When I wrote the first one of these, I think I promised a second update would follow in a couple of weeks time. It"s now been over a month. Sorry about that. If you want to read the first story about life with an R8 V10 Plus, click here.Now, I don"t know if you saw the magazine last month, but this was the cover - and one of the key reasons we choose a bright, stand out colour. If the R8 had been black or grey or blue we wouldn"t have put it in the front left corner, simple as that. Yellow stands out.I know the bumblebee colour scheme is a brave choice, but personally I think it works as well in reality as on the cover of the mag: it"s striking from far away, but when you get up close you notice the detail in the carbon work on the mirrors, sideblades and wing.
