Lets assume that I'm daft enough to convince myself that I need a Diablo does anyone know if there is anyone who gets specializes. I know of Modena Cars and Rosso Corsa and even Kent High Performance get involved but are there any specialists who I haven't come across. Didn't there used to be someone called Amari in Manchester. All suggestions welcome

I have no experience of any of these due to being poor...but you could look at [url]www.topgear-cars.co.uk/pages/showroom2005.php[/url] they seem to have an abundance of Lamborghinis

and ....the 6.0L VT is a completely more modern and accomplished car than the previous 5.7L VT ...check up on all the old posts made by "Anjum" and you'll have more than enough information on whether the Diablo is worth the aggro!!

Hi targaman,
a very good friend of mine is selling his mint 1993 diablo 2wd in metallic blue with blue leather, 20,000 miles from new. Serviced, maintained and originally bought from Mike Pullen. If you are interested he wants £46,000 bottom line no offers and the car is right hand drive. I drove this car most of the way to Le Mans and back last year, it is the dogs dangly bits. He also lives in NW London

You got it, thats Gary's car. Ebay was a complete waste of time. You put no part exchanges in the add and Gary was offered four boats and six cars in part exchange. He doesn't want a part exchange he needs the money to buy another mates 1999 Diablo SV. One guy who bid £45100 and we retracted the bid. His maximum bid was £455,000, what a wan**er. The funniest question was " Me and my brother own a car very similar to yours. Can you tell me if your wheels get caught up in the carpet and when this happens does your windsceen fall out". Gary was not amused but I did see the funny side of it.

speak to jason barker, ex sales manager lambo uk. knows were a lot of the cars are, and has possibly driven most of the uk diablos, he can tell you what's hot and what's not. he found mine for me when i wanted specific spec. go and get one you know you want one, don't believe the bullshit(from non owning experts) it's an awesome car.
