I've just spent a week in Dubai with a group of friends driving. I have always fancied a Lamborghini one day so hired a 2017 Lamborghini Huracan LP610-4 Spider (I think they need to shorten the name!!). Anyway the car performed faultlessly and was pretty much an even match in all areas to my Turbo on paper, with the exception of practically. The driving experience was very different as the engine needed to be redlined to perform and the twin clutch box was lightening fast, neither of these items I preferred to the low down torque or manual box in my turbo. The 4wd, ceramic breaks, suspension balance and cornering/ straight line speed were almost identical.
Whilst I had an amazing time and would highly recommend driving the Jebel Jas road, it's the best I've ever driven!

I'm now home just thinking how I could ever justify spending 4 times more than the turbo's value to get something that is only just an equal? Just goes to show how amazing theses turbo's are even at 11 years old. With a few performance encancements and regular maintenance they are a match for the modern supercar crop at a fraction of the cost.
