Paul, Sam, Seb and an R8 - this is a KZbin nostalgia trip and half! Love the new R8 content Paul

[@timgoodman9766]

Have to agree, as someone who was inspired by the aforementioned motley crue during lockdown, I've since driven down to Monaco via the Alps for my Honeymoon - this content is absolute nostalgia GOLD, nice one

[@johntearle]

Agreed!

[@alexoliver9201]

The R8 content is fantastic 🎉

[@AbramPT]

This is the best an R8 has ever been. Someone in my city drives this exact spec every summer (just saw it last week) and it gives me chills every time. You absolutely nailed this one, Paul!

[@VaneNaumovski]

Man this gives some nostalgic vibes, it’s going to be a decade in a bit. R8 is looking as beautiful as ever. Btw Paul, I believe there is an AUX port that you can hook up an AUX cable to and then grab a converter, a 3.5mm jack to lightning port and then you can use your iPhone to listen to music. Try it out

[@lewisk112]

I was thinking the exact same thing as the car should come with an aux port

[@citicyclekidd858]

I think it good that you guys talk about the daily life in ownership with living with it and the cost for the fuel & other things. Love the video

[@suckerz01520]

That r8 is such a timeless spec, you’ve done well 🔥

[@julianadams2206]

Great to see Seb back on the channel. Love a road trip and all the better that the vehicle is a more relatable and affordable Supercar.

[@JordieMotive97]

I love the V8 one you had, it's what really got me into your channel all those years ago. Love the V10 too but I've gotta say I'd LOVE to see the Riviera Blue wrap come back haha

[@itsjoel]

Love this. Like old times. You should buy an FM transmitter for the R8, plugs into your cigarette port and allows you to stream music from your phone to the car. Less than a tenner too

[@Tom-se9em]

Buy a bluetooth fm transmitter for your radio. That will work

[@R19Robbin]

Nice to see a roadtrip with this beautiful V10 👌

[@LivingOnCash]

I haven't watched you or Seb's channel for some time now. Sam's as well but just recently started watching his again and now yours. I remember when I started watching Seb he had the Lotus and looked like a 16 year old kid! Funny to see him age. You don't look much different though. 😁👍 Looking forward to the next installment.

[@mahmudfadhiil1135]

Beautiful car paul, love the type of video like this chill and casual relaxing drive

[@jamess200]

Daily drove a 2011 v10 in ibis white for 18k in 18months back in the day - amazing car …..Audi service intervals , stunning looks , iconic engine , slightly iffy r tronic gearbox and woeful infotainment aside - one of the best.

[@cjvaans4484]

Finally, a roadtrip video. I saw a R8 passed by our house at times and it looks good in person.

[@th3b0untyhunter]

Why didnt you get one of those phone chargers with built in Bluetooth to FM. It pairs with your phone and then sends the signal out as a weak FM radio signal - weak so it doesn't break the law but plenty good enough that the car radio can tune into it. Iirc Sam uses one in the 360 or used to

[@CleanFinish2023]

Surely there’s an upgrade to the MMI system you can get?

[@LynxEng]

Car has an aux in port. Just need a usb C or lightening to aux and then an aux cable. Available from any Currys.

[@stephenlane9168]

Consensus is Paul, you’re back to the content we’ve all been looking and hoping you get back to buddy. Your R8 is fantastic. 👌👏

[@willthegamer6224]

That cold start 😮

[@redemptionx2918]

The neighbours love him 😂😂

[@elmorganou]

C'est génial de te revoir en France ! Profite bien 👌

[@paulscott4058]

I love Seb . Been watching the 3 of you for 10 plus years now. Great to see you back together

[@nishantsaloki8490]

Nostalgia hits hard

[@MisterWiggster]

Just get a £10 radio transmitter so you can listen to your own music through the car??

[@mattsmith429]

amigo hasn't the R8 got an auxiliary input that you could put a bluetooth receiver ??

[@drbrowny90]

Yaaaaas Monaco squad vlog let’s goooooo

[@ezmaass]

The gen-1 R8 is a modern classic - such an icon. A naturally aspirated V10... just nothing like it.

[@porscheguy5848]

SOL keeps killing it

[@WPRO78]

I need a proper video on one of these cars to compare to the 2020 ones

[@macauleyorman-aldworth4306]

Could get a Bluetooth radio transmitter that goes in the cigarette lighter got one for my car and it’s a game changer just an idea

[@jakepayne9822]

Tune2air mate surely that works with AMI in that.

[@barondugger]

Just seeing the cars that were on the road would make that trip worthwhile for me!

