Heritage
Audi has always enjoyed an enviable track record in the world of motorsport. An unrivalled
combination of passion, determination, expertise and Vorsprung durch Technik has helped
propel the four rings of Audi past finishing line after finishing line. With the introduction of the
revolutionary quattro®all-wheel-drive technology in the early 1980s came a run of victories that
will never be forgotten. And thanks to a continuing dedication to innovation and progression,
that success has continued right through to the present day. In 1999, Audi entered Le Mans for
the first time. Since then, it has won the legendary endurance race an incredible eight times. It is
in recognition of this unprecedented success that the new Audi R8 was created – a car that has
much more in common with the Le Mans-winning racer than simply a name.
Design and performance
Every detail of the R8’s exterior immediately marks it out as a progressive sports car. From the
emphatic, structural shape, wide air intakes and sweeping sideblades, to the retractable rear spoiler.
But these design features aren’t just for show. Each serves its own purpose, whether enhancing
the car’s aerodynamic potential or cooling the engine which sits directly behind the cockpit.
And that’s no easy task. Both the 4.2 V8 and 5.2 V10 powerplants are extremely high-revving, with
breathtaking performance thanks to FSI direct petrol injection and quattro®all-wheel-drive.
Enabling you to get the most from them are a number of auxiliary technologies – a lightweight
aluminium crankcase, spontaneous R tronic automated 6-speed gearbox and Audi magnetic ride.
Inside its rigid yet lightweight aluminium Audi Space Frame, the R8 has more than a hint of
racing car inspiration in its layout and appearance, with Fine Nappa leather Sports seats, driver
oriented instruments and a leather flat-bottomed steering wheel as standard. The perfect setting
to enjoy some impressive technologies, including the optional Audi parking system advanced
and the 465-Watt 12-speaker Bang & Olufsen surround sound system – if the arresting
symphony of the R8’s engine wasn’t enough.
Read on to discover more about the revolutionary Audi R8, including standard and optional
equipment, paint colours and prices.
Craftsmanship
The Audi R8 is built on a small production line in a specially constructed block at the Audi factory
in Neckarsulm, Germany. The entire production process – from the bodyshell construction to
final assem bly – i s organise d in the same way as it would be in a craft workshop. Small teams
of specialists oversee every step of production, subjecting every part and component to intense
scrutiny. This ensures that every one of the maximum 20 cars built each day will more than
match the customary high-quality standards of the Audi product range.

Transmission
Manual R tronic sequential transmission
By specifying a 6-speed manual transmission for your R8, you can put yourself in complete
control of your driving experience. The system is matched precisely to the R8’s engine
configuration and driving dynamics, allowing you to take full advantage of the broad spread
of engine torque available across its six closely-spaced gear ratios. With its compact design
and low weight, the manual system is a simple, direct way to tap into the awesome power
of the R8. Providing short gearshift travel and precise lever movement, it gives you the
highest possible level of accessibility with the minimum of fuss.
R tronic is a unique technology developed by Audi, which provides swift and seamless
gear-changing for an incredibly sporty drive. Thanks to its groundbreaking electro-hydraulic
shifting unit, R tronic transmits all the force of the R8’s engine power to the road with
unrivalled smoothness and control. And when you switch to S mode, the ride becomes all
the more thrilling: the system delays automatic gearshifts for optimum acceleration, while
the pioneering Launch Control provides the kind of lightning-fast performance that allows
the R8 to spring from a standing start to 62mph in just 3.9 seconds*.

2 data and information
Servicing tailored to your needs
Prior to the 2000 model year, almost all Audi models followed
a traditional fixed Service Schedule similar to that of other
major car manufacturers: a Lubrication Service every 10,000
miles and an Inspection Service every 12 months or 20,000
miles – whichever occurred sooner. Since then, Audi has
introduced a more flexible maintenance system that works
in accordance with how, where and how much an individual
uses their car.
The two Servicing Regimes available are the conventional
‘Inspection Service Regime’ and the flexible ‘LongLife Service
Regime’. When you purchase a new car, we will recommend
one of these regimes to you depending on your own individual
driving style and journey-type. The tables below should give
you an indication of which regime might be more appropriate
for you.
With the LongLife Service Regime, on-board sensors
continuously monitor the condition of the engine oil in terms
of temperature, level and oil degradation. The monitoring
system also checks mileage, brake-pad wear and battery
condition. Using this information, the car’s on-board
computer calculates its own maintenance interval, providing
you with ample warning of a due Service via the ‘distance to
Service’ display.
In practice, this means that every Audi gets the maintenance
it needs, when it needs it. For companies and private owners
alike, there are many advantages to the LongLife Service
Regime. Longer Service intervals mean lower maintenance
costs, and thus lower whole-life costs. According to company
car mileage monitored at Audi since the introduction of
LongLife, petrol engines are typic ally achieving an average
of at least 17,500 miles and diesel engines around 20,000
miles between services.
One of the factors that makes this kind of servicing regime
possible is the advanced engineering and technology that
goes into Audi engines. Furthermore, Audi use high-grade
long-life oils such as Castrol SLX LongLife III, which are designed
to withstand ageing and high loads without deterioration.
Compared to conventional oils, these advanced-formulation
oils also give exceptional levels of engine protection, are kinder
to the environment and deliver average fuel savings of 2.7%.

seven categories:

Type of journey Mainly city/town centre driving. Short journeys
Conditions Frequent cold starts.
High engine loading – e.g. frequent hill climbs,
vehicle fully loaded, towing.
Driving style Uneconomical – e.g. heavy acceleration, heavy
braking, constant changes in speed, constant
use of high revs, ‘sporty’ driving.
Vehicle usage:
Mileage More than 30 miles per day.
Type of journey Motorway and main road driving. Mainly longer
distance journeys. Constant speeds.
Conditions Normal engine loading – e.g. with little or no
towing, with little or no hill climbs. Normal
vehicle loading.
Driving style Moderate acceleration, moderate braking,
engine revs mainly below 3000.
