I saw a Lamborghini Huracan in The Weir, in Hessle. The noise was amazing. Once he drove off, you could tell exactly which roads he left town on, even though he was a mile away, and several buildings were between us.
I was going to take a photo, but the man was handsome, and I got nervous. (Joke from last night's Family Guy, except it was about an ice cream).

Too bad that the amazing noise comes from a plebeian Audi engine.

They started a Lambo up at the Cottesloe Car Show this weekend just gone. It was quite something!

It's a bit like saying Morgans are just badged Fords - it ignores the tremendous manufacturing skills. It's a cheap shot to be honest - these cars are not merely 'badged', they take best of breed engines, often re-engineer them to suit the car. Lambo factory tour here: https://youtu.be/NbGvTYvoBjw

I'd love to see around the factory... But, any Lambo post Muira does little for me...

I've yet to hear a Lambo engine that doesn't stir the soul - they are aural heaven along with most Astons under pressure.
Equally I have yet to hear a Lotus that stirs anything but coffee quite frankly. Some are Toyota based power units I believe.
