Sensational collection at Bob Forstner
Discussion
Bob Forstner is a bit of a Lamborghini fan. Check out his museum in Stuttgart. He has many Lamborghinis including at least two Diablo SE30 Jotas, purple & yellow. I believe he used to have a green one as well. One of his favourite cars appears to be a yellow Countach 25 Anniversary. I think the cars on the museum link are just part of the collection as I've seen him on tv a couple of times and there were loads more cars including 350GT, 400GT, Jarama, Miura, LM002, Murcielago, Diablo SVR and Espada. A great collection.

that's an amazing collection!andy355 said:
is he german then? never heard of him or his company before the park lane garage
Yes Bob is German, I first heard of them at MPH09 where they first exhibited. He has a showroom based in Stuttgart with Bentley, Lamborghini, Pagani and a few more. He also has his Lambo collection mentioned above in Germany. To my knowledge he has been around for ages in Germany with his dealerships, and has since taken over the Park Lane showroom early last year.Buenos Aires Blue Zonda is fantastic
Those yellow ricer wheels on the Murci are crap
Prices on the website look high, I mean on what planet can a Versace LP640 be worth 500k?
Then again if someone turns up in London from the Middle East and pays that price, good luck to them

I agree that Zonda is absolutely stunning, but still £650k. The Versace is absurdly priced, which in principle its a normal £200k LP640 with a decal on the side and some new seats. It is a nice car, but not £500k's worth. In their defence that probably around what they bought it for back then.Prices on the website look high, I mean on what planet can a Versace LP640 be worth 500k?

And even though its a 2008 car Lambo have brought out 2 great V12's since, the still cheaper SV and the oncoming LP700-4 which will still be cheaper. Nevertheless like the Superleggera thread there is the option of exporting to HK etc. You never know really, you do get people who just have the money and will buy the car based on looks and the badge.

Heck of a collection!, he has the same Miura as me (albeit mine is alot smaller http://www.bobforstner.com/lamborghini-museum.htm
)
Bob is a great guy, a proper enthusiast. He also has a showroom in the USA, not just Germany. They have sold quite a few cars, but often these do not appear in the showroom. There is also a seperate store room they keep cars in. It tends to be the "headline" cars in the public showroom. Also I think the prices are high, but as with all cars similar to these values it's more a POA, I would highly suspect that they would be willing to negotiate.
