Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

ORIGINAL: MrDemon I have driven the R8 many times and been on the R8 vip day with Audi the V8 feels slow, the inside is a bit dated, the car is WIDE it has no space to put any thing, the R tronic is cronic. so that leaves the V10 manual or the newer DSG, issue with V10 is 17 mpg, it's still wide and no where to put any thing, but it's very nice :) but you can leave the 50k older V8 alone imo. unless it's just a pose machine.
Must be Poets Day[:D][;)] the R tronic is cronic.

The car was parked in our Hotel in Soissons France whilst on our WOTY - where else could that happen?[&:]

Left overnight with roof up. On the morning unveiling what else would you expect to find in France?[8|]
Always thought you drove at a snails pace[:D][:D] or will it make escargot any faster ??[;)]

I can well believe that http://youtu.be/Im5BSKMd0Ss If it can't carry any more speed through a series of corners with it's extra ~100hp vs our Spyder, then I can't see motivation for 'upgrading' from the Spyder to that type of larger, 'higher tier' car.
 
My son has just reported sighting of a white spyder in Diss, Norfolk. Reg. TAG 11. Anyone on here know if it's local to this area? My red spyder now looking good for the trip to France this weekend, just got to change the number plates to include GB, don't like it on there normally, spoils the colour scheme!
