There's going to be some mid-winter Lambo terrorization in Montreal this year when I get it back. Get your earplugs ready!

Goddamn. I had to look twice to notice that the wheel hub was still on there. How in the hell did he manage to crack ev-ry single spoke?!

Just out of curiosity, what kind of loaner did they put you in?

Glad its getting sorted out for you. Hopefully you'll be happy with the car when it's repaired. Must have been alot of mental anguish for you.

He took out the lamp post with that axle. The control arms bent. That whole rim was shattered, not just the spokes. Come to think of it I should have a closer look at that axle unless the movement was within the "play" of the shaft.

And uhm... I wasn't given a loaner.

Wow--I'm glad you're getting it fixed, but as much as I love my LP560, if my mechanic wrecked it--he would be the new owner of it!

Ya the refusal of a loaner was a bad sign of things to come...

According to witnesses, fast. Fast enough to spin, surf the curb with the entire car, take out a huge lamp post and keep on going to the other side of the median. Many people saw it because they heard the engine wailing as he was coming. In the picture the car is actually on the opposite side of the road that it was travelling, across 2 lanes in oncoming traffic, and the traffic lights fell the other way across 3 lanes. Good thing it wasn't a red with cars waiting at the light, would have fallen on up to 3 cars. Damn fortunate that no one else was hit as it is.
