I once had a mate who had a 911 flatnose replica.
It was bl__dy horrible. It leaked water, smelt, and broke down on a regular basis.


Anyone thinking these are an impressive substitute are sadly mistaken.

Erm, actually, if it was a decent looking replica with a decent engine, going on experiences of friends, I think I'd rather have the replica!!!!

Ha ha! The 355 is a shape that just cannot be re-created because it is far too beautiful.

The only thing I was getting at was that they're a dog to drive with the gearbox and clutch, maybe the later Diablos are ok. Bleedin fast as fook though!!!

Touch wood ive never really had any probs with the roadster and found it quite easy to drive, however now i have a six litre the roadster does seem very diferent, but the gearbox is easier to use on the roadster. never had a 355 what is she like.

P.s I was only joking!!!!

Thats good to know then, I have known 2 people with earlier (pop up lights) Diablos and they basically spent about the same amount of time in the garage as on the road.

The 355 is actually really easy to drive. I test drove a 348 and it was totally different. Similar, but in a way as though your power steering had failed and if the gearbox and clutch had never been lubricated in comparison.

How often do you use the Lambo? Do you struggle with the shear size of the thing?

The picture of the front made me laugh. It looks like metal mickey after a pub punch up.
