“We are already receiving such enquiry from all over the world to suggest that this will be a record result come auction day,” said Mr. Lee Hames, Chief Operations Officer for Lloyds Auctions.
“It is speculated that only 28 still exist and we’ve had enquiry from Europe, Russia and North America so who knows where it will end up but hopefully an Australian bidder keeps it on Australian soil,” continued Mr. Hames.
The Lamborghini GTR was based off the Diablo GT one of the most powerful produced in the Lamborghini Supertrophy racing series.
Team Lamborghini Australia Race Driver Peter Hackett commented “The reason this car is so special not only is its exclusivity 1 of 30 ever made but this particular car was one of the most successful race cars ever to race in Australia.”
