Bye Bye Lotus

[deecee]

I'm selling my Esprit and stepping up to a Diablo.

Any Buying Advice as to what Model Years are better?

been done here before, but i would go as late and as low miles as your budget will let you, you want fsh obviously. sv or 6lt probably the best cars with near zero depreciation today. my guess would be you will need 65k upwards to get into an sv. the 98 on cars are reputed to be better built though my 97 has been faultless. take your time the best ones rarely come up for sale, i always recommend a chat with jason barker, ex lambo uk sales manager, find him through his website, remember he sold neary every diablo in the uk(officially)he knows a lot about them.

Echo what Andy says to a tee. If you can stretch to a 6ltr, it will be well worth it.

For a slightly cheaper option, have you seen the SV listed in the Diablo section of PistonHeads sales?

A friend has pointed out your location. As you are stateside, i'd strongly recommend Roy Cats www.catsexotics.com. He knows all lamborghini's, and if you check out www.lambo-power.com he's got a strong reputation for sourcing cars at the best money. A bit like an American Dion Speak/Elms Collection
