Morning,
Just introducing myself to this forum as I have taken the plunge and take delivery of an 07 plate gallardo spyder tomorrow.
She is in Balloon white with black leather with yellow stitching and has covered 3500 from new.
Look forward to a meet sometime to learn more.

Tony.

wavey Welcome to the (white!?!?!?!) DARK SIDE Tony...

Good luck with picking up your car tomorrow - plus a real big thumbs up to you if you can make your first drive as the owner with the roof down in early January! thumbup

There are a number of Gallardo owners here on Pistonheads, some with Spyders... you'll certainly not be alone or wanting for support I'm sure! driving

I'll fulfill my 'contractual obligation' now (?) and suggest you join the UK's only Lamborghini club as well - whilst we have quite a few Gallardo owners in the Club we aren't entirely swamped with them - at least not yet!

woohoo

actually to bring some balance to this..

supercars? Pah!

and a droptop one as well?

what on earth possesed you in the current financial crisis?


i suppose you think you're going to have fun driving around and meeting up with like minded people?
talking about the nuances of your particular model and such like? **


well, let me tell you, you're going to wish you'd never bought the car.
just imagine...getting up in the morning.. a choice of cars to drive...the beater or the Lambo hmmmm

that poor car thats served you well for years is now going to be lonely and unloved...
how could you?

you're going to be told time and agaqin by those who 'may' be jealous that the value will fall out of bed if you drive it.
and fall out of bed if you dont



** this might actually happen wink

congrats sir....i salute your choice.
drive it with the roof down at every opportunity!
where are the pics?
