Still on the lookout for a Diablo car cover...

Wolfgang pointed me to this one:

http://www.please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors.com/product.asp?prid=22232

 

Seems to me there is no such thing as a universal fitting cover for ALL models. (will it fit G / Murci / Diablo / Countach.....? :shock: )

Just sent LS a message to inquire.

 

Basically what I want is a black cover with enough room in the back to fit the 6.0 and the factory wing....

Any thoughts....? Lambo Part number ?

 

I must say that original cover looks pretty good compared to some aftermarket stuff !!

One of my friends recently traced back some scratch marks on his car to a sharp seam of his cheapo 80US$ cover... :eusa_wall:

I got a custom made one from Griot's for my Countach. I was a bit apprehensive at first but when placing the order they asked all the right questions. (Does it have US bumpers, does it have the wing, etc) Initially they screwed up something and it took forever to come in but when it did I was pleasantly surprised. Great quality and fits like a glove. I'm about to order a Diablo cover from them right now.

What do you think if we had a group buy from them.

Or if we could find a place that had a good quality cover, and have a group buy from there.

I think if there are a number of us then we may get a good deal on the purchase.

The reason i mention this is because over on the viper forum they do that and get good deals on a certain items.

 

Just a thought

Dear Lamborghinisti,

 

I have a black Diablo cover with room for the wing. It has a large "Diablo" script on the front. I just have it folded up in the closet. I drive my roadster (before the header issue I'm working on) as a daily driver, so I never use it.

 

I'll take the best offer for it. Yes, it's like new condition.....ummm, because I never use it. :D

I have a brand new black cover with bag I bought for my 99 alpine addition with wing. Paid 550 for it through the dealer

and will take 350 plus shipping.

I got a red one, but it's not cheap. Ferrari charges $750 for theirs..$$!

 

Red cover on a black car is OK.... wouldn't do that to my orange 6.0....

Dear Lamborghinisti,

 

I think my Diablo cover is OEM. I think it originally came with the car. My roadster is a 97.5 and the cover has a hand written date label of 04/97.

 

The cover is a smooth "marino-wool-like" exterior with a soft felt-like interior.

 

Black ext. and black int.

 

Here are some photos.

 

I'll take a roadster header ( cyl 7-9) in trade :D

....also, notice the way the date is written.

 

Definately european handwriting....the crossed seven.....and what looks like a 7 is a 1 :)

 

 

If Adam's is 750...wow!

 

I was thinking about $ 250 + shipping

 

I'm not trying to make any money here, I would just rather pass it on to someone who can use it.

 

I'll still take that tall thin blonde ! :D

Is this a rotating thread or something .... ? :icon_mrgreen:

 

That's the same link I started this topic with !! :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

 

Problem is that even please check with our franchised lamborghini dealer sponsors can't tell me for sure if this will fit a 6.0 with factory wing.

They replied to my inquiry stating that the 6.0 cover is no longer available but they do have some covers for SV and other Diablo's... I guess the dimensions for the various Diablo models are very similar so I can just pick one with wing pocket.
