My first test drive as part of the hunt to find my next car and Tony arranged for us to go check out an Audi R8 V10 Plus. As amazing as it was, it had some downsides which mean it might not be the perfect replacment for the F-Type.

Orange with all the black accents... Looks amazing imo
statesidesupercars I think that red looks better with black if you have a look a that
statesidesupercars just saw u in sol's comments
Iron Man had the same spec in Captain America movie :)
It's definitely a bold choice but I thought it looked awesome too
This is literally the best car your money can buy right now
totally agree! but he can't afford it thats why he will say not perfect replacement
Maybe not this specific example but in general he can afford this car.
NO. Porsche 911 turbo.
Mamen Trigueros no
john m In what world is this car faster than a 911 turbo? Are you absolutely insane? That car does 0-60 in 2.6 seconds
I don't see what else could top this within your budget Sam, it's insane!
What about a Hyundai Accent, out of your budget?
I think a Veloster would be more appropriate for this channel ;)
best car in the world,i have a 1999 hyundai accent.some people cant handle it
ride round in a hyundai accent yeah thats wha i move the cracks in
Don't think he's ready for such an upgrade
Hyundai Accent Fan Club He Will not be able to control that kinda power!
The R8 is more of a daily than your "daily"!
Grugus lol yeah
Grugus so true 😂
Lmao, and his 'Daily' is more of a track car than this...
haha yeah
Sam, you face in this video is hysterical. I am enjoying this adventure with you. I know you love the Scud but, but, I think something like this will have you smiling more all day. Looking forward to the next test drive.
+1
+2
I concur!!
agree COMPLETELY docta.
The orange really makes it stand out so much more!
360 CS tho....
sam you need this in your life NOW
Ewan Murphy indeed
Jens _ defiantly my favourite supercar t the moment
+Ewan Murphy it is mine
R8 is too boring in my opinion. Needs something more rare and exotic, not a 2-door A7 :D
+VolvoGustav well hello there, in that case a F430 would be great
I'd prefer this over Paul's Merc
totally agree
well duh this is a supercar pauls is a gt cruiser
bdn_ganG that's irrelevant. It's each to their own. Bet there's many on here who would prefer the Merc, depends what you want from a car at that price bracket. For me,r8 all day every day especially in that colour. Go big!
Fernando Barbosa this doesn't keep the value as good
For sure
This is what happens when you spend a lot of time around super cars on a daily basis: you become calloused, numb, less-excited and simply bored. It happens to all of you guys - look at Salomondrin, Shmee, etc., always wanting something new! Stop for a moment and relish the fact you are driving the greatest cars ever made in the history of automation - your comment of been bored after 6 months driving a 2016 R8 V10 plus and a Porsche 911 Turbo "boring".....really!!! I think you need to buy a car outright, not lease, and you will have more pride of ownership.
Freely and often admit this mad world of CZcams means we become numb to cars. Unbelievably fortunate to be around amazing cars on frequent occasions but I never take it for granted. Even in this video, I mention a number of times that I realise how lucky I would be to own a car like this and how incredible it is, but I have to be realistic to myself. This is the world I now live in. Why settle and not work hard to get something you really love. Lots of cars out there that make my spine tingle from £5,000 up to £500,000 and beyond, just about finding the right one for me
Seen Through Glass 911 gt3.
Awful weather for a test drive and a video but the R8 was very impressive ... however I'm not convinced it's the car for me ...
Seen Through Glass nooooooooo
The R8 is one of my favourite cars, but for you Sam you should get an F430 so much more special! Sometimes I think an R8 is just an R8 but a Ferrari is something more.
360 CS :-) Cmon.
Seen Through Glass hi Sam. How does it compare to the Hurrican ?
Seen Through Glass For god's sake Sam, have you seen where it came in ECOTY? I can't see why you don't like this car
I don't know if youve considered this car, but a 911 GT3 would be a good option
Johnny Salami He don't really like Porsche
Johnny Salami You won't find it for 100k which is Sam's budget
Johnny Salami that's what I was thinking. GT4 too although that might not be enough of a supercar for Sam.
Would be awesome. He said he loved Mr JWW'S GT3
I think that's just me, but in my mind Porsche doesn't really fit Sam.
I thought you didn't want a car that depreciated? Also, why don't you check out Austin Owen? They have lots of different cars in stock in your price range.
don't think he can afford one lmfao
Spider Man Rolls Royce is not even a supercar lol
Venus X well he said he want something that is fast,loud and like a supercar.
