Any more pics of that lovely Clio that's reflected off your door mirror? - Judging by the colour, it's possible that it could be a Dynamic Billabong.

Very very nice motor, just out of curiosity, on the odd occasion you may want to put the roof on, how does it work?
Have only ever seen pictures of these with a roof on or the roof off so have no idea, is it a comedy arrangement of sticks and a bit of tarpaulin kept in the garage? or is it stashed away somewhere on the vehicle?

Nice car fella, love the interior, one of the best colour combinations I've seen. These things sound amazing, if I were you I'd keep it as it is for a few months, then when you get used to it, fit a some induction goodies & some pipes!

Have you got a G-Shock to match it?

Not a massive fan of the kick plates, but they're better than the standard ones on mine. Congratulations, or Mabrook as we say in the Middle East!

You just press a button and it goes up or down.You are probably thinking of the Murcie roadster.

Baby Lambo... couldn't you afford a proper one.... biggrin

Seriously though, lovely car and the write ups seem to back that view up. I admire you for having it as I would be scared to use it with all the idiots on the roads and carparks, would need to set up a cordon of cones to protect it everytime I stopped if I had it!

Hi,

I really like these. I think the only thing I would do is when I get bored of black is to wrap it in orange for a while until I got bored of that. Lovely! Great car!

Enjoy it - I suppose it is an alright stop-gap car until you get a proper Lamborghini. wink

It would not be a Billabong as the colour was only limited to silver and black. It might be just the 1.2 Dynamique. A clio is a clio, what really took my attention was the Ford Mondeo 1.8 Verona. Is that a Mondeo without some sort of tape around the bumper? If so, that is rarer than some Audi cabrio that takes up the majority of the photo.

Gallardo Spyder LP560...probably the best lamborghini for the real world ever...

very nice indeed...

always loved the Lp 560 since the EVO issue when it went up against the 997GT2. I remember thinking then (2008) that if I ever won a fortune, that would be the super car I would own...not much apart from the arrival of the Ferrari 458 and McLaren Mp4-12C has changed that!! I seem to recall The LP560 was a smidgeon faster around the Bedford autodrome, not bad considering the GT2 was porsche's top nurburgring lap timer of its day!!

I'll get me coat now.

There has never been a chinese takeaway in this car! (I get them delivered!)

G-shocks, yes, takeaways no!

Very nice OP, I give you 9/10. Kudos for going for the spyder - I can only imagine what this sounds like a full chat, thats what it's all about.

I marked you down one point because of the black paint - a lambo should really be puke green or bell end purple. It's a lambo, is not meant to be stealthy or subtle!

I really think these "final" Gallardos, along with the Balboni will become a future classic Lambo.

These just get better looking all the time. Not a big fan of black wheels but I think it works on this little supercar. Makes it look very mean.

The only criticism I have is the quilted leather, lovely colour scheme but the the quilting always makes me think of a those Barbour jackets every chavette was wearing a couple of years ago.

Sorry.

I am very jealous though, ticks every other box for me smile

As lovely as GTRs are, they will NEVER be in the same league as something like this.

Pure porn, excellent work that man, enjoy it!!!

As for the (not terribly subtle) dig at a certain touchy builder - good work laugh

My comment on his thread was along the lines of - and i paraphrase "lovely car. but i, like others on here can't see the value in spending 10 large on a slightly different shade of black on black but i'm sure when you have finished it will be as stunning as your supra"

It got deleted and i was sent an email accusing me of being a troll.........

just how thin is the bloke's skin.

But just so i don't get banned for not being effusive enough about your car, i love it unreservedly, wouldn't change a thing on it and am insanely jealous, bravo!!!!
