Looks fantastic, I can't believe how much difference the wheels make.

DAMN she is looking SERIOUSLY hot !

I think I'd have my one like that or in Orange or Green but I think I want the SL so not sure what colours they come in.
Lovely.
I hope you have a garage though ?
And to be honest, lets get a better location to show it off biggrin

M Ferguson <--- I bought when I was 20 and it was all I could afford. Plus my surname is a little difficult to immortalise in a 5 character plate smile

Very nice, Mr F. smile

Who did the tint for you? As I'm local to you I wouldn't mind getting it done as well.

Those new wheels are a fantastic match for the car, beautiful!

How are you finding the MPS over the (assumed) Pirellis?

They are very very good, apparently they will last around 20% longer than Pirelli's. They are very sticky they feel more sticky than the pirelli but that may be because they are new.

Plus the pirellis are a real pain to get a hold of.

I know of a couple of G owners that have gone to Continental Sport 2s as getting the Pirellis have been so difficult (one being Dell from here) and both have said pretty much the same thing, worse in nearly every respect ( http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyres_For/Lamborghini... )

If you're running on the original MPS (not the asymmetric) the grip of the rubber is quite linear until the last 1/4 of the tread where it hardens up quite noticeably. Fantastic all round tyre though, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Very nice out of interest what does the upgraded ECU do and what floor mats you got?

ECU upgrade is supposed to give the car more HP / Torque.

Next week I will have time to dyno my car to show how much extra Hp my car is putting out with the ECU and exhaust and I shall post the figures smile

As for the mats I can't show you them until I get them, but will post them as soon as I get them. But basically they have the bull and lamborghini text embroided in them as well as a silver boarder.
