Have spoke to the dealer seems a decent fella, never driven one before but i am assuming (stupidly perhaps as one is 2 the other 4 wheel drive) they are similar to the Scuderia. Reading up on them they dont seem to get the applause the original car got but I do prefer the looks of the MK2 and the idea that the are pretty bomb proof, almost 2 years warrranty left is also appealing. I like the idea of the matt paint not so sure about the orange but that can always be wrapped black..
I am torn between this a 650S or 458 Spider,(am I turning into RamboLambo2) diverse I know.... thinking this may be more fun and perhaps better long term value??

Thanks for your thoughts..

Assume you spoke to Brent at Sevenoaks who is a good fella.

Really not sure the ET is worth the premium over a std Superlegera although they do look nice.

And another step back are they worth £50k ? more than a std LP car.

Yes it was Brent, pretty sure that that price is negotiable..

This is the thing I really know bugger all, other than there seems an awful lot of Special editions...I thought the MK2 only came as this or the Performante.. So in your opinion its perhaps not the best place to mark some cash, not looking for appreciation just some fun and not lose to much...
What about to drive is it a fair to compare it against the Scud in performance and ride?

No a few versions to say the least of the MK 2 (LP) cars
LP 550
LP 560
Superlegera (570 ?)
Edition Technica
And a few others that I cant remember, others will be along to give complete guide.
Regards value, who knows in this crazy market, but to my mind without looking 150 seems to close to Huracan money to me, albeit I am sure they are a fabulous car.

the ET in sl or pet guise was essentially a trim variant ... a special paint job (two tone for sl, the red with stripes for the PET), CCB's and the large carbon rear spoiler included in the price.....

if I were you, drive the 560-2 anniversario they have there as well as the sl ET.... you could save yourself 20k and get the better car.... http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/l...

better power:weight, same interior, more of a drivers car..... search for DBlue comparisons scud vs a 2wd Gallardo here on PH forums.....

?save 40k and but this.... http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/l...

Thanks for the replys guys, I think i can say that the SL is not for me.
I think after more pondering the Huracon or 650S is more what I am looking for.
