Hi Chaps,

A friend of mine who is viewing this Gallardo tomorrow.

Any pro and con's ? I've never heard of David Myers Ltd. Are they good, reputable company ?

Thanks.

hi mate, has been on sale all summer, was prev at a price just below 90K....

well specced car, very little mileage since last service, owner lives overseas, yes i did enquire about it....

if you like the colour, spec is good, as is mileage/price.... colour is probably reason this car has not sold... though i did not go inspect it etc

70proof, thanks for your input. That is what I thought, about the colour. I think the black Gallardo is the best colour to buy.

Cheers

Yes, that is my opinion BUT I am not buying! I like orange as well, like yours. :-)

I think that's a lovely colour (I drive a Celica though )

i didn;t buy on account of colour, only spoke to the dealer once, he answered all my questions and was friendly enough.... funny at sharnbrook hotel there was a caelum blue g and my wife liked it very much!!! colour is an individual thing, if you mate likes it and the car checks out, the price is good... though has he seen the dark blue individual colour car elms have, now reduced to 75K....

Some of us buy Italian sports cars because we love driving and we derive no extra pleasure from being seen in a car that shouts "LOOK AT ME EVERYBODY. LOOK AT MEEEEEEEE."

Yes, I'm not knocking the bright colours. A luminous green Gallardo is a work of art - it just wouldn't be my first choice for a daily driver.

I'd personally go for a murci for that kind of money.

1. far, far rarer
2. will probably hold value better as rarer
3. v12 and faster
4. very exotic compared to a gallardo

obviously older and running costs more but i'd have thought the offset with lack of depreciation could keep it even.
