Dear All,

I would be thrilled to organise some form of informal open day for you all to come and see the place. Any Saturday would be good, I just feel that as I am new to this forum, someone more senior should post the idea of when, as they will have more knowledge of how to get better coverage.

But really, any Saturday is fine, I just need to know rough numbers, and I'll organise the rest.

I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible.

Cheers,

Alan.

I am not that senior and a mere 996 Carrera boy, but dammit I'd be happy to organise.

So drop me a mail.

As for numbers, I'd prepare to be invaded if I were you

Dear All,

Just thought I'd let you know that I have been in contact with Petrolted, and that he is looking at how best to advertise a Pistonheads gathering at Lamborghini Wycombe.

As soon as I know, you'll all know.

I am looking forward to it.

Alan.

Woohoo! Sounds like a good meeting

Other than a drive of a Gallardo earlier this year, I've not been up close to any Lambo's since a friend got rid of his Diablo SV (I think I miss it more than he does!!). I once picked him up from Lamborghini Reading when the car was in for a service. Jason (Barker) showed us around the service area. OMG, I thought I'd died and gone to supercar heaven.

Happy days

If I get through a day and treat my customers with the respect and enthusiasm that Jason Barker used to treat me with, then I have had a good day.

Jason was brilliant, and the Lamborghini world needs people like him.

This place is certainly Supercar heaven right now, with nearly 15 Lamborghinis downstairs, and a Carrera GT, EB110 SS Dauer, and a XJ220.

Beats working for a living!

Alan.

Talking of blasts in a Murcielago, there is a big Lamborghini gathering in Ashford, Kent, tomorrow, so the M25-M20 should see a fair few Lambos going down there.

It is the Lamborghini Club's car of the year show.

I'm going in convoy with a couple of Gallardos, and I'm taking a stunning Black on cream Murcielago. If you see me between 10-11.30 am along the bottom half of the M25, give us a toot or a flash (of your horn, I will have a lady passenger!) to show your appreciation of these beasts.

Alan.

Just thought I'd give all you PHERS a heads up.

Lamborghini have looked upon this years Frankfurt show as an opportunity to concentrate on Gallardo, and according to the conversation I have just had, Geneva will be all for the new uprated Murcielago!!

I for one can't wait.

If you want to know more, mail me through my profile.

Cheers,

Alan.

Anyone seen the details of the new Gallardo being developed in the same vain as the 'GT3' and 'Challenge Stradale'?

550 bhp, rear wheel drive, should be out next year.

Can't say much more than that at the moment, but should see development mules running soon.

Hello to you all,

just thought I'd update you on a few car related items.

We have just had confirmation that our order for a Ferrari FXX on behalf of a good customer of ours, has been accepted, and we can expect delivery sometime in February;

That we have also been approached regarding servicing and crash repair on the Bugatti Veyron;

And lastly, we have a Maserati MC12 downstairs, which is the single most awesome car I have ever seen. Truly beautiful. Puts other high end cars to shame in it's details.

See you all soon,

Alan.

Just thought I'd let you know that we had a road legal Porsche 962 CR, designed and built by Vern Schuppan in today.

We were preparing it for the Top Gear stand at the MPH 05 show in London.

If you see it, let me know what you think.

I tried it on for size, and could hardly get out, god knows what it is like to drive. Frightening probably!

Still an amazing bit of kit.

Cheers,

Alan.