[@prolapsed5104]

That ending :O

[@RaheelZahir]

When will you do a hyper mileage challenger with the R8 id love to see that

[@JordieMotive97]

I've seen Audi R8's with Pioneer double din head units with car play, probably a good mod to do for yours lol

[@MrGtrMike]

What kind of watch is that? And wonderful car 👌🏼

[@davidmyers959]

SOL, Great video, could you tell us the name of the insurance company you got such a good deal from ?

[@redemptionx2918]

Not only that but how he got such a good finance deal! I am paying more in insurance a month then he is for financing the R8!!!

[@officiallyterriblehd9118]

Invest in a fm plug in transmitter Bluetooth phone to plug in then tune radio to set station good quality ones don't give alot of interference

[@march3615]

Dude....yer fillin her up with 95?? ya just do not do that....

[@samporter4882]

Out of interest how much do you earn per year ?

[@jeroenvanboxtel8801]

Fuel 98 man

[@SharpblueCreative]

Proper old school SOL - Seb and SOL and soon STG - where’s Shmee?

[@Hugo_WP]

Dream car 🙌🏻

[@Runandgundee]

Do you feel the R8 is better then the AMG GTS?

[@krisb2731]

I’ve had my 2015 manual V10 R8 for 1.5yrs now. Never getting rid of it.

[@Mateusz-jl1sv]

Aux to Bluetooth adapter, few $. Great sound quality, never buy fm transmitters. They don’t sound good at all

[@Lukec4ge]

Why did you not get a Bluetooth receiver/charger to plug into the 12v/cigarette port? Tune into a channel that matches that on the receiver, then listen to your music?🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♂️ £10 from the petrol station

[@georgellewellyn_]

Get yourself a Bluetooth FM Transmitter to solve the music issue

[@deanbenson1915]

I was in the green 356

[@shaanmalik2177]

Can just get a Bluetooth fm transmitter instead

[@mramg6038]

28mpg ish? Seems really decent.

[@wydryfly]

Only thing worse than French radio is French Canadien Radio in Quebec. 😁

[@Freedom-Fighters-World]

4:18 i hope and pray that my eyes are deceiving me.. is this guy putting the e10 95RON fuel in this Audi R8!!! FFS use the 98-99RON!!

[@nasosnasos8054]

Love

[@colinrobertson4569]

Car ownership updates of London.

[@user-ul4wy2lx2m]

I like to watch videos on the r8 because mine stays in my garage 😢

[@etonthompson5175]

I get that you don't want to disturb the neighbors on a cold start. But setting off as soon as you start a cold R8 is, to me, not such a great idea.

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

It's effectively just idling and these are generally pretty reliable engines, it will be fine every now and then

[@alexandrejardin7705]

And it seems he is not pushing at all, it is like the rpm is the same

[@JayEmmOnCars]

Porsche actually used to recommend NOT letting the engine sit and idle. I think the concept was that by putting a little bit of load you'll warm everything up quicker, which is better for it

[@k-man88]

First start up in the morning and sitting idling is causing the most damage as the oil is sitting in the sump so the quicker you set off after start up and get the oil moving around the engine and lubricating everything is better. If your car has a cold start feature were the engine revs a little higher for 30 to 60 secs I would normally wait until it has stabilised before setting off

[@Matthew-ll9ke]

@@k-man88 you'll find the oil moves around the engine if idling or driving. Transmission oil is a different question

[@editpk17]

The product placement is a load of advertising rubish but i love the car

[@BossPau]

Challenges of having a supercar with an outdated infotainment system. Nevertheless, r8 will always be a gorgeous, reliable and comfortable daily supercar. Still best of the best!

[@Shyted]

Is this the guy scamming people as Hussain Delaney?

[@nikdanish2979]

You need to warm up your car mate 😅😅

[@nikdanish2979]

Welcome back mate

[@2hislopa]

He don't read comments

[@th3b0untyhunter]

It's a modern Audi not a 60/70's Ferrari. That won't do it any harm at all

Paul, I am a forex trader. What should I buy as my first ever car? I will be ready to buy something in about 6 months I think. Budget will be around £8K pm.

[@Joe-lz6gz]

At 8k pm you can pretty much buy anything you want

[@suckerz01520]

As long you got insurance sorted for your circumstances and deposit sorted, get a huracan to start or r8 and go from there :)

[@sl7608]

Ha ha ha forex trader with 8k a month for a car… you absolute trumpet. Let’s have it right, in 6 months you will be driving yourself to your job at McDonald’s in a 90s fiesta. 8k a month,, you absolute sausage 😂
