Lamborghini sure does make a nice car...

I made a little detour through Bologna on the way home from Bavaria today.

I have to say Lamborghini does make a nice little sports car

Damn shame they could give me an extra 500 Euro on the trade for my Fiat Punto or I would have walked out of there today with a new car.

Think the Punto is more practical, but there is something very special about Lamborghini. See a Ferrari and nice though they are I seldom give them a second glance, see a Lamborghini and my jaw drops and I get goosebumps. Love the Miura and the Countach.

I'd like to know whose teams Lamborghini powered in those F1 cars. I know Lamborghini in 1993 was going to supply engines for McLaren through a handshake deal by Bob Luz and Ron Dennis, who at the time owned Lamborghini methinks.


Cool pictures to see, thank you for sharing.
