Espada thread

After much searching, I was directed to Rene of www.partscollector.com and he still had a couple of r/h drive lights. Yay! sorted

Thanks All

Lynne

 

be very carefull when dealing with Rene . Better still walk away now!!!!!!!!!!there is a chance he will drag out your purchase for months and insist you pay bank fees on top of bank fees > this guy was a F-------- horror story when i bought some mirrors from him then i wrote the whole story in hopes of protecting future buyers from him!
even if you pay more elsewhere and i highly doubt it given his stupid prices , i still urge you not to endure the BS that he will inflict when it comes to payment ! doesn't take paypal or visa you have to pay his bank via wire transfer and then wait for him to tell you how much they took off and then pay him again the bank fees to which the will deduct fees off the fees . its a FU--------- nightmare trust me dude walk away!!!!

I know him personally, if you need something let me know.

 

I expect that some may not like what Gary just did but I for one think that's one of the great benefits of forums like this. Gary is a very enthusiastic car guy and he's not scared off easily by the scope of an Espada restoration project. Translation, he's willing to pay more than fair prices if he has to in order to get the job done. So if he's warning you about this guy I'd listen to him. I've heard other people grumble about him on another forum as well. I don't know what the problem with this guy is but I've suffered a similar experience with a parts seller in Austria. In the end all of my money went for bank fees and Ebay was useless. He's still got $180 of my money and he's still on Ebay.

I say hold them accountable.

 

to the gent that knows him.... no offence but do you have to know someone to get good service??

Didn't know Jacques at maserati source got great service! didnt know Gary Bobileff got great service.

The only one Lamborghini presented at RETROMOBILE - Paris, I don't know the auction result, all I can tell it didn't worth more than 28.000 € to me :
* engine bay needs full attention
* lots of rust under coat/paint
* engine and all mechanical iems need a full check and/or overhaul

but interior was original & in very good shape !!!

Hi Olivier,
was a pleasure to see you again and talk about Lamborghini. I finally could see it on ground floor one hour before the auction.

Yes it was nice meeting you again.
For our folks, this green one was sold by Artcurial for 61.000 € + commissions and the silver one sold by Bonhams yesterday night was sold for 40.000 € + commissions...

 

That's a lot if it's a car as described by you as not in such great condition.
Any idea why someone paid so much?

 

hey Bob where do you think ours will go when we get board of em?

3 people were fighting to have it due to its history apparently and its original conditions...

 

Since when did only s1s have knocks ?
Git yer sh.. Straight ebay dude

Gary

 

Clearly to millionaires Doc!

 

Yes, you are right but everybody knew it wasn't its original color... the paint was to recent and the expertise mentionned it too.

 

What was so special about it's history?
Because this is a lot of money for one over here. I don't think one has ever sold for that much here. Especially in such dodgy condition.

 

I really like it but not at the 31k that it is now.

 

has a feature on what to buy now as they feel they are on the rise soon

Poor Espada.

Anyone know the history of this one?

http://www.artandrevs.com/lamborghini-espada-s2/en/pr-53-1

 

Since last 27th December, I'm inquiring about this car VIN #75454.
Florent Moulin still hasn't prove me that it had belonged one day to Tonino Lamborghini as he suggests in his advertising.
He was explaining Lambo Kremer in Germany can document about its story.
For weeks, I'm waiting him to come back to me.
The facts now : it has a non original paint and a different leather color !!!

 

Just looking at the rather limited pictures and you can see the signs of an insensitive, hasty and cheap "refreshing". There are much better "looking" examples out there for the same or less money.

 

Bye Bye...off to the UK!!

Sad to see this such perfect Espada leave the country...

These are the first pictures of our car with the engine back in. The guys doing the restoration fired it up for us and it was the first time in over 26 years that it had been started, cant wait for it to be finished. The dashboard is being anodized so it still looks like spaghetti junction!
