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.
Loving this thread ! Here's a pic of mine taken during a factory visit 2007: Image Unavailable, Please Login
My Monterey Edition SV (also 4 sale) And a old video of Mario Andretti in the driver seat: http://youtu.be/QJACgQfP3a8 Image Unavailable, Please Login
The 1995 factory SV's, which can be found in the press releases. I really like these configurations; does anyone have the PPG codes? Image Unavailable, Please Login
Impact white: LAMBOR-231023 - PPG code : 231023 Blu Le Mans: LAMBOR-62900 - PPG code : 62900 for "giallo" i´m not 100% sure, maybe it´s LAMBOR-21040 - PPG code : 21040
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.
In earlier Diablos (MY1991-1997,5) they used to have black tool kit bags. In 1998 production they started with beige tool kit bags. Between MY1998 and MY1999 tool kits are also differences. The tool kits of MY1998 cars are from USAG (red tool kit) and on MY1999 dark blue with yellow piping with Lamborghini badge. In 6.0 Diablos they switched the dark blue to black.

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 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
After checking several wheels i know that the "OZ Racing" sticker is always on the opposite side of the tire valve. The "SV" sticker is located one spoke right to the "OZ Racing" sticker. As an example, you see XLA12156 which seems to be very original. I reproduced both stickers, so if any owner need some i would be happy to help out.

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.
