SUMMARY
More power, less weight and lashings of carbon.... the Superleggera!
DESCRIPTION
Delivered new in 2007 in left-hand drive through Lamborghini Dubai
One of only 618 Superleggera models produced worldwide - lightened and more powerful
Main dealer serviced in Dubai with a marque specialist service in the UK in October '18
Supplied with a UK V5c, all the manuals, and showing 34,200km
Launched in 2003 (with production ending in 2013) and with the help of parent company Audi, the Gallardo became the most usable and reliable model to ever leave the Sant'Agata factory - not to mention the most successful, with a total of 14,022 examples produced. Named after a famous breed of fighting bull, the V10-powered Gallardo was Lamborghini's stable-mate to a succession of V12 flagship models. It was a landmark model too, the first genuinely all-new car to be made by Sant'Agata under Audi ownership and also marked a return for the firm to making a more affordable, usable super sports car, something it hadn't done since the Jalpa went out of production in 1988.
The Gallardo has a light but stiff aluminium spaceframe, aluminium panels, and a mid-mounted 5.0-litre V10 powering all four wheels on demand through a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed 'E-gear' paddle-shift auto. In 2007, at the Geneva Motor Show, Lamborghini unveiled a lightened and more powerful version of the model named the Gallardo Superleggera (Superlight). With the use of carbon fibre, 100kg was saved and an improved intake, exhaust, and ECU meant total power output was increased to 530 bhp. The 6-speed E-Gear transmission was standard with 6-speed manual transmissions also being offered at no extra cost. In total, only 618 Superleggera models were produced making them rare and desirable.
Offered here is a left-hand drive 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera E-Gear delivered new through Lamborghini Main Dealer, Al Jaziri Motors of Dubai, U.A.E. Finished in Metallic Yellow Giallo Midas with a black Alcantara interior with yellow stitching, the car was also fitted with a reverse camera and lift gear. Being a Superleggera model, it is fitted with a carbon spoiler, side skirts, diffuser, wing mirrors, door cards, centre console, steering wheel bottom, and bucket seats. Maintenance carried out whilst in Dubai was always undertaken at a Lamborghini Main dealer, including the clutch which was replaced when the car had covered 26,000 km. Since arriving in the U.K and being registered with the DVLA to obtain its first UK V5c, the car was serviced in October '18 at which point it had reached 34,146km, equivalent to 21,200 miles.Supplied with both sets of keys, its Lamborghini book pack, a UK V5c, and its service history including some invoices, this rare Gallardo is in fine condition and is now ready to find a new home.
