Where are all the good Gallardos?

[GT Two]

These cars are scarce!

Anyone know of a nice car? Ive opened my search to coupe or spyder, manual or egear but I am sensitive on colour.

Yellow, black, white, green, orange.

Would love to be in something ASAP, have been driving all day to see 2 cars and they are not for me.

Hoping January will see some cars come on the market….

what did you see ?

Malayasia.

Most of you will be aware of my recent search, I was fairly surprised at how quickly they appear to be selling currently especially bearing in mind the time of year, I earmarked a couple of cars and bid on them only to find they had sold.
Funny market in that early shape cars can be over LP models albeit some unsold.
The white spyder on autotrader looked a nice car if still around.

sounds like the search I did, had to settle on a different colour than I wanted though.
Thought I had my car sold on Saturday but the guy failed on finance so is still available.
Got the current dealer to reduce price to 70k as I need to shift before end of Jan, I also so see so many adverts up but the car is sold (I don't get why dealers do this)... apparently lots of them are going abroad!

A few thing to consider
1) time of year, best wait till after xmas/ny
2) a lot of the earlier Gallardos ie pre-lp have been exported to the far east, so low numbers available
3) there are a lot of ropey 04-08 out there that have been on the market for months/years and will be a money pit, make sure you get an inspection
4) may be worth upping your budget and going for a newer car or even an LP560

Thanks all, a lot I have looked at have missing history.

Perhaps a case of being patient….

I've just bought a car here.

Neil Vas was a pleasure to deal with.

May be worth a look ?

Have you been to see any Lamborghini dealerships?

It may be that they know of cars within their customer base that are about to become available (or could be persuaded to sell).

I have Jeremy, Sevenoaks very helpful but nothing imminent.

Have spoken to a few dealers and specialists now.

I have the feeling my budget is not quite where it should be, but there will always be something for a bit more...

Lee, I spoke to pangbourne for you but nothing currently doing there either.

Suggest you get a quote on a wrap

So nearly pushed the button on the 430 today but my 4 year old would be heartbroken!

What do you think of this?

That's one of the ones I mentioned last night I think.
Miles is nice, 07 is nice, new clutch, ceramics nice, normal black interior nice.
Seems at first impression ok if checks out ........ Another days travelling !!

What about the Tom Hartley car ...... 8k miles only, if true with one owner will be like new ! Ditto the yellow one at parkside ?

Agreed on white car.

Yellow one looks nice but I really want to hold out for an 07 model year.

Nice but over budget

Great colour and manual but an early car :/

How many owners the white one I wonder ?

The 2 you linked, first one has been for sale for a while and think someone said they have sold it a few times or it never sells, nice miles, bit pricey maybe.
Second been up for a while as you say and an early car but looks nice.

[GT Two]

I think 4 previous owners.

I have just read that there is only 12 Gallardo SE's in the UK, 250 is the worldwide allocation.

Is this a rare car? or just a parts special?

[TISPKJ]

You said you didn't want it this morning !
Have a looks at the specials thread, think Mohan said it was a forerunner for the 07 model year upgrades.

I recon you better get up the M40 in the morning

You out and about driving over xmas? pop in if you are.

[TISPKJ]

What in all that cold ... No chance

[TISPKJ]

White one with red pinstripe on wheels and maybe around front vents, can't decide what to do on the rear
