😂
Color in that R8 makes me crazy never seen one with that before well spec matt
You’re almost at 1 million subscribers, Matt! Keep driving😉😉
Kudos being kind and chatting with the kids car spotting 👍🏼
Beautiful video . A nice ride from UK to GERMANY with a high performance convertible , it is a pure dream. Amazing performances for the R8 after some miles . Thank you for this dream, MAT.
Matt is legend
Hope to grab a selfie with you one day
Thanks for always cheering me up
R8 Just the sound of that engine! Epic ❤
Nearly at the Mill' Matt - well deserved too, many years going up the hill!
THATS A CLEANNN R8 MAT
It's a beaut brother 👍🦾
Sweet ride, stunning colour. VDT.
16:08 and probably because of the 95 fuel you put in it the car programs itself to run with lower performance
More of this please
Really enjoyed this style of vlog.
We all know that Mat loves warm nuts 😂😂
Mat Watson - the Mr Bean of car reviews
Wow the sound on that first pull on the track at the end *chefs kiss*
It is fun to watch you matt
I wonder if the 0-60 would improve if you fueled up with 98 rather than 95
Was wondering that myself.
It would definitely slightly improve, but you can't get much more than 3 sec 0-60 out of the Spyder anyway due to it being heavier and having less downforce (no spoiler). My coupe v10+ can do 0-60 of 2.6s all day.
Would improve if he was driving by himself too!
Barely improves man the only people who think it does are those who swear shell V-power makes their hot hatch quicker 😂
@@dontdoit114 you do realise, that downforce slows a car down in a straight line......... Doesn't Mat have the rear wheel drive, so that's the biggest difference, traction off the line, the upside being more fun to drive though.
Mat should make more vlogs, i think it would be fun
Great to have seen you, mate.
Matt, I love you even more after watching this video ! Its so funny and interesting! You are cool guy 👍👋✌️🫡😅
Do a test with 95 vs 98 fuel on a dyno. You will be suprised. 07:09 and 15:19
95 fuel is really bad for the engine!!
@@dinges8561no
An A8 and you nickel and dime on fuel? Really?
@@richardhoulton4016 That does count for the performance, so yeah I do, especially when there is an engine with a lot of horsepower in it
czcams.com/video/d8L-X89duEs/video.html
@@dinges8561no, it reduces power and increases CO2 emissions, but it's not bad for the engine if the manufacturer says it can fill it with both. The engine management has knock sensors that adjust the injection timing and the amount injected to avoid this. Manufacturers know what they are doing.
It's good to say that in altered cars this doesn't work like that, but then it's the tuner's responsibility
i love the ridiculous unfiltered nonsense that mat always says! never know what he’s liable to say lmao
Gorgeous color combo, Mat 🤌🏽
congrats on the sweet ride
Mat was on form this video lmfao
Hi matt!
I was wondering if you can do the 3000 hp SUV vs rimac nevera
I want to see te Quater mile time of that cause of how well that thing beat the sf90
Mat is King 👑 Love this content
Great choice Matt. I owned a 2017 R8 V10 Plus. Brilliant cars.
Absolute beauty Mat! Love the color. Nice wheels as well. Wonder why its a bit on the "slow" side though, is it due to it being a Spyder (less downforce and a tad heavier)? My coupe V10 Plus does ~2.6-2.7 sec 0-60 and a 1/4 mile of 10.5-10.6 sec all day.
EDIT: After looking it up - Spyder 0-60 is about 3s and quarter mile of about 10.9s. So exactly what you would expect. Enjoy the ride Mat!
stop saying less downforce makes it slower in a straight line 🤣
@@davidkn This is a fact my friend. Please do your research. Downforce creates more vertical force on the tires and therefore grip - therefore especially noticable when launching a car as one can apply more torque before the wheels start to slip. Also, it minimizes drag as it allows the car to reach higher speeds quicker. What else would you say contributes to a literal 0.5 sec difference in 0-60 times while the coupe and spyder? The 50-100 KG difference would not contribute to such a loss; I'd say its esp. the difference in downforce.
@@dontdoit114 you’re funny, I gave you a chance to stop your nonsense and then you dig a deeper hole 🤣. Downforce isn’t at play when you take off, the faster you get the more it makes a difference. More downforce equals more drag, slower speeds. More spoilers ok a car, slower it is in a straight line, but the faster it can go around corners. Case in point, the Porsche GT3 and RS are slower in a straight line than lesser models bric-à-brac the downforce slows them down, they are built for cornering around a track fast. Formula one should be your lesson, if they increase the downforce, they can’t go as fast on the circuits with long straights. You couldn’t be more wrong. A classic case of, all the gear, no idea I’m afraid.
@@dontdoit114 here’s a recent review on the performance from Evo. The difference is 0.1 seconds on the convertible, and downforce only comes into play with top speeds. Calculations are normally done to 62mph too (100kph).
With sophisticated launch control and rapid-shifting gearboxes, all R8s can record rapid 0-62mph times - 3.7sec for the RWD, 3.4sec for the RWD GT and 3.1sec for the Quattro.
