Thinking of changing the gallardo for a murcie roadster, can any of you guys give any feedback about how useable it is with out shit weather and the roof only rated to 110MPH?

Thanks

Andy

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all the feedback, still waiting to hear from an actual owner (I think I may have a long wait!)

In Reply to Bund's question: The gallardo is an awesome car, compared to my previous 993 GT2 the performance is probably the same (Handling is alot better) but the experience,sound(the best bit!) and peoples reactions all make a far more special experience.

I love the Gallardo, I just think the Murci has a far greater prescence on the road and it has the proper doors. The gallardo is still a better looking car IMO but I think a Murcie Roadster will command even more attention from Joe Public.

Mr C: Where abouts in the country are you? When i took my Gallardo into Lambo manchester last year for a service they had a new white Murcie Roadster for customer delivery (its got to be the same car, I can't believe there's two white ones in the UK). Anyway had a sit in it... awesome.

Stin,

Thanks for the inside info about Ed. I did send him an e-mail from piston heads enquiring what the murcie roadster was like, but he hasn't replied as yet. If you could have a word with him and send me any feedback it'd be appreciated.

Had a quick flick thru max power this morning at the airport. Nice collection of cars for an 18 year old!! and to think i thought i was doing well at 19 with a 205 GTI!! (a long time ago though now!!)

thanks

andy.
