Just come across this in 'Historics' Sept auction catalogue



http://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auctions/2015-08...

Interior is particularly tasteless/tasteful (delete as appropriate!)



It doesn't give any details of mileage or history but i guess if its mechanically sound and bought 'cheap' enough, you could always factor in a retrim and respray.

Anyone know the history of, or come across, this particular Diablo before?

It's white underneath the purple wrap.
The interior will make a lot more sense once the wrap is removed.

The front bumper & fog light combination is horrible, also what is the number plate, ROA 12S?

I saw this car at Mike Pullen's in late 2007 or maybe early 2008. So he will probably know something about it.

I might be mistaken, but I'm pretty sure that L4 MVT plate was used by Lamborghini GB on their demo car at the time.

It will be very interesting to see where this clears vs the given 98-120k range guidance

According to Historics this didn't sell, does anybody know where it stalled at ?

Or the owner ?

Thanks

Well, I saw this car apparently broken down on the A21 near Tonbridge last night. Had to check the reg to make sure it was a proper Diablo as the front didn't look quite 'right'.

Odd decision to change the colour and bumpers on one of these!

It went for £110k according to the auction sales log.

I suspect the new owner is pretty miffed breaking down in first week!

If you look at the auction results it didn't sell.

http://www.historics.co.uk/buying/auctions/2015-08...

but it is available to buy for £110k as a 'private treaty' sale.

That's how i interpret Historics website.