+Spider Man what the fuck is up wit you and the ghost it's shit wastes more fuel than a tractor and is shit sound like a bus fuck off did it you hear his criteria
+Spider Man he wants a car that won't lose value a car that makes a nice noise is comfortable and is performance
09:25 Sam: I personally would get bored after 3-6 months.
11:18 Sam: You will never get bored of that sound or speed.
LMAO! What else do you need from a car, since you never drive your car sideways anyway?
In my opinion, the nicest spec is space grey with brown interior.
Zac Higham now that would be gorgeous
James Riding should see it in person 😍
That’s a fact.
Nothing even comes close to the value for money, power, AWD, road presence, sound, opportunities for exhaust systems. GO FOR IT!
No need to test drive anything else honestly its better than anything else at your price point.
for the average weather in the UK you can not i repeat YOU CAN NOT beat the Audi R8
I wish this series could go on for ever. Love it
I love that so many CZcamsrs are getting my dream car because now I get to watch vids on it all the time.
buy either a maserati gran turismo mc stradale, lamborghini gallardo, ferrari 599, ferrari california, or a lamborghini diablo( yes there is one for sale for £119,995)or a lamborghini murceilago(£119,995) or a ferrari 550 maranello, ferrari 360 modena f1(£72950).
the ferrari 360 modena f1 looks really good and same as the ferrari 599 at opulentcars
you really have a good choice of cars sam.
***** he should go for a maserati or the audi r8. I like the california though
DARREN ALFONSO 599's are expensive af but they're minted
Tony looks like he should be signing on the register every week
DaveBibbs to me, he seems the Alan Shearer of car journalism...
DaveBibbs yeah but Tony used to own an R8 so say what you want.
awesome shots, really enjoyed this video, keep up the good work!
Finally youre starting to get it. One of the best cars out there! That noise. Priceless.
7:16 I was so worried the front bumper was going to be riped off just there.lol
The seat stitching... beautiful!
Sam.. this is the car for you dude 👍 the spec and how it looks for the price is unreal man, that V10 sound you will never get bored of it, end of the day it's an Audi, there amazingly good cars, go for it dude!
I dont know the r8 is great, sounds amazing, but i still think that a f430 would suit you better..even tho it doesnt have all the technological stuff..
F430 is so old and outdated... even compared to 458 and the new R8 is even beyond that. Things like gearbox and the infotainment and the performance. I don't think 430 is worth the money.
Andre Tennis this guy want so fuckimg amazing supercar but budget only 100k lol . that f430 is clungky asf
Nik Danish I think we can agree he spent too much of his budget on that stupid fiat :D He could have had 458 and one normal cheap car atleast that's what I would do.
The F40 is also outdated but that is an amazing car. F430 would be sweet, even if it's lacking tech.
Obviously love the idea of a Ferrari but not sure F430 would 100% be the right one. An awesome car but when you're comparing it to things like this R8 or a 12C, it starts to look very dated on all fronts
Car addicts will get bored of any car after 3-6 months. That's why you need to own several cars. No one car will satisfy you ongoing
Probably a fair statement
Seen Through Glass
911 4s, Audi S4, Subaru Sti. I enjoy all of them. The best part is driving one car for a few weeks, completely forgetting about the others and then getting back in another car and enjoying it. However, Audi V10+, plus a nice SUV would be a good life!
Audi V10+ and a 2016 Mercedes G class amg edition. But at that point I think you would want that exotic vibe if you owned the merc too

Please please please don't get a McLaren, im sick of hearing "McLaren" and "MSO" from shmee
CarreraGT HAHAHHA fuckn right??!?
CarreraGT should we tell him
I really like this series. It is really interesting seeing the purchasing and shopping process for one of these cars.
Been waiting for this video!
Just get an F430, get some awesome wheels, a loud exhaust, sick wrap/details on the stock color, scud bumpers!
You should get the R8 Spyder, so your hair can blow in the wind
Wait...
i hated the gen 2 when they were released, a few years down the line now and I'm obsessed with them!
what a colour you had! Gorgeous.
I thought It was you I saw on bluebell hill when I was driving! Great video Sam.
Please buy it. An Audi R8's is my dream car :3
But why should he buy YOUR dream car? :D
True haha
So I can watch even more vids on it ;)
The Blue Audi R8 V10+ at Romans is just the perfect car that suits u
You captured some very wholesome b-roll Mr.Bond. The dynamics of nature, Winter, and rain can ofttimes be quite erotic when digested and regurgitated between analogue and digital worlds.
