2006 LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO - MANUAL

KEY FACTS

• A smart and well-maintained example of the modern classic supercar, presented in a rare colour scheme.
• Under the engine lid is the glorious 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V10, which produces 513bhp and is mated to the rare and sought-after six-speed open-gate manual transmission.
• First registered in March 2006, this original UK-market Gallardo benefits from having a full engine and gearbox rebuild during 2014.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

• As a 2006 model, this Gallardo benefits from a number of updates which were introduced by Lamborghini one year prior, including an engine upgrade, shorter gearbox ratios and sharper suspension.
• Finished in Silver over a Blue Scuro leather interior with white stitching, it rides on a set of 19-inch alloy wheels, which have recently been refurbished and finished in the graphite hue.
• This particular car has fantastic maintenance history, thanks in part to it being looked after by Vision Motorsport from late 2011 through to late 2016. During its time with the company, it was treated to a full engine and gearbox rebuild in 2014 and also modified with a de-cat exhaust.
• The vendor also believes that the ECU may have been remapped at some stage, as it is a very quick car.
• The car will be accompanied by all of its original handbooks and documents, including its service book and several invoices for its prior maintenance. A log of its service work from Vision Motorsport is also included.

CONDITION

• It is not known whether the car’s bodywork has suffered from any prior damage, but it presents very well today.
• The silver paintwork is in very good overall condition, with only a few minor blemishes including scratches and chips on the door handles. During their time with the car, the vendor has had the bonnet and door shuts resprayed to correct some minor marks.
• Its cabin presents well for its age and mileage, with general signs of use and modest wear to both seats. There are also minor scuffs on the leather-wrapped centre console.
• Small scratches are present on the steering wheel, and the grille for the driver’s-side speaker has become detached.
• There are no known electrical or mechanical faults with the car, and while one of its keys separates into two pieces, it still works as it should.
• The car’s last MOT test was conducted on 19 December 2020 at 60,444 miles, resulting in a first-time pass with no warnings or advisories.

SERVICE HISTORY

• This Gallardo’s most recent routine maintenance was a general service, which was carried out in January 2021 at 60,481 miles by performance car specialist BHP.
• Prior to this, BHP serviced the car in December 2018 at 58,981 miles, and in December 2017 at 57,860 miles.
• In 2014, the engine was given a full rebuild with new heads and valves plus an exhaust de-cat by BHP. Two months later, the gearbox rebuild was carried out in-house at Vision Motorsport. In September 2015, the clutch was renewed.
