Been pondering for ages about buying a Gallardo and looking at the bargains out there at the moment it's becoming more and more tempting! However, I have a few questions:

My garage has a slight 3 inch lip at the entrance - it's fine for my Griff, with a couple of inches to spare, but would a Gallardo have enough ground clearance.

I have a pretty big double garage, but I keep a fair amount of firewood at one end. What is the length of a Gallardo? Quite short I'm thinking!

What are they like to live with and what is it with the rumour of them catching fire every now and then?

Thanks in advance!

Make a concrete ramp up to your garage. Any car can catch fire, just more amusing when it's a lambo, so more coverage.
