What an awesome presence this car has, not to mention physically very big too.

Glad he didn't try anything daft, or I'd have been forced to embarass him (!)

A mate had one for a while and took j.r-xrs and me out in it a couple of times. It IS huge and very quick. We also went around Goodwood in it on a day for Lamborghini enthusiasts, so there were loads of others there too.

My mate is an accomplished driver, so the trip around Goodwood was quick indeed, the acceleration amazing and the race-prepared Lotus 7 behind us couldn't keep up!.

Have been in the yellow 6.0 VT that was in all the mags, this time last year.

Took it to Autosport as Lambo UK sales manager was a mate. I have never driven anything like it.

Only just coming on cam in 5th at beyond the top speed of a UK Impreza

I didn't think I could pay £150k for a car, ever, no matter how many times I had won the lottery. Until that day

Very, very difficult to discuss without mentioning speeds that would shock some people.

Seen several. One of my all time favorite cars. Have several models of them.

One of my best moments was being buzzed past by a Ferrari F40 at full chat. T'was at the 'Ring.

One went past me once on the M74 going to Glasgow. It was early evening, not a soul on the roads. I had the window down with the radio on when it went past me at eleventy million miles an hour. Scared me to death.
