any owners here? are they as good as the reviews on youtube say they are? anyone have any experience of other variants prior to tecnica ownership.

still got my lp560-2 anniversario, that is a keeper. she just been serviced at lambo hatfield, what a set-up there by hr owen. also mac around the corner.

been watching the videos of the tecnica and guys i respect seem to really rate it. tempted as i think next baby lambo will be v8 turbo hybrid not v10

how many out there, anyone notice how many at the silverstone lamborghini day?

Best colour for the gallardo, sweet ride

Don't like verdi mantis on the huracan, more options now order books closing and a lot more citrus cars selling huracan vs gallardo

IMHO its the last, best and rarest derivative so the one to have
Thanks, every review says the same, best mix... Rwd, 640bhp, direct steering, an sto for the road... A sto touring in essence... First time for any lambo every journo is singing from the same hymn sheet

Thanks so much for your insight... My neighbour loves his 765lt but says its sensory overload, good to hear you compare the steering favourably as usually that is a lambo weak point...

Speccing mine this am..

Though sarnie picture upload had got me thinking, again....

Was really hard not to go citrus, indeed match my car

Hoping the factory carbon rear spoiler is an option by the time of my build slot, do think the huracan looks better in a darker, colour despite my bias and really wanted the carbon bits so hence the darker colour... YouTube vids helped to, schmee and motoman drove Blu demos

I really like the rear hood of the technica, was a major draw for me to getting a huracan at all, totally agree the performante, evo and sto models look much better than the first gen models

Gutted the tecnica does not have ALA though, now that would have made it imho

would never have chosen blue for the gallardo but a friend got a speciale in deep blue and i liked that, only considered it for the tecnica after watching youtube.... am tempted to get the roof carbon ppf'd and the blue bits matt/satin ppf

am trying to get as many carbon bits on the outside but haven't gone silly on the inside, we agree on the best wheels for the car.... dont like the launch wheels tbh

no stripes for me, esp with the carbon front bonnet

i hear that the huracan replacement will get the V8 turbo hybrid that is about to launch in the urus. a group engine makes sense given r8 is being killed off and is only other car using a v10, shame the v10 will be no more, has been such an epic engine since 2003

Maybe it is the showroom lighting but too green for verdi scandal or citrea

all the cars sold on the market have gone for overs and ive been watching since april, spoken to romans and the amari car this weekend was sold at overs and not at advertised price, that was to draw buyers in who were then invited to bid... not 40k overs tbh

the 50th anniversary gallardo was opportune, the main edition to mark the 50th was meant to be the avantador, and it came with mag alloys off the gen 1 superleg, 10 extra HP over rwd, spoiler and alcantara/buckets from the superleggera... the 60th huracan, the only true anniversary edition this year, is a car with options off the brochure, no mechanical mods and a plaque/60th markings to make it unique- 4 uk tecnicas from 60 worldwide, all sold easily for 352!!!!

stig, if you got one offered for unders, then it was a cancelled order, as the dealer wouldn't care as the contract allows them to deduct the loss from the original deposit so not be out of pocket

enough price talk.... lovely car x-box, now whats the exhaust mod, is it like the gallardo- clamp a tube, and why do you love it....

lovely specs guys, congrats to you all.. how the days have moved on from the gallardo days in terms of personalisation. they do look good in every colour.

sarnie thanks for many a sleepless night but decided to stick with a blue car!!

did a mini bull run with lambo hatfield and 2 tecnicas a couple of weeks ago and even in town they sounded great, what a convoy that was.. defo sounded louder than perfs at lower speeds, they liked my gallardo too. smile

anyone got a good feel of the car now driving wise

nice position to be in.... sure your son will be thinking one for me lol

yes, any slots coming up will be cancellation slots, if you lucky it will be before the spec is fixed. contract allows dealer to sell it for under list and keep the difference from your depo

Lovely to hear that smile
Lambos don't have to be leary! And I reckon the contrast between the matte titanium paint and black gloss trim is schmeck smile But then I would say that...
Congrats, nice spec

Interesting recent vid, real world weight test and the tecnica and sto are more or less identical
