This car right here is believed to be the very last Lamborghini to leave the Sant’Agata factory before VW fully took over the brand.
So in a sense, this really is the last “raw” Lamborghini ever made, which means that car collectors from all over the world might want to hurry up and snag this thing for anywhere between £150,000 and £170,000.
Sure, the price is really high, but lesser cars have went for far more money in the past. Remember this Limited Edition Mustang? All it had going for it were subtle chrome surrounds, louvered rear quarter window, aluminum trim and a special badge.
This, however, is a Lamborghini Diablo SV, and seen as how it’s got only 32,000 miles (51,499) on it, you could probably say it’s as good as…almost new? To be fair, that’s plenty of mileage for a supercar, and it did undergo a chassis and suspension restoration back in 2013, which cost over £10,000. Then, a full geometry set-up was carried out by Grimaldi Engineering before the car was serviced and MoT’d last month.
Nick Whale, managing director at Silverstone Auctions said “It’s a delight to be able to offer this fantastic part of Lamborghini history in the year of the 100th anniversary of the birth of the company’s founder, Ferruccio Lamborghini. The Diablo is a wonderful car that truly represents everything the marque is famous for.”
The people who assessed the car also believe that the color scheme may be a one-off due to the Pearl Red/Orange combined with a gray/black leather/alcantara interior. The Diablo also comes with its original tire inflator and a custom-made fleece-lined indoor car cover which features an embroidered Lamborghini logo.
