was at those service's the other weekend and there was a few Lambourghini's there.
A mix of Urus/Aventador/Huracan.
It was also an eclectic mix of owners too, some young badmaz and then there were some old boys enjoying their raging bulls too.
I had one between 2017 and 2019
I spent £3k on it while I had it, just under half of that was sorting rust.
It hadn't had the big jobs (rod bearings/head gasket/boot floor/vanos) done but it ran fine so never bothered me (didn't bother the new owner either).
VM sales teams have been ringing em a few times a day over the past few weeks and I've been ignoring them.
Anyway today I took the call and they offered me the ultimate oomph bundle for £110 (same bundle available to new customers for £89).
The new price being offered of £110 is slightly more...
205 gti (first one), bought with suspected head gasket failure. Tried fixing it myself, got fed up so broke the car for spares (there was lots of other things wrong with the car too) ended up making more than double what i paid for it by breaking it.

took my niece to her prom in my Porsche on Thursday and bumped into a friend of a friend in this (belongs to his boss).
he brought it round on Sunday for us to have a look around (didn’t go out in it sadly)

I'm sure at one point he said he was a motoring journalist. I'd love space for 11 cars to be able to keep some forever and constantly keep swapping the others.
yeah he's my regular Sunday night viewing.
Would love to be able to have a full restoration done like he's done on a number of his cars.
It's refreshing how open he is to what it all costs. He also manages to do it without ramming his wealth down your throat.
I think it's a great car but the styling is far too much for me (and possibly other people too, by the relatively small amount of them you see on the road).
I always cringe a little when I see someone over 50 getting out of one.
