Well despite Robs attempts to sabotage itshootbiglaugh I have now collected my Superleggerabounceclap!!!!
Must say i'm loving it!!!
I think It looks stunning in Grigio. Haven't had much time to Give it some yet but already it feels a lot quicker and much more surefooted, with so much grip!!!




Note: Thats the first and last time the girlfriend sits in that seat!!!


Must say a big thank you to all involved!! (Roll credits!!)

Something you want to share with any of us, nice car but the colour is a bit dull.

Just watch the girlfriend don't catch you giving lifts to the young girls at the club!!!

I was returning from test driving a white Gallardo when you were picking that up I think. You had a smile from ear to ear!!!

Car looked a million dollars - well done!

Incidently, I think there were five SLs out the back. One of them was white which looked pretty special.

Dell,

Congrats on the Superleggera, what a great car and the grey is possibly my favourite colour.

Just can decide whether I like the bigger wing or if I prefer the smaller one.

Hope to see it at one of this years events.

Thanks! I know what you mean about the wing! But i am a bit of a "boyracer" at heart!!! (My other car is a 3door Sierra Cosworth, with an even bigger wing!!!)

1st time in one and i was completely sold! So much fun. Just when I thought it couldn't get any better, we took out an e-gear spyder. Hood down to fully appreciate the sun and the throttle blip with the downshifts!

Went in looking for an 04 coupe, came out trying to justify an 07 spyder. Should have expected it really...

Main decision now is manual or e-gear. I drive to work through central london every day and am a little concerned about the "e-gears go into town centres to die" stories.

Must say having done 14,000 miles in a manual Gallardo and about 150 miles in the SL it's a bit early to judge!!? I loved the manual car. But i did nearly always double declutch etc! Depends on how hard you want to work for your thrills i guess??! On the other side of things My drive is on a slope and reversing off it in the SL does cause the clutch to smell a bit!! (It's a very short drive, although on a slight incline!)

Hi mate, must say i didn't think White was an option??! The speaker is a JBL control 6 The dealer put them in cos the car was not speced with audio!! Put they put in the full Lambo Nav, Tel, and 6disc changer etc!! sounds better then my last one tbh! I love the SD cards slot as well!!
You sold yours ok then mate?
