trev0006 Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Audi R8 test drive ends crashing in a river The 33-year-old Dutch man from the town of Woerden in the Netherlands went by his local Audi dealership to check out a brand spankin' new R8 supercar... and then proceeded to drive it into the nearest river. The driver was reportedly speeding – 80 mph according to police, but closer to 125 if you ask some of the bystanders – in a 50 zone when he hit a bump, lost control and skidded into a !Removed!. Although local law enforcement authorities are reportedly investigating the incident, nobody was hurt. The same cannot be said, sadly, for the car, which is reportedly in a repair shop where the dealer's insurance company will surely declare it a write-off.
jcrome04 Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Right where a VW product belongs! I wouldn't expect any less of it! hahahahahahhahahahahahahh Really though that SUCKS! No injuries?? I bet there was a little permanent damage done to the Dutchman's ego!
raymsixsix Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 I'm not contesting that it didn't happen, but the pic looks kinda strange, like it was photoshopped or something. Either way, very embarassing for the driver LOL :D :D :D
Blayd Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Actually I dont c how that would totall it it doesnt look that bad and I doubt the engine was ruined.
SW03ES Posted August 21, 2008 Posted August 21, 2008 Any kind of water like that is an automatic total, its a flood car.
Sc400=Delirium Trigger Posted August 22, 2008 Posted August 22, 2008 Does Audi offer oars as an option ??? ahhaha nice :D
LexKid630 Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 That really does look photo-shopped. But either way, it's a shame!

Captain Meeks Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Sorta like the low profile of it sitting in the trench...lol... looks kinda like it belongs there.. maybe a duckcar in Audi's future... Now that would be fine German engineering.
dcfish Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Maybe the car is climbing out of it's birthplace
