Hey guys!

Recently hired a lp-560 for the weekend for my sisters wedding, so i might be able to comment on this

First of all if money is no object go for it, always good to try new cars in your life and a lambo is definitely an experience! I was the biggest kid for the weekend!!! seriously the noise and auto blip on downshift just never failed to put a smile on my face!!! i found myself downshifting all the time just for the fun of it The speed up to 100 wasn't a lot more than my noble, after 100 it flew! The brakes were awful in it!!! I mean awful!! No feel!! no bit!! not good!! The car only had 6k on the clock so pretty much new!!! It didn't handle very well either!!! very heavy and the back end was alive dispute being 4wd!! interior quality wasn't great surprisingly!! Switches were loose and the bits were already broken. Gearbox was great!!! The paddle change was nice and in sports super violent!!!! proper jerked and snapped your neck!!! LOVED THAT!!!

Used loads of fuel over 200 miles over the weekend, worth every penny though!! It cost me 8-900 a day to hire and a 3k deposit! a lot of money but for the experience was great!!!!!

Biggest flaw with the lambo was at HIGH speed, when you lift off the power at the end of a straight the front end was very strange, almost like it was floating off the road, was hard to keep in a straight line. Weird feeling with this!! Even the passenger could feel it. :/

When it was time to hand her back i drove the m12 straight away for a comparison and was shocked at just how good the old noble was in comparison!!!!! first time i used the brakes i found myself doing an emergency stop, they were so good!!!, handling was a different league too!!!! I have yet to find something that feels like a noble to drive!!! My car 10 year s old with 22k on the clock, cannot fault it!!!!!!

Heres a few pics! plenty more if you want more overall though the lambo was a great experience!!!! The noise was insane, same sort of smile my old integra put on my face when vtec-ing! ,........but is it worth that much more than a noble...........No. Rent one for the weekend and see if you like it! If you feel like a change go for it, but if you like to feel part of the driving experience (probably the best way to put it) then don't.

Hope this helps!

Noble is also like a Surgeons scalpel and actually feels quite like the F430 on the road.Noble just misses the Soul and Sound of the F430 plus the F1 box with auto blip on the down shift. Even with my Roush exhaust I find Tge Noble just a little quiet compared to the F430 but if your looking at the difference in money the the Noble is the best bang for your £'s

Found this
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zxOMgmBUWVQ. 3rd car past don't sound non to shabby

I was looking at buying a Lambo 2 years ago, yep and selling the Nob, as was getting frustrated that it was never working,
So I swapped cars with my mate who has a Murcilago Lp640. It had been tweaked to 670, it was mine for the week end, I took the car on a fri, was nervous of leaving my Noble with him stupidly as knowing he has more money than sence, and would give it back to me in bits and say don't worry geezer ill buy you another one, where am I gonna found one,
anyway drove out his drive and through ongar in Essex and pretty much tore the arse out of it the min I was out of view, hense the phone call to remind me who was about to drive my noble as he heard me all the way up the road,
It sounded crazy and was really comfy and easy to drive, it was fast very fast but lacked the urgency of my Noble which had 550 bhp at that time, but more importantly felt a lot more cumbersome , dare I say big and heavy,
But what done it for me was on Sat night in the west end driving through Leister sq every taking pics, so parked up in a good spot close to my mates restaurant, return to the car and there was gob on the windows and someone had smeared a kebab over the bonnet I was embarrassed to get in, the Noble for me does what it says on the tin and people never find it or me flash, the Lamborghini on the other hand made me feel, sorry lambo owners but like a flash wolly or should I say everyone else thought I was. So me I spent it on my Nob.
