2011 Audi R8 GT
Number 17 of 333 built – 1 of just 33 UK supplied – collector grade
The Model
Revealed in 2010, the R8 GT was quattro GmbH’s ultimate expression of the first generation R8, built in a strictly limited run of 333 individually numbered examples worldwide, of which just 33 were UK supplied. The 5.2-litre V10 was raised to 560 PS, while an extensive lightweighting programme including thinner glass, carbon fibre components, and a lightweight battery cut around 100 kg from the standard car. The result was 0 to 62 mph in 3.6 seconds and a top speed of 199 mph, making the GT the fastest and most focused R8 of its generation, with ceramic brakes, uprated sports suspension, and the six speed R tronic gearbox all fitted as standard.
The GT has since become the collector’s R8. Its combination of the naturally aspirated V10 at its most potent, a production run a tenth the size of an ordinary model year, and quattro GmbH’s hand in its construction places it in a different category to the standard car, and the best examples are now tightly held.

The specification carries the GT’s signature details throughout, including carbon decorative inserts, the carbon fibre skin headlining, an Audi exclusive centre console in matt carbon, Audi exclusive floor mats with the R8 logo, the R8 GT logo to the seats, and LED headlamps.
The car has been tastefully enhanced with a valved exhaust system, OEM Audi LMX wheels, and an OEM rear view camera, with the original set of wheels accompanying the car. A Thatcham S5 tracking system is fitted for security, and the entire body is protected by full coverage XPEL paint protection film.
Servicing has been carried out by Audi main dealers and marque specialists throughout, with twelve recorded entries from the pre-delivery inspection through to the most recent service in April 2026.
