The Gallardo is celebrating its 20th birthday - time to find the best of the bunch.
It’s 2003. Lamborghini is five years into Audi ownership and has already introduced a new V12 flagship in the form of the Murcielago, following on from the vastly improved. Though the performance car market was thriving at the time – and a global recession was still a long way over the horizon - the Italian marque knew it needed a more attainable model to help fund its twelve-cylinder halo car and keep its new owners off its back. The result was, of course, the V10-powered Gallardo.
It’s not hard to see why the Gallardo was such a success. A mid-mounted naturally aspirated V10 with 500hp in launch spec, a manual gearbox and all-wheel drive for the grand sum of £120,000 was unheard of. Yes, the Ferrari 360 and F430 were arguably more driver-focused, but what set the Gallardo apart was its ability to deliver all the sensations and sounds of a supercar while offering a degree of usability.
