There I was just having a stroll around Lancaster trying to get to know the place (just moved here for uni), assuming I'd see no one I knew so was looking scruffy as . Next thing I know a bright yellow Murci on an LP07 plate comes towards me. I go like this -> yikes Take a quick photo on my phone, only to find the Lambo stops right next to me as the traffic lights have changed.

I think at this point I mumbled something about "oh my god your car is awesome", then asked if the driver was on here, I think he said yes, I don't really remember I was too busy staring at the car and still had a facial expression somewhere along the lines of yikes

So apologies to the driver if he is on here, I don't normally look that scruffy or talk to random people in the street and I'm not actually insane hehe Your car does however look unbelievably awesome!

the Murciélago driver said he was fine with you taking the pic - just don't go imagining that seeing a 640 is an everyday occurence in Lancaster!


So, are you posting it here then or wot???

I grew up not far from Lancaster and can say you will not see much exotica up there so enjoy the v.special experience of spotting the 640 as it may not happen again for a while.

Stupid me, its not an LP07 plate rolleyes Got too excited hehe

And actually I've seen a few nice cars, loads of 911's, AMV8, new Jag XK and one or two other interesting cars.

Was there last night, am supposed to be in a talk thingy at 9.35 this morning however I currently feel very rough... hehe Uni's ok so far, everyone in Lancaster seems very friendly and stuff, met loads of people (remember very few names...) and got myself a decent place - couldnt get on campus accomodation so I'm in CityBlock 2 smile Expensive but worth it I reckon, was great last night just being able to walk home in 2 mins!!!
