He should do it with something rare, like a standard Corsa GSi. Then drive it into a wall.

Jon and Harry Hunt. Jon Hunt used to own Foxtons Estate Agents and made £360 million selling it, he is also known for wanting to build a multi-story underground car museum under one of his properties:

Yes what I heard as it goes. Nice 10 grand made from the Enzo video to boot. Cool videos, though, nice idea. Was always going to get shit loads of views!

The 288 (like the 959) was homologated for track use though Ed.

Dunno about anybody else Nic, but I hate the fact that they are using irreplaceable cars to do what they should be doing in a tractor or a Land Rover, or a rally car, or an old banger.

To my mind, whoever is responsible, is behaving much like an even richer Mikey Carroll. And in some respects, worse.

The Rolls Royce wasn't so bad, because that's a brand new car that can still be bought now and probably will be for years to come, so once ruined, is easily replaced.
To that end, they could be using 360s, 430s and Gallardos etc all day long, as they are contemporary, not particularly attractive and easily replaced. Plus the Gallardo isn't even a proper Lamborghini anymore.

But to take precious cars that went out of production a quarter of a century or more ago and that were made at most, in their hundreds instead of thousands, with the expressed intention for track or fast road use. And misuse them in this fashion, is just not on in my book.

It's just abusing and vandalising history.

I mean, you wouldn't use the Mona Lisa as a chopping board would you?

If he took them out on track, or to a stretch of B road, or quiet motorway in the dead of night, or an Autobahn in broad daylight and maxxed them out as was intended, that would be lovely.

In my opinion, what's being done to these cars is plain destructive and in bad taste though Nic.
