Lot 166 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder

• Low mileage example
• Comprehensive Service History
• Fabulous V10 Engine

Both eminently usable and importantly, reliable, the Gallardo was manufactured from 2003 to 2013 and was the most successful model in the Sant‘Agata firm’s history, with more than 14,000 produced. The recipe is simple: an even-firing V10 nestled behind the driver, Lamborghini’s signature wedge-shaped profile, and more than 500bhp, hurling you towards 60mph in just over four seconds. Named after legendary Spanish bullfighter Francisco Gallardo, it was offered with either a conventional six-speed manual transmission or an ‘E-gear’ - a six-speed automated manual gearbox, allowing for quicker gearshifts than the manual.

Compared to Sant’Agata’s offering today, the Gallardo looks subtle to the point of being subdued – neither word often associated with Lamborghini. This example was registered on January 1^st 2007, and finished in grey over black, is fabulously sleek. It was fitted with a full leather interior, confirming its usability as a true grand tourer, as well as an out-and-out supercar. Our vendor has owned the car for just over a year and kept it garaged throughout. Having received it as a 40^th birthday present, he’s now looking for something else to enjoy. The car shows a mere 51,000 miles on the clock and received a major service at 50,000. This is your opportunity to acquire a usable modern classic, with a great service history, and an unforgettable soundtrack. Consigned by Charlie McCreery.
