whos is the yellow SL?

I notice the Black Spyder has the slightly different seats (look at the headrest area) I've noticed this on a few cars but never figured out which cars they were fitted to as its doesn't look like a year thing

David_T if i'm not wrong is with the SL
Funny now that you've mentioned about the seats i can see that the headrest are different than mine.Maybe because is a later car?mine being a 2009

IMHO the SL1 is a very under appreciated and unknown about Gallardo edition, outside the Lamborghini community.

Possibly this is partly due to only somewhere around 25 UK versions (estimates from earlier posters - one of the Andrew SL1 owners will no doubt confirm or correct.) Many of the original ones (probably 12 - 15?) were then exported in the early years.

So if you can find a genuine RHD UK version where everything stacks up, get it while you can.

Is there any difference between SL and Performante? Or is just a year thing...

there was never a Pre LP Performante though

Same.

Superleggera currently with Lamborghini Chelmsford (recommended) but hopefully back soon (having a refresh ahead of the warmer weather...).

I’m there Friday dropping mine off to have parking sensors put on (I can’t drive very well).

I would be interested if it’s around London/Essex. It would be my first meet in the Lambo.

Same, fast road I'm fine, anything below 30mph and I'm an utter liability. You'll see mine - she's needed a load of parts - in my mind it probably looked like this at Lamborghini Chelmsford this week! biggrin

New rear tyres
New side mirror (something broke causing a wobble)
New LED strip in rear wing (one LED was intermittant)
Oil pipes (one has a small leak)
Handbrake fixed and a few other niggles

It's recently had the alloys done, new front tyres and brakes (clutch is fine) so it's going to be in great shape. Still loving this car.

Are there any Gallardo/Lambo meets planned before winter? I would love to see some of the cars in the flesh.