That sound just absolutely wow
Is the DB11 off the table?
Wayyyy too expensive
Man you have to buy a F430 !!!!!! Are you gonna testdrive it?
Used Vanquish mk2? Seems like the right upgrade from the F-Type to me
Seen Through Glass a DBS with a manual, or a vanquish, or maybe a Ferrari 599
alfa quadrifoglio?
Probably I'm not the only one saying this but a Porsche 991 GT3 would fit you very well!
Greetings from Germany!
Marc Goldschmidt Would be perfect for him (I'm german aswell :D )
Miklas Krys Dann hättest Du ja auf Deutsch antworten können. 😉😄
Marc Goldschmidt eigentlich schon 😂
I might be biased but it isn't a bad option!
Currently (and again) one of the best car/for/money you could buy. Love this orange btw
The V12 Vantage is a thing of considerable beauty
Why not a mclaren 570s or 540c ?
If you buy a R8 just buy the normal V10 and reprogram the ECU, them you get the 610 cv
Renan DeCandio agreed, and put a kit like Archie did in his A45 to get even more haha
No point, all the extras worth having are standard on the Plus.
Dunno if that'd void the warranty tho
DFWs Cars Yeah it would.
archies car has a turbo and the R8 doesnt, so I dont think thats possible...
Sam, I wish you had an idea of what it was like for me to see you literally drive past my house on your videos through Harrietsham and use my daily roads. Its so strange!!
This is by far, THE best review style video series already. The idea of using Tony to help and your limitless enthusiasm and charisma really make this an essential watch.. Its captivating. I don't think anyone else makes the watcher feel so involved as you mate..
Love it.. Cannot ruddy wait for Wednesday and Sunday and I am genuinely bursting with excitement as to seeing what you choose.
My thoughts on the R8 are probably the same to be honest. Its EPIC and something me and many others would love to upgrade to but there is a huge element of familiarity about it and if you are looking for something 'special' is the R8 special enough? Possibly not, but a properly strong contender none the less. You'd be a long time getting board I would think.
Best of luck mate..
Where abouts do u live gov anywhere near the shop on high st
The R8 is sooo much car for the money! I'd be happy to see you in one very soon...You deserve it!
I bought my flat for that money...
Hans I bought a toaster for that money
LOL, I made this mistake too!!!
Ya Know So you live in Venezuela?
BUY A R8V10 ++++++ PLZ PLZ PLZ! GO ON DO IT!
Cash Volpe chill
GT3
looks mad af in that orange too. love this r8 even more than its predecessors
There's one of these (in yellow) in my work's car park and it looks and sounds amazing... go for it!
Sam, why buy an R8 when you could have a Ferrari?
sucramdi exactly
sucramdi I believe this was addressed in the first my next car video
sucramdi $$$
What good ferrari could he buy that is in his price range????
A used 458 can go for around 110k, a 599 is about 95k
this r8 v10 better than the lamborghini huracan
"1st little acceleration" his face and the way he said it had me dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂 6:24 he sounded like a true brit 😂😂😂😂
Hahaha so fun to hear you two laugh and scream to the acceleration haha! Great fun!! :)
I bet $0 he will get an Mclaren MP4-12C
you may want that $0 because he seems to love McLaren and want something mid engine and exotic.
DFWs Cars True man!
Buy it right away its the best choice !!!
Nice to see you test driving in my neck of the woods Sam. Maidstone to Ashford along the A20 and around Leeds Castle is a good drive... in the dry lol
The first shots of the r8 are amazing.
Go for the blue one from your first video:)
Already sold unfortunately
Seen Through Glass too bad:/ but be sure to get a r8 or 458!:D
At that price it makes sense.
lmao get a gt3, aren't they at 100 grand over there yet? It won't look as crazy but I doubt you'd get bored of driving it.
I'm not a massive Porsche guy but GT3 probably one I would consider. Hoping to check one out again soon
Yes just go for the R8 v10 plus because this is the most practical supercar I've ever seen!
that colour makes it look sooo much better.... It is a great buy Sam
Hexagon Classics have a Ferrari F430 F1!!!!!!!
Anonymous he needs one
omg omg no wey supr rare find br0
The 12c is so outdated and it is even considered as the worst of the McLaren range.
Boxing Emperor who told you that? It was there only car at one point so how was it there worst car?!
ZigSteenine I am talking about now. McLaren execs see the 12C as a mistake. Look at how fast it was replaced, the problem was that it looked very dated when it was launched. The 650s was the first proper mass produced McLaren car it was considered the first launch car.
