Hi I sold my 997 c2s which was my daily driver for commute. I want to buy a G but I understand its not great for daily driving. For all gallardo users out there what do you use as your daily driver that doesnt make you feel bad after the gallardo.. within a reasonable budget of course.

I generally use my Scuderia when not driving the Lambo smile

Traxx - Legend! clap

There's a guy who uses his Gallardo most days around here. His other drive I think is a Range Rover. Seems to be a popular pairing.

Funny you should say that, two people who live on the same estate as I both havea G and a Range Rover.

Anybody on here live in nottinghamshire with a grey G and black RR and named ASH?

That may be me, but the RR is the wife's daily drive. I use my G for the 6 mile daily commute and love every second of it. I fail to see why you can't use one daily.

Drive into Chelmsford daily. I sit in traffic most nights on the way home, but no issue in the G. Easy to drive, realively comfortable etc. I don't see the point of a station car.. these things are built to be driven, why use a Mini when you have a G in the garage?

You can use a G as a DD without problem.

Unless you are looking for something which is more incognito?

Isnt that fella on here? Is it V-Neo or something? (I might be miles out!)

Used to see Traxx in his G very regulary on the commute. Its great to see these cars used daily.

I use my Gallardo Spyder every day, not a problem, I simply can't understand the pint of having that much invested in a car and then not using it.

If I'm going somewhere dodgy or have to move some stuff, I use a Boxster or Discovery respectively.
