Well it is Lamborghini, so everything's flambéed, alive.

DNQ, DNS, DNF, lol...
Yours for four hours, at the low, low price of $35,000 or $8,750 an hour. Granted, you do get free food...
In Soviet Russia...
Amazing...
Travis have you been reading the German magazine Curves : Soulful Driving by any chance?
It looks like you two hit every awesome road in the latest issue...
Killarney Race Track, Cape Town, great little place.
All good, but I just want to add, field of view. The prospect of endangering someone else is too much, so a great road with blind turns everywhere is just no good.
The Top Gear Romania guys told me that The Trans Transfăgărășan Highway is rubbish, rutted and full of potholes for most of the year. Then they fill it in cheaply, and it's all ruts and holes again after a month. Nobody goes driving there apparently. They all just skip over to Hungary.
Yeah I'm really missing something then...
Yes there is a Hertfordshire north of London. But they did the whole F12 shoot much further north in Scotland. 40 miles out of Dundee... No idea why they did that.
Am I missing something? In the F12 bit JC says he's 40 miles outside of London in Hertfordshire, when it's more like 540 miles, in Northern Scotland...
Lada Samara
Looks like they are below Franschhoek Pass, the greatest driving road in South africa:

Just a few days ago I asked Alex Fiorio, Cesare Fiorio's son, how he feels when he sees a Grand Voyager with Lancia badges pick him up. He looked at me, then nothing, nothing... Almost shed a tear. I'm sure he would gladly see Alfa go to VW, Toyota, Geely, Chong Wong Dong, anything, anything but Fiat.
Please yes Alfa. Why not? Fiat's been the worst thing that ever happened to Alfa. Fuck Fiat, for killing Alfa, for raping Lancia... It irritated me when they went at VW for hinting about buying Alfa, all that nonsense "this is a storied Italian brand, and it must stay Italian."
It must stay the hell away from Fiat is…
Yeah of course, but when he's back home he's forever leaving his car running, it's a habit I guess, is what I said.
Habit? It's a hundred and million degrees in Dubai right now, and we're all leaving our cars (air conditioning) running...
The end
I always call back, because although most of the time it's not actually about selling the car, a lot of the time it turns out great because the guy who left his number could be a fellow owner of the same type of vehicle, widen your network of parts contacts, etc... Call back, it's just common courtesy.
Michael, you're being as pompous as this piece of shit car.
"The Countach was any different?"
Yes, and from your question I presume you've never seen the original. So go away and look at a picture of Gandini's original design and notice how beautifully simple and daring that car was. Not daring, as in retarded. Daring,…
