    Well no not really. R8 has massive tyres and suspension to suit it's class.

    Teslas have 235/40R19 and mine are 255/40-20 and 285/35-20 yet both have the same acceleration/performance. I know which I feel safer on.

      Still driving a newer Bentley with an older classic or two tucked away. Missus has a hot hatch Audi. Neither of us want to go down the electric route thank you.

                    I'd prefer a 6 litre V12 just to annoy the environmentalists just that little bit more!
