  1. It is worth considering that the individual from whom I am purchasing the vehicle has owned three R8s and is quite reputable within the local automotive community, with several mutual acquaintances. I am reasonably confident that he has maintained the car well; however, I lack information regarding the previous owner. This individual utilized the car as a daily driver, and I have observed him operating it around town regularly. He appears to handle the vehicle with care and respect, based on my observations. I am purchasing this automobile for far less than the market average (47,000 EUR), whereas most comparable vehicles range from 55,000 to 70,000 EUR, although with somewhat lower mileage. Do you believe I am risking a costly lesson with this particular vehicle? Should I place my faith in the individual and proceed?
  2. The wrap is OK; I am familiar with the individual and have seen the vehicle without it several times. It is equipped with Mag Ride suspension, not BC coilovers, and has been lowered using H&R springs. What is your opinion on this?
  3. It seems costly; nevertheless, I can manage a $2,000 repair sometimes, though I likely will not like the expense.😆
  4. Thank you. He indicates that the magnetic ride and air conditioning are functioning well. I want to drive 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers annually. I am acquiring the automobile for 47,000 EUR, which I consider a bargain; thus, I may be able to offset a significant portion of the operating expenses if I sell it in the future. What is your opinion on that price?
  5. The vehicle is "local" and operated by an individual with whom I have several mutual acquaintances, hence I have seen the automobile everyday in the area prior to its wrapping. The asking price is €47,000, which is rather economical. The vehicle is equipped with H&R springs but retains its magnetic ride suspension. What is your opinion on this? I will likely drive 5000-8000 kilometers annually.
  6. I am nearing the purchase of a 2009 first-generation R8 V8 manual, which is wrapped in purple but originally white. I believe I am obtaining a favorable price; however, my primary issue is the mileage—approximately 150,000 km, or nearly 95,000 miles. It is purportedly well-maintained, having just received a new clutch, and has only been driven during the summer months, to my knowledge, with an oil service conducted at the beginning of each season. I am a complete novice in this domain; what do the professionals advise? Is this a danger or am I secure? If you were to estimate a reasonable price for a vehicle of this type and mileage, what would that price be? It is located in Europe, so subject to European or German pricing; I am uncertain if prices in the United States and Europe are equivalent. I want to get a favorable agreement that will either retain its worth or maybe increase. What are your thoughts? Is there anything more I should know? Do you have any advice for a novice? I am 24 years old and have no prior experience with automobiles of this kind, so any advice or points of caution would be welcomed. Thank you, everyone! I apologize if some of my inquiries seem trivial; as previously said, I am a novice.
  7. I may not be in the appropriate thread, but I am seeking guidance on locating a service handbook for a 2019 Countryman All4 R60. Thank you for your assistance.
  8. 120 is significantly overheated. These vehicles should maintain speeds between 80 and 105 in all situations, including inclines.
