Hammering a $300,000 Lamborghini!

**GTOX** · 03-17-2011, 04:42 AM

Saw this earlier today and thought it was quite funny. Have any of you ever thought about doing this to your 3S haha?

The businessman, who is an operator in the construction material market, paid mallet-wielding men to publicly destroy his second-hand Lamborghini Gallardo because he failed to get it to work properly.

The owner had several disputes with the auto company over maintenance issues after he claimed the engine was playing up, a month after he bought it.

The owner had reportedly taken the car to the dealer last November to have the engine malfunction fixed.

However, the garage failed to sort the problem and damaged the bumper and chassis in the process.

A crowd gathered to watch the luxury car being destroyed, which had been planned for World Consumer Rights Day.

Lamborghini is reportedly due to issue a statement regarding the incident.

Good on him haha, at least it was only a Gallardo and not a Murchielago

i'd charge like.. 500.00 a hit or something.. would someone here pay that to hit a lambo with a sledge hammer?! lol

on a side note, is it just me or do the Chinese soldier guys not have a swing with those hammers at all?

+rep for lambo.. they had a hand full of guys hitting that car with a sledge hammer and it really doesnt look that bad.. nothing a buff job can't fix..

but it really isnt that tore up..

I'm with Danube -- either those guys can't swing a hammer or that Lambo is made of solid effing steel.

There was a guy who eventually took a sawzall to his. In the process he also generated one of the best quotes ever:

Last night I was so mad at it, I took a shit in the back seat

IF I was going to destroy my $300,000 car, I would have done something that was much more interesting. Something along the lines of the Top Gear piano drop, but with a dump truck... Or a tank... or, well you get the idea.

Thermite the lambo. Now that would be an awesome end to the car.

Obviously these idiots can’t troubleshoot a car. The ringlands are broken so they need to tear it all apart and fix it properly. Maybe add a few more fuel pressure regulators and throttle bodies.
