Personally would be very wary and even steer clear if not been serviced regularly. Begs question why.
Probably explains price somewhat as quite reasonable but not seen condition so hard to say.
If it is at 15K miles then it's due a more major service so need to allow for that.
Don't understand these people who don't service them. I mean it's only £500 or so for an annual so surely can't be a cost issue as it's not more than an average saloon to service.

i don;t understand it either.... footballers are hardly short of cash and pav would have owned it for the middle bit, one would assume he'd just get it serviced.... but then they probably don't care about their cars or aabout depreciation that will result from a poor service history...or even engine failure....it's last service was a major one, got that out of lambo manchester, but not much else...

Great thread, and loads of info, I'm currently on the hunt, but will probably go for a 2004/2005. Keep the advice coming please.

hi scott.Scott
have you seen this one.... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2884167.htm
2004 cars with half the mileage are selling for 69K, and if the specialist who has serviced it is this mike pullens, you cannot go wrong.... not many 2004 out there with e gear and clear engine covers....
colour might not tickle ur fancy, but for this price, buy it and get it wrapped......

does look nice, and has full lambo history.....
but there have been 04 cars sold for 69 with only 10k on the clock.... zero one had one and i saw it... http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2827546.htm it was like new....so you may wanna haggle on the price given the mileage.....if you can do without a 3 month warranty, could you go to the seller direct and save some notes.... as its on sor.
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2855649.htm this car was this car http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2803406.htm and when i called the private seller, he said the discs and pads needed doing, so check the dealer has doen this, else you need to budget for that!

hi mate,
pm me a price, though i do have to say i have become smitten by the clear engive covers that you can get on a coupe.....can you get them on a spyder?
i have never been a vert person.... i know the sounds are so much better with the roof down, but i would hate the attention in traffic....

hi dude
thanks for the feedback... glad u finally got to drive her, shame about the weather though! having said that, the heavy rain is a quick way to wash the cars rather than risk the local hand car wash and their one mitt for all!!!
glad to hear you like the e-gear
think i will go for an 06 anyways, though it sounds there is not much between them and a low mileage 04/05, just waiting for the right car at the mo.... a long week has become a long fortnight, but there do seem a lot of cars coming online....

Be carefull of an early 04 53 plate yellow gallardo manual, my old car , gezza that bought it knocked all the corners off it and wasn`t insured, it got put back on the road with HPI clear ! after Lambo manchester quoted £90k to fix it.
is it in the classifieds at present? (for those looking for an 04)would you stick with titanium cassiepia alloys or would you get apollo wheels.....with yellow calipers
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2460544.htm or

b********cks, back to square one.....sale fell through as seller values his car on another planet!!! and pulled out of the deal on the table....
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2935391.htm
if anyone is interested, please note a major service is months overdue, 1000 miles or not!!
thanks lambobrum for all your hard work...
and if anyone is after a cheap 06 spec car and can live with this interior..... wtf!!

What has been seen, cannot be unseen
they have this thing called bmw individual.... you pick whatever colour you like etc.... guaranteed to reduce not enhance the value of the car.... once saw a dark purple m5 with bright yellow interior... almost a match for this gallardo!

1st one is somewhat high price given it's low spec from what I can see. Didn't most cars of that age have Callistos?
so am guess it probably doesn't have much else. lifting gear, branding pack and so on.
not as low a spec as one vvus have.... yep, no lifting gear, branding pack etc.....so am guess it probably doesn't have much else. lifting gear, branding pack and so on.
thats why i had negotiated to swap the wheels for apollo wheels....
seller reckons 83 is fair price for car sold as seen via private purchase (ps still on finance)!!! i offered 83 for car serviced (overdue major one) and warrantied for 1yr.....lets see if it sells...
LamboBrum said:
I can't sell mine that quickly!
lol, not through want or trying!i think he's got a lot of overseas contacts... a lot of his cars go out east...
where does he get all of these well looked after cars from.... the blue one he's got has had a service almost every 800 miles.... someone should remind jt it;s an annual service, not mileage based...
guys what do you think of this one in terms of price.....
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2949152.htm
spec is a bit basic, so i could negiotiate on price....
