Lambo at Ian Forster's garage - Testo's r/b

[Byff]

Went past there this morning - Blue Lamborgini Gallardo in the showroom. Awesome looking machine but seems a little on the small side in the flesh.

someone in mackemland owns a lamborghini? my god!

sorry...must have been a nice sight though - I can't get over how small supercars actually are!

Byff, where is the garage??? I might have to have a toddle down and deposit some slava

It's on the A184 Newcastle road Eastbound, just before the A19 Testos roundabout.

Can't wait for the salt and cr*p to clear from the roads and get the Noble out. Track day season is not far away.

Cheers,
Ian.

I couldn't resist it, I had to go in and take a closer look - had a little sit in it, but the salesman told me to be careful so thought there would be no way I could blag a test drive

If anyone wants to buy it, its for sale at £139,999, would you believe it, I'm a fiver short - never mind.

went to see this gallardo tthe other day,didnt drive it, yes smaller than imagined, makes the neighbouring bentley continental gt look huge. price has been dropped 10k to £129,995, i can see it getting lower as the premiums for start to fall. Im not all that sure they want rid of it, tbh its pulling in people from all over who may be tempted by the imported porsches that are more affordable in most cases (although i wouldnt buy an imported porsche personally, stick to main dealers, they dont want to know about these cars)

Yeah, that pile of sit car nearly made me crash on the way to karting on friday!

Jk bout the "pile of " btw. Beautiful thing, didnt believe my eyes at first

I went in for a look at the Lambo on Thursday. Nice car, wrong colour. I would have one!

I had a chat with the salesman about the Porsches. They come via an OPC in Cyprus. They sell them at list. An excepton was a GT3 RS that they sold at a premium. I said (carefully) to a salesman that I wouldn't buy a parallel import unless they were offering a discount. He didn't like that. Mind you, I also said that I wouldn't buy a brand new Porsche for depreciation reasons (GT3 RS excepted).

Still, the yellow GT3 mark 2 around the back was nice and the Bentley wasn't bad either.
