To celebrate the 10thanniversary of the R8 V10, Audi has revealed the Decennium edition.
Meaning ‘decade’ in Latin, the Decennium name will be used on 222 units of this limited-run machine, which is based on the recently updated version of the R8.
Fitted with the naturally-aspirated V10 engine that has become a staple of the R8 make-up, the engine develops 611bhp and 580Nm of torque – which gets the Decennium from 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds, before reaching a top speed of 205mph.
Each of the Decennium models come as standard with matt grey paint with matt bronze 20-inch milled wheels – while the front spoiler, side sills and diffuser are finished in gloss black. Carbon fibre detailing is also used on the side blades and mirror housings.

The cabin is finished in black, with carbon fibre inlays and alcantara is paired with leather for the upholstery on the sport seats and steering wheel.
Standard equipment includes the virtual cockpit instrument display and the MMI navigation plus system.
Sales of both the standard model and the Decennium will begin at the same time, with Audi putting cars on sale this spring.
UK prices for the Decennium are yet to be confirmed, but are likely to be around £190,000 – roughly £20,000 more than the R8 Performance it is based on.
