Category Archives: Audi R8

Ever wondered which Audi you would choose if you were the highest-paid footballer in the world?

Well, here you go….

Audi is the main sponsor of Real Madrid and the time has come for the players to receive their yearly refresh of cars. Maybe the R8 wasn’t on the menu as it seems most opted for the Q7.  Thankfully there’s an S3, S7, RS5 and an RS6 which means there’s a chance that not all the keys will just be handed over to a family member.

The Real Madrid coach, Carlo Ancelotti, chose the Audi A8 4.2-liter TDI V8.  Mr sensible award goes to Jesús Fernández, who chose the Audi A3 Sportback 2.0 TDI.  Oh and the kids got a car too 🙂


Here’s the full list:

Iker Casillas: Audi Q7 3.0 TDI
Cristiano Ronaldo: Audi RS6 Avant
Gareth Bale: Audi Q7 3.0 TDI

RS246 Meet @ Donington Park

Huge thank you again to Circuit Days for running another unparalleled event.  Great organisation and great atmosphere.

Four of RS246’s members attended in a broad range of cars.  The morning started with a damp track with many cars suffering from the mixture of water and jet fuel (East Midlands Airport is next door).  Lots of spins and offs, but thankfully no significant damage to any cars.  As we approached lunch the dry line started to appear and the sun shone throughout the afternoon making way to some track meister laps from the team.
