Smile Is this for real?!?!?!??!

Anyone have the latest Unique Cars magazine?

If so have a look at the top of page 41......

I guarantee that you will !!!!!!!!

Unless I am missing something :togo:

I will give you a hint it is an advert for a peugeot.

I don't want to ruin the surprise by trying to describe the ad, however if I can be bothered I may try to type it up here....

Im afraid its no joke, looks real enough.

Sadly alot of cash would have been spent on it.

I had a quick look on uniquecarsales.com.au and couldn't find it.

Although when searching for Lamborghini I did find this:

http://www.uniquecarsales.com.au/pls...ucategory_id=3

Simply Stunning.

Yeah very nice, your cheating though its a real one, I guess the peugoet is one tenth the price so it might be worth it if only it were one tenth as good... its not probably more reliable though lol.

I saw a website the other day actually that biulds good looking lambo replicas in WA,

http://supercars.net.au/

In America they are crazy for the replicas.

Just think the site above does turnkey diablos from $75,000, thats an alternate to the GTP right there! lol maybe not quite as good a daily driven car....

I think I just hijacked my own thread, I always do that.. : :togo:

That looks almost like the real thing? It looks like a Pug, only gayer.

2 fart cannons and 'authentic signage' makes it look more like a million yen. That thing is hideous. I hope by slightly negotiable they mean willing to accept 15% of listed offer.

Well said, my thoughts exactly.

Two fart cannons does not a Lamborghini make!

I’d really love to buy this baby Lambo… and be the envy of all the schoolgirls around my area. I could put a Dolly magazine sticker on the front door in the bottom corner like the ricers and a Justin Timberlake sticker across the windscreen… wow.

However, I can’t afford it at the moment as I’m planning to spend $57,000 on this mechanical work of art, just as long as no one beats me to it. :hihi:
