any real life experience with regards to the reliability and maintenance costs of an aventador vs a murcielago would be appreciated

there appear to be quite a number of aventadors in lovely colours advertised currently , and it might just be that by waiting a year or two , that the depreciation curve might work favourably
hopefully, my pre-airbag ,red, manual 355 berlinetta, should not depreciate within that time frame, to quite the same extent

capital costs aside, reliability and the dreaded maintainance costs, also play a huge part in one's enjoyment of a toy , hence this thread

the aventador will of course lack the classic bizzarrini engine , but has that gorgeous interior

can't quite think of what else has the drama and excitement of these 2 cars for the price

f1ten: either a murcie or an aventador would be wonderful , but I tend to keep, so am happy to wait for the right thing to come along
you had/ have 2 of my favourite cars: the series 1 mx5 and the Heffernan & greenley continental R.

just got a second series 1 mx5 , 1990 1st of the long nose uk cars , with 28k miles , in absolutely concours condition for the price of a set of murcie tyres---hugely under-rated cars .Its going into beaulieu for photography later this month as their photographic library reference example

sone: nice to know that I am not alone in my thought processes
an aventador is definitely outside the budget just now , but with a bit of time and saving......
I, and i am sure others, would be keen to know how the reliability and maintainance costs play out as the months roll on
do keep us informed

resso : yes , got a murcie literally within feet of the garage doors, but sadly not into the garage itself !!
many a slip betwixt cup and lip etc, etc
on the positive side , this now opens up the possibility of keeping my 355 for some time longer, and looking at alternatives , and the aventador is the first to come to mind
And hence this thread
