Murcielago with balboni stripe

[ezi]

Driving past Winchester Cars in Sheffield the other day, and I saw what I thought was a Gallardo Balboni in the corner of my eye in the back of the showroom, checked out the website and it's actually this: http://www.winchestercars.co.uk/stocks/stock-show-...

What are other peoples thoughts on it ? I personally don't like it at all and think it looks incredibly tacky compared to the gallardo.

Don't like the shield sticker (ala Ferrari) on the front wing either.

Does anyone know if this is the same Murci they had in stock a few months ago, a green one with black lines below the headlights? That was rather horrific too and a white one popped up instantly after the green one went.

I have to say I quite like it - looks good on white.

I've seen it in the flesh and was not impressed. It looked quite tacky and I the diamond encrusted Lamborghini badge is a bit much! As far as I know the white car is the green one, but just re-sprayed.

Don't mind the sticker, although would prefer it standard. As for those Ferrari type shields on the side

Just trying to attract more attention, not something I feel is entirely necessary given it's a murcielago. If you want attention just stick it sideways going into the first roundabout you see....

Was that the car that was a kind of olive green(ish) colour and was for sale for ages and ages oh and it was a manual. If so will the respray not affect its resale value?

Don't even get me started on this car... I understand it has an eventful past and I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole.
This is how it used to be prior to the re-spray: http://athorby.zenfolio.com/p558556477/h2c359bb9#h...
And yes you're probably right about the re-spray, but that's a story in itself!
I'm not going into it on the forums but if anyone wants to know specific details please PM me.

The plate on that Lamborghini is now on a Rolls Royce Drophead Coupe,I saw it parked outside Harrods in May last year. They must have had that Lamborghini for quite along time, they could not sell it whilst it was a greenish colour so had to re-spray it in white.

That's my video! I've got a fair few vids of that LP at full chat - it does sound awesome. That plate and the one on the LP are regularly swapped between the cars...
