http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAMBORGHINI-DIABLO-ROADS...

Was just wondering as it's priced quite low for a roadster , has anyone viewed the car recently ? . I'm not so keen on the grey but has the car got other issues ? It's been up for sale for sometime now and I'm quite surprised it hasn't shifted .

The colour isn't the best for a Lamborghini. In fact it's the worst!

Agreed , however a wrap could sort that out and you'd have a decent looking roadster for over 10k less than market value . Was wondering if something else might be not quite right with the car . Isn't there an Irish roadster going around that has been made from 2 cars ?

I don't know much about these apart from having a poster on my wall as a kid.
Then on Sunday an orange one turned up on the lakes road rally and I though wow.
All I can add is I Love this and the colour ain't bad either. As someone said it can be wrapped in vere ithica and would look the muts nuts

This car was for sale some time ago and also using the same images. I think I am right in saying that at the time it was listed as being in New Zealand.....

No real pattern to it. I had a 2001 6.0 Diablo at the same time my friend had his.

Both UK cars, his was in kph and mine was in Mph

hehe his buying record looks like he spends more on tax disc holders and air freshener etc,
than anything else, he could start a car boot style Halfrauds.

The add text is very bizarre in places, that would make me a bit suspicious. It's not just a case of being quirky either, if I was in the market for this type of car it would make me approach with great caution, and for some people that means better to not approach at all.

Don't think the colour can contribute so significantly to lowering of the price, some people would no doubt prefer the grey as let's face it a lamborghini is pretty much the ultimate head turner, it doesn't need loud colours to attract attention, it probably gets more attention than you want or need even in this colour.

I dunno , the text is rather bizarre , I emailed the guy in the past as this has been up for sale for quite some time , he seems to just point out the fact all the time that these cars cost x amount to run a year which kind of puts me off anyhow as anyone buying would have some idea of how much these cars cost to run ( maybe he didn't ? ) , he also comes across as not knowing too much about these cars in general . If it's straight up and all good then this is kind of a bargain going on current asking prices for roadsters , as someone pointed out already , wrap it in crack head green or orange and you'd have a good looking car and maybe an appreciating asset . Caution being the word of the day as always when buying cars of this nature .

LOL

Whoever is selling this has built up a good feedback score as a buyer but buying things that cost pennies. Pretty old scam on ebay. When you switch to his feedback as a seller, errrrr, there isn`t one.
