Thanks Ash. I really enjoyed that. I especially liked the silver Lambo.

well, here's that Murcielago in an odd shot... i managed to get a shot *through* the open doors of the Lambo at a guy urinating as we went past at about 250kph in a 360 Spider.... just after being overtaken by a Challenge Stradale giving it the hammer (awesome noise!)

Great Stuff!

Stuart Appleby, One of your countrymen is a good friend of mine and he has a Gallardo here in Florida as well as a Ford GT, Right now he is in OZ with his family and is building a "UTE" out of an M5 I am going to forward this to him!

I love the Dino. Looks like the Elise got a lot of its design cues from that car.

we celebrated Australia Day long-weekend by flying the aussie colours... in Lamborghinis!

the slime-green missile is a 1974 Lamborghini Urraco P250 which has just undergone a complete nut-n-bolt restoration, it's now in better condition than it left Sant'Agata over 30 years ago, a truly great machine.

also rans include a Lamborghini Gallardo SE, Porsche 356 Cabriolet, Honda NSX, and Renault Gordini.

for the full story and loads more pics, clicky ----> http://aussieexotics.com/2007/01/28/...borghini-style

awesome run today, covered 400km of great roads. tearing up the serenity of the SA sunday country dawn with the bark of an abundance of Italian and German horses resonating over the hills. breakfast out at Blanchetown, and lots of thumbs up from passing enthusiasts.

here's a few happy snaps. full gallery here ----> http://gallery.aussieexotics.com/gallery/2511373

last Sunday the Lamborghini Club of SA had it's first Running of the Bulls, seven cars participated - which is about 50% of the *driven* Lamborghinis in Adelaide. it was more just a get-together and drive thing, we didn't stop anywhere picturesque to get any pretty pics, but hopefully what we got is good enough... until next time!

main page which will be updated with any additional content (more vids to come... tunnels!! )
