Got the beasties back together so here are a few pics of them! I was thinking they could start mating and possibly make a Gallrado? ( Robin will that work?)

Oh yes, more photos would be great please!

What a stunning pair of cars, but in such individual ways!

It also shows very well just how low the Espada is for a four seater!

Thanks for sharing.

What a gorgeous pair!
I personally would lose the Northern Ireland plate on the Countach though.

When I was about 12, that scenario would have been my ultimate fantasy. Even now, looking at them together, I envy you. Thats an awesome pair of cars to own. Now all you need is a Urracco to make the perfect threesome smile

Hi thanks for the posts and will put some more pics on. The NI plate was the original as put on by the late Sir Fred Fraser the housebuilder, who originally owned the car. AS has always been with it I would be reluctant to change the plate. Perhps it wil bring me some good firtune like he had!!

Ive always meant to ask you about the plate. Original eh, nothing to stop you putting it on retention although it would need to be replaced with something good smile

When we next out?

... will see you there again then Paul ... we have the same parking area as last year and with no BBC twunts causing mass-confusion for the marshalls this year either, there might be a degree of coordinated location placement for the Lamborghinis that arrive ...

Matt, I am well. Hope you've got used to the VT.

The run on Sunday was great with 3 x L (Diablo SV, Roadster, QV) and 2 x F (F430, 360 CS) cars. Good weather, scenery, pace, food and company. A fantastic day.

The SV's response has improved significantly since the throttle pedal weight was adjusted. The 2nd and 3rd gears on country roads are great. Instant power and so controllable.

Great stuff, thanx.

I love the Espada:


. . . and the Countach:


Same owner. Espada is 1st owner, his dad. One of Europes best cars. The Countach is sold.

Oh my god! My two favourites lined side by side. Drove an Espada S3 when I was 18 thanks to a kind friend and have loved them ever since. magical shape.

A white Countach though trumps anything. Everything.
View from the rear is by far the best too in my opinion.

You are very lucky but thanks so much for sharing the snaps with us. If you have anymore you will hear no complaints from us if you put them up here.

Cheers