Audi also quotes a top speed of 201mph for the RWD with the Quattro topping out at 205mph; the RWD GT falls just shy of 200mph due to its draggier high downforce aero setup. The Spyder versions of the RWD and Quattro reach 62mph just 0.1sec slower than their coupe counterparts, with 1mph slower top speeds. Although the Quattro offers higher performance than the rear-drive model on paper with a significant increase in power, the result isn’t that noticeable on the road. You’re never left wanting for more speed or quicker acceleration in the RWD, but if you do want the extra power of the Quattro, you can opt for one of the 15 RWD GTs coming to the UK fitted with the uprated 611bhp V10.
@@dontdoit114 thats the biggest bullshit ive ever seen. Since when u have downforce while launching? It increases drag, so having downforce would make the car slower at high speeds going straight. It only goes faster in corners, thats it.
Can't believe you went for the 95 octane Mat I'm sure it's supposed to run on the best possible fuel
Same...
Like he said, he’s gonna burn it off on the highway. He’s not using it for high performance driving on the track so it’s not that important.
@@click1click1click He's launching it!! that requires optimal conditions and optimal fuel. The cost to fill that with premium would be less than £10 extra so makes no sense to me when your driving an R8!
Mat, you are an absolutely amazing entertainer! Im sure you would be just as good doing non-car stuff on TV given the right format/show. Always dancing the line, but balancing it very well, quick, sharp and honest, but never seems really mean. Its great to have a brain that cant be controlled :D Youre guiding it well tho :)
Matt has always been a free bird ..😂
Mat's transformation into Alan Partridge is going along nicely 😁
I absolutely love that car- color combo is exactly what I would go with if I spec’d it. I have 2013 Allroad that’s Dark Blue with the Cocoa interior. Looks very expensive and everyone compliments me on the color combination
Good honest way to speak about sponsor
Dude, muh man here Mat W is hilarious af! He’s just living it off kicking it to the max😂 😂
why fill 95, even with 98 you will get more range even if the cost is more. It is also much safer for the engine. I don't think mat owns the car but it is temporarily given to him by carwow otherwise he wouldn't run 95.
He is officially a millionaire, and doesn't matter that he doesn't own this car . As an online "expert" he should know that this kind of car needs A98 as regular fuel
@@krasimirkostov20 Doesn't matter if he's a millionaire or not. So many people are millionaires but that doesn't take away the fact that you should look after your cars. This car deserves 98 or higher and nothing lower. He was flooring it on 95 fuel and going over 200kph when he said he was just going to cruise in it whilst on 95. 95 fuel has less knock resistant and is not good for the engine, yes the engine will probably detune itself when the sensor detects 95 but still 98 should always be used.
amazing channel, didn't think it can get better than carwow, but Mat is just that good!
brilliant! :D
good laughs, good info!
On your acceleration runs, using 95 Octane fuel should give you less power than 98 Octane.
95 Petrol in the V10 R8 😢 my heart stopped! Check the manual Matt, it needs Super Plus -98!! This engine is not made for 95.
Yes, this was most stupid things Matt made. Even normal cars getting better when you fill them with A98.
I like these long trip videos
That v10 sound is music to my ears 😍
We need more of this, funny ass bugger. Keep up the BS humour. 👌
Don't u have to change the engine oil after the engin runin?
My thoughts exactly.
no, only when service is due
@@hassyg4083 Maybe in some basic corolla it's not really worth the swap BUT with a brand new R8 I would do it.
For example on every motorcycle engine it even states it in the manual. Oil capacity is of course bigger on cars but still during the run in period the oil tends to get much more contaminated with micro particles from the new engine. This is why it's called a run in period in the first place.
@@PatchedBandit doesn't matter. anyway combustion engine is on its way out due to EV so lower running costs finally
Awesome jam jar😮💨👌
Nice car Matt.. Very nice👌🏽
What is more daily friendly, this or the 911?
911 has more space
i think they are pretty much the same
911 better
911 is also more fuel efficient because most of them are turbocharged these days.
@@tekniro6204 911 definitely has more space, you have back seats where you can put your luggage. In the R8 you have only the frunk.
Gotta love Matt
LOVE uncensored Matt.
Ridden motorbikes for years and always favoured a hard run-in - there’s evidence that it seats the piston rings better, which means you use less oil and it makes for a more powerful engine overall.
In terms of durability some of these bike engines have revved to 16,000 rpm and been totally reliable for the years I’ve owned them 👍🏻
What is a hard run-in? Is there a soft run in?
you know more about it than the manufacturer lol you a phd of engineering?
@@saulespino2510 manufactures recommendations are usually termed a soft run in because of the specified rev limits for the first X number of miles.
@@hassyg4083 it comes from the mechanics in bike race teams, they know about extracting maximum performance from an engine and they favour using all the revs from brand new - they’ve also noted the piston ring difference from a softly run in engine and noted the increased oil consumption.
@@simondrew7346 they know more than Audi engineers
Question
Is it not recommended to vary Rpm during the run in phase?
i think the car would limit the rpm itself during that time
Great video 🙏❤️
Hola matt siempre pendiente a tus viedos saludos desde Panama
This is the British side here they're quite nice:
British side oi can you stop filming here 😂
It hurt me seeing 95 being put into a sports car 😢
he did it on purpose, ofc he uses only 98 :)
@@dreamseeker9207 hope so!😅
You have the passion 😅
1000 miles, let's rev it all the way 😎
I would have rev it on day one 😉✌️
Absolutely love the car 😂❤
Great video my favourite supercar
This was gold to watch Matt I would love a road trip with you lol
I also always do the obligatory “haaw hee haaw “ when entering France 😅
