A possible new R8 member A nice hey to everyone in the forum here I just signed up here & wanted to introduce myself briefly My name is Joey and I am 30 years old for some time now I am thinking of buying an R8 and I’m now landing at your forum I hope so I’ll be well received Currently I drive a 5.0 Ford Mustang which just doesn’t make me any fun anymore (in the Mustang forum I’d definitely be stoned now HAHA) I’ve also e I’m looking for a little purchase advice from you & by the way I thought I’d introduce myself before Villeicht could you help me there And although I’m looking for the slightly older R8 2007 – 2012 .42 – before facelift I’ve found a couple between 80T-110T kilometers price-wise lying between 55-65 thousand but all the dealers I’ve found now sell the cars as a customer order now to ask me 1.From when did you have the first problems with your R8 2.Requires that at all an R8 with 100,000 km to buy without warranty or warranty (since most are sold in the customer order so that the drop off) 3.Bsp I buy that car driving from hof it turns out that it was a rental car & in the next 2 months I have once a motor damage without warranty & warranty 4.I have also read that at 170T km an M otorrepair would be necessary this is price-wise also not without 5. Should I completely ignore private sales 6.Is it possible to insure the engine & that gearboxes otherwise via external used cars guarantee (and has made someone already) I hope I could imagine well :=) and also hope that I can be with you soon also 100% then with the first pictures of the R8 Joey
