Along came a spyder: Eyrewell Forest Motor Company
The revs climb and your immediate surroundings are engulfed by a raging torrent of V10 symphonic bliss.
You are pinned back in those flamboyant orange leather seats as the horizon comes to you ever faster.
With the wind racing through your hair, you reach a stratospheric 8000rpm and that aforementioned 500hp ten-cylinder engine emitting the kind of primeval bellow which could wake the dead. You then shift into the next gear via the E-gear transmission and the process begins all over again.
This is a snippet of what it’s like to drive a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder, though you probably haven’t seen one like this before.
Offered for sale by Andrew Farrow of Eyrewell Forest Motor Company, this iconic supercar’s bright blue and orange Gulf Oil livery and racing decals make it probably one of the most epic looking Lamborghinis in New Zealand.
Whoever snaps this topless Gallardo up does have the option of keeping or removing the decals, but either way, you will be laughing your socks off as you head down through the gears with that V10 sinuously blipping the throttle with each change. Plus, thanks to its AWD system, you will be devouring corners at scarcely believable speeds.
Make no mistake, this baby raging bull is epic. Fact.
