I saw it when it was at Lamborghini London a few years ago. Personally I love the colour, but not the smoked rear lights.

ETA - I'm sure the owner posted on here some time ago.

I know the original owner of the car. He was proud that lambo london named it the worst kept murci. He used it on dirt track roads and I recall him saying the wheel arches were full of mud and the interior was along the same lines.

That was a long time ago and I am sure it has come good since.

Hmmm, can't guarantee it but there was a blue Murci for sale in a little village outside Harrogate that used it as a rental/hire car...I spotted it on eBay, and found a link to their site...

Redline is a few miles from said village, so I'm going to take a long shot and assume its now on SOR, but not actually on site as its not actually there...

Will try hunt the link down to see if it's the same one

ETA :Well, here's the link. A few things differing from the different photos, mainly the leather colour (could just be different cameras) but I'm guna say it's the same car...Mainly because it says it's 1 of 1 in that colour!

I've just bought a car from redline and the murci has been there the last few weeks.
Hire / rental car is not really in context as I think it's only been driven by the owner.
The colour is not for me though !

No. He was just the opposite of the fastidious owner type and was very proud of that. He paid for that in depreciation though.

Cheers. Don't think it will matter to much as the ad says its chaffeur driven. It is the same car though. Probably worth a look. Hopefully everything checks out on it as I love that colour.

Ah ok. My last lambo had fag packets in and other assorted crap constantly. So if I can do a deal then the car will feel right at home wink

Looks fantastic in that colour, possibly the nicest Murci I've seen.

I asked him about how he chose the colour. This is what he said:-

Because I painted the Williams F1 team trailers in real life and liked
the colour. PPG added the colour to their library so the factory could
paint it as a special colour and paid the extra 3 or 4 K to have it
painted the colour I wanted.

Popped in today, turns out it is there hiding at the back..

Looks good, black leather rather than the blue it states somewhere, not sure if it's dyed but it looked alright

The previous owner of this car is definitely on PH, I remember him posting on here in reference to this car on a few occasions.

Mmm, also love the colour. Out of interest, what makes the price "right"? It's the most expensive non-LP on the market; I thought it seems too expensive.

I'd not pay more than about 85k for that so its a non starter. Top Gear (the Lambo) specialists seem a lot more realistic when it come to Murcie prices. Just look at how long most of them have been advertised.
Dion has had his ages, Maltons have had that white for ages. Even Carlo at Top Gear has had the sky blue one for a time. You've got to buy it right and as you posted this one up I'd say it's too punchy by about 15k if not more. Just going on what other cars have sold for lately.
Great cars though. Deliberating on buying Dions one still. Back from holiday in two weeks, will go and see it then.
All that said, to me it's more important that it's the right car as opposed to the right money. But there is a point at which that changes back the other way.

Haven't really had time to investigate murice prices and I know redline are usually a tad over the normal pricing on all their cars. Maybe it is a bit over priced but its a one off colour so maybe worth the preminum. I'll go have a look tomorrow.

I also don't want to turn my car search into a 70sProof type affair wink
