Yellow Diablo SV at Motorhub

[360Matt]

Hi all,

Is anyone familiar with this car? RHD and seems to be UK supplied...

Before anyone mentions it, I know the reputation of Motorhub.

Thanks
Matt

ok being constructive here I'd say the following . it has been for sale for a while on car and classic for 200k. The steering wheel is wrong has it been in a shunt at some point ..... The service history on this should be enormous if it's not walk away. It should have a minimum of 17 minor services and 3 major services and 2 valve adjustments . The thing that worries me is these SV diablos normally get sold even before they come to market as they are so sought after and the chassis on these can be horrendously corroded. Looks great body wise until you take the rear quarter panels off and it's all a total mess. Take it to David Jenkins at Pangbourne for a 2hr inspection, costs £360 if it passes take a brave pill and enjoy the rollercoaster ride of highs and lows that is Lamborghini ownership . Set aside an absolute minimum of 15-20k for bills in the first 18-24 months.

Steering wheel is off an SE30 by the looks of it.

Have you seen the one at Carlo's ? (Top Gear)

And facebook, a score of 2.2 from ?91 votes - that's gotta be a record.


Their reputation must be fairly widespread, as most of the cars are around 15% below true market value but they still hand around on their books for long periods of time.
For example, they've got a RHD UK Superleggera for £90k that's been for sale for ages.
If that was for sale anywhere else, I'd have gone for a look but purely as it's them that's selling, I simply dismissed it.

Having a slow afternoon at work, so I googled Motorhub, Yorkshire after reading this. Some seriously amusing reviews

Not that I'm local, but I'd avoid this place just off the back of so many awful reviews!

I'm just amazed that that has taken so long to occur.

And still trading!
