So are you saying that "In Hertfordshire, Herefordshire and Hampshire Huracans hardly happen Eliza" ? RoflBasingstoke Audi (despite being in Hampshire and not Berkshire and therefore arguably less posh ) do regularly have R8s in their showroom and workshop, so you won't be disappointed.
@Sandra, do you have any dates in mind or an idea of timescales?

I've had a few discussions with my contact at Basingstoke Audi now and I have good news and bad news...
Bad news
The dealership is undergoing a £1m overhaul starting in a few weeks' time, so July is out of the question.
Good news
The idea of the meet has been officially approved and a new date of Sunday October 30th suggested to ensure that the overhaul is complete in time. They're fully invested in the idea of the meet and have some fantastic ideas that should make for a very special event. I can divulge the following for now:
- Catering to be included
- Full access to their workshop
- RS & S models on display
- Pre-bookable guided health checks
There are some other plans afoot that I'll keep as a surprise for the day, but if they can pull it off it'll make for an unmissable occasion for Audi fans!
I will phone Newbury see what I can doCould we do Newbury Audi instead. October is faaaaaaaar away ?
Mind you, it looks like you have a few things gong on for Basinstoke! I'll have to contain myself till Oct
I will phone Newbury see what I can do
