Was this one out and about near Eton on Sunday?

[Squirrel Nutkins]

Just asked him and he says yep was there in Eton cruising round at the French fair.

Only drive it in the dark ?

Edited to add: just winding you up Tuscan S, I've never seen the point in doing anything to a car that doesn't make it go faster, stop quicker or handle better. P'raps it's just old age

Well the wheels are lighter, the sound system makes u WANT to go faster...

[RosCabezas]

Anyone there buys souls?

[tuscan_s]

Maybe the Devil will part exchange one for his car...

[castex]

Are the wheels really lighter? Haven't they been dipped in chrome?

LOL...very amusing.... car looks fabulous guys....absolutely awesome!

[tuscan_s]

Well I heard they were lighter. They are made in Japan and claim to be lighter than standard Murci wheels.

Who cares when they look that good!

The more of them, I see the more I like Murcielagos.... the car does look damn hard... This is a total u-turn on what I thought before.. can someone get one in yellow?

[tuscan_s]

Cheers Manu!

Dom thinks I should get one in bright orange....if I can get the 'living flame' effect paint shown on the Dodge Copperhead concept a while back Id be VERY tempted have to say...

[manu]

When is yours coming Nightmare... and what colour is it?
You've got to take me out for a burn in it so I can actually get a chance to enjoy this car unlike last time (see related thread...)

Agree 100% with this. Mind you seeing one 'live' doesn't half help!

And now, I need flaming.

I think the Gallardo is bloody awful.

I fully reserve the right, however, to do a complete about face the first time I see one in the land of the unapologetic toupee (Cheshire).

There was a yellow one at the Paris motorshow and it looked absolutely stunning.
I do not know what kind of yellow this is - clearly a metallic color - but certainly the most beautiful yellow I have ever seen on car.

(It looked much much better than the dark blue one which was at Le Mans classic; it would appear dark colours do not do any favour to this utterly beautiful shape.)

No, No, No.
The Gallardo is not bloody awful, in fact its wonderful.
One thing I really must point out is that it looks alot better in the flesh and nothing, I repeat nothing like a bloody Toyota!

Thom, I think the yellow you are talking about is Giallo Midas, which was one of the Gallardo show colours.

As an aside, I think if you are going to buy a Lamborghini you need to go stealth colour (black) or "look at me I have a lambo" (orange or yellow)

Macari's have a yellow Murc' in at the minute. Or did the last two times I drove past last week.

Lovely motor. Might be able to afford one in 10yrs time

Just spotted this in Windsor. Very nice. Still not convinced on the wheels though.

Not sure if it's just the colour but it appears a much smaller car on the road than the Diabolo.

Gallardo is bloody awful ????

I am really looking forward to seeing one on the road.
And DER....I am really suprised at your response have you had a transfusion of something other than optimax?

The one thing with all of the gay-ardo pictures I have seen is the strange angle of the rear diff from the rear view,,,WHY!!! it's like talking to a beautiful girl and you cannot divert your eyes away from a spot on her face....maybe I should be looking elsewhere in both intances ?
