Diablo price increase?

[Rocco1]

Good morning all
Are we about to see an increase in value in the Diablo market when compared to other 90's classic cars that seem to have gone up in value
Have noticed a Diablo SV in the classifieds asking price £110k that must be a £20k more than the last one that was advertised
What are your thoughts?

Didnt see the one being sold by The Supercar Rooms (very nice)
Was speaking to a well known supercar dealer based in North West and his views on the Diablo's are that they will head the same way as the Countach did!

[Rocco1]

Good luck with the sale Mr ahoughton
Very nice car and the last of the pure bloodlines

Cheers, it's on SOR so I still might change my mind

I have one too and thought about selling mine,yet once i get behind the wheel and start the engine i realise how lucky i am to own such a car
My advice would be if you dont need to sell then dont
I have a 964t and a Scud and none come close to the Diablo,awesome machines
Good luck either way

Mr AHaughton's is looking a very good buy for someone now...

just seen this...

http://www.johnhollandsales.co.uk/lamborghini-diab...

not sure about the 1 of 8 - I think that's a reference to the 1999 fixed headlight models.

I am the owner of 1 of the apparent 8 cars, covered only 9000 miles what is it worth guys

Something more sensible I suppose , it would have to be wouldn't,t it lol

I have sensible cars 964t and a Scud but both are docile compared to the SV

Dummies will be spat

And the toys will follow shortly!!!

Ther weather has been kind of late
Wednesday i was out in the Porsche 964 3.3 turbo and loved it
Thursday i was out in the Scud and enjoyed it
Today Friday i was out in the SV not only did i enjoy it and love it but i was left mesmerised
The reaction you get from the onlookers is amazing they think its a spaceship
If only the other two got the same reaction!
When i stopped at the light one guy said "its a £ucking fighter plane for the road"
How often do you here that?

Hey Tony I know what you could replace it with if you can find one.

Let me have a guess
LP 670SV ??

Hmmm ! Go on Rocco post it on the Ferrai section and see what reception you get, be very interesting!

Perhaps my comments would not be taken too kindly on Ferrari section and i am in no postion to start a silly altercation
I too am a fan of Ferrari and Porsche otherwise would not have them in my garage
For me what i said is how i feel each to their own

Perhaps you were so mesmerised by the SV that you forgot you were trying to sell it a few months ago to buy a 458?
Must be good!

SV was parked up for the winter months and at times we make decisions without a thought
Thank God i didnt sell (for the record my SV has not actively been advertised)
you must live a very boring life and be insecure to instigate tension between other members!

As for buying a 458 i bought a 458 Spider back in November

sone said:

So I assume given your above comments you've been throwing your toys out of it ever since.

As far as tension goes your past efforts far out way anything Iive managed.

For instance http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

Jeeze anything for a quite life

I was the guy who bought the scuro car from Carlo.

I originally went to have a look at it in mid april but by the time i plucked up the courage to make an offer you were flying up to see it!

It's having a couple of bits from your inspection report sorted and is then going to get shipped down for Mike Pullen to give it a once over

Still can't quite believe i have done it...

Congratulations

Prices on the rise £20k in three weeks

Can only be good news for us owners!

This is getting most bizarre!

http://www.amarisupercars.com/detail?vid=102296

I think it was your car that set the price increase £20k in three weeks
It should have been priced at £130k from the offset
Awesome cars that are still way too cheap IMO

[Rocco1]

ahaughton said:

Well mine went up after the '97 at Slades was advertised at 109,995

And rightly so mate
Slades car is not the best of examples and at £110k
Your car is last of the real breed!!

Hmmm, anyone know if you can change an agreed value in a classic car policy part way through the insurance year?

Any chance of posting a pic of your Diablo please
