I am in the process of importing a 2008 Gallardo SL from Italy but don't have the car in my grubby mitts yet. Has anyone got front pics of their Gallardo so I can see what to do about numberplates?
Thanks as usual.

Mine is a slightly cut down plate (in width) mounted on a plinth (available from Lamborghini).

That is correct. I have at last found a pic that I took in Italy (I knew I had it somewhere)biggrin and it looks straightforward inasmuch as the nose is not creased like an Aventador.

jeremyc will look forward to catching up when I final get the car here and registered.

Cheers

What happens if you don't have a front number plate?

I have seen some Aventadors driven without a front number plate.

A non-exhaustive survey of the Lamborghinis that went to Beaulieu yesterday reveals just over 60% without a front 'plate. biggrin
