Hi Adam,

I loved the car before I drove it and that has not changed now. It was a quick drive as you are only given 3 laps of the track, which is a bit mean but Yes, if I had £60,000 I would seriously look at the car.........

There were 360's and 430's and a couple of Aston's too but for me the Lambo is just different, I am not an expert on the car and I am sure that as a pure racing machine there are many cars that could whip its **** but each to their own.

Have seen it on the road in red, and was nice. Should have been the S version, that made an astonishing sound!

Like the new mini...

Why do you have only 3 laps on the track? How does it work there?

Hi Cambio,

I had a voucher for the driving experiance and depending on the track it is valid for depends on how many laps you are down to do. This was Silverstone and the southern part so is was 3 laps only. I think other tracks may give you more but it depends on the lenght of the track.
This was a little bit like a factory processing people into and out of the cars, it was still very enjoyable though!

On the day you report and sign in as the driver, have a drivers briefing and then off to the start of the driving experiance and off you go!

Hey Paul!Can you hire the Gallardo or anything else for one hour, for example?How much are the costs?

Hi Cambio,

Not sure on costs on hiring, all i can say is look in Ebay and there is every now and then a voucher for an experiance going cheap for one reason or another

Hi deano, were the changes harsh because you were getting a bit of a wiggle on, or at all speeds?

Driven one and it is quick with good grip and tight cornering, best in dry then you can really cane it, get out smiling. Some struggle with limited footroom, if you have the larger foot, wear thin not bulky shoes.
