    I have the 1995c brochure which features my ex-car(Forbes Diablo) which was not a VT.

    This is actually not correct. The lighting might make it look like it is light green, but it is a RHD Diablo VT which Lamborghini used as a factory demonstration car

    I got it this book, definitively cheaper that original brochures currently being sold by 'making big easy money' sellers.

    My father (he's still alive and kicking, almost 82) used to be in the hydraulic heavy (earth moving) equipment business. He dealt with many Italian manufacturing companies.
    The foreign sales manager of one of those companies (called 'Carlo Pesci' - the company) was a personal friend of Ferrucccio. My father likes to add (with a wink of the eye) that this sales manager's wife was an even closer and more personal friend of Ferruccio :)
    Anyways that's how Ferruccio and my father met, and they got along really well, they never did business together, but on several occasions had dinner, and supposedly one day Ferrucio offered him exclusive import rights (of everything he produced, including the cars) for the Benelux. My father didn't see any money in that offer, and I guess he saw it right at that time. That's the context in which my father got that leaflet. They remained friends until Ferruccio's death, btw.
