  • This Audi R8 used to be Andrew's pride and joy. Purchased in 2019 and immediately wrapped in emerald green, it’s safe to say he wanted this car to be seen. Sadly though, a freak hail storm whilst at a car show in Italy left the R8 with some serious damage. The wrap was hastily removed for repairs (leaving lots of glue behind...) and has since been sitting in storage for over a year. It’s now up to the Clean Team to get this 5.2-litre naturally aspirated supercar back where it should be - on the road!

    If you can afford an Audi R8, you can afford a proper detail yourself. Don't have much time for Top Gear stepping in for this job. Maybe start this series with something more viewers can relate to. Also, drop the arbitrary forced time limit thing - it was a tired format twenty years ago. If you've got a day to shoot it, just say so and get on with it.

    I've seen people take more care on their Fiat Punto than this man does on his supercar. How can he drive around in that, while looking like it sat in a desert storm for two years? Take the car away, before he sticks on some flame stickers on the side. Pretty sure those rims are straight out of hot wheels

      I have to applaud both of your observation and deduction skills. You can clearly tell far more about the motives, choices, and life events this man has navigated in the last few years than I was able to from this video. Al I could tell was that the car had been a bit neglected and I didn’t understand why he’d done that. Props to your superior detective work and conclusions.

      @@vipe650r I mean, glibness aside, you're not wrong. That you fail to make the connection between someone owning a £100k sports car (that they openly talk about having had wrapped cause they like to play around with the colour of their cars and that got damaged while holidaying in italy) and the inherent ability for them to afford to pay for it to be fixed and cleaned is a clear sign of our greater deduction skills. Or your own idiocy. Phrase it as you will.

    with this whole series, they say "8 hours", but it's edited. there's no way to tell whether they've spent more or less time on doing the job.
    if it was all done outside then there's a metric to work with (daylight) but it's brought into a garage and worked on after the wash. just because the customer picks up the car during the night doesn't mean that it's the same day. we're told they've spent 8 hours on it. and so, "with the magic of editing" they can spend as much time as they like on it to give it the desired effect.
