VZ Clubsport 6.0
Hey all,

I've owned my VR for 3 years and have decided to upgrade to an R8 VZ Clubsport.

I haven't owned an 8 at all let alone a Clubsport, what are some issues to keep an eye out for and what would be some things that should set off alarm bells when I'm looking for cars?

Cheers

High kms, oil leaks, extremely clean under the engine itself can b because they've degreased it beforehand, gear knob being loose in gears(side to side play), clutch slipping, worn bushes, cracked and rusted exhaust, rust (sometimes underbody of the car will b sprayed black to hide), previous accidents, miss colored panels, log books up to date with services, ripped interior, legitimate stamps of hsv models, revs check for money owing, engine misses at idle, and the usual overheating issues if you come accross it. Take it for atleast a 30min drive and open the car right up.
