Hi there,

Love the 6.0 Diablo, amazing car and its really great that there are some many owners on Pistonheads.

Hope you will bring the car to some of the meets scheduled for this year.

Slightly off topic but can you please post some pics of your Vantage, one of my all time favourite cars.

Regards

Tim

Well done! Did you ever get my replies you asked for re buying from Amari?

My friend from Botley will be seriously miffed as he was about to buy that car too. It's stunning. He went to see it several times but didn't commit.
Fortune favours the brave!

Sure we'll meet somewhere this year at an event But don't come crying when I take my roadster top off and you can't anymore! I'll bring a chainsaw!

Fantastic! 6.0 Diablo is probably the favourite Lambo I've had the pleasure of driving (and photographing for that matter).....

Well picked her up today and, no fuel in it. salesman was rather embaressed. they filled it up with 2 cans of normal unleaded, the left check engine warning light was on. Drove excellent all the way back, amazing car. then a30 opened her up then backed off. then left cat warning light came on and shut the left side of the engine down, only just managed to get to the services and gave her some good fuel. still not running on all 12. let her cool down for half an hour but still the same. hmmmmmmm. here we go again!! anybody had the same happen
