It certainly is cheap, really the question is why given others are asking £20-50,000 more?

Somebody in deep trouble and needing to liquidate it quickly? LHD obviously hits the value in RHD market, but it is cheap indeed...

what strikes me is that the side of the driver's seat has had an elbow patch repair.... very odd that...

Erm, not really, the question is why it's £20-£50,000 cheaper than the others.

Anyway, if you find out it's straight let me know. I wouldn't mind getting another, especially at that price, great cars.

Also selling a GT3 RS on a no reserve auction

Google the mobile and it soon reveals the owner is very active in social media and has had all sorts of decent cars.

Either you misunderstood me or I am you, we said the same thing. I think a decent 15-20k mile sl is worth 90 -100k lhd

Haha, you're right. I didn't quite read what you wrote.

I'm very curious about this car. Saying that, a GT3 RS at a bargain price would be nice too.

Never you mind

Lambos really are better used vfm than Ferrari
the SV/Superleggeras are still so reasonable compared to scuds etc

Black is a rhd with ceramics not really comparable on price to the one op linked. But it's very nice

I think that Orange one is a French car we thought about when we were looking. It's not in a good way which probably explains the price.

That black one does look good VFM for a RHD and as far as I can see, original (apart from the painted calipers).

The black one is very rare. Wouldn't be a surprise to see Superleg prices tick up in sympathy with the inevitable Huracan Performante price jumps in the next few months.

The Gallardo is still very much the old model, even a very special one like that Superleggera will be valued on it's individual merits rather than what is happening on the wider new-car market. If anything's value is going to be sucked up by the Performante hype, it will be normal Huracans. There does seam to be loads of those on the nearly-new market at the moment but there may be a renewed interest which shows as a bounce in Huracan sales.

A rising tide can lift all ships. Saw the Fezza 430s and previous-generation 360s broadly rise in unison and sympathy in recent years. The HP is going to drive renewed interest from track-led buyers in the Lambo brand, who previously might have tilted toward Ferrari or Porsche. Could see a reevaluation of rawer models like the manual and lightweight Gallardos. Time will tell, of course.

The stats about 172 worldwide are incorrect (its 172 for the US models). There are 618 made and a good registry site here : http://www.gallardosuperleggera.com/

I know of a yellow one up for sale soon if anyone is interested
