Ending with an LH and something else? That was at Hopetoun this year
DEf not the same car. The one at Hopetoun is a real Lambo. Spoke to the owner tonight who confirmed has not been in Wishaw. he believes this car is a very good replica with a very non lambo engine, possibly a Peugeot Diesel!

If we are wrong then please let us see the car

I saw it in Motherwell at the start of the year I'm sure. It wasn't L444MBO that I saw though.
I spotted that one on Sunday too. Someone needs to follow it and speak to the owner...

The one I saw was deffinitely a v12, heard it before I saw it. I'll be honest though, I'm not too clued up on lambs and I've not been around them much, so could very well have been a replica, but if it was, it was a very good one.

Are you meaning the more orange one, with the yellow-y stripes? Thats a genuine one. Thats from around that area I think.

no the one i am referring to is a yellow and no stripes. There is a yellow SV with decals in bothwell. That owner is the one who told me he had seen a yellow replica with a diesel engine in it!

Depending on the year and type there are various cluses inside as to what is real. The L444 reg doesnt come up as a car.

A v12 has a very distinctive noise which is quite uinlike a V8 etc

There's an (admittedly quite convincing, from a distance) yellow Diablo replica running on an old Rover V8 doing the rounds somewhere in Scotland. I was fortunate enough to have wee a nosey at it when it was getting serviced at the Dreadnaught a couple of years ago, possibly the same one? I have no idea who owns it or where it resides though, unfortunately.

I know that car and who owns it, we did a charity passenger rides thing at Alford a year or two back. the guy who owns it uses it and doesn't just store it for high days.

Spotted this in Aberdeen.



As well as a Gallardo, facelift Bentley Continental and Maserati GranTurismo all within a minute on Queens Road.

Also in Kintore, a 1970 Toyota Celica and Mercedes SL63 AMG.
Saw the truck earlier this week, thought it might be the Beverley Hill billys in town?
