Hey guys, I recently went to Lamborghini Factory and Museum at San't Agata Bolognese, Italy.
Here's a little update of my "showroom". blush.gif

Bought that book there, while all those 7 cars were a good bargain in Rome, Italy. Hehe
And hidden on the left of the Spyder, there's actually a piece of orange/red leather of the seat of Aventador, was given as gift during the factory visit. Hehe biggrin.gif
Some other stuff like lanyard, aventador cap, shirt and etc. bought at the store are not shown here as well. Haha

Will post up pics of my experience of the visit there including a 15 minutes drive of a white LP570-4 when I'm free. Hehe biggrin.gif

Never buy from online store which are not popular. There are many online store just had to be careful!

Jack Hoe: Are those from ebay or online seller?

Here's my damage I experienced early this month! Replacement received but still have to involved shipping cost, this is due to local handling! Sometime POS MALAYSIA really f*** up!

But purchasing online you cant avoid is:-

1. Custom duty
2. Damaged box
3. Damaged models

Even my buildmclaren subscription punya box pun arrived ini macam crumpled. So it's our local people handling problem lah!

Found this R34 in ebay, the price is ridiculous!!

The body gap and quality looks like the older version instead of the upgraded version loh.
Looking at the body colour. Don quite look like jade or nur color loh. Look like silver under yellow light.

I got one dark silver from ebay. But has no certificate loh.

I'm running out of space now! My display cabinet. My storage cabinet. And there are somemore cars coming in! An hour ago just ordered one from ebay somemore.

So I start to arrange the car in more boring position, to cramp them in within the space. And putting smaller boxes in bigger box according to model. doh.gif vmad.gif

Hey guys. Have I share this before?

I recently opened a 3S Showroom, specialized in Nissan Skyline R34. Hehe

My workshop, there's a huge Skyline walldrop. Hehehe
And the best thing is, beside servicing and diagnostic, there are various bumpers, hood and kits available that you can convert your normal GTR to Z-Tune, or convert your Z-Tune to normal GTR. :-p

And I sell cars too, specialized in Nissan Skyline R34 only lah. Available in various sizes, for the thin and fat. Hahaha. (Finally acquired a 2nd unit of Hotworks, from HK)

Nice garage diorama you got there, Edwardc. Those bumpers and bonnets, I guess they came from the plastic kits?

Btw, where's all the workers in your shop? *grin*

You know this Hotworks 1/24 Skyline that you can swap bumpers? The bonnet is metal punya though. tongue.gif

Ah it's hard to hire good people nowadays. I one leg kick. Hahaha
