Not badly mofied, fking awesome.

I'd have that in a hearbeat, and I don't even particularly like the 348.
What the juddering fk is up with those wheels man? Who thinks that looks even remotely good? It looks like Tess Holliday has sat on the roof and the suspension has collapsed.

What a random looking place to be selling it, "hmmm let's see, I fancy this Focus for £2.5k or maybe this Volvo for £2.7, no definitely the Astra for £2.3k, no wait...I'll take the Murcielago for £230k" rolleyes
blatantly the guy that owns the garage has decided he's going to take the opportunity to drive around in a lambo on the company credit line.

yea that's why i said it! It's hardly something they'll realistically retail out of. Bought trade, drive for a bit, not declare the BIK, sell it trade.

I think you mean. Bought as a Cat C, cheaply repaired, to be sold on to an unsuspecting punter and / or 'wide boy' drug dealer as soon as some mug with a bit of money turns up looking for a bargain.

I doubt they've got it cause he fancied a run in one.

They've got 24 Lamborghinis in stock. 6 of which are Aventadors, which I think would be more useful to pose in.

Ive had the misfortune of being in their multistory carpark full of cars. They all looked really nice, must easily be a few million of cars. I remember seeing a ford mustang with a £99999 price in the window.

Wouldnt personally buy anything though.

The 'Eleanor' GT500? Stunning car.

Like you I could never bring myself to buy anything from the dodgy fkers.

Actually went up to there twice looking at cars. Came across as sketchy when they weren't too happy showing me the documents for a 2010 golf. Turns out it'd had an engine replacement that they were trying to cover up..

Their stock is interesting and certainly draws people in but no thank you.

It's just perplexing. Like marrying a model then sanding off her her face and replacing it with a cartoon drawing of Arsène Wenger.

I don't like the car but when you say "This is an insult to everything Ferrari stands for.." that actually almost makes it good in my opinion.
The idea of Ferrari blowing its lid after seeing this car is fantastic. They'd probably send a cease and desist notice to the owner telling them to stop misrepresenting the Ferrari brand despite it being his car and him being able to do with it what he wants.
If it comes to that then keep it up I say, Ferrari can go do one.

I'm pretty certain this was owned (or at least driven by) someone who works at a small traders located on a farm just north of Bedford. I bought a Range Rover from them last year and while chatting to the young guy about cars, he was telling me he and his cousin both had Lamborghinis, and he showed me a pic of his on his phone. It looked bloody awful thanks to the hideous wrap (that changes colour, much like flip paint) and this looks remarkably like it. I guess it appeals to some and must look good parked up at big family weddings or religious gatherings, if you catch my drift. To see it end up in Keighley would make sense too.

The way he was chatting about it gave the impression he has had access to a few decent cars through the company. He actually seemed bored by it; certainly not gushing like I would be if I had one at my disposal.

I could be wrong though, in which case there are 2 equally vile Lambos on the road.

ETA: I've just checked their website and spookily enough, here it is for sale:
