    You can actually see one of the (possibly factory) Diablo SE30 Jotas in the background there. Thats awesome.

    What looks like 2 SE30 Jotas (purple & possibly black) could be SVs. The yellow SE30 in the last photo looks like it hasn't got the small side windows and has a rather large badge in the window behind the door, haven't seen that before. Great to see those photos.

    If that car is supposedly a 35 Anniversary it should date it to 1999. The photo is supposed to be 1996 or 1997, so highly unlikely. Maybe the rear wing was removed for repair or something. Without other photos, maybe we'll never know!

    Ahhh... ok, I was hoping I'd get to see an SE30 in that color... would be an incredible combo to have the silver blue exterior with the blue alcantara interior...

    Love to see one in the sliver/blue exterior though, would instantly be my new top choice...

    Recently I came across an interesting number from Lamborghini itself that said 157 SE were made (See the magazine "the collection" by Stefano Pasini)

    More than I expected. 150 cars were numbered, and then there were several prototypes but 7 seems quite a lot.

    Another picture from the factory

    Guys, do you know what's the value of a decent condition, RHD purple SE30 now? Been offered one in SE Asia. Thanks.

    I don't have the VIN no. yet.

    I know of a RHD black SE30 for sale with an asking price of £100K. Unfortunately it's had aftermarket bits added and I guess a lot of purists would be put off by that. It has been for sale for a long time, so it's fair to assume that the asking price is a bit high considering the changes to the bodywork. I reckon purple is the most desirable colour, but condition is everything, and of course mileage.

    Would like to know more about the car if you get any more info.

    He's looking @ 145K pounds! Cars are heavily taxed in this part of the world but I can import them from UK which might end up for about the same but usually less then "local" cars.

    I'll try to find some time & visit the car. It has the usual blue alcantara cabin.

    That's a lot for a SE, unless it is a perfect car with few kms. I don't know what prices are like in south-east asia though. Color should not really be of influence on the asking price. Most SE, over 1/3, were purple. If you are looking for a good SE in Asia, there are many nice ones for sale in Japan at the moment. However, they are all LHD. Finding a RHD car is difficult, especially if you are looking for a specific color, condition, etc.

    Thanks mate.

    This is car #71/150. One owner's car but a garage queen with just over a thousand km but odometer stopped @ some time ;) Owner has over 30 cars & hardly drove this. Condition is not fantastic, paint work & cabin is fine but I suspect the usual work to re-commission it plus seals etc. Cars are generally not well taken care of over here as they don't have the expertise & parts so most jobs were short-cuts. Glass has also began to de-laminate. He wouldn't move on the price.....

    I could import a LHD. Do you have links to the Japan cars?

    Noticed that the purple SE30 Jota in the US is down to £116K, making the £145K for the SE30 look very high, especially as it would appear to need a lot of work to get it into a good condition.

    This car looks fantastic and in the RHD configuration. Are you located in Malaysia? If you do not move forward in purchasing this car, can you PM me contact information of the owner? At today's exchange rates, 145K pounds equates to 225K dollars (us). IMO, the asking price is not unreasonable given the mileage less the cost of service campaigns to bring this car to driving status.

    Hey Roy, I have serious thoughts about your car! Problem is I can't drive in on Singapore roads & maybe on Malaysian roads but heavily taxed. My only option is to have it in under racing license then parked @ home for trackdays only which is a shame though I don't mind the furniture idea :D

    Not sure if you're open to keeping it for a year while I'm building my home & I park half the money with u. U can use it like your own :)

    Hey Chris, I'll PM u on the contact. It's in Malaysia but buyer won't move on the price, we've tried. The cabin is fine & alcantara looks new but it's the piping bits that worries me as they look to have old leaks & may have ECU issue as the compartment was opened. Rear right wheel has a kerb mark & 3" fender scratch done by a workshop recently! :( otherwise, the paint work is fine.

    Car was left on a tax-free island for 7 years to reduce tax so expect some corrosion if any. The metal on the front fog lamps look bad.

    If the car has hardly been driven in the last 7 years or more, would there be any worries about the engine, brakes, gearbox etc?
