    Yes, I'm quite sure that we're speaking of the same car here : originally delivered in Germany and now in France (from end of year 2012).
    2 picts of it during a LCF meeting + 2 picts during the 50th Grande Giro Anniversary Tour in May 2013.

    Great car, still in perfect condition today in 2015, generously driven by a real RWD enthusiast/pilot and always extremely carefully maintained in order it always offers its best driving potential !

    one of the last cars with the lamborghini script on the rear exhaust cover upper deck - the script and indent was deleted soon after XLA12200-ish, and the audi type curly Lamborghini script appears on the rear grill instead.

    I haven't played video games since a child, but does that bring back memories!

    I always remember picking the SV, also had a model of it too.

    The 1995 factory SV's, which can be found in the press releases. I really like these configurations; does anyone have the PPG codes?

    Information about original Alpine radios for MY99 Diablo SV:

    They used ALPINE 3DE-7886R (common in europe) and ALPINE 3DE-7887 (US) from factory. The amplifier models are MRV-F305 and MRP-F305.

    Very nice & well deserved thread. Thank you Lambodriver.

    I just collected my baby today in heavy rain with flash floods everywhere in Malaysia but she's registered in Singapore. She was subjected to an 8 months long engine-out job with a new clutch pack, valve adjustment, fuel tank flush & virtually all the pipes replaced. Oh! and a very expensive new ECU. :( Bill was about US$27K though.

    Recently, a mechanic from the old agent told me that she's the last SV to leave the factory which I suspected as the MYR is stated as 2000 on my logcard & it has non-SV meters+chairs so thought that she is a parts-bin car :D

    RHD, black on black & wingless. It shares many parts with Murcielago & the Lp670 airfilters drop right in.

    I'm applying for the factory archive report so let's hope they shed some light.

    Hi Jon,
    I know your car from pictures. Beautiful color and as i said previously i like wingless cars in dark colors!! Indeed you have a very late VIN, also visible on the late SV badge and the exhaust lid without Lamborghini script. Your interior looks more like a VT interior. VT Door panels,Roadster seats, VT center console.

    I would like to see some pictures during your service if you have some?
    I actually detailing my car during winter and i hope i have finished before spring!

    Regards,
    Leo

    Thanks Leo. I should have some pics but need to search & will post them up.

    Question. Do you guys know if the Lp640/Murcielago wheels is a direct fit to our Diablo?

    Otherwise will 245/35R18 fit our front as 235 will limit us to very old Pzero tyres. Thank you.

    I have air leaking from one of my split rim so would like to fit Hemera wheel & change tyres as well.

    245 is an approved tyre size for the Diablo according to the factory. It's even on the tyre sticker on the later Diablos.

    I have a 97.5 Diablo Roadster and I put on Murci 670 SV wheels. They were a direct fit and I have had no issues after 11,000km. I still have my awd hooked up.

    As it was stated before you can use Murcie/LP640 wheels without any problems!
    It would look good on your black car! But please keep your original wheels.
