Spotted - Black Diablo, A1 North Newark

[Gompo]

Anyone on here or know it? I was travelling south so didnt get a good look at all, but I am sure this is what I saw. I think it's only the second Diablo I've seen out on the road!

Well it wasn't me, Ianqv, Evil Dr Fish, Diablo Pete or Ade/Lou 'cos none of our Diablos are black, so that narrows it down by 5 for you!

...and it wasn't me cause i don't have a diablo

[slartibartfast]

I think someone on the newark industrial estate has one, could be wrong though

[Gompo]

I saw it just after the Balderton junction, the one before the Newark industrial estate one if you are travelling northbound. Looked like it may have just joined the A1 but couldnt be sure. It was around 7.40 am.

..Good on ya for who using it whoever it was. I know many Lamborghini owners do get out and drive but I've not seen many supercars on the road at 7.40am!

Cheers, Greg.

I seem to remember a thread last year, from a guy who had found a scabby black diablo in some outbuilding. He then restored it and posted some progress pics on here.
Could it be that one?

As I've said, I didnt get a good look at the car - but to be honest something looked a bit different to what I had in my head as a Diablo if you know what I mean. I saw it from a slightly elevated position (7.5t truck) which probably didnt help. It could have had something different about the body, either extra bits as if it had a slight bodykit or maybe it was even a replica?

Anyway, I am sure the other Diablo I saw on the roads a year or so back was genuine!

Think that one was in Wales.

Anyway, it could be one of a number. Was it a 6.0, SE30, VT, 2WD, SV, GT, GTR etc etc?

Spoiler?
Pop up headlights?
Four exhausts?
