Driving back to London on the M## (private road in yorkshire!) yesterday, and a Diablo pulls on from the exit slip. what a beauty! so as any school boy would I hit the gas to catch up. Now I've got a standard my98, so I was not even trying, just wanted to hear the roar. As I pulled closer at about 90, he saw me in his mirror and decided to floor it. I tried, but luckily he stopped accelerating at 120, the gap was getting embarassing. The sound was bliss though. Stayed with him for a few miles, and then the wife decided she need a p and I had to stop at the next pit stop....ggrrrrr...worst timed p ever or wot! Anyway made my weekend.
Anyone else had the pleasure?

Pulled up along side one on the M23, lovely sounding but I didn't attempt to stay with it as it would have been a losing battle. Would have liked to have seen your one enter the motorway from the exit slip !!!!

Thumbs up

I tried with my old motorbike a few yrs ago as a guy who lives in the estate up the road from me has a grey R reg diablo and I managed to keep up with him but we both ran out of road thankfully but I have to agree with earlier post, it sounds amazing and looks mean as **** from the rear.

Cool

Was anyone at Santa pod for last years USC? If so did you witness the little green Mini that whooped the Diablo down the strip?? Possibly the funniest things I've ever seen

The mini was quite serious though rear wheel drive with a cossie lump I think thing looking like a big hand grabbed it and threw it down the tarmac!!!!
