Lamborghini Gallardo Review

Posted: Feb 06, 2010 |Comments: 0 | Share Syndicate this Article Copy to clipboard

The Lamborghini Gallardo was named after a line of famous bulls. After the takeover of the company by Audi the cars were still high performance cars but now they were user friendly. The cost of the car is around the same as 18 Honda Jazz's but if you are wanting to know how much this car is then this car is probably not for you.

It has Audi's switch gear and all grouped logically together. It has 6 speed transmission paddle shift similar to the ones in Maserati's and Ferrari's. The body shape is more chiselled and more defined. Overall it is a much more practical car than it's Lamborghini predecessors. It even has normal doors. If you wanted to you could use this car as an everyday car. The car is 4 wheel drive and it needs it to be as there is so much power it needs to ensure all 4 wheels are glued to the floor.

When you take the car on the track your first thought maybe to get the traction control off but you can really drive this with all the control aids on and still have a great time. It provides blistering performance as well as great handling, a 5 litre V10 engine and very grippy brakes. There is also a convertible version called the Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder and this really brings the lunacy back. The Gallardo was a high performance car but it was practical and sensible. This version is still practical and is meant to be quiet at low speeds.The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn
