I think car may fit the spec you are looking for.

Saw that on Sunday and called. Waiting news from my finance bloke now on quote and hoping to go Friday if still available.

Thank you for the link though!

Also a white BiColare is on, which funnily enough was sold by Premier GT last week and listed 3k below what it is now!

Few options there though.

What about a LHD car? 62 plate. LP-570

I would only consider a RHD solely down to personal preference.

Hi guys

Vergis - thanks for the comment but I've now purchased!

Everyone else - as above, I am now a Lamborghini owner! Subject to collection this Friday. Deposit all paid on the orange one listed at Premier GT and linked above!

More than excited for Friday!

Congrats on the car! Good to see that the demand is still there for this cars.

I've watched 4 priced at 95-100k since October and all sold within 10 days of listing.

Have you tried to enquire about the orange one listed at 89k? Seems like a bargain

I did actually call the bloke he's located in Scotland. It's not for me to say but I wasn't completely sold on the motor for various reasons and throw in the private sale/warranty etc I would rather pay the extra 10k for peace of mind at this price point.

Very much looking forward to Friday..3.5hr drive home!

Motor will be left on the drive at night.

Does anyone know of any good car covers to use or would recommend?

The problem with outdoor car covers is that you need to make sure the car is spotless before you put them on or you'll scratch the paintwork to pieces.

That's a lot of effort if you intend to use the car regularly, therefore I personally wouldn't recommend using one.

Have just read all that online myself whilst looking in them. Probably better off without!

I'll see how I get on. Thanks

Bit more help please!

Looking at getting a front & rear dash cam installed which also records when ignition is off (whole point of it for me) possibly motion sensor'd or similar.

Any recommendations on A. which cam? B. places to install (im useless)

Thanks

So how is the car?

As incredible as I dreamed! I love it, taking some getting used to with the looks/phones etc but I've done 350 miles this weekend including the 200 mile drive home and my eGear/neutral skills are getting there. Had the occasional moment where I thought I'd flicked to 1st and was in N and a little rev - bit embarrassing/flashy but what a beautiful car. That cold start is to die for.

Heres a pic from collection I'll get more when it's been valeted this Sunday.

Lovely. The Gallardo still looks very current, and a great colour.

I've had several people more familiar with the Huracan comment they prefer the look of 'this one' without knowing the model etc.
