the Audi R8 ofcourse. Saw two of these on Sunday morning, very nice indeed.

Reckon Audi now make some of the best looking cars, better than Rover, that's for sure

shame it does only 20 mpg.

Yes very nice, although the only one iv'e seen on the road was white, and those black panels made it look like a taxi LOL
My pal has one on order, so might even get a ride in one soon.

Al.

In the words of one crusty the clown:
ME LIKEY VERY MUCH

Very very nice

They tend to make a nice fire too.

Ouch!

eek - thats one expensive roadside BBQ. What a waste!!

Hope they got out OK (looks parked so hopefully they got enough warning), that's going to need more than one bottle of T-cut.

Certainly a lot of the shipping losses were caused by Aluminium alloy boats burning.

Do you remember that picture of HMS Sheffield burning after an Exocet hit - it was on the front page of just about every national paper of the day. See below;

The aluminium fire theory was debunked after the war, but of course the red tops forgot to correct the story. HMS Sheffield had a steel superstructure. The official report claimed the problem was ineffective fire fighting equipment and poor training.

I know the gunnery officer who was on the Sheffield - he reconned he needed another 10 seconds to stop the Exocet but didn't have it - well, that was his story anyway ....
