Lot 52
 

2017 Audi R8 5.2 FSI V10 Plus S Tronic
***NO RESERVE*** Only 26,000 miles with full service history

Registration – R800 FKU

Chassis No. – WUAZZZFX3H7904629

M.O.T. – January 2027

Odometer – 26,000

Finished in striking yellow with contrasting carbon exterior elements, this 2017 example of the flagship V10 Plus presents in superb order and is offered without reserve. Showing approximately 26,000 miles from new and accompanied by a comprehensive history file, it represents a highly specified example of one of the most accomplished modern supercars of its generation. The vendor informs us the vehicle has been well maintained and drives as expected, with no known faults.

The Plus variant represents the pinnacle of the second generation line up, powered by the naturally aspirated 5.2 litre V10 producing 610 PS, delivered via the S Tronic dual clutch transmission and Audi’s renowned quattro system. Carbon ceramic brakes, fixed rear wing, carbon side blades and extensive lightweight components distinguish the Plus from the standard model, offering sharper dynamics and a more focused character. This example benefits from a full Audi and Audi specialist service history. Its most recent full service and health check was carried out at 25,916 miles, at which time the vehicle received fresh oil, filters, brake fluid and spark plugs, together with two brand new front tyres.

Further enhancements include a valved Brooke F1 exhaust system, professionally mapped to suit, which can be opened at the touch of a button to deliver an evocative and race inspired soundtrack. The car is supplied with both the original carbon rear spoiler and rear diffuser, retained in protective wrapping should a return to standard specification be desired. All wheels have recently been fully refurbished and powder coated in black and present in as new condition. Two keys are present together with the book pack and supporting documentation. The current MOT runs until January 2027.

Introduced in 2015, the second generation V10 marked a significant evolution, sharing its platform with the Lamborghini Huracán whilst retaining a distinct identity. The Plus specification, with its increased output and weight saving measures, has become particularly sought after, representing the final era of naturally aspirated Audi V10 supercars before widespread electrification reshaped the segment.

• Offered without reserve
• Approximately 26,000 miles with full Audi and specialist service history
• Recent comprehensive service at 25,916 miles and highly specified example
