Saw one in Glasgow city centre today, all I can say is wow! Bright yellow...dont think it needs lights with that paintwork. It's a bugger i didnt get a chance to hear it. They certainly look a whole lot different in the flesh. As someone already said, its the car satan would drive to work

Oh, I also saw a silver F355 on the move, mmmm, such a nice sound. Some kind of supercar do on in Glasgow anyone??

Sounds like one of the dumb rich kids from Hong Kong was behind the wheel! They can't drive yet buy the most expensive supercar available to drive on Hong Kong Island When they crash a few days later and end up in hospital or in the ground everyone is shocked hmmm, what lengths people go to to show they have money eh.

Oh my god...it's been painted gold!!! And I thought trying to convince the missus that a tango orange one was a good idea (and blaming Domster every step of the way ) was difficult....must show her this pic'!

I've seen a silver 355 in Glasgow quite often over the last few weeks- i guess its the same one? The driver is depressingly young - some kids get all the luck!!!! I think he is the son of one of the owner of a well known night spot....
I saw a yellow 360 pootling about the city centre last weekend but I will be keeping my eyes peeled for the murcielago!

..which nightclub is that? Also, the owner of the "Shack" sometimes parks his exotica outside, including a silver 360M, its truly beautiful in that colour.

I also recently saw a red Diablo with driver circa late 20's. Fair do's if they've worked hard for it.

Is the guy with the silver 355 at uni possibly?

I've seen him going up and down university avenue a few times.

His insurance must be extortionate!

Never seen the 355 at GU but I have seen a green cerberba, tuscan and a blue tamora outside "gear"/"nicos". I'm sure they were all passing through though.

His insurance must be a couple of grand easy.

Oh, there is one student who owns an black elise, sometimes parks outside the stevie building, you may have seen it. And one lecturer has a nice Mitsubish Evo 6.

My boss is getting his delivered next month. Right hand drive in Grigio Antara (I think). It's like a smokey silver colour!

Do they look the biz in the flesh or what!

I think Satan's wife would drive this, we all know Satan would drive a TVR

Hello Getrag,

havn't checked the thread for a few days so excuse the delay in replying. I think that the young silver 355 driver may be the son of the owner of the 'shack.' I know a lad who knows him, so i'll ask and find out if there is any truth in all this!

I've seen the blue tamora a few times too - saw it today in fact. its the only one i've seen and I have to say its a bit 'fussy' at the rear. Still if someone dangled the keys in front of me i would complain....

Right, off to investigate the identity of the jammy young gentleman.....

Yep a rather attractive car she is. Sat behind one (Italian heirtage..) Peugeot 406 Coupe on the way back from Rugby during the motorshow. Guess thats where he'd been. The roads were far too busy 70ish in the fast lane. I was hoping that the road might open up and my annoying him might let him open it up a little but alas it didnt happen. The radio was off, the ac was off and the windows down just to appreciate the low earthy grumble. A ridculously attractive car.

'Those Murcielago's get around'

Saw my first in Monte Carlo back in May and wasn't blown away - the light colour made it look a bit flat.
Saw my second on Lower Thames street last night and it looked / sounded spectacular in Giallo Fly Yellow...

Yeah, its almost surreal when you see it, and in yellow its stunning.

And will someone give my a rating please, Im feeling slightly inadequate with no little words under my name. I realise this undermines the whole thing which i feel is cleeky and slightly nauseating anyway, but i suddenly feel distanced from pistonheads without one. Cheers.

Edited to say: Yay, I've finally got some.

The Murcielgo's are great to look at but not the most exciting to drive. Whilst I have beemn in one, I have yet to drive it. A chap I know has a 6.0 Diablo SE and a RHD 2002 Murcielago; according to him, the Diablo is the one that leaves you breathless after driving it.
