Been in touch with Andy for a while and the SV sounds good.Also been to see it twice the only thing is the price.When I spoke to Monks last It was going to Thailand but its still here.The last SV that sold with same sort of miles was the purple SV in Scotland and the seller was asking £72k and some time later it was sold,but £85k seems too much.

I am told that the Purple one did not have much of a history. The £85k is a reflection of the quality of that car and the fact that there are hardly any others for sale...I think £80-85 is reasonable...

Andy, Oh No, you're selling it!! I do hope that you are replacing it with something suitably naughty.
Regards to you and your family.

To those of you who want to discuss the quality of this car, the only way of describing it are that you hear about certain cars that are better than new, absolutely immaculate because of the attention they have had lavished on them, and cars of such quality that no matter how many of them you see it makes you stop and stare, this is that car.

I just could not get over the attention and quality this car possesed when I first saw it, and I was working for Lamborghini at the time and surroubnded with these day in, day out.

Andy's car is exceptional in everyway, and the price should reflect that.

All I'll say is that the next owner will be very lucky.

Cheers,

Ruttboy.

It looks fantastic.

One thing I don't get is why some owners don't put more miles on their cars (?). I mean, this has covered just over 500 miles per year! Even if you have a few cars it's still very low mileage.

Cheers.

Probably because it is priced at the top of the market.

It's the same with all goods being sold, if you are prepared to accept an inferior product you can pay less. If however you want the very best the market place has to offer you will of course pay more.

Simple as that.

hi alan i sold it last year, this is the new owner punting it out through a dealer, shame he didn't like it as it's a beauty, it's appreciated in value a lot since last October too!! yikes
i wanted to replace it with an lp640 but now fancy a scuderia or maybe a balboni, so whilst i'm deciding i've gone totally mad and bought a gmc syclone, i'll probably jump in again next year when i can see which has better residuals and which is the best drive.

I have seen this car quite a few times in person now, and i have to say, the previous owner(s) have kept it in tip top condition, paint is very tidy along with the interior, it does look a cherished example.

it's a good car, i treated it really well and the previous owner did the same it saw rain once i'm told but never during my time, it's not perfect but is one of the best, i just got bored after 8 years and anyone that thinks you'll use one every day and pile the miles on is wrong (imho) you just cant use it like you do a regular car, also my seasonal job keeps me busy all summer plus i have other not so fast and expensive but just as much fun cars to use, yes most days i'd rather take an integrale

Diablo's are not fast sellers, but the good ones do sell. IMO, this particular car is worth the premium.hat

You need to figure what you want to pay for it, make a bid (if you haven't already) and see what happens...
