Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 (2013) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 26 April 2013 11:00

Lamborghini may be blowing out 50th birthday candles, but you won’t hear it crowing on about another anniversary: that the Gallardo turns ten this year too. That’s a long time in this business, especially when the Ferrari 458/McLaren 12C firefight has left the Gallardo almost completely out of the spotlight of late. The latest facelift won’t alter that, but it ...

Lamborghini Aventador Roadster (2013) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton (photography by Greg Pajo), 12 April 2013 13:00

This is the 2013 Lamborghini Aventador Roadster. For almost £300k, you get a 691bhp V12, 217mph performance, and the most head-turning looks of any car this side of a Pagani Huayra. But is it a true driver's car underneath the pantomime. Read on for the definitve CAR verdict. Can the Lamborghini Aventador Roadster justify its huge £300k price tag? You ...

Lamborghini Aventador supercar (2011) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 04 May 2011 17:30

Lamborghini’s new 691bhp/219mph/£247k Aventador supercar might look like a facelifted Murcielago, but it’s a radically different beast under the skin – and on the road. So what’s new on the new Lamborghini Aventador? The lot. The old Murcielago had some composite body panels but its chassis was a stack of old tubes that happened to stick together, just like the Diablo and ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman, 27 December 2010 09:00

This is the (deep breath) Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Spyder Performante. Think of it as a drop-top version of the Gallardo Superleggera, with the same weight-saving measures and the same 562bhp V10 engine. And with the Murcielago now dead, it’s the most expensive Lamborghini currently on sale. Read on for CAR’s first drive review of the new Lamborghini Performante. How do ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera (2010) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 06 August 2010 10:00

This is the Superleggera for short, or in full, the Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera, which sounds great when spoken quickly in Italian. Goes quickly too, thanks to a 562bhp V10 and a 1340kg kerbweight; do the maths and that’s 419bhp/tonne. Think of the Superleggera as Lamborghini’s response to the threat of RS Porsches (GT3 and GT2), a pre-emptive strike against ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 13 August 2009 16:10

Because the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 isn't quite enough for everyone, there's now a less-is-more version. With no front driveshaft and all the power from the 5.2-litre V10 going to the rear wheels, this is the limited edition LP550-2 Valentino Balboni, and a chance to help shift a few more cars, deflect attention from the new Ferrari 458 Italia, and finally ...

Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Chris Chilton, 01 May 2009 17:30

If you’re one of those twisted souls who thinks Lamborghini’s scissor door-ed 631bhp V12 Murcielago wasn’t quite mad enough, this lighter, more powerful and carbon-clad limited edition SV (that's Super Veloce) just might do it for you. You can read our full first drive review of the new Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 Sport Veloce in the new June 2009 issue of ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Nick Trott, 02 April 2009 09:57

Road tests on supercars like Lamborghini’s LP560-4 Spyder are hard to write. Please don’t shed a tear for the jammy road-tester; all I’m saying is that when cars are this seductive they tend to render your objectivity gland inactive. Let’s face it; the revised Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder costs way more than most of us can afford, for some it’s offensively ...

Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 (2008) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Chris Chilton, 13 May 2008 09:06

The first baby Lambo to crack 200mph is far from all-new, but the Gallardo LP560-4 has more to offer over the old car than simply a front bumper that looks like it was pinched from a Ferrari Enzo. More powerful than even the now-dead Superleggera, it’s also significantly more economical and less polluting too. First of all, what does LP560-4 ...

Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera (2007) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Georg Kacher, 23 March 2007 09:56

What's so special about this evil-looking bit of kit? It's a harder, faster and lighter Lamborghini Gallardo, a kind of pre-emptive strike against the Ferrari F430 Challenge Stradale due for launch next year. Shorn of its hi-fi and fitted with thinner glass and more carbonfibre and less metal, the Superleggera weighs 1330kg, a soild 100kg less than the standard Gallardo. ...
