Somebody (footballer?) has enough money to buy a new Lamborghini
It is still in the showroom, with a discreet & ever so tactful SOLD sign in front of it
The doors (of the car, not the showroom) have been thrown open to allow us to admire ze leathaire – just on the tasteful side of scarlet (with a hint of plum)
Some of the models on display have been extraordinary citrus or lollipop colours, which you could get away with under a tropical, or possibly a Mediterranean, but never a Manchester sky
The bodywork of the newly sold one is good-taste cream with intimations of grey & cappuccino to tone it down. Is it also a touch metallic, or just VERY highly polished?
50 years ago I would have been pea green with envy. These days I just wonder how anyone can bend down far enough to get into it. And if by some miracle I did, I would be unable to rise again, unless it has ejector seats
And I certainly would not want to drive in it on roads which also carry HGVs, or even 4x4s
