Diablo SV or VT

[Rocco1]

Hello all,just cant get the Diablo out of my mind,but the question is which would you guys go for,the one being sold by Monks Heath Diablo SV yellow(autotrader advert and on here sorry cant do a link) or the red Diablo VT being being offered by Panorama Bay Motor Company(sorry again cant do a link)also please give your reasons why,thanks Tony.

Yello SV for sure, have seen it. Why is the red one wearing the number plate PARVA? They are well known manufacturers of Lambo replicars.

Went to see the yellow SV and it is a very clean car,the only thing that put me of it was the information given to me before I went to see it (was rather misleading)I was told it was a 6.0 and only covered 5000klms,so when I got there it was an anti climax.

[jontysafe]

Isn`t it too early to be a 6.0?

Terry Keys had just got an SV in stock last week. No idea on engine size though but it did look well.

A 6.0 is a 6.0VT. No such thing as a 6.0SV

I did my home work before I got to Monks Heath,but they insisted it was a 6.0,yet when I called Lambo Reading and gave the vin number it came up as a 5.7,when I question Monks over the phone they said it was a special edition,so had to go and see it.When I got there the story had changed,infact the salesman who I spoke to had gone out for the day!

I've not driven the VT but I have a 'personal crisis' each time I drive my SV :-)

Idiots clearly. Probably confused by the increase in power for the SV, though 98+ cars had anothing HP increase too. Having driven most diablo models, a low ratio SV is definitely the most fun per pound.

I can vouch for SV being loads of fun The short-ratio box does wonders

[andysv]

that sv is a 5.7 as were all sv's, it is my old car it also has close ratio box, i had it for 8 years before selling it last year.
