The New Gallardo LP550-2 Valentino Balboni

‘Let’s Take A Ride .....' Valentino Balboni quoted,

The New Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 - Valentino Balboni is causing a stir ….., a car dedicated to Lamborghini’s chief test driver, the legend who is Valentino Balboni.

Test Driver

Valentino started his career with Lamborghini on the 21st April 1967, straight away Ferruccio Lamborghini recognised a certain gift that this man possessed, to be able to drive himself and a car to it’s absolute limit !!  With a career now spanning over 40 years Valentino is a true ambassador to the Raging Bull that is Lamborghini.

A Limited Edition

Only 250 will be built for worldwidesales, this car has a mix of features of all the Lamborghini’s Valentino has driven throughout his career.  The powerful V10 5.2 litre engine, 0-62mph in 3.9 seconds, a top speed of 199mph with a 6 speed gearbox and with rear wheel drive makes this Gallardo a very demanding car even amongst the most skilled of drivers.

It comes in 8 colour combinations featuring a unique white-gold stripe to honour the classic 60’s and 70’s car era. 

We will be getting our first ‘Balboni’ in October and sidewards action will ensue !!  These already sort after Gallardo’s are now available to order.
