Now in its been 3 months trying to find a Diablo 6.0 in orange and just can not find one.So what do I do? (A) Wait till I find one or (B) Buy somthing different? If I go with (B) then I would like to have a go at a 16M but I really dont want to part with best part of £160k for a second choice,so thinking of a Scud instead as they seem to be good/okay value for £120k,or just sit and wait,what do you think?

Completely up to you.

Have you driven either? That may be the final decision.

Or...

This and wrap it orange.

Or...

Be more flexible about colour.

Not into wrapping cars,had a 430 which was okay, never seen a Diablo 6.0 in flesh latalone driving one.Just keep thinking the Diablo is the one for me but just can't find one,whereas the Scud/16M might be more user friendly and (I say might) be less likley to wrong/breakdown!

I'd stay open minded about that. If it's done right, it looks great.

Not too sure about that...Diablo's, if looked after, are very strong cars. Ntt much goes wrong with them.

I think the question of orange 6.0s was discussed a short while ago. There are only three, none likely to come to market soon.

One of them was at Cliveden last weekend.

I'd go for the Scud, they are just bonkers and a real sense of occassion.

I watched one blast away down the Mulsanne on the Friday at LeMans last year, the sound was just epic.

Are we talking before or after VW/Audi took over?

I prefer the pre-VAG cars, my '99 SV is, as Clarkson said, "Just looking for an excuse to kill you". Certainly keeps me on my toes :-)
