I was at a car show a couple of weeks ago and a little boy was standing next to me looking at a Lamborghini. "Look Dad! A Lamb Bikini".

From the title I thought it was about the girl in Magaluf wanting a free holiday. I mean that was no class and she is a beast.
I can't see why a Lambo is referred to as a no class.
It is lovely, and it was a nice day to take it for a spin.

What for, you`d never take the damned thing off road. May as well get an economical runaround.

To be fair, if you're worried about economy, you're really not going to be buying either of those two sorts of vehicle

Plus they prove a useful when doing outdoor gigs such as when we did the Audio at a big event in the grounds of Knebworth...to be a Range Rover is a tool as much as it is a luxury car

Why would you want an economical runaround?
See what I did there
I just don't get these judgement regarding other peoples choices. Surely if anyone wanted an economical runabout that's what they would get.
Heck for most people I know their range rover, Mercedes, Audi, BMW 4x4 is their economical runabout
it's all relative.

Nope it doesn't go off road all the time, well not serious off road anyway...but nor is it a Tarmac queen...now if you want serious off roading that my brother in laws area, with his highly customised defender
That said its not normally that clean, if memory serves me correctly this was a few days after a wedding, always make sure it's clean when I'm going to be in polite company, so about once after decade

She must be doing something right......and I don't mean the dishes

Jokes aside though I do love to see super cars about, but I would never own one even if I had the money. I have far more satisfaction building cars that can thrash super cars but for half the price
My last project was an Audi RS2 avant that I got up to 700bhp+. It well and truely put the super cars in their place on the 1/4mile and 1/2mile drag strips, but not at top speed.
A mate of mine has a Mk2 escort that does a standing 1/4 in 14 seconds which is up there with the supercars
Spins the wheels in 3rd but even with all the mods declared he insures it FC for £140

Niiice, love a bit of Mk2 action. I have one myself and sold the Audi last year to help fund it. I'm in second thoughts whether to sell the mk2 or not. I built it for tarmac rallying but I just don't have the time to compete and plus my BMW turbo project is getting neglectedA mate of mine has a Mk2 escort that does a standing 1/4 in 14 seconds which is up there with the supercars

I only have the time and money to work on one of them.Jokes aside though I do love to see super cars about, but I would never own one even if I had the money. I have far more satisfaction building cars that can thrash super cars but for half the price

From vague recall it beats a Maclaren F1 in the 0-30 stakes as standard and you felt the need to tune one .......
I like cars like the RS2 and the original M5 for being Wolves in sheep's clothing I don't feel the need to own one but at least I could fit in one.
I was lucky enough to ride in a countach once. I was 20. My spine still rebels at the thought lol
Never been in any Lamborghini but a paint shop near me has had several Countach's in over the years as well as a Miura .
I have always felt the Miura beat the Countach on looks by a mile however in the words of the guy who runs the paint shop you wouldn't actually want to drive either of them.

I like to be different. The older Audis have a good rep for their performance but I just wanted to go that step further. Rather than people going "oh there's an RS2" when I took it to shows I wanted people to be more like "oh there's THAT RS2" lol. Not that it looked any different from any other RS2 though. I kept it looking standard apart from 20mm lower and bigger wheels to accommodate the bigger brakes.

Don't believe everything your mate says....14s maybe nice for a Mk2 Escort, but it honestly isn't up there at all...best loose another ~4s...A mate of mine has a Mk2 escort that does a standing 1/4 in 14 seconds which is up there with the supercars

You mention a thrash? Full screen and up the volume.
