A Lamborghini Legend is about to cross the block.
Broad Arrow Auctions is currently preparing for one of its most anticipated sales, its Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este auction, set gainst a stunning backdrop of the iconic automotive venue at a historic location against the glittering Italian waters of Lake Como. Along with the stunning concours event, the auction is set to feature some incredible vehicles crossing the block, like a legendary 2003 Honda NSX-R, a gem of Japanese performance engineering, a 2022 Lamborghini Coutnach LPI 800-4, the recreation of a supercar legend, and a 2023 Ford GT, an homage to a racing hero.
However, one of the biggest highlights of the upcoming auction is of a special Lamborghini Diablo. A 2000 Lamborghini Diablo VT 6.0, the car is not only a stunning example of a modern classic supercar, but it is the very first Diablo VT 6.0 to leave Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata Bolognese assembly line. An early example of Lamborghini’s signature combination of V12 power and all-wheel drive, the Diablo VT 6.0 was a groundbreaking supercar at the dawn of the 21st century. Setting it apart from other Diablos are features like a design evolved by Luc Donckerwolke from the original Marcello Gandini design, and the pop-up headlights being replaced by fixed units.
The incredible historic Lamborghini crossing the block at the Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este from Broad Arrow Auctions is the opportunity both to own a stunning modern classic supercar, and to have a representation of a turning point in Lamborghini’s rich and celebrated history of over 60 years, which is especially poignant today as Lamborghini begins a journey of electrification, entering a new era of incredibly powerful hybrid supercars that are changing the automotive industry in the way that the Diablo VT 6.0 did in the year 2000.
