Just wondering if any PH'ers know the history of this car at all ?

http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/367135.htm

Also, are there any good Lambo / Diablo specific websites with plenty of info ? IE along the lines of Fchat, Club Scud etc....

Cheers

The red carpets suggest to me it could be a re-coloured car? Yellow became a popular colour and so a few were changed. www.lamborghiniregistry.com has info on a large fraction of all lambos.

on web site, so to cars>diablo>2WD>registry

At face value that car seems a steel. Needs a thorough pre purchase inspection at say Carrera Sport for that most important piece of mind

Pretty much what I was thinking however there seem to be a lot of ropey cars out there at the moment......

We shall see....might need to shift my Fezza first anyway unless they can offer me a decent trade...saying that I could probably stretch to owning both for a while, the missus will kill me however !

I know that car.

The engine rebuild was a no-expense spared job and would trust that to be healthy for a long while yet.

Everything else is to be expected for a car that age. The interior is looking a bit tired. It has had a colour change and if I'm honest, I wasn't impressed with the standard of the paint.

If fact, I can go one better.

Here's the blog of the rebuild with a few other facts you might find interesting

The link now goes to a Fezza so it must have sold.

Is the lucky owner one of us?

The car has sold to a London owner.
The car was originally red, and apparently the respray wasn't exactly top rate.
Still, at that price, you wouldn't expect a mint car.
