Second test drive today in the Huracan! I love it! Millbrook test track thanks to HR Owen.
I use my Gallardo virtually every day, just gone through 52,000 and not a fault! Albeit I keep on top of it through the service guys at Lambo Sevenoaks. Overall cheaper to run than my wife's XK!
I just love the technology of the Huracan but the Gallerdo is a race car on the road! There is very little to it! So nothing really to go wrong but replace bits that simply wear like any other race car, clutch, engine refresh etc
But the new engineering, clutch etc makes the Huracan more traffic friendly.
Will the Huracan depreciate and leap back like the Gallardo?
It feels a little bit like dumping Sandra Bullock for a younger model!
Perfect solution would to be have both, but let's not peruse that yet!!!
Help! I'm in the middle of the man maths calculation!!!!

Surely I'm not the only one going through this?

I've done exactly the same as you.. I had my LP560 Spyder for 11 months and loved it... However my Huracan that i picked up in March has now done 8k miles, its not a daily driver but if its dry it comes out.... Technology heaven, double clutch and better everything IMO....
You wont look back....

I was at Millbrook as well today at the same gig and am left with the same dilemma over my LP560. I loved the new tech of the H but the looks still leave me thinking whether it's really worth the £100k to upgrade. Sure it looks more modern but it leaves me underwhelmed. I wonder if when the future limited editions come out they will do a good job of spicing it up a
little.

the one with the shorter name is younger, lighter, better looking, more intelligent, just plain better

Brother in law absolutely loves his and uses it as a daily driver. Says it's the easiest lambo he's been able to live with.
