Audi R8 Spyder V10 Performance, 2020. Three owners, 24,505 km, service books from new.

There are marques that tell you what progress is, and there are marques that simply let you hear it. Audi belongs to that second category. At least, it did back when they still thought ten cylinders were a perfectly good answer to a question nobody had asked. And they were right. The R8 was always the odd one out in the Audi stable: a supercar with four rings on it, built on the same recipe as the Lamborghini Huracán, but without the theatrical drama queen and with the level-headedness of a marque that could just as happily build an A4 Avant for the local builder.

I have always had a soft spot for that R8. Not because it was the fastest, not because it had the maddest design, but because it is the last of the Mohicans. When the rest of the car world was already signing up for the electric future, Audi stubbornly kept the faith with a naturally aspirated V10 sitting mid-mounted behind the seats. No turbos to cushion the blow, no clever software mimicking the sound through the speakers. Just five point two litres of German obstinacy, which at six thousand revs starts to wail in a way you now only hear in old Formula 1 footage. A crescendo you would normally need a season ticket at the Royal Albert Hall to enjoy.

And then, on top of all that, we are talking about the Spyder here. Roof down, and what remains is one of the few open cars in which the engine note matters more than the weather forecast.

The story continues on our website, where the full file is kept as well. 125 photographs including the underside. The service history, scanned in full. The Carfax report. Paint thickness measured panel by panel. The original factory brochure to page through. A timeline from 14 July 2020 to today, with every owner and the mileage year by year in a single graph.

Every car here follows the same route: first pre-market, then the showroom, and finally the live auction on our own site. What changes is the way you buy, not the location — once a car has arrived, it stays with us in Katwijk. This one is in the showroom and you are welcome to come and see it, no appointment needed. You buy it here at a fixed price: no bidding, no waiting. Our showroom in Katwijk, 30 km from Amsterdam Schiphol, is open Mon–Fri 9–18 and Sat 10–17. Call ahead and it will be standing ready, with someone free for you.

Within the EU no customs duty arises on this purchase. Registration tax and registration costs in your own country are not included. We supply the export documents and assist with the registration. The price shown is the full price for collection in Katwijk. We arrange insured door-to-door transport worldwide, cost quoted per destination beforehand.

Prefer a different colour or specification than this example? Tell us what you are looking for — another Audi we can often find through our network of marque specialists and collectors, outside the listings. Have one of your own: we buy exceptional cars outright, classic or modern.

Our showroom measures 6,000 m², with over 150 cars under one roof. You are just as welcome if you are not buying — walk around, take your time and enjoy the cars; sharing the enthusiasm is half of it.
