As the cost of bringing a new car to market increases, car manufacturers have tended to create cars with enough universal appeal to ensure that they sell in high enough volumes to justify the high cost of developing them. Then there’s Spyker. Named to recall the innovative Dutch manufacturer that was active from 1898 to 1925, the modern Spyker company burst onto the scene in 2000 with a series of very extraordinary sports cars. Yes they were light and fast, but it was the stunning aesthetics of their cars that set them apart then and that impression has only grown with the passage of time since.

In this video, Derek Tam-Scott drives a C8 Spyder, answering some common questions in the process, ranging from “is it just an Audi R8 with a body kit?” to “what’s that shifter like to actually use?” Without revealing too much, the car is a wildly singular piece of motoring equipment, which is as different to drive as it is to look at from a conventional performance car.
