Morning all.

Had a friendly debate in the pub last night over who designed the Diablo. I reckon it was Marcello Gandini (although I'm sure I've spelt it incorrectly).

My friend reckons it wasn't, although he failed to come up with an alternative suggestion.

So, am I right?

Cheers.

Yup, you're correct (with both the fact and spelling ). Send your mates to the lambo website (www.lamborghini.com) and check out the 'heritage' selection of gorgeous monsters.

Cheers guys.....I feel quite smug now

The really sad thing is my mate actually used to own a Diablo, so he would have had to wash the little name plate on the sill.

It also took an age to convince him that it was a Miura that died an early death at the start of the Italian Job.

Some people eh, huh!

Can't sleep too save my life. I think all the travel catches up with me when I take a few days out. Curse American Airlines for nicking off with my passport. And $200 for a new passport from the British embassy and they take a week to deliver it AND I PAID THEM FOR NEXT DAY DELIVERY!!!! B@$tards! Old one will probably turn up the same day as the new one comes in
