Moving on from the kit car Diablo,

Lee, have you seen this LHD SV

I thought the 1997 SV had 510 hp and not 530hp

Probably usual dealer mistake lol

I wouldn't be a fan of the "attempt" to add the SE30 style side grills, to the sills, just looks awful. Interior color I do like, thinking of doing something like that on my own car.

Hi folks. Yes I did notice the yellow left hooker but ideally I want a RHD car.

Hopefully now with winter approaching fast, a couple may come available...

Have to agree, been down the LHD route before and didn't like it, the bigger the car the more awkward it is too lol.

Hi John,
I was just reading this topic again and I think I missed your post - my apologies.

The 1997 car I saw was the one recently sold at top gear specialist cars

The brown SV on ebay is a replica. The engine gives it's away, it's a BMW V12 but it's had 'lamborghini' etched on to it. It's a good fake but i'd find it hard to believe that anyone would not spot it when they arrived to collect it!

Well someone is in for a shock then when they pitch up to pay just over £56k for it which is the current bid price...

The brown one..I've seen a copy of the v5...it states its a Lamborghini...well either I'll be kicking myself in two years when they are 120K...or not!....probably the worst advert for a lambo for sale I've seen, unless you can beat it.

What a scam! in picture 2 the car has twin central exhaust pipes and in picture 3 there are quad pipes
and the bidding is highly suspicious - how can that be allowed ? bandit

Is it a 99/2005 or 2008 car? What an appalling ad!

It is 100% a replica!! A friend of mine went to see it under the impression of it being real.He knows Lambos inside out and has owned many over the years.The owner wanted to have a deal with a Bentley he currently has.He did say to me someone is going to get tucked up with that if they are not careful.The log book does say Lamborgini,the engine is a BMW V12.Buyer Bewareeek!!!!!!
