LP560 arrives on Tuesday! Woohoo!
Sad to see the 07 5.0 Coupe go it's been amazing and I've done 55,000 miles without a hitch!
Let's hope the 560 is as good to me as the 5.0 in the last 4 years!!!

I went from a 2008 5.0 Spyder to a 2013 LP560-4 Spyder earlier this year. Seems a touch more refined although I haven't noticed a huge difference in all honesty. Still loving every minute in it though smile

Ahh! Dr Proof!! Brian Clapp has granted me my International Racing licence again!! But Mrs Wilson wants more done on the house!! So my Formula 5000 money stays in the New Gallardo before that becomes part of the building fund!! Having a BMW touring built though to race in Brit Car with my son Ben!! That will be fun.

I've tried the Huricane so many times, and I love it, but Gallardos going up in value and the look of the facelift model at around the 6 digit money versus double!! I'm just still so smitten by the aggressive nature of the Gallardo!! And maybe a Hurricane in 18 months? I'm watching the prices.

Perhaps less miles in this one, Ive bought a Porsche with a tricked engine to keep my mind off driving a Lamborghini every day!! It's like my rowing machine in my bedroom, that has become the worlds most expensive clothes horse! Pamela has been folding washing on the bonnet of the Porsche in the garage that backs on to the laundry shed!! So that's now the worlds most expensive laundry folding thing!!!

I wake up at 5 am by habit I look at the weather and if it's clear of cloud, the Lamborghini comes with me to work! Porsche is a Targe pretty as can be and I love it! But it has to get used to the rain!!

Is it me or is it just that the Gallardo is the edgy aggressive Lamborghini that is just out there at a price that frankly nothing else exists?

Too much white wine watching chasing classic cars!!

Cheers Jonny

I've done exactly the same this year from a 2008 5.0 Manual Spyder to a 2011 LP560-4 Egear Spyder. I prefer the styling on the newer car. Plus the egear and nose lift make the car much easier to live with. Splitting hairs really as both are fantastic cars! Enjoy.
