Probably roughly the same as any the car with a similar wheel size, it's the wheel, not the car that reflects the price range afterall
Yeah I noticed they're only 19's but the width of them looks massive!

Have either of you guys driven or passenger in one on UK roads? I am sure on a track it feels very compliant, but my experience on a road it was a very firm ride, the seats feel like they don’t have much cushion/padding to them.
Which is great as for an occasional weekend car but I think I’d be having weekly sessions at the chiropractor if it was a daily.
The R8 or 458 is much more comfortable to be in. Even the ride an aventador is more comfy.
I’m not disputing the gearbox and other aspects of the car. Purely how it feels being sat in it as your moving on the road. It’s obvious the DSG is superior to e-gear.
My R8 isn't comfy as normal R8's as it has fixed dampers.
My GT3 was a daily, 20K in 14 months and that would make the Lambo feel like an S Class.
It's a subjective thing, but you get used to it and put up with it if you're a petrol head who likes driving.

Try an R8 GT with the GT bucket seats and tell me you’d get used to it on a daily basis. So uncomfortable for anything longer than 15 mins.
If I had an R8 GT (I do have a soft spot for them) - swap them for RS4 Recaro style seats. I guess these are what you have and the difference in comfort is unbelievable.
I have and I had a GT3 with full buckets for 20K miles...
Fixed, upright and only moved forwards and backwards, that was it.

Lambos do smell good.

Kindai, you got an agreement going with some fine Arab gentlemen by the name of al-saud?
still seems a bit nuts. Trip computer on my E60 M5 never showed less than about 6mpg on trackdays / ring - cant see how you can get that to go much lower!!!

I love the smell of fat tyres in the morning
It seems I have sold at just the right time, in the last couple of weeks the bottom end of the GTR market has been groaning, and good cars around my age and mileage are swapping sub 30k. Can see early models swapping hands mid twenties by the end of the year now.

Funny you should say that, saw this the other day
@Gibbo needs to stop taking pictures of random supercars it seems.
Hey all!
Busy busy day
First off to see @ScoobyDoo69 and collect some GoPros
Next up, the gtr cartel boys wanted to have some fun, so we had a meet up and some dragy runs.
Anyone feel like the "Prey" is being eyed up
Contender! Go! Gladiator Go!
After that a trip up to ocuk to have a hoon with Gibbo
We found a tunnel...

Dragy runs you say.
Did you run yours?

Manchester airport tunnels, nice, still got no idea how these don't have averaging speed cameras in, especially after the slew of high speed footballer crashes.
