Can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday morning
Discussion
Hi there,
Had an e-mail in the week from Simon (simonspider) telling me that he had a Gallardo Superleggera from Lamborghini for a few days. He asked me if I would like to meet up with him and get some shots of the Superleggera and the LP640 together.
Obviously I jumped at the chance. I left home around 7.45am and met up with Simon in Leeds around 9.15am. Had a good look round the Superleggera before we headed over to Warrington to meet up with Andy in the LP640.
Have to say the Superleggera is a stunning car and very subtle in 'Battleship' Grey. Doesn't draw as much attention as the LP640 from passers by, but still awesome.
Simon told me that the car is quite hard to drive around town, certainly not as useable as the LP640, and the 4 point harnesses become a pain after a while. He also told me the car is very quick !
Took quite a few shots as you would expect. Heres one to be going on with: -
Will post some more as soon as I have worked through them.
Regards
Tim

What beats me is wondering where those oilcans were carried in the two cars...
Surely they weren't brought over the Pennines and up from Staffordshire in the boots and passenger seats of the two cars?
Were they dragged behind using string along the M6 and M62?
Why are things like that never on the local news?

Hi there,
OK I am fed and watered now so here are the rest of the pics: -
You're right interior, calipers and oil cans all match.
Have done loads of static shots recently so fancied some out and about in the real world.
The one below is one of my favourites.
Doesn't get any more real than the M6.
Hope you like the pictures, and once again many thanks for Simon, Andy and Rick for the opportunity.