He's right, plus it's not very reliable and the bills are absolutely bonkers. The increadible suspension might be incredible when it's working, but when it goes bad it's a 35.000$ bill. New battery? 3.000$, any of the interior electronics? too bad, they hardly make them any more so you'll have to replace it with (brand new) S650 stuff, which means sky high prices again. It's not a problem when the car is under warranty but when it's not it is an absolute money pit. Ever wondered why the 12C depreciates like a falling brick? This is why.
The colour is amazing and I love this model!
The noise when you're driving over bumps comes from the bearing between the chassis and the suspension. I believe youre referring to the same issue that the S3 with magnetic ride has.
After Audi swapped the bearings of the rear suspension, the noise was gone.
you should buy the R8 dam, you're basically getting a Huracan for half the price.....
Should get the Porsche 911 Carrera GTS.
This thing in all black DREAMMMMM
The only part of the video that wasn't annoying and you bang an advert right in the middle. Well done.
Nice car Sam. This series has the potential to be very good, if you would just stop with the stupid faces and the random screams... they make this too hard to watch. Otherwise... good work.
That's his character, that's what makes him make this series great. So if anything he needs to keep up with those things. It was just weird not seeing the intro. Guess I got used to it...
Disagree man, he has only recently started doing this... they all have, even that imbecile Shmee has started to do it... as if he isn't irritating enough lol.
Do it
the gearbox makes it worth the money. lightning quick and sounds amazing
In my opinion get it it's an absolute headturner and it's good for the money so I think this is your type of at colour etc! STG...Buy this car you'll love it
I've never got excited about R8s. Big TTs.. as it were.
You just stick to your mum's Fiesta. Good boy.
Neil McMahon You silly boy.
Christopher Bell "just a big TT"
When it shares hardly anything in common with a TT. Good one you dumb shit.
Hassan 504 You should learn a little more respect or maybe you just need to grow up.
Christopher Bell Haha typical response from someone who has no valid reply, because you know you were wrong in the first place, get outta here with your false authority, I'll say what I like, as long as its not a brain dead comment like yours.
Audi has managed to make a good car.
But also to make a mid engine supercar almost as boring as a station wagon.
It´s the most boring mid engine supercar ever made along with the Honda NSX.
Try a Ferrari 599 GTB.
Not mid engined, but a V12 Ferrari.
Boring can be other things than the performance.
I mean it looks boring.
Especially the interior.
+Denis Spratt most advanced tech interior and its boring? Lol you probably drive an astra
Yes it is boring looking.
As i have written.
It is a good car but it is boring.
Cause it is to similar to any other normal Audi.
point very well made sir
you're right, audi's, vw's, porches,... are all great cars but they just look so boring compared to the italian/british alternatives imo.
I know you want something a little newer but if you get an F430 with a manual, you will have a hell of a car and a hell of an investment piece! Not to mention that it'll fit you well!
That spec is awesome
r8= youtube money car
That's a gtr. I haven't seen anyone else with an r8 except some faze fuckass
That's a gtr. I haven't seen anyone else with an r8 except some faze fuckass
Essjay and because YOU haven't seen them does that mean the guy above you was wrong?
The F2 Freestylers guy. Paul's old R8.
Liam McDonald AliA
Maserati Granturismo Mc STRADALE is the way
Awesome video!
The other guy's emotions at 7:50 are priceless
Get it Sam!! Such a beast
that black 430 scuderia that you saw on a dealer, amazing car, great price too.
What was your car(Abarth) doing driving around in Staffordshire this morning? was behind you and saw the car pull over but it wasn't you driving! looking forward to seeing the vid if there is one
Since I have a Jag Conv. I'm really interested to see your next choice. good luck!
do right handed cars have the indicators/wipers reversed as well or are those the same layout as left hand cars?
Tony got proper excited hahaha
Great video!
I literally live just around the corner from this!!
I neeeed the name of the song at 13:50. Know it's monstercat but the actual songname pls, thx!
I've been waiting for R8!
What a great car Sam! Obviously do try more cars first😉👌🏻
This needs to be the one.
and the color is perfect
Love the orange on that new face R8, gorgeous.. are there no 540 or 570 used models under 140k you can find?
Haha this dude right next to sam looks like the dad from next door but on the other hand he is wearing a douche gold Rolex haha love this guy
I bought one of these in June 21 and bloody hell it's amazing! Unfortunately I've driven it once in about 6 weeks and only because I'm too busy 😢
What a great car this is Sam.
