First Lamborghini
Discussion
Give David at Lamborghini Pangbourne a ring - he'll know.
Is it e or manual?
I've never had an e but my experience of manual Lambos is that, as long as you use the clutch like a switch, they seem to last a long time. If you don't, you get a very particular smell and, as someone once said, it's a very expensive smell.

+1Many thanks for the replies, I have contacted Dave Walton who is going to give the car a onceover. SimonSpider many thanks I am surprised at the possible mileage from an E-Gear. I have only heard horror stories about these cars by people who have never owned one! Looking forward to an interesting ownership. The car has only done 8k miles so should be OK for general servicing (I hope). Its also fitted with ceramic brakes so plan to have these checked as I know how expensive they can be. A big step up from a Pantera.
Well done John,, I must say I was not expecting you to go down the route of a Murcielago, waste of time me trying to give you advice on "sensible" alternatives to the Pantera eh
Congrats, you will love it, they are proper old school dinosaurs in the best sense.
Is it Phil's Murci you bought?

Gents,
Car arrives on 10/05, but insurance company insist on having a tracker fitted. Two tracker companies not sure if they wish to do job as they say it involves removing rear wheel to get to the battery. Any experience appreciated.

John - try Locktons for a quote - they did not insist on a tracker for my Diablo, even though one was already fitted - PM me, and I'll give you more details etc. Hope to see you soon at the Crown and Fastlane ShowCar arrives on 10/05, but insurance company insist on having a tracker fitted.

Cheers Dave, I don't think I will be able to make it to the show as its the first day I will have the car, but will make it to come see your mates with the Countach and Diablo Hi john
I had to provide access for the tracker to be fitted,
Involves removing the nearside rear wheel and the inner wheel arch,
Not difficult as it's not much more than what you need to do to get to the battery,
Good luck and congrats with the car,
If you need any more info, just mail me
